So sorry.
There aren't many people who come to this 'board'.
I'd suggest posting on Social, or Psychology.
I'm so sorry this has happened to you.
A year ago January, my son was hospitalized for full-blown psychosis for a month. It was a direct result of using heavy-duty drugs.
He was subsequently diagnosed as schizophrenic.
We are VERY fortunate in that here in Ontario, Canada, the Canadian Mental Health Association has a program called HOPE - Helping Overcome Psychosis Early. It has been a total life saver for me & wonderfully supportive for my son & our family.
If you have a local mental health organization, contact them. Also, EPI means Early Psychosis Intervention. I'd strongly suggest you try to see if there's such a group locally.
Best of luck to you.
Once again, do try posting on the other sites!!!
:-) Kath
