Well things are a bit more hopeful today after talking with the Counselor at the Mental Health Clinic my brother has been going to.
He seems to think once we talk to OHP directly they should be able to get him on medical right away just to make sure they know it's urgent.
He also said it is normal the olanzapine has not taken full effect yet, there still.kind of testing phase of what dosage he needs, he started at 7.5, he's at a 10 now and next week if things stay the same he will be moved to a 15 mg dose.
They insured me were doing everything we possibly can right now, that once OHP comes through with his medical we will be able to take him into a personal doctor and get a bit more help.
Continued prayers and kind thoughts

I recall waiting for meds to take effect and see if they will do the trick. Days, months and sometimes years. Waiting is hard but usually, there is a good outcome. Sometimes it takes forever to find the right medication.

I sure hope it doesn't take that long, if it does may need to find a facility that can help.
