My brother in law is 24 and diagnosed with schizophrenia a year ago after trying to pluck his eye out. "If your right eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and cast it away" taken literally. He is now on the roller coaster of medication changes, signing up for disability, therapy, trying to maintain a sleep schedule, and trying to hold a low stress job. He is the third of 8 children, and his parents don't always know how to help him. He was my husbands best friend until the schizophrenia seemed to take a part of him away. We really want the best for him and we want to be able to do anything that he needs. I just don't really know what that is. If someone could give us some insight, I'd really appreciate it. What's the best thing we can do for him? Anything we should know or understand? I've read several books on schizophrenia and also spoken to a few individuals who have struggled with schizophrenia but I still feel like I don't quite understand what's going on in his head or his heart, and I still don't really know what my husband and I should be doing for him.
