How do you convice your schizophrenic buddy to take his medication?

I have a friend who is highly Schizophrenic and refuses to take his meds. I’m not one of those people that like to control people, but the dude thinks he’s a vampire whose fate is to drink the blood of a thousand humans and he’s already gone to jail over biting people in the neck before. What should I do?

Answer #1

You can’t make him take his meds, he has to want to take them. All you can really do is help guide him through life, help him make good decisions and tell him about all the advantages about taking medicine. If you need help, fun mail me, I’ve been on 3 different medicines and been to a psych ward basically lmao.

Answer #3

you can make him because if they refused then that is when you make them i have two uncles that are schizophrenic and one of them hardly takes his medicine and he acts crazy so yeah you can make them just don’t force them

Answer #4

praise him when he does, or pretend to start crying so he’ll feel bad and then do it. XD

Answer #5

Thax! I wanted to tell u how this particular bit of my life ended: I told him that he wouldn’t be so scared or agitated… or violent… if he took his meds. he busted me in the lip then cried for an hour straight, then he took his meds. I don’t really understand, but I guess the outcome is worth the confusion.
