I am very concerned about my husband.He has episodes(for lack of a better word) where he seems to lose touch with reality.In between these episodes,he seems completely fine.

Yesterday he smoked a little weed and was acting so bizarre,saying and doing such strange things that it scared the crap out of me.I was afraid maybe his weed was laced with something but the person he smoked with was completely fine.It was like the weed triggered an episode,it was more than being stoned,the things he was saying and doing reminded me of his brother when he needs his medication changed for his schizophrenia.

He has had these episodes before too,just randomly,but they have been getting worse and more often the past 6 months.He doesn't believe me when I tell him about them,he doesn't remember them.Since he doesn't believe me,he refuses to seek any kind of help.

Sometimes these episodes will last hours and other times he will randomly just say some bizarre things.Like he said once he is like Moses and he will lead the people.About 6 months ago he told my son and I that he believes he cannot be killed by being stabbed with a knife,that he believes even if someone stabbed him it could never hurt him and tried to get me to stab him to prove it.

He is really starting to scare me with these episodes.Yesterday was extremely scary and it lasted probably 4 or 5 hours.When I tried to talk to him about it afterwards he said he did not say or do all the things I say he did,that he was just tired and I confused him.I didn't confuse him though,he was clearly confused on his own.It freaked me out so much that I seriously considered calling an ambulance or something,I didn't know what to do and I didn't know how to help him.

I have major anxiety from writing this right now.His episodes trigger my PTSD so badly because I don't know what he may do when like that and I feel so helpless.

He definitely needs to seek help.But how do you convince someone to seek it when they don't remember the episodes and don't believe what you tell them?

I know nothing about psychosis.Can it come and go like that?Can things trigger it?What are some examples of psychotic episodes so that I can compare them and see if that's maybe what's going on with him?

And,what do I do?
