User talk:Just trying to help

—Just trying to help 05:04, 6 April 2009 (UTC)Today I had a very scary experience with someone I believe is in serious trouble. My friend broke up with him. He called me to come and remove his guns from his home in tears. I called a 10 year friend of his to go with me as I was afraid to be alone with him. I have read several articles on acute pyschosis, have talked to his doctor and described the constant rocking and facial ticks. He yelled at me for bringing any one with me. I talked to him for approximately 15 minutes. He is delusional. He believes there is nothing wrong with him. I talked with his doctor to bring him in. I am afraid. He has no family and lives in the middle of nowhere, consumes mass amounts of beer, smokes. He told me today that he has not slept in 3 days. He looks like a wild man.

I am a married woman with a child. I have the guns in my home. My husband says he will take him to the doctor. I do not want to return the 5 rifles and 2 shot guns to him. When I walked into his room to talk to him, there was a gun on the bed. The articles I read on acute pyschosis. He fit every item. Do I call the doctor if he refuses to go. How do I keep from giving the guns back, so he cannot hurt himself or others. The doctor told me to call the police. This person would have shot them... HELP ME PLEASE..

Is there a way to have the guns put in safe keeping until he is in a stable safe mental state of mind. Some are antiques. But I would feel horrible if the guns were returned to him and he hurt himself or others. He has been commited before with the VA Hospital. I dont know what to do. Take the guns to the police dept or put in safe storage. He needs help. He is delusional and thinks people are hiding in his woods.

Yesterday he called my friend 127 times and left hateful messages and then apologetic. She is afraid. I will not go back there. How do I help him, without him hating me
