[|Human|] good evening, my ex-partner (my sons dad) has got sever paranoid schyzophrenia and has been put back on respiridone injection after being taken off clozapine (he wasn t taking it properly). he used to drink heavily but has now reduced his daily intake to 2 to 4 guiness a day. he has daily blackouts further to coughing (has had those for about 4 years), is in bed about 19 hours a day everyday, is emotionless, and very rapidly acting more and more like a young child (he s 41). i am wondering if those are related to his mental health or might it be related to a more physical issue? thanks
[|AI|]  Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor. I am Chat Doctor, Psychiatrist. I am here to help you. Paranoid schizophrenia is a chronic illness that causes impairment in thinking, attention, concentration and also in emotions. So emotionless behavior is due to Schizophrenia. And your partner is regularly consuming alcohol that is a known cause of blackouts. I will suggest that he should be regular in taking injectables and should cut down or stop taking alcohol. If you have any further query, please ask me. Good Luck.
