Honestly this brought tears to.my eyes...

Wake up every 1am in the middle of the night
Be ready for a spiritual battle

Get alligator pepper.
Take Psalm 146 for a start, read Psalm 51 for forgiveness of sins, then move into action.
Chew three seedlings of the alligator pepper and read Psalm 70 and declare what you want and not. Sanctify the environment with the blood of Jesus and fire on
Next read Psalm 121. Do it for three days and on the third day read Isaiah 60 verse 1 to the end.

God be with you

I am from a family of three. I have two brothers. One older and the other younger than me so I'm the only girl in my family.

I grew up seeing my Mom mad.
By my teen age, I got admission into Nnamdi Azikiwe University alongside my elder brother who was to study Engineering. By the time I was in my finals, my brother was getting ready for IT. One day, his roommate sent for me, he said they couldn't sleep the night before because my brother was talking to himself. Before we knew what was happening, my brother was getting violent and so we took him home and he never got back to finish school.
I proceeded with my education and finished. Went for NYSC. While serving the nation, My Mom died. When I got home, she'd been buried.
But my brother was still mad.

I later got job, took my brother to a Psychiatric hospital and the doctor after examining him said he is Schizophrenic. He was asked to stay in the hospital.
I paid. He then stayed there for one month. When I came to visit him, he pleaded with me to take him home that he didn't like it there.

So I took him home. Every month, I buy drugs for him and he gets injected. He usually puts up a fight but with the help of my younger brother, neighbors and a certain nurse, he receives the injection, forcefully and against his will.
Often times, he pleads with me not to inject him, the very time I obliged him, he scattered things, didn't allow the neighborhood sleep, talked throughout some nights and wouldn't eat sometimes. He looked really sick then but with the injection, one will hardly know he's not normal.
I told him that I won't let him miss his injection ever again.

Now, on Monday, my younger brother woke up and was unusually quiet. He normally wakes up and begins to play music with his phone or he will turn to football channel and watch until I leave for work. But I didn't go to work on Monday and I noticed he was quiet, then I asked him why he's quiet. He didn't respond. After some hours, I asked my Dad if he feels he's okay, My Dad said that he wants to be quiet and that I should let him be.

Then, that night, around 4am, my brother began to talk. He was shouting and some of the things he said were not coherent. He talked out of point. I and my Dad, with my elder brother surrounded him and I couldn't help crying when my Dad was cautioning him to keep quiet and he refused.
Neighbours thought it was my elder brother's voice they'd heard that night but by the time they heard in the morning that it was my younger brother, they visited my Dad in the evening. By then, my brother was still talking and even burnt his clothes yesterday.
My Dad got a few guys to chain him because he was violent yesterday when I left the house.
I know the problem is spiritual. I have prayed, fasted for my elder brother and now this!
I'm so unhappy.

Can someone suggest a place I can take my two brothers to so they can be cured, please.



You guys should give him weed to chew or weed tea to drink,it will do some mental reset and put him in a calm state,he will begin to reason and act more calm instead of being aggressive.

[quote author=Mrskillz1 post=101455408]
Has your intelligence ever failed you?
Did you see me here all these years seeking for solution?
I went science way because I knew it's in the gene but then, I found that it's not the best because of the generations after and so I began to seek permanent solution.
Something must have triggered it because my mom's ancestors had no record of such.
So if it started along the line, something must have influenced it. This is why I'm out here looking for a fix. Not the kind of fix drugs do.
Something higher.

I'm intelligent my dear, but right now...I really do not know.[/quote




Can't imagine the state you are in and what you are going through.......so sorry sis.....will have your family in my prayers and i pray God will show you the way and provide a lasting solution......it's well with you.

