Is there a way to help a insane schizophrenic drug addict who's in denial?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Stop name calling: Start by not using judgmental language, "insane" this demonstrates a lack of insight into how much suffering this individual is going through. You need to identify how much they must be suffering and offer to help find better alternative treatments than self medication with drugs.
