My mother was diagnosed with her mental disorder when I was ten years old but I started to notice things when I was about seven I am 21 years old now and I am still struggling with how to live with my mother and her condition she refuses to got to the hospital and there is nothing we can really do until she harms someone or herself. I want to help those and family members of people who are diagnosed with schizophrenia. Families should be able to help members of their family who have discontinued their medication. There should be a system where you don't have to put yourself or someone else in harms way in order for that person to get help and get the evaluation they need. Loved ones like mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers and even children that are around that significant other should be able to seek help for them. Especially if they are desperately in need of assistance and are trying to get that specific person back onto their medication. Someone or a family member of that person diagnosed with Schizophrenia should have the resources to assist them. There should not have to be close calls for anyone. Make a change.
