brother gone crazy

[austinrealtor]

I dont post here much, but I dont know where else to turn....

My 19 year old brother has gone crazy. He claims to have seen God and other hallucinations and talks to himself.

This happened with the past week. Docs say he is stuck in his mind--almost like an acid trip gone bad. But he didn't do illegal drugs.

Today, docs wanted to committ him.

any prayers would be appreciated.

Prayers for your brother.
He could have something treatable and commiting would be best for him and those who love him.
Not long ago a FSU football player was diagnosed with Lyme disease , he was disoriented and such.

Prayers for your brother and your family. Hopefully this is somthing physical that can be diagnosed and successfully treated.

Your brother will remain in my prayers. I pray that doctors will find that this is treatable and that your brother will recover.

Prayers for a successful diagnosis and treatment to allow your brother to return to normal.

You and your brother are in my prayers. This is a very difficult thing. I hate to even bring up this possibility, but I've lost a fraternity brother and great friend to similar symptoms. Sometime after school, he started hearing God tell him what to do. Drive to Kentucky, send out vicious emails to all of us, break up with his girlfriend, ask her to marry him...ect. About a month ago, he actually called one of us and impersonated God.

I am having a very difficult time with this as well. If you would like, I would love to talk to you about what his parents have tried, and how we have tried to help. Maybe you can get something out of this.

I know that this isn't what you wanted to read, and I pray it isn't the same, but maybe I can help.
