I think I mentioned it before somewhere, but my uncle has paranoid schizophrenia. He took a while to diagnose because he's intelligent and always beat the tests. They finally were able to diagose it I think back in the late 90s (he would have been in his 30s).
Its so scary to watch, because his "episodes" for lack of a better term will come out of the clear blue sky and then go just as quickly. He was also doing drugs at the time, and when he got off of them, and started to calm down, and go to church more and sometimes take medictaion, he was ok. His triggers are extreme stress about something.
Its sad because I remember as a child I LOVED seeing him when he came home from the Marines. Then it became scary to see him pull up. He thinks the government has him under surveillance and is out to get him. He's tried to file lawsuits and all! Its a mess.
OMG, I almost forgot! My aunt and I stopped to ask this lady directions and she starts to go on about how the NSA is running experiments on her neighbors, giving them cancer through rays they shoot from the powerlines. She said they then tried to put her under surveillance through the color TV, but she found out and got a black and white one, which they can't use. And the reason the space shuttle Columbia blew up was because the NSA has a cap on the sky, and they forgot to open up the sky that day. to top that off she had on her "protective hat" that was a styrofoam thing covered in foil, topped with three ski hats, all help down with a head band. that keeps them from getting in her brain. Its was sad.