Re: Help! My Younger Brother Is Going Mad by tangnewy: 5:33pm On May 08, 2021
I'd like to share my experience regarding your present situation. First, I believe that there may be some underlying mental conditions that you need to urgently attend to/ take care of before you lose another person. Go see a medical doctor who is also a Psychiatrist as the latter does not prescribe drugs. I also believe that spiritual forces use physical problems to taunt and torment.
Whenever I felt the urge to talk uncontrollably, I just refused to respond. I also quote Psalm105:15. Psalm 54 also worked for my mum. I read the bible as if my life depended on it. I went for deliverance several times at MFM prayer city. This is about your personal salvation and not some pastors praying for you or your folks. I engaged in midnight prayers aimed at destroying my ancestral stronghold. I also believe that battles like these have a long span. I remember one time I was going to get something at a store in Europe and suddenly I saw a creature. It had no nose. Immediately, we saw each other, it covered its face. I was not wise enough to request the fire on God to consume it. Another time, I felt this urge to commit suicide. It was so strong that only God delivered me. I was in the sitting room when I saw a masquerade. It disappeared immediately I saw it and the urge left me instantly. I have a question for those who feel it is strictly a medical condition: why did I not see Bill Gates, Elon Musk e.t.c? Why a masquerade. I was born in Lagos. I've never spent up to a month in the village and the last time I traveled to the village was more than thirty years ago.

Poster I have taken it upon myself to keep repeating this till you acknowledge you have heard me. Any doctor here will understand why the emphasis. People go to all manner of stupid places looking for pastors and prophets and herbalists to cure what your family is experiencing only to finally destroy any chances of full recovery. Simple.

Poster please go to a Federal Neuropsychiatrist hospital New Heaven Enugh. The earlier you go the better the prognosis. Please. You are in Onitsha, drive down to Federal Neuropsychiatrist Hospital New Heaven Enugu on Monday. Don't make the mistake of going with all these herbal and spiritual solutions.

These are very stupid ideas. That many people are saying it's spiritual doesn't make it true. A lot of people are ignorant and daft! I am pleading with you. That young man is NOT under any attack. Your family is NOT under any curse or attack. Just like diabetics run in some families, this condition is also familial. Please start early to save that young man.

Consultant Neuropsychiatrists will manage this case very well and your brother will be whatever he wants to be so long as he takes his medications. The earlier you commence treatment the better the management.

Please in God's name DO NOT patronize all these prophets, pastors, herbal nonsense. This is a normal case. It's familial. Positive history from your mother's side. It is NOT a curse. It is NOT an attack.

It is a purely medical condition

Beloved, I really feel your pains and thanks to God for your realization that this is not just ordinary. Many people suffer from things they know nothing about because of foundational problems that run through generations and blood lines, but I assure you God will make a way for you...As you've seen already, the medical followup had only been proven to be a temporary hold down as the problem still persists & worse still, crossing to different members of the family while money & family wellbeing continued to drain through the ages & not solution as earlier envisaged or needed now. So if this predicament is not traced & dealt with from its very root, brilliant & promising future generations especially the superstars of the family might also fall victim - God forbid please! But please ask your dad if he could recall any drama or disagreement or struggles from your mom's dad, mum (your grandma), whosoever that stood in their place or family members before, during or even after the marriage..?
But please if you don't mind, I will love to connect you to my Spiritual father Missionary' John-Sogbete Princewill. I'm certain God can use him to help you and your family out.
You can reach him directly on 08162337208.
God bless you.

I have a friend who was mad far back as 2007 who was taken to a church(undisclosed) and was healed by God(the spiritual way you castigated) .

Till date he's still whole, life is deeper than you know and see.

He did lab for her and prescribed some medications and we went pharmacy to get the drugs including injections and drip. Now she is fine and went back to finish her school as it stands now she's doing well no issues and sometimes we go to her school to visit her no sign that she run mad before.

