Regarding people who suffer from mental illnesses , such as personality disorders , psychotic episodes ect , we usually have a good system here in the UK to take care of these people , its called "care in the community" where those people should be visited by nurse , care , health worker to make sure that they are conttinuing to take thier medicine to keep the individual stable , if the medication is not taken by the individual or they are causing a problem in the community , then they are sectioned under the mental health act here in the UK and kept in hospital until they would be assesed by drs ect ...and they decide they are able to go home ect ....

I was interested to know, how people in USA suffering from mental disorders or psychotic episodes , violence and aggression are treated , do they have the same sytem here where someone would visit thier home to make sure they are taking the medication the individual would require ?
