I thought I have become a prophet and my hallucinations are messages from God, because of that my hallucinations were sacred and very important for me.

I think you have done an excellent job both in explaining the illness and in inspiring others to "keep on keeping on" as we used to say.

It is a little hard to take but I know this symptom will fade as he gets better. One thing I notice is that he finds comfort (when he is completely psychotic) by going to church. My mom told me he has sat in the same pew for almost 6 hours one time. I couldn't believe it.
