Had he gone off his meds when this happened or was this a new episode for him.

My concerns isn't about him being out and on his meds....it is if he goes off his meds.

My buddy's wife has serious mental health issues. When she is on her meds you would never ever know about them. She is completely normal and presents no issues at all.

The trouble is after 6 months or so on her meds she thinks she doesn't need them (apparently this is part of her mental health issues). He has to have a discussion with her and once showed her a video of herself off the meds (no idea if this was a good idea, but it worked).

So my concern is, will be believe he is doing better and then not take his meds.
Exactly! Was involved in a similar, probably less dramatic situation myself with someone I dated.
