A major problem with schizophrenia, is that the people who suffer from it, frequently don't feel that they need the medication, discontinue taking it, and then, slip deeply into psychosis, becoming a danger to themselves and others. So, sadly, it is very hard to rehabilitate these people, if they refuse the proper medical treatment. They can be highly dangerous.

A local college hired a PS to teach courses. Bad idea. It seems his propensity to skip his meds did not mix very well with a rambunctious class he taught. After he threatened to kill a few students, they sent him away for a long rest in more serene surroundings.
