[quote=Anonymous]My youngest brother didn't exhibit any signs of schizophrenia until he was in college. My parents had good insurance, lived in Ffx Cnty, were relentless advocates and still struggled to find my brother help. He was the youngest of 4 and we had a pretty good/normal suburban upbringing ie dad worked a regular job, mom was a SAHM, no abuse, no insecurity etc. During one medication change he pulled a carving knife on my parents, during another he cracked his head through a shower glass door, and during another got into a car crash (keys had been taken/hidden, brother basically tore the house apart to locate) that landed him in a coma for 8 weeks and could have easily killed someone else. My point is it can happen to anyone and the "system" is not set up to actually provide long term help to people who have resources. Heaven help those who don't.[/quote]
