This is all over "X" now:
A new report says Nick Reiner has a diagnosis of schizophrenia and that his behavior became “erratic and dangerous” due to a medication change in the weeks before he allegedly killed his parents Rob and Michele Reiner at their home in Los Angeles' Brentwood neighborhood.

Well he behaved in court so they must have managed to fix him in the jail pretty fast.This is all over "X" now:

Dad recently told NPR Nick was in a good place and hadn't done drugs in six years but apparently he fell off the wagon after all of that time if he had the recent stint in rehab, all of which this article mentions. $70,000 a month rehab facility. Wow. Are they the ones who messed with his meds? There is the lawsuit for Jackson to get someone on, whoever couldn't get him under control.
He clearly wasn't doing well to end up in rehab again, with the illegal drugs either. And the parents must have forced him to go or persuaded him because only he can put himself in as an adult. If it was there though, why was he released if his behavior was alarming and erratic or did he skip out on his own?
Have you watched the movie? I linked it above. It's well worth a watch, one can't help but wonder how closely it parallels their real lives. It's pretty well done imo.
I've seen excerpts but I probably won't watch it. I'm pretty dead-set on what I think is the best way to handle kids who are dealing with drugs, so it would probably make me nuts to watch it.

Schizophrenia in males usually onsets in the late teens, early twenties, RARE cases maybe before as early as 13.
Since he was doing drugs since an adolescent, seems likely then he was doing them prior to having schizophrenia. I wonder if there had been issues before that with Nick. I wouldn't doubt it as he mentioned he and his dad not "bonding" when he was a child like dad and his brother did. I felt some anger or upset behind that. Imo.

And to add to my own post, hearing Rob say to "trust your gut" in these cases was enough. It was so sad and maddening at the same time.
Good point about age. My brother's schizophrenia didn't manifest until he was in the Marines.

I don't know about that but I get it. There's really only one stint of rehab in it. There's really nothing about what the parents did or didn't do other than to get him into that facility and get him to stay a couple of times. They were taking a hard stance in the case they showed. Tough love so to speak. Mom wasn't as on board with it throughout but dad was. It's not really about the relationship that much between the parents and him, it's almost all about rehab and Charlie. Friends he made. A girl he met. All in rehab.
I don't think you'd regret watching. Jmo.

AI Overview
Schizophrenia typically starts in the late teens to early 30s, with men often showing symptoms earlier (late teens/early 20s) than women (late 20s/early 30s), though it's less common but can happen in childhood or later in life, often signaled by subtle changes in thinking, mood, and behavior before full psychosis.

It's far more about drug use and those that were struggling with it. With only touches of mom and dad when he left rehab, etc.
We'll see. I've been involved with a LOT of families and their issues with kids over the years. Then there were the issues with my brother before his death. While I'm drawn to this case for those reasons, I also don't want to get absorbed in the issues any longer, either.

I've heard from people that have family members with the diag say it at about 27.

You mean on the interview of course right? Not the movie? It's not them in the movie. I'm not sure how much is even true to their lives. The parents definitely don't dominate in the movie, it is about Charlie and his struggles.

Almost identical to what I came up with.
Yes, the interview in 2016. Sorry, didn't make that clear.

I normally don't do "Hollywood" type cases but was in this one from the start too. I was on late one night when Sunny came on and shared the breaking news in the basement.
I get it. Your choice of course. I do highly recommend it though as you know I've said too much probably. For me it just fits the case.
Charlie's undoing wasn't his parents. It was the girl. He had stood firm when she wanted to drink wine when they got an overnight pass for the first time from the rehab place or halfway place for rehab. And they behaved and went back to rehab as they were supposed to after that night. But later... I don't want to tell all about the movie of course, just saying the parents are very little of it/in it. It's called "Being Charlie" and that's pretty much who it is about.

Not necessarily. Late 20s, early 30s is the most common age to be diagnosed.

It doesn't say when he was diagnosed. It must have been before now as they were making changes in his meds but then they could have been trying to find out which ones work for him and it could have been a recent diagnosis. Doesn't say when.
In the movie, was "Charlie" dealing with a mental health issue of any kind?
