TRANSCRIPT
(tense music) - [Narrator] My brother, Michael, and I, were evacuated together and spent 18 months at a hideous boarding school in the Midlands.
We were bullied, we were beaten, and I think the circumstances did something to push my brother, Michael, towards psychosis.
Soon after this, when he was 15, Michael became psychotic.
He was diagnosed as schizophrenic.
He could no longer sleep or rest, and agitatedly strode to and fro in the house, stamping his feet, glaring, hallucinating, shouting.
(ominous music) I became terrified of him, for him, of the nightmare which was becoming reality for him.
What would happen to Michael?
And would something similar happened to me too?
