Will calling the health services on him backfire at us?
He is 34. Been having thoughts that people are hunting him and making his life miserable for more than 6-7 years now. There are phases where he lives alone, rents and works, and phases where he is at my parents' house for months, sometimes even 1-2 years.
Now, he is at a phase where he is living with parents again. He insults, speaks bad, accuses them/us of helping his hunters etc. He has never been violent physically or made any threats, but verbally he sometimes loses it and insults badly.
We have tried speaking to him, partnering with him. Even though partnering is hard when he considers everyone against him.
He is functional and does stuff, even though for the past 3 months he is living with my parents despite the fact that he has an apartment of his own. My parents have asked him to go back to his apartment but he refuses to.
Should we - at this point - just try to call the health services on him? It is not an easy procedure, however, because he has never been violent, never made threats, and in general he is not a danger to himself or others. They even told us that, many psychiatrists and the police.
However we can try. I am afraid of the following however...
-What if they don't take his situation seriously and don't give him the meds he needs?
-What if they instantly release him and he comes back to the house with even more distaste towards us? (he already dislikes us)
I am afraid it might backfire as in, he might think his own family is doing harm to him. He is already suspicious of everyone and us, now imagine how he would feel if this happened.
What is your opinion? For the record, I live in Europe.
