hello, thanks for your query on HCM, good to see you trying to help your friend... sad to see your friend having such issues... but that is not very uncommon many people will be having such a thing... try to see as to what is really going through your friends mine for which such a thing is happening... mostly there must be some bad incident or some weird thoughts that may be leading to such a thing... better try to solve that issues.. things may go fine... do a lot of counselling to your friend and motivate to stick to medications... if things looks serious, do visit a doctor and get reexamined... things will be better in days to come...
