When he was first diagnosed with schizophrenia at 19, I spent days crying. It's just a very difficult situation considering my mental issues as well. I think I'll try the bipolar site since I have that too. Thanks for the information. [emoji4]

Hi orange, i’m rarely around but I saw you’re having cognitive issues with bipolar/psychosis. For me what worked was omega 3. My favorite is an algae omega 3 from Nordic naturals.
Also regarding your son I’m sorry he gets violent but most of us relate to being out of control with psychosis but in a non violent way. What might help is if you talk about you and your experience rather than him. Most of us here are higher functioning and can’t relate to him but possibly can relate to you. I have bipolar/psychosis and found more similarities here than at the bipolar site. What we all have in common is the experience of psychosis.
I wish you luck with your son.
