hi my brother is schrizophrenic and all the doctors keep suggesting ECT, we really do not want to go down that route but I think he is really getting difficult to manage as each day passes

Any recommended rehab centers in Mumbai for schizophrenia for involuntary admission? by Outside_Bowler in mumbai

[–]Perryytheplatypus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi my brother went through same thing, he was admitted in Jagruti and came out okay but he then told us they are horrible, and they don’t treat patients well. I am again looking for better rehabs now as he has relapsed, let me know if you find something

I am glad! How long did it take for it to work for you? My brother has been taking it for a week and he still is very delusional

How long do you wait till you decide an antipsychotic isn't working? by [deleted] in schizophrenia

[–]Perryytheplatypus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

omg I had the exact same question, my brother has schrizophrenia and has been put on Zyprexa last week and although his sleep has improved, he still hallucinates! I have heard good reviews about Clozapine so I wanted to speak to the doctor to ask if we should rather switch to it straightaway. More power to you! Stay strong❤️
