Schizophrenia Diaries

I live with my girlfriend and her mother has schizophrenia. It must be the worst case in the history of all mankind.

She screams profanities at the top of her lungs at least 15-20 hrs. out of each day. Saying that people in the movies are doing all these things to her. 99% of the time, none of it makes any sense. She even says I have done things to her and that im with all the people that are against her and hurting her. Which of coarse im not.

It is impossible to communicate with her in any way. I’ve tried to talk to her and understand for almost 6 months now, the more I tried to help the worse it got. She cusses me out she says she wants to kill me. I feel like a prisoner in my own home. She bangs on doors and stabs the walls and doors with knives. She throws and breaks things in the house. She calls the police and businesses just to cuss them out.

She also terrorizes the managment and the children in the building, and nothing satifies her. Most of the family won’t and can’t deal with her, but refuse to put her in a mental institution. She wont take any medication. At times it seems like an act, and at others it appears ginuine but shes been doing it so long it’s almost natural.

In her mind everything is related to something that has to do with her.
