[Lexicon78]

My bf has schizophrenia. Even though I am pretty well-read on his condition, I find it hard sometimes to interact with him. Often I don't know what to expect from him. His delusions are very crippling at times. He once thought everyone at the Dairy Queen was an undercover cop, and he proceeded to explain that most of them were all corrupt cops. Things like this really disable him. I try to comfort him into thinking he is safe with me, but it doesn't always work.

He often gets tics when he's thinking about something that troubles him. I'm in the process of getting used to this behavior but it isn't easy.
