My son has schizophrenia; he believes he is being targeted by the outside forces. He believes a person by the name of Dr. John Hall in Texas and someone named Roger Tallis in California can help him. He refuses to believe he has a mental illness. How can I best help him? Also have you ever heard of these people before?
HELLO, Thanks for putting your query in ChatDoctorThe patients with schizophrenia does not have insight into their illness, so they refuse to accept that they have psychiatric illness. It will be best to get him admitted in psychiatry hospital for treatment. Once he is admitted psychiatrists have the number of options to treat him including oral medications, tasteless and odorless syrups, injectables, long acting injectables and ECT. Hope I have solved your query. In case you have further queried please don't hesitate to ask.
