My friend's mental disorder?


Question:
I have a friend I used to party with, and he loved to take extacy. Anyway that was 3 yrs. ago. In the past year he has become paronoid, he thinks people are watching him. If he sees a stranger he will be like (yeah that's one of them) like a group that always follows him around. He always thinks that lincense plates on cars will show him that they are NARCS, he thinks i am one also because my first 3 digits on my plate. What should I tell him, what is wrong with him, he thinks everybody watches him he is going crazy. Is it because of the drugs?

Answers:
It could very possible be because of the drugs. If I were you I would have a talk with his parents or a school counselor. Your friends sounds like he needs help right now, and the people who are turning their heads and ignoring him aren't being very good friends. He may not like you for a while for telling someone about his problems, but I would rather save his life and have him dislike me, than have him like me, but be very sick or die.

Other Answers:
If he's not clinically mentally disabled, it's definitely the drugs. Drugs impair your judgement and people tend to get paranoid while under the influence. Have you discussed your concern with your friend? Maybe it would be a good idea to let him know how he acts and suggest therapy if he can't shake it. That's a terrible way to live, feeling as if everyone is against you. Good luck to you and your friend.

definitely guess from the drugs he needs to see a mental heatlh professional uncontrolled anxiety can be deadly.
and see a drug counselor if he still uses to end habit.

yep extacy causes major paranoia and mental health problems.if he thinks there are people out to get him he need serious professinal help im talking about being commited.my weird cousin (not through drugs) went a bit weird and though my mum and other cousin were spying on her because they were part of the fbi and we are in england the fbi r american.though my mum supported her while going through this rough time and apparently she is not the same person they grew up with..it can happen to anyone all you can do is support them no matter what even if they say they hate u they dont mean it.

The after effects of ecstasy use can include insomnia, anxiety, irritability and paranoia. The range and severity of after effects depends on the amount of ecstasy that is being used, and the regularity of use. Sleeping and eating will help the user to recover. Essential nutrients, particularly vitamin C and calcium, will need to be replaced. If you’ve been taking E every weekend and are starting to find that the days in between are becoming unbearable it’s time to take a break. Some people have developed short term mental health problems (like anxiety, , depression, low self esteem and paranoia) that clear up once they stop using. It needn’t b e forever. The same applies if you find yourself needing more pills to get the effect you want. Once you’re taking more than two pills in an evening the effects are more like speed.
