I have no fucking clue what the fuck is going on right now.

My brother just suddenly started acting crazy, doing weird body motions, staring out at nothing for hours, talking about reaching "nirvana" or some shit, laughing uncontrollably out of nowhere

I think he might literally have gone insane.

He has never had any neurological or psychological problems before this... episode/fit/whatever.

He was acting strange yesterday, just staring out the windows and babbling some nonsense, and when I asked him what he was doing, he said he was "meditating" and he told me to just leave him alone.

I was like, alright sure, whatever. Not the first time he went into one of these fad diets/rituals. He'll just get bored of it and move on to the next one like always.

But then I notice all his odd behavior and I was starting to get worried. It came to a head a few hours ago when he was LITERALLY DROOLING ALL OVER HIMSELF. Like, the whole front of his shirt was just wet, and a lot of it spilled onto the floor. I tried to talk to him but he would not respond to me, and he just kept saying that he "was close to nirvana" and "I can feel everything the energy."

Keep in mind, I was in the apartment the whole day with him yesterday and today, and he doesn't take any sort of medications or drugs or whatever, so I have no idea what could have caused this.

I had to call our mom, who is a nurse, over. I also tried to call for an emergency psych consult, but they don't have a team for late night emergencies, so they said to just call 911, so I did. Paramedics came and did a whole routine of taking blood pressure, blood sugar, pupil dilation, interviews, all that stuff.

Now, my mom and my brother are at the hospital right now, and I'm in the apartment with my youngest brother, wide awake, can't sleep and worried out of my mind.

Talk to me potd.
