Need advice for family member with mental illness, possibly schizophrenia

There are some topics on this but I decided to create my own thread because this is important.

I'm concerned that my cousin might have schizophrenia or at least an anxiety disorder and depression. He's 26 and this is when it can develop, correct? Is it a spectrum disorder or can someone have a very mild case of it? My cousin doesn't seem to be as bad as the mass shooters (most are harmless) but he has been telling me some troubling things about how he's about to snap and hurt someone or himself. He had a job and just got fired for getting in someone's face and threatening them. He seems to be paranoid and delusional as well. He thinks everyone is out to get him even though he's just being treated like everyone else. He also just got kicked out of his apartment and is in danger of becoming homeless. This is how most of the homeless people you see get there I guess. They either have drug and alcohol problems or are schizophrenic.

How is this diagnosed? If he gets a diagnoses that will help a lot. If he's just a dickhead then it needs to be approached in a different way. He lives in Colorado and they should take schizophrenic young men seriously based on the mass shootings so would it be wise to send him to their mental health services? Are there some questions I can ask him? He was told he had ADHD throughout his childhood and there seems to be some mental illness in his parents and other family members but no schizophrenia that I know of.

He worked for one of the pot businesses in Colorado and seemed to be self medicating by smoking every day and spending too much money on pot and not paying his bills. Chronic marijuana use can't be good for someone with a mental illness.

Obviously I could put him on a strict diet (gluten free, no dairy, etc) and Omega 3's, Vitamins, minerals, everything talked about here but you know how young people are, I doubt he would follow it unless someone puts the food directly in front of his face and makes sure he doesn't eat anything else. Any advice would be appreciated. I respect a lot of your opinions greatly.

Have him see a psychiatrist so he can get diagnosed properly, it sounds like schiz but it could also be bi polar or a mix of the 2 and it does work on a scale of severity. Either way it will be hard to reason with him if he is mentally ill since its hard to convince them that theyre in need of help. Lots of support sites online and even forums to help talk to someone you might think is schiz. The GF diet is good but thats one thing i never understood about the GAPS diet is how you can get someone who is incredibly ill to eat anything beneficial since most have trouble eating anyways.

ngb - Dental work could be a factor. Would suggest without knowing anything about him to try niacinamide/niacin therapy.

CS - how much are you into orthomolecular approach to neurotransmiter metabolism? Would you agree that all mental ilnesses come from the imbalanced metabolic occurences? I am wondering if, throughout orthomolecular research, if it was established that in 100% cases there is an underlying condition or it's really wide spread but not always happening?

Seems to me like, the metabolic factors like nutrition,intolerancies,allergies, heavy metals etc are almost always a functional background for the psychological aspect to be actually able to be born and stay active. What are your thoughts on the approach? I am familiar with the study about Vitamin C and 30/30 addict patients temporarily "cured". Are these states almost always linked to things like B-complex , C and other minerals/vitamin deficiencies and other conditions?

I am an integrative/orthomolecular practitioner, so yes I totally agree with what you're saying.

I believe a large part the neutransmitter problems are rooted in toxicity and also a deficiency of nutrients which product enzymes. The fetus absorbs a significant amount of heavy metals from the mother in the womb, so a lot of problems can develop early. Many of the problems especially occur with visits to the dentist who place mercury fillings/root canals.

Also, vaccination can also affect mental state as well. The glyphosate (herbicide) seems to play a strong role. I used to be puzzled over people who had neurological diseases with no apparent toxicity source until the pesticide/herbicide they were eating was in the food.

There is something called the "niacin test".

Whereby there is a vitamin B3 receptor problem. Schizophrenics can handle a very large dose of regular flush niacin without experiencing a flush. So, to be on the safe side of comfort, try taking 100 mg of niacin and continue doubling the dose until you get a flush. It if takes a 1,000 mg of more then there's a chance one has this condition.