Oya gather here people who have a mad relation o.
Op so sorry about this.l myself have a mad relation & l remember in 100level,a form we submitted to school asked us to tick if there is trace of madness in the family.
You are not alone.you might want to message me.l know how it is,growing up in an environment with a mad relation.The aunty also showed 1st sign of madness/psychosis/schizoprena full blown /pregnancy related giving birth to last born.Some women experience madness giving birth .She was already a graduate & out of NYSC & had other kids.so you yourself are at risk genetically especially if its a parent.
GOOD NEWS is that despite the relation having run mad like thrice in the space of 30years,crises period only occured whenever she stopped taking her drugs. & for each violent crises period,she was surmounted,chained & quickly rushed to the psychiatric hospital for patient admission.Each time,she stayed months there under doctor supervision & relatives visited until she was certified normal,nonviolent & discharged home with her drugs to take daily.
OP,she is on madness drugs for life.Thats how she stays normal to contribute her quota to society.She is a well adjusted civil servant & even raised all her children to university level as a widow.
There is hope for sufferers.especially if you dont run to unnecessary spiritual sources like someone rightly noted earlier.That is sure to worsen the problem to medically inassistable.
My advice get the relations quickly to reputable psychiatric doctors in "psychiatric hospitals" like The one in Uselu,Benin; Federal Neuropsychiatrist hospital New Heaven Enugu,etc .& get them on drugs daily.Even diabetes & full blown hypertensive patient are classified as terminally ill patients on drugs for life.so nothing strange about that here.A diabetic relation of mine diagnosed in his twenties,took lnsulin injections daily for over 40years until the day he died.
I would love to see your ill siblings medically supported & assisted terminally,and see them going back to university to complete their degrees.
Even mentally ill patients can be useful to society if they get proper medical assistance.You can pray for them while they are at the psychiatric hospital & pray for them to respond to drugs!!!. Avoid spiritualist at all cost.Someone l know was sent to an early grave few weeks after getting a spiritualist's help.This is a medical problem.lf its spiritual,The schizoprena illl patient,wont respond to schizoprena drugs.
My prayer is that your mentally ill relations respond to medical support.& dont forget l have a relation with full blown psychosis who takes the drug daily for life & is well adjusted to society as a civil servant.God Be With you as you seek the medical help needed in time.
Sending Love and light.

This looks like it is genetic/hereditary.
I dont think it started with your Mum.
Look through your mothers family history for siblings, parents, grandparents, aunts who had same condition.
This is not spiritual. The earlier you find medical help for your siblings, the better.
Also look into getting a caregiver. Someone qualified who will administer their medications and take care of them.
Please don't go running around spiritual houses. They will confuse you, they will drain your pockets and you will get no results.

It's like you want your brothers to go COMPLETELY MAD abi??

You already have proof that medications work to an extent on your younger brother abi? Which other solution do you seek alert from what works already??!

The moment you carry that man into a spiritual home is the moment his madness will go into gear 4.

And deep down inside you, you already know the source of the problem. IT IS HEREDITARY! A.K.A in your blood.

Hello!! You mean to say you went through school and the words 'genetics' never sunk into your head?!

....

You see religion and superstition is really killing African growth. How can a fully grown university educated man seek health solutions from any other place outside a health facility??

And before u start quoting me, just know I also have a cousin who is mentally unstable and suffers from schizophrenia too.

My neighbor had a burst vein in his head from High BP complications and his illiterate mom rushed him to a spiritual home where he went into coma during their spiritual razzmatazz.

Before her head correct it's too late. Nigga was DOA by the time they got to the hospital.

In fact, I believe any religious home that takes on the role of a healthcare provider should be sued and probably even shut down.

...

Here is how the scientific process works:

- You encounter a problem.
- You make guesses/assumptions to what the solution could be & ask questions to the cause of the prob.
- You make guesses using the answers you got. Called a hypothesis. This guess should be something testable. Meaning anyone can replicate the tests.
- Make a prediction from the answers you get
- Now you run some tests on that hypothesis (usually trial and errors while noting what works)
- You come up with more hypothesis
- You know what works to an extent (in your case, drugs) which leads you to making a clearer prediction.

