Moving in with a bi-polar/schizoaffective
    #14274090 - 04/11/11 06:29 PM (12 years, 9 months ago)

So this guy, who has been a friend of my brother and I, offered to let me room at his house for a reasonable price.

The house is awesome, the neighborhood is even more awesome, and the price is a steal.

The only problem is the guy has an extreme case of bi-polar, to the point where I would argue that he is schizo-affective.
When he is unmedicated, he becomes extremely manic, with episodes of intense depression and anger. On top of that, he has delusions of grandeur, to an extreme. He becomes convinced that two unrelated occurrences that are coincidental HAVE to have some true purpose/meaning.
He takes lithium, and his medicine doesn't seem to remain in his system over long periods, so he can become unstable within a few days time or less.

My main concerns is that I have a hobby of hoarding drugs. I'm worried about living somewhere with someone who is unstable. He has guns, he gets angry, and doesn't think 100% clearly when he is having an episode. I'm worried the cops could get called, and that it could bring attention to me. I don't want them finding my drugs basically.

On that same note, I have personally never encountered a problem with the guy. I'm an extremely stable person, and also an empath, so when he is intensely emotional I am capable of taking him 100% serious, and help him out of the place that he is in.
I feel like I could actually help him in the long run. Remind him when he is becoming erratic to take his medicine (which I do), and just being a calming presence around him that could possibly calm him in return.

There will also be another close friend of mine who is moving in. This other friend is someone who I would also consider a very stable person.

And on my last note:
If it came down to it, I could hide all of my "serious" drug stash in a ridiculous location that I create myself so that NO ONE is capable of locating it.
That would only be a reassurance in case shit did hit the fan, I wouldn't have to be worried about the cops finding anything more than a few pipes and some nugs.


So what are your guys thoughts? Have any of you lived with someone who is on the extreme end of the spectrum for bipolar?
I'm sure some of you on here ARE bipolar, so I'd also be interested to hear your thoughts as well.

Get him really stoned.
Roommates in general suck though. Schizoaffective or not. What's the alternative?

I think it'll be fine. I was diagnosed with schizophrenia and I am highly functioning most of the time. My diagnosis is bullshit.

So was mine. They also diagnosed me schizoaffective. :whatever:
If I had it their way I'd be on lithium and all that mind-bending shit too.
Pretty much everyone is bat shit crazy if you live with them for long enough.

He already smokes weed, and is cool with my drug hobby.

The alternative is to move into a shitty studio apartment, in a scary neighborhood.
Or keep living at my parents house and feeling like a fucking mooch, which I'll probably keep doing for at least a few more months, because I still need to save up to buy some equipment before my money gets tied down.

*Edit: Seems like most of you are against the idea. I need to re-emphasize:
"The house is awesome, the neighborhood is even more awesome, and the price is a steal."

The neighborhood is upper-middle class, with a pool and room for me to have a garden, along with room to hold all my music equipment.
I'd only be paying $400-$600, when it would usually cost me $800+ to stay somewhere of the same quality.

So the ONLY reason I'm iffy about moving is because the guy is unstable.
but the offer to move in is such a sweet deal, I'm very seriously considering it.
If I hadn't received this offer I would of been looking at some shoddy places.

Its not so much the schizophrenia part that would concern me, but the mixture of schizophrenia, extreme delusions of grandeur, manic episodes of anger, and GUNS.

He's not that aggressive. He's the kind of guy who would beat the shit out of someone for hitting a girl.
He's generally only violent when it's called for.

I'm more worried about him being manic with delusions of grandeur. I don't think he would ever attack me. I usually know how to handle aggressive people to avoid conflict.

Yes I have, and it was in a tiny dorm room. It did annoy me, but he was generally a clean person so I didn't mind toooo terribly much.
The worst part was that every day I had to sit and listen to him bitch his mom out over the phone about how much he hated the place, and that it was all her fault :bored:

The ironic thing about that is we actually wouldn't be able to :lol:
The guy is 350lb's 6'5". He used to be an all state wrestler in HS, and was starting linebacker for Southern Methodist University.

So if shit DID get out of hand, we would have to call some people for help.

I'm not worried about him getting aggressive with me. I'd be more worried about him getting aggressive with other people.

