Thanks for your response Spiritual Emergency
I have been slowly reading your posts like Hope etc.
I will slowly take in the info with many reads.
I'm in Sydney Australia
my son is in Queensland Australia.
Some parts of psychiatric care here resembles
a catch 22 situation.

Well the time he went into p.hosp
from living on the beach for 3 weeks
his phychosis was telling him that food
wasn't necessary for life
he lay in front of a womens toilet block
with his eyes open 24/7 he did drink water
from the toilets at least.
when me and his dad eventually
found him we had food and he thought
we were trying to do something wrong.
He is not actually anorexic or anything
Another time he lay with his head
inside a computer 24/7 and attacked me
when I tried to disconnect the power to
computer(I thought for safety)
He hasn't been very coherent for over
a year.
He appreciates his uncle who is also schizophrenic.
the rest I"m not so sure.
