Schizophrenia Support Group

Read all you can and good luck. That's about all I can tell you. It's a lot up to him but he has a good chance I believe with you keeping on loving him. My heart is with both of you.

You can find some information at Schizophrenia.com or just search for schizophrenia on the web. Millions of people are living with mental illness everyday. It's not the end of the road. Best wishes to you.

I know its not the end of the road but I am not so sure my husband believes it...its like he is so embarassed about his illness, I believe its why he has left me so many times in the past...I just feel so alone right now....

Hi there, I have had schizophrenia all my life. There are many possible reason for the illness and trying to find a single solution is near impossible ( note I said near impossible) Every single sufferer is different and its like a finger print.. In saying that you need to establish a close bond with him and totally support your husband in every respect. Yes! it not going to be a easy ride for you and you will need some sort of support yourself. Take each step slowly and try to understand and comprehend every word he says to you. Be a good listener and try not to put any pressure on him what so ever as he will look at you in a totally different manner. He will be totally paranoid and may think you are out to get him. I dont know the full story or history but i pray you can hold it together for your own sanity. Phillip

He already thinks I am out to get him, yet I have always been the one to back him up even when I felt what he was doing was wrong.....I do support him in more ways than one....and I do it because I love him and always wil no matter what
