AARO posted:I think a better approach would be to talk to the schizophrenic about the hidden microphones. Why do these microphones matter? Even if they are real how can it hurt them that someone is listening to what they are saying. If they are trying to hide some criminal details of their lives then that is what should be addressed. Whether or not the hidden microphones exist isn't the real issue. It's about trying to get them to live in their reality without the feeling of distress.

Can you bold the part of that that says "help schizophrenics by agreeing with them that the lizard people are real"?

I don't believe that your sources say that it should be a tactic of therapy to actively affirm a patient's delusions, but if they do say that, then they are bad.
