[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your daughter sounds wonderful. Yes she needs boundaries and to know when to tell him she can't handle certain issues, but she doesn't need to stop being his friend altogether. I have a loved one with schizoaffective disorder (fully compliant with meds, and very kind). I'm so thankful for the friends who have stuck around. [/quote] +1 Close relative who is schizoaffective and they need human connections too. Establishing healthy boundaries is important, but it's not necessary to completely cut him out of her life at this point. The repeated sentiment that this person is a lost cause is just wrong. I wish my relative had received treatment earlier as we now know how vital the first year interventions after diagnosis are. [/quote]
