my loved one is schiz. i am his caregiver. he recently moved in with me after being in an alf. i have so-o-o many questions and few, few answers. i want to be as supportive as one can be but don't even know where to start. i've posted in "caregivers" now and before and hardly got a reply. aren't there more people interested in understanding this MI?
are any of you with schizophrenia here at pc able to help me understand about the voices, the depression, your meds, and how i can best communicate with my loved one? i would so appreciate your input. those of u with this MI are such a good resource for me if you'd kindly reply to my post.
all posts are welcomed because it will educate me with what all of you may already know. i won't even begin asking questions cause i need to learn so much to help this gentle man.
thank you for reading my post.
