  • I recently watched Christina Randall's new video about the demon-possession of Micheal Taylor back in the '70s. This is a tragedy that never should have happened. Someone should have recognized that Micheal was experiencing Bipolar Psychosis during a manic episode. I'll explain why that is, and what could have been done!

      He was hospitalized, I've seen maniac, it's demons Amber, that's making them act this way. A priest is of Satan they are not of Lord God. And he picked up more demons being under a woman Pastor, a man shouldn't be under a woman, it's not of Lord God either. The hospital doesn't help, the medicine only goes so far, only a pastor that fast, repent and pray can remove demons. The demons give them this energy, and cause them not to sleep.

    I have both HAD mania, and have two close friends with manic episodes and psychosis. It was confusing even when you know what it is. One friend stayed with me after a stint in jail and didn't sleep and talked for four days straight. In the end I had to leave it to the professionals. Being around crazy people will make you crazy too if you're not careful.

    I once was sleep walking, I took a bunch of anti psychotic medication, and antidepressants that were not prescribed to me (not intentional) when I woke up I thought I had just gone crazy.. I was sure my husband was trying to kill me, then I had obsessive thoughts about killing my kids.. it was hours before we actually figured out what happened At the hospital.. it was such a scary 48 hour glimpse into what people with psychosis experience.. I'm pretty sure if my husband hadn't been there I would have drowned my kids or killed myself. and I've never ever thought about harming them at any other time.. such a eye opener- both to mental health issues and the fact that I had to sleep walk proof my house.. were so lucky nobody died that day!! But now I can seriously understand how this stuff happens.. sad situation for everyone involved

      First time reading this. Apparently, it was the medication that caused you to react or have those feelings. I believe a lot of the medications people take definitely have side affects and some are extreme. It really doesn’t help the patient, but does the opposite! I have also seen people who were actually demon possessed and demon oppressed. Yes, it’s very real!!!!!!!!

    Mania and psychosis can be dangerous and terrifying. I asked my friend to leave my house and she picked up a pair of scissors like a weapon. That was sadly the end of our friendship, it's too dangerous to be around people in psychosis. As sure poor Michael's wife found out. Shameful that they sent him home with her.

Took me a while and a lot of videos on manipulation to make the decision but in the end you can only help people who really want to change. She had verbally abused me in front of my children but I forgave her four times then the scissors incident happened. I realised the situation was getting out of control so as much as it hurt it was time to let her be her own responsibility. I wish her nothing but the best I just can't be involved anymore.

    My father has BP and had it to this extreme level exactly as you described!! It’s very important that a family member of a loved one with BP make certain they are on medication and they are staying on them!!! Also getting a durable power of attorney over them so that you can make sure they are getting medical care or you can put them in a Psyc hospital fir their safety.. usually they get picked up by the police because of their bizarre behavior and it’s important to know where they are and to be able to talk to the doctor because not a lot of doctors know about BP and what to do. I have learned so much about BP just by observation.

      @@katrina7464 that’s great. It sounds like my father has a more extreme mania. He avoids taking his medication and seeing doctors during this time. I can’t reason with him to go even if I make the appointment and take him he would refuse to go. The only help I can get for him is when he is 5150d for being a danger to himself or others. Your plan sounds solid and I like the healthy techniques you are able to do when things get worse. My father takes Lamictal. He has been on about a dozen different meds for BP. I just pray the mania doesn’t happen again or if it does it’s very short. The last bout lasted 9 months and directly afterward it went straight into major depression and he was then hospitalized for 14 months, but his is 81. Age doesn’t seem to matter, so far.

    I think demonic possession is more common than we think. I know of a personal case of my friends daughter that snapped and the woman who is possibly possessed tried to rip her 57 years old mom's face off and the daughter has 2 kids autism and the boy hasn't been diagnosed with it and the mother and grandmother of these 3 said grandma I don't want to go into the garage he said a snake man scary man is in there. The grandmother of the 2 children and mother of the daughter who is in there for kidnapping a little girl at elementary school and she walks the little girl home after abducting her and she told the police once caught that all children should die because they are being raised by computers and all must die. There's a demon or several in her garage and I think they need deliverance. The grandma was in a relationship with a bad man evil man who had a alter in the small garage he had a alter candles and other thing's in the garage and he died in the night from a serious coughing spell. And he died later on like 4 days later. The little boy grawls spits hits bites his grandmother and the sister who has autism in which I am feeling really strongly that the little girl doesn't have autism. I asked the girl to come let me see her eye's and her eye's were solid black and I seen the demon then my friend looked at her eye's she seen it and then I asked the girl to come back to me to check her eye's one more time. Well I know it's absolutely demonic and don't know who to get this family help. The things of warship in that garage are unknown so not sure if he was worshipping Satan. It was a snake with a man head. The 4 year boy seen it. I know I jumped around on this but I just hope helpcomes soon.

      Demonic possession and oppression is a very real thing. When someone slithers on the floor and moves like a snake and their tongue looks like and moves like that of a snake; when you see a person being dragged around on the floor and and one is dragging them; when you see bite marks appearing on someone’s body where they can’t bite themselves and someone actually pulling hair from a creature from another dimension. When the hair was analyzed, it was nothing from this world! The demonic world is very real.

    Can't believe this didn't occur to me hearing about this case! You're so right!! I was gonna mention something about his age but now I'm having second thought, I was gonna say that it's common for men to start experiencing psychosis at that age but I think I'm mixing men and women up. I think it might be more common for men to begin to show signs of psychosis in late adolescence/early adulthood and that for women it's more common in the early 30's...

    • @PutTheShovelDown
      @PutTheShovelDown  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hi Lydia, Schizoaffective disorder is a cross between Bipolar Disorder and Schizophrenia. So, yes, it's similar. One of the main differences between Bipolar and Schizoaffective disorder is that a person with Schizoaffective disorder will have some delusions even while they're not having a mood cycle. Bipolar people can have psychosis but it's usually when they're either severely manic or depressed.

    I went so far manic during COVID lockdowns that I lost control of my actions, I ended up running out of my house and walking on the road into oncoming traffic uncontrollably, it was like Somone had a controller and made me walk into oncoming cars which I got hit so hard I was in the air doing cartwheels, I ended getting hit again about 3 more times from different cars on an 8 hour uncontrolled walk. The last car hit me and knocked me down and I remember thinking I was the devil and that I was going to die and get resurrected and die again in a worse way every time. It was a miracle I lived and I am still able to walk with only arthritis in my ankle that got worse from being on my feet for that long. I pray that a never get that bad again and iv made a comeback and am stronger than before. God bless