- you test again till you come up with a theory of how to go about such issues in future...

....


Now, over the thousands of years mankind and modern humans have literally done almost all these testing for us and we only have to improve on it. But NO! Not an African man.

An African man will encounter a problem and instead of following the scientific step, he will immediately say to himself, "I need to talk to God about this" or worse, "it looks spiritual. I can't do anything about it if God doesn't do anything about it"

... And just in that moment, all the creative ideas and potential discoveries that could have been made will be cut short!

.....


You see, when we cry over the dangers of superstition in Africa and how it is underdeveloping us Christians and other religious folks will rather put the devil on you by calling Atheist or Apethists (people who don't care about deities) devil worshipers than see reasons with us.

I mean, just imagine what an adult who passed through the 4 walls of a classroom is saying. It's deeper than just getting school knowledge and I don't blame anyone because it is a result of hundreds of years of torture and slavery by the white people who brought on this scam called religion to us

(Don't mistake religion for spirituality or spiritism)

Africans pls plssss stop bowing to the ducking skies and learn to use your heads

The damaging effects of religion is not just found in our healthcare system. It's everywhere. Most especially in our minds. Slavery ducked us up real good. But then we keep ducking ourselves everyday by choosing to remain in the slavery

It's like what Kanye West said in an interview on TMZ that went viral. "400 years of slavery seemed like a choice"

Sorry I'm coming off as harsh but pls I beg you in the name of anything you believe in, DO NOT STEP ONE FOOT into ANY religious home. Well, except you want to dump your bro there for the worse.

And the funny thing is this:

When you let a super-religious person in on the TRUTH about their bullshit they'll always go through these stages:

1. Denial or Ridicule (they deny it or Ridicule it/you)

2. Rejection [they reject it entirely and will become violent towards the source of the information (you) ]

3. Acceptance (they finally begin to see reason)

Which explains why I don't like having a religious convo with anyone. I just listen and nod or zone you off.

And the reason is because I hate being the bearer of bad news. And I hate being at the receiving end of the 3 stages of accepting the truth I listed above.

It's also one of the reasons why the bearer of bad news in the olden days were usually put to death by the King.

Anyone who loses a loved one also passes through those 3 stages before accepting the truth.

First, you ridicule the info.
Then you react violent to oppose it.
Later, acceptance dwells in.

It also explains why most superstitious folks HATE atheist (or rather dispise the people/persons who first told them God don't exist)

And another reason is because it goes against everything you've ever known from birth. In other words, the person is saying you're stewpid.

And no one likes being stewpid

This looks like it is genetic/hereditary.
I dont think it started with your Mum.
Look through your mothers family history for siblings, parents, grandparents, aunts who had same condition.
This is not spiritual. The earlier you find medical help for your siblings, the better.
Also look into getting a caregiver. Someone qualified who will administer their medications and take care of them.
Please don't go running around spiritual houses. They will confuse you, they will drain your pockets and you will get no results.

Thanks woman

Please my sister, your problem is not spiritual okay? There is clearly something in your family genes that causes this problem. Please save yourself the time, energy and money that "spiritualists" would take from you without giving any solution. Please seek medical help.

I served with someone, Kingsley in Bayelsa state some years back, he's schizophrenic too, had all of this symptoms, his roommate then, Jeremiah was able to control him throughout the period of service, I'll reach out to Jerry now to see how you can deal with it.

Send me a private message.

Exactly what I just said in my comment. The dad knows something from the way he's calm about the whole thing. It's not just genetical like she's claiming. I mean, what man would sit comfortably and watch his household being consumed in madness and not seek for solution?
I'm not saying he has a hand in it but he prolly knows something nobody knows.
Nawa oo, you people should stop this kind of insinuation. If you have never experienced this kind of things it's better you don't say anything. How did you know he is sitting comfortably and watching his family go mad. I repeat don't make insinuations in this kind of matter if you have never been there.
