As soon as Nancy finished speaking, Nana suddenly grabbed a pillow and threw it at her. "All of you get out of here! I don't want to see you again. Why are there so many people, so many people…"
Rick quickly stood in front of Nancy to protect her. "Nancy, most people with mental illness will have hallucinations. Nana is currently in her own world, and she sees people chasing her. These illusions trigger her self-abusive and oppressive tendencies to protect herself."
"Well, what should we do?" Nancy did not know much about mental illnesses. As she looked at Nana's ferocious face, she felt sorry and anxious.
"What should I do?" She tried to calm herself down.
"Try to talk to her. Even if she won't listen to anyone, she is still conscious. Just be careful, because in her mind, everyone is an enemy! Including her family!" Rick explained.
"Okay." Nancy switched places with Rick to face Nana.
"I told you to get out of here. Didn't you hear me? Damn it! I don't w
ll prescribe some medicine for her and ask the nurse to put her on a drip. Her symptoms should subside." Rick handed a prescription to the nurse.
"I'll oversee this." Overwhelmed with tears, Nancy guessed that Nana must be exhausted. It was said that psychiatric patients had tremendous strength, but in reality, they were just overexerting their bodies.
Looking at Nana's tired and pale face, Nancy felt sorry for her.
"Director Nancy, don't you trust me?" the nurse bantered.
"No... It's just that Nana's condition is volatile, and I am worried..." She was trying to say something, but she hesitated to finish her sentence.
The nurse in charge of distributing the medicine for Nana interrupted Nancy, "I understand your concern, Director Nancy. Let's go together if you're that worried."
The nurse also felt odd. The medicine should have some effect on Nana after she took it, but now it seemed that it didn't work at all. Instead, her condition became even worse.
