A 19-year-old man is brought to the emergency department by his mother. She says that he has been acting strangely for the past 2 months, spending significantly less time with his friends and more time on the computer. Over the past few nights the mother has observed the patient shouting at the computer screen. She became alarmed when he suddenly disconnected all electronic devices in the house and warned his family that encrypted messages were being sent over the internet to control his brain.

He has no medical history. Psychiatric history is significant for mild anxiety in high school that was never treated. The patient does not use tobacco or alcohol but smokes marijuana daily. He also has used cocaine on several occasions. There is a family history of schizophrenia in a maternal uncle. Vital signs are within normal limits and physical examination shows no abnormalities.
