Play Qur'an for her to listen and please I'm not joking. Get back to me.
We have been doing this. I have Sudais, Minshari, Abdulbasit, Abdullahi abba etc recitations app in my phone and she has been listening to it. Infact, she's almost mrmorized Sudais' Al Qunuts but still, she still laugh and talks alone.

Run a test for typhoid fever, it could be the cause and if positive, treat her well
Exactly what we did First but after observing stagnation in her condition, my Dad think it's spiritual

Is she a quiet and intelligent person?
I’m trying to get an angle on her personality type.
Yes, she's quiet and I wouldn't call her 'dull'

It's a health issue. Visit a physician at the clinic.

It's not a spiritual issue. Don't let anyone deceive you.
Thank you Sir

Convince your Dad to take her to the mental health expert, and if he insists is spiritual, he should start doing something about it, before it gets late
He's doing things his own way with no noticeable improvement

They will place her on drugs she will take till she lives. Which will complicate the issues more.
She needs counseling, don’t allow her take any drugs.
Thanks. But she's not getting any better

As already popularly suggested, take her to psychiatric hospital. Could have been due to many things; schizophrenia, tendencies, and the likes. But please rule out spiritual stuffs for now. Standard hospital please.

My sympathies are with your family.

Too many insensitive and unintelligent people on this thread.
People saying heartbreak, oraimo cord, yahoo boyfriend,...

It's frustrating.

It always doesn't have to be about trying too hard to make joke na. Have some iota of sense na. Is it that hard?
Thank You Sir

Chaiiii

In as much as talking to oneself isn't something to be worried about cos I do too, Too much of it is something you should be worried about... The underlying causes could be depression or bipolar issue

Did you notice any new changes in her habit, I.e taking substances

How old is she?
She doesn't take anything. She's 16. She is very reserved and quiet before this...

Romanoff:
Could be depression due to heartbreak.

I've seen heartbreak make some ladies lose it.

First take her to a tertiary level hospital to be examined by a doctor, she'd be referred to a psychologist or a psychiatrist depending on her symptoms.
She's a Minor and an Introvert. Always indoors. Thanks for your input.

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?