However, I also can't help but have the logic that he is a grown man who can take care of himself.
He has gotten this far in life without ever being hospitalized, or arrested, so I can't imagine shit could get TOO much worse for him in the coming 6-12 months. :shrug:

Put your drugs in a safe. And be careful with this guy - a schizo family friend of mine once cut his friend and roommate's arm off with a machete during an episode. They let him out after about a year in a mental institution though :lol:

I don't think he has been diagnosed schizoaffective, I believe he's just been medically diagnosed as severe bipolar, but from personally seeing his episodes, I think it's a little more than that.
Labels are pretty useless though, when you're talking specifics about a persons mental "disorder".

*Edit: If my drugs are in a safe, and the cops find weed in the house, could they confiscate my safe as evidence, or at have probable cause to search it? That's my main worry, is that cops will come to the house for some other reason. It's a likely possibility that pipes and bongs could be sitting out in viewable sight. It's also likely that we'll be having occasional parties at the house. 

That's why I'd probably create an actual place that would not exist unless otherwise, like a cutout in something. Then I'd put my safe in there.

I say just try it out for awhile and see how it goes :shrug: It seems like a sweet house and location for a good price...that's hard to come by these days. Just don't bring you're entire drug collection with you at first, and see how it is living with the guy. If he seems to keep on track with his meds and doesn't seem to have "episodes" then it's probably alright. Whether you have drugs there or not if he freaks out all the time with crazy delusional anger outbreaks then he wont be nice to live with and then you can sort something else out for yourself...

I'd say just give it a go :shrug:

I say go for it. A great house in a good neighborhood and a POOL!
You say the guy has been a good friend of yours and your brothers as well, so at least you can handle the guy.
When it comes to the drugs, create the craziest place you possibly can and hide your stuff there. If the cops do come to your place because of him and there are pipes and bongs in the open, I believe that the cops would be more concerned with him rather than that. And if they do come, get rid of your stash before they come back.
In the end, It comes down to weather or not you really want to do it.

I'll probably do it sometime within the next few months.

He's been a family friend for probably a good 5 years now, so I'd like to think I have a somewhat decent understanding of the severity of his mental case.

I'm definitely going to hide my drugs in a ridiculously hard to find location.

Are there standard legal documents to obtain from somewhere to allow me to sign as a lease holder? I don't want to move my stuff into his house without signing some legal documentation giving me full right to live there. That's not because of him though, that's just because I'm paranoid.

If I was arrogant, I'd call it "responsibility" :lol:

But seriously, he's a pretty normal guy. It's just if you're around him long enough that you'll probably see him get a little crazy for an instant. He usually realizes that he's being crazy and takes his medication, or at least listens when people tell him that he needs to.

i got a friend who is schizo, and he is fucking nuts. used to be a good bro but sometime after high school he became nuts, so much so that i was seriously wondering if he was gonna try and kill me.

if you don't get a creepy serial killer vibe from him i'd say it's safe. or learn to sleep with one eye open.

so you want to move in with him to take advantage of him or something..? why don't you try to help him become more stable?

maybe if he stops believing he is "bi-polar" and therefore stops giving himself an excuse to engage in his mood swings he could possibly grow up?

This guy needs to take medication to be functional.

Maybe it would be possible for him to become stable and "zen" if he lived in the mountains as a monk, but he lives in the city, and society was not built for his psyche. It doesn't work for him unless he's medicated.

you say he thoroughly enjoys shrooms yet you've already decided  you won't give him hallucinogens no matter what. how does this make sense? surely you know of psilocybins medical potential

also don't know where that opinion would've originated from, my thoughts on mental illness are from personal experience

i don't think you should live with him

i love you

you are beautiful! :rockon:

I never said "no matter what". I just said I wasn't going to give him hallucinogens.

Psilocybin has potential to trigger severe psychotic breaks among those who suffer from acute mental illness'. I'm not going to give him any hallucinogens because there is just as much possibility the experience could leave him as a severely confused, agressive, manic, 350lb man; as it could be medicinal.
Judging the possibilities, the consequences outweigh the positives.

I'm not sure if you're trolling me or some shit, but you have never been around someone with an acute mental disorder if you think that he is merely "believing" that he is bi-polar.

You are buying into just as much a load of bullshit if you think mental illness is one in itself.

you just said he thoroughly enjoys mushrooms but you're worried about him having a psychotic break? umm... doesn't really add up man. you've got alterior motives for living with him and that's why i don't think you should

but hey, do whatever you want

i love you

Well it looks like I'm not gonna be moving in with him. I think he's way more manic than I imagined. I talked to my brother who knows him way better, and he suggested I avoid him till he comes out of the episode, which could last a while until treated.

Shit, what a way to live  :undecided:
