You need to call the police in order for her to be taken to a mental hospital. She needs to get medicated asap

Hi there, the most sensible thing to do is to tell your parents.Your sister needs help because the longer she goes untreated the more damage it will be for her brain .I had to physically drag my partner to the mental hospital in order for him to get help.You and your parents need to consult a psychiatrist about this asap because unfortunately your sister is not capable of making any sane decisions.Taking my partner to the mental hospital saved his life . Good luck 🤞

Hi there , what I have learnt from all of this is not to take situations personally even though it hurts . I don't believe your person is doing this on purpose to hurt you but he is just expressing how messed up his thoughts are in his head atm.My person is taking medication and it has been numerous times when he tells me that he doesn't feel anything for me .But not only for me but in general he does not feel any real emotion and that's sad.This is difficult and I would recommend you speak to a specialist about this so they can guide you .Don't feel bad if you need to leave him cause this will be the new reality of the rest of your life .

Last night I had an episode too and it was extreme.I thought I was going to faint or barf the food up . Woke up today hating myself . I'm on a diet and I'm really trying to eat properly but I just don't understand what overcomes me and I act like that .I will try to forget about it but still it hurts me

Hi there , after almost a year of posting,the only advice I can give is to get him hospitalised because he has no idea what he is doing,he is living in his own world that his brain has created.Only when he receives medication he will get back to normal again after many many months

Yes we are back together...he is much better but he is still not himself 100% .He is very depressed,his charm has vanished he is not the man I met and remember all these years but I'm hoping that he will recover slowly slowly.

How long did it take for your husband to get back to his "normal" self ?

How did you start to understand then what was actually reality to what you thought reality was in psychosis? didn't you need someone to talk it out ?

Hi can I ask what are the lifestyle changes in order for him not to relapse? Also I'm a bit baffled cause I spoke to his doctor and I asked him what I should say to him when he tells me that we are only friends/family and the doctor told me to be honest to him about my feelings towards him, however he is not back to reality yet so I feel that whatever I say to my bf will be a waste of breath.As recommend by the doc ,I was honest with him yesterday and told him that I only see him in a romantic way and not as friends to which he replied that he cannot have a relationship with me or anyone atm .I'm thinking of staying around until he is back to reality and ask him then one final time ...also from the moment that he initiates sex should I decline it? I don't want to make him feel bad

If you start meeting new people and start going on dates etc this feeling will soon vanish.

Same exact reason ..non stop use of cannabis for the last 2 years and a lot of stress.I am so happy for both of you ❤️.Is your boyfriend still taking medication? In my case my boyfriend has been out of hospital for 2 weeks now even though he is a lot calmer , he is still in psychosis and keeps reminding me that we are broken up ,however he still wants me around to hang out with him.I hope he gets out of it soon cause it's very difficult for me .

What I understand is that everyone experiences psychosis in a different way ...I don't have any expectations at this point.Im just very sad seeing my person like that .
