[QUOTE="Christoph1945, post: 4097056, member: 42426"] Very often the individual will be noticeably more talkative or perhaps more insular and less talkative. Knowing the person and their day to day norms is of great assistance in spotting the onset of a problem and "maybe" avoiding them sliding in deeper, or getting them to professional support. Perhaps it is the deep introspection of the individual that cuts them off from others and makes it all that more difficult for them to appreciate those around them. Looking back (reluctantly) and recalling some of my darkest days I can remember the almost total loss of reality. Already having problems with depression/anxiety, the situation was exacerbated by drug withdrawal symptoms when a wrongly prescribed drug was withdrawn. A total living nightmare took over every moment. They, whoever they were, were going to steal my brain, nail me to the church floor, or poison me. Things only eased when my mind crashed and like exploding stars in my scull memory bade me goodbye. I had been readmitted to the mental hospital and tucked up safe and sound in bed. Having once read of people who had suffered similar symptoms to my present state, I spent the dark hours of the night repeating to my self, my name, address, and the names of my wife and children. Upon waking the next morning and telling a nurse of my symptoms that night, she asked me if I knew who I was.................I said of course I did but just didn't realize what I "had" forgotten. In today's world there is far greater understanding of mental issues and far more support agencies to lend a listening ear and direction to those in need. Our words have the power to both heal and to wound, use them wisely but above all listen closely and today you may save a life. Even what we say to our selves can be injurious to our psyches. Rob............no one to help with the ragwort? [/QUOTE]
