Bro follow this link and join the prayer and if possible live sessions too. Let your sister hear too. It is no joke, countless people have been healed of mental health issues. Don't matter if you believe or not. Just try!

See a psychiatrist immediately
I’m a a Christian and I’m telling you the solution is available already. See a doctor before it worsens and becomes difficult to reverse


Some things to also look out for
1. See a doctor/psychiatrist TODAY!!!
2. Family history of mental illness
3. Recent stressful event
4. Diseases like HIV
5. Hard drugs intake
6. Go to a teaching hospital

Interesting stuff. Am currently rotating through pyschiatry so I can relate. Please try to visit a psychiatry hospital as soon as possible. Unfortunately many people have stigmatized "mental illness" when actually it's just some neurotransmitters in the brain malfunctioning. When you get to the hospital, you'll asked a whole of questions (they like to talk in that department grin) so be prepared, they would also do mental state examination for her which is very important. From the symptoms you described, the top differentials would be a mood disorder (depression and it's like) or pyschosis (schizophrenia and it's like). Diagnosis of psychosis would depend on if she has hallucinations (visual/auditory/tactile etc) or delusions. She may be asked to do some basic tests, her past psychiatry history is also important and also family history and the likes. Treatment for most mental illnesses is usually biopsychosocial and multidisciplinary depending on the underlying cause. I hope she gets well soon, my prayers are with her but seek treatment on time before it gets worse.

She hasn't achieved what she expected at her age and was probably thinking..so she became frustrated n depressed. It's three years now. No head way
Electrotherapy is the best way to deal with this
Unfortunately I don't know if it is done In Nigeria

She's a Minor and an Introvert. Always indoors. Thanks for your input.
Ur father might be aware of her predicament hence his reluctant to find solution immediately. Just saying though.
Observ his behavior closely!

Good Day Dear Nairaland Family,

My Sister started behaving weirdly last few Weeks. She laughs alone, talks alone and is sometimes restless especially at Night.

Though she always responds well and correctly when engaged. I've asked her and she told me she doesn't know when that happens and it's unintentional.

I, on my part have tried talking to my Dad to take her to a Mental Health Expert, my Dad seems to believe it is spiritual attack instead.
Please, I need Medical practitioners in the house to help tell me what she's probably suffering from so I can Confidently convince my Dad.

Can you please help move this to front page?

Call or WhatsApp me on 0.8.1.5.1.3.8.9.9.1.5. She needs to practice CBT. Cognitive therapy and it’s something y’all can do at home. Thank God family is there to support her. If you go give one fake pastor money na chop him go chop am. A lot of people in Nigeria including our parents, celebrities with disorders and we know ntn about it. Trust me I am well versed in this. Your write up isn’t so clear on her behavior which I will need more insight in. Will love to hear from you. Check my YouTube channel for what I do

Re: Help!!! My Sister Is Having A Mental Health Challenge by SeriouslySense(m): 7:05pm On Sep 28, 2022
It would be helpful, to note what she says, when she is alone, you can help her record it, and or note it and tell her what she was saying, if that's possible, maybe she might recall why she was speaking alone.


The problem is she does not recall what she says, and you say she is an introvert and spends time by herself, so seems her mind is creating a companion for her to play with, by chatting alone and even laughing alone, her mind has become her friend, and i wonder how rich the conversation is.

maybe not a serious issue, since she is young and it may just be a coping mechanism because She is always alone, and she is not aware, if what she is talking about, seems like stories other young ones would say to friends, might be a coping mechanism.

So She may need to have more friends, or helpful friends of her age, or she may need to do something that occupies her time, or learning something to make her time more interesting. smiley smiley smiley

It is just a sign that she is always alone, isolated and not stimulated mentally and she needs to keep growing in mind, and is searching for new Information or things that it would like to do, or know, or discover.

Are you close to your sister, do you know what she wants to be, what she wants to learn or see, or do, what does she like. I hope she is not always isolated and alone sad sad

SultanOfPuna:

If she is hearing voices in her head
That is a sure sign of Possession by earthbound spirits.
If she is not hearing voices then you can refer her to mental clinic

But if she is hearing voices that tell her to do certain things. Then no amount of medical science will solve it

So Find out if she is hearing voices then give me feedback
Then i can tell you how to cast those earthbound spirits.

I have been possessed many times by both good spirits and earthbound spirits. So i know the difference b/w the good ones and dark ones.
And i know how to make the dark ones run away from me ( well there are some stubborn ones that take more time to leave)
The most important thing is "does she hear voices in her head?"
That's the only way I can help

And your name is SultanOfPuna!

How come psychiatric drugs and treatment can cure voices?

This OP no well oo.

You suppose carry your sister go health centre, you are seeking for medical practitioner advice online.

So if you are advised to not take your sister to hospital you won't right? You will be basing your thinking on spiritual attack? The lord is your shepherd.

In this context, your lived experience does not qualify you as a "specialist". In the mental health field as that is what the subject is on, for you to be addressed as a specialist, there must be extensive academic records, professional certifications gain through trainings and also board exams, clinical experience etc.........illiteracy in this context, is not knowing what you are not. cheesy
