Further to this, the Psychiatrist at The Forum School diagnosed Myles with associated conditions when he was around 16 years old. Myles has attended The Forum School for nine years. Initially I educated him at home for five years, after which he attended a special education day school.

I never imagined Myles wouldn't live at home with me until I began to see, first hand, how generic Special Education between 9am and 3pm couldn't possibly meet his complex needs. It took me much longer than Myles to adjust to him living away from home, however, after time, I realised that he was settled and benefited from being in a more structured environment.

When Myles commenced his Forum School journey he was incontinent and his diet was extremely limited.

He would only eat toast, biscuits and particular brand of microwave chips, and had very little functional communication. Myles' sleep difficulties, incontinence and behaviour meant that I struggled to meet his needs at home.

Looking back, I wonder how I managed for as long as I did. We had become isolated and felt trapped within our home. Myles is now coming to the end of his Forum School journey. They supported him to be continent and use the toilet independently during the day, within six months of Myles starting his residential placement. Now Myles eats a varied diet, has learned to use cutlery and can participate in a wide range of activities, in fact, he is eating out at restaurants, visiting the cinema and helping with the shopping at the supermarket.

Myles' Epilepsy Surgery Story

Myles has been supported in learning skills for life such as getting dressed, cooking meals and brushing his teeth. He has also developed interests such as using a computer, horse riding and cycling. Myles can now use a tablet to communicate effectively with to others, which is something that many take for granted. Myles' tablet also supports him in developing his speech; the day I heard my son first use the sentence, 'I want milk please, Mummy', I was filled with pride and wanted to jump for joy.

In fact, every time I hear his voice I feel proud of all that he has achieved despite his challenges. All those that work at The Forum School are caring, dedicated and genuine. He would emerge from his room and ask his family to be quiet even when they were not making any noise. Myles began talking about organized crime so often that his father and sister brought him to the emergency room. On exam there, Myles was found to be a poorly groomed young man who seemed inattentive and preoccupied. His family said that they had never known him to use drugs or alcohol, and his drug screening results were negative.

He did not want to eat the meal offered by the hospital staff and voiced concern that they might be trying to hide drugs in his food. She has been out of touch with them, and they thought she might have been treated for mental health problems.

The Adventurous Life of Myles Standish and the Amazing-but-True Survival Story of Plymouth Colony

Myles agreed to sign himself into the psychiatric unit for treatment. His story reflects a common case, in which a high-functioning young adult goes through a major decline in day-to-day skills. Although family and friends may feel this is a loss of the person they knew, the illness can be treated and a good outcome is possible.

In the case of Myles, he was having persecurtory delusions, auditory hallucinations and negative symptoms that had lasted for at least one year. All of these symptoms fit with a diagnosis of schizophrenia. It is key for the treating doctor to quickly rule out other causes of the problem, such as substance use, a head injury or a medical illness.

Treatment for these conditions differs from that for schizophrenia and may be lifesaving. Understanding Mental Disorders is a consumer guide designed to promote education and understanding among anyone who has been touched by mental illness.

Schizophrenia is a chronic brain disorder that affects about one percent of the population. When schizophrenia is active, symptoms can include delusions, hallucinations, trouble with thinking and concentration, and lack of motivation. However, when these symptoms are treated, most people with schizophrenia will greatly improve over time.
