    Lost my mother and 2 of my 3 brothers to paranoid schizophrenia. I was the oldest child. My mother was 14 when I was born and she was a raging paranoid schizophrenic by the time she was 19. I’m 72 now. My remaining brother is finally maturing into an adult at 65 years old. My sister is chronically ill and severely depressed. I had a breakdown at 45 and was on disability for 20 years. I was on meds and in therapy every month, all that time. I weaned myself off all the meds about 4 years ago. I was the only one who was able to survive our childhood.

    The music makes this unwatchable, plus looking away from the camera, plus does social health care exist in NZ ? That way the mother would have been able to stabilise. The brother too, not many stay in long term anymore. Cannabis can be lethal in connection to psychosis, I’ve seen it happen. Yet he used it even though he has a genetic predisposition to it. FN stupid or something.

    Weird I found this today. My mum and both of my brothers had schizophrenia. I just found out this week my younger brother died from heart failure in his flat in January but he wasn't found until March and the council only found his son through Facebook to let him know on Monday. I hadn't seen my brother for 35 years, his choice not mine. We didn't have a fall out, always got on when we were together, I took care of him while he was growing up because mum wasn't able to. Mum had paranoid schizophrenia which made her look for all sorts of strange things she believed would cure her. Including having all her teeth taken out. My elder brother had delusions of grandeur and was fine with anyone who went along with his theories but was vile to anyone who didn't. He died from bowel cancer 4 years ago. I hadn't seen him for 25 years. So I am the only one left, which I am finding strange to get my head around at the moment. Thank you for being brave enough to share your story.

    At least your mom still loved you….hugged you. My mothers been mentally gone for about 15 years. Hasn’t ever called me to wish happy birthday, doesn’t even know her grandchildren. I think what makes it worse overall is the fact that she did love me once a lot, we had good laugh, I had a good childhood. God knows I wish I could just go back to when she was sane and herself. I’m reminded everyday seeing mothers all over giving their children affection, something I will never get again. I’ve always felt lost since, and hurt. But I also love my mother so much.

      My brother was exactly the same bro. He passed away before I was able to learn the things you're asking. But the one thing I know about my brother now, is that he wasn't depressed or suicidal. He was stubborn. He just wanted to live his life the way he wanted. His passing was due to an asthma attacked which triggered a heart attack. My mother also has Schizophrenia. She's been in and out of the institution a number of times. She takes her medication and thats the only thing that gives her momentary peace. I'm sorry I cant help. I understand how hard it is to deal with. One thing I do to make life better, is try to enjoy the small moments when ever possible.

I forgot to just be his brother. Eventually he ignored me too. I guess he was tired of the same shitty conversations? Idk. Hang in there my dude. I still have depression but things get better.

      Would you be able to go to your doctor or hospital with your brother? They will assess him and prescribe anti psychotic medication which has improved so much. If your brother won’t go to a doctor you could contact his doctor and explain the situation. Your brother is extremely unwell and is at risk of suicide. If he is taking drugs or drinking the situation is even worse. My brother would relapse every so often as he stopped his daily medication so the local community nurse would visit him at home every 3 weeks to inject anti psychotic medication. My brother used to complain that the injection was painful as it was given in the buttock muscle for slow release. Many people with this horrible illness can work etc.

    I love all that you have posted! It's real, from the heart - things I value in life. Having family members who have and do suffer with depression, at varying levels, the more I learn, TRY to understand, it all helps. I can't fix it, wish that I could! but it's a long journey, hour at a time, week at a time. Find your passion in life, take the time to find the real you. The more people that are open and honest about Depression/Mental illlness the more lives are helped.
