I don't really talk much about my past or my family, but I wanted to tell you about my brother who is a Schizophrenic.
He was diagnosed at the age of 18 and is now 54, I remember before he was diagnosed he was perfectly fine, He would go the Gym, Jogging and swimming then one day I remember my mum trying to wake him up for work but he kind of looked like he was in a trance. He was saying that spiders were all over the bedroom and were going to attack him but of course nothing was there, My mum called my GP back then the doctor would visit you at home, GP knew right away that something was not right so he admitted my brother to hospital and was sectioned.
Later found out is that before he became unwell he went to see Billy Graham but not quite sure what Billy said but it led to my brothers breakdown.
Fast forward to this present day, my brother has been sectioned numerous times and is in a care home because he can't walk and uses a wheelchair.
I know it's my brothers illness but he can be quite violent and has attacked staff and even myself, I could say a lot more but I won't because some of it is very upsetting.