So B3 receptors and schizophrenia. Is there any other direct link like this with depression and anxiety? I read about B's and C on the topic so far. For both treating and prevention.

Here's a hypothesis that I believe fits well within the probable etiology

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4215336/

Many people who have mood disorders/imbalances are riddled with parasites. Parasites are a hidden scourge and can cause many problems including schizophrenia.  

Your friend (and all people to be quite honest) need to start parasite cleansing ASAP.  One should do a parasite cleanse twice a year for life.  

Humaworm is one of the better parasite cleanses out there. Read everything on their website and have your friend get their adult parasite cleanse.

www.humaworm.com


Also check out anything by Dr. Klinghardt.  Check out Dr. Simon Yu's book "Accidental Cure".   Also check out stuff by Dr. Jennifer Daniels. Also three of these people have gotten incredible results with just parasite cleansing.


You also may not want to hear this. But have your friend look into urine therapy (drinking one's own urine).  Just type urine therapy into Amazon and see what you get. Check out the book... "Your Own Perfect Medicine - by Martha Christy" and "The Water of Life - by John Armstrong".  Don't sleep on this therapy.

Once your friend finishes their parasite cleanse, they should start taking probiotics.  Check out the book..."Probiotics: Protection Against Infection - by Case Adams"

Also check out the books..."Niacin: The Real Story - By Abram Hoffer" and "Orthomolecular Treatment for Schizophrenia - By Abram Hoffer".  

Look into Magnesium.  Dr. Mark Sircus (check out all books/website) has written a load on magenisum deficiency and its neurological implications.

Finally,have your friend look into Organic Sulfur. You can also call up Patrick McGean (the person who brought Organic Sulfur to market)...801-290-2013...ask him any questions you like. He's very approachable.

Good luck

Thanks for the tips. I think the first step is to get him to see a psychiatrist to see if he can get diagnosed with something. He doesn't have insurance so I'm hoping the state has some decent free mental health services. I live 1000 miles away so there is only so much I can do. I could put him on a diet and exercise plan and send him supplements but I doubt he would grasp the concept and just continue eating garbage and smoking weed and blaming everyone else for his problems. He's really on the verge of becoming homeless or going to jail for robbing someone I'm afraid.

DO not take any parasite cleaners... DO NOT DO IT.

It messed up my body...

You might wanna try something like a dr hulda clark device (called a zapper) that sends out pulses of electricity at certain frequencies that's supposed to kill parasites and viruses. If anything you just lose a bit of money on a useless device.

Just to strengthen the link between parasites and mood disorders/imbalances. Read this...

Welp, I just had to call the cops on him. I talked to him this morning and he sounded fine. He called me later and said he got kicked out of his place and wanted to attack the guys who did it. He then hung up on me and wouldn't answer his phone. Combine that with his past statements that he wanted to put a bullet in his head and I had to call the police. I honestly hope he gets arrested and can get some help somehow. I pray to god he doesn't have a gun, he's never talked about it so I don't think he does.

I'm the only person he's got I guess. I can't even get a hold of his mom or dad and no one else in my family stays in touch with him. Sucks.

@Hairhat,

I must ask, did you personally experience relief from a mood disorder when treating Parasites? I tested positive for toxoplasma gondi and others but suspect other sources of toxicity as well.

I have no mood disorder to begin with so I did not experience any relief with parasite cleansing.

I do know people with mood disorders and autstic kids who experienced tremendous improvement with parasite cleansing.

You may experience further benefit from taking digestive enzymes.

schizo is associated with high levels of dopamine, so getting him away from TV, computer, video games, masturbation/porn for some time would do wonders. that coupled with a good diet would probably avoid the problem. definitely kill marijuana if he is puffing it, any other drugs like drinking also can increase dopamine.

just saw he lived in colorado, chances are he is probably around it at least, it's so accessible there. make sure you try to do what you can to get him to quit, i guarantee you it is contributing to the problem (if he smokes)
