jumping from topic to topic. However, reported that at times his mood can be depressed and
upset by his neighbours. On one occasion he drank some liquid in an attempt to poison
himself, found by mother and taken to A&E discharged. Denied having any current suicidal
ideation or thought to harm himself.
There was no evidence of any hallucinations. Personality appears to be intact.

this said he has never taken medication as he does not believe he has any mental health
problem to require medication.
Impression:
37 year old male appears to have had a difficult childhood spoke about scars on his legs from
beatings form his father. Wants to protect children, and vulnerable people believes it is his
duty. 2015 diagnosed with psychotic illness and referred to EIS does not appear to have
engaged with treatment offered, previously prescribed Olanzapine. Does not appear to
require crisis team or mental health act assessment at this time. But would benefit from
assertive follow up in the community. EIS state that has gone beyond EIS three-year
treatment period.
Plan therefore to refer to North Locality Team Locality Team. E-mail sent.
EIS agree to liaise and advise court regarding the request for a report.
Closed to EIS.
