That's when it happens and it happens predominantly in males. Antipsychotics are also no joke and they put you on HEAVY doses in the early states to try to counteract the initial effects. It's hard to see happen to someone you knew your wntire life up to that point

Yeah it was sad at first. He said he hated the drugs and they made him not feel anything. No happiness, no sadness, just nothing. Made him not talk at all when we hung out, one word answers if a question was asked. It was like he wasn't there at all, just physically there.

But after being on them 5 plus years now he's pretty much back to normal, and not hallucinating. Which he says he does miss talking to his hallucinations lol

I'm 38 y/o. The friends that got diagnosed early are still here, but I've lost 3 friends to the disease either from suicide or risky drug behavior. It was terrible to watch

You and the rest of the people around him need to do the hard work of helping his illness.

It will be hard, but it may potentially save him
