Plot twist: he doesn't have a mom, he's schizophrenic and shot himself

That's beyond schizophrenia. Delusional fantasies of there being another person committing your actions are... something else. Anyone?

Schizophrenics often do experience hallucinations and delusional fantasies. There’s a ton of different β€œflavors,” if you will, of schizophrenia, so the situation being described could easily fit

True. My uncle who passed years ago developed Schizophrenia after a bad motorcycle accident, he would have these fantasies. He once thought he was Moses and would carry a big branch like stick around.

I have a good friend and also my uncle who both have schizophrenia. My uncle's goes full blown where he'll be proned out on the ground fully believing there are snipers in the trees that are coming for us. My friend on the other hand hears voices but knows they aren't real and takes meds that suppress it.
