Wow I can't imagine the pain that father is going through. Having his own daughter not recognize him , claim he is an imposter then yell at him to leave must be absolutely hearbreaking
I’m more concerned about the fact she wanted him to leave and he didn’t. She told him repeatedly and yet he sat in that chair. Having a parent that doesn’t have sound boundaries compounds her difficulties.
@@jujujupiter Her father shouldn't have boundaries. She is incapable of taking care of herself, he needs to do it for her. How is he supposed to do that if he can't get near her? You obviously do not understand mental illness.
@@jujujupiter This is the worst possible take, and I mean that genuinely, with serious concern for you. Did you not watch the first 6½ minutes of the video or do you simply have no ability to grasp context?
This episode hit different, my husband struggles with schizophrenia, diagnosed at 19 and we are only 21. I’m terrified that one day a delusion will change how he sees me, it’s extremely real to them, and it feels even more real than reality. They feel so hopeless and scared
The woman is suffering from Capgras Syndrom. It's most common in schizophrenia (like here) and dementia patients but can be caused by neurological issues with the brain.
@@jujujupiter true ig both is really horrible and it hurts a lot. Bc both parites feel misunderstood and do not know why the other person acts like they do, it is hard to grasp
@@jujujupitershe does not know anything is wrong with her. He does he does understand and is just trying to help his daughter. At this time she has no ability to decide things on her own as she isn't in the right mind set. It isn't like having deppresion etc.
It's Capgras Syndrom. A form of dillusional psychosis where the sufferer becomes convinced that a family member or friend had been replaced by an imposter.
How did they do it? My nephew has chronic schizophrenia. He self-medicates with marijuana and alcohol, which makes his symptoms worse. He was diagnosed @ 19 years old. Now he is 36 and on a downward spiral. He will not listen to the family. He is so sick. Meds are not working. My heart is broken. I helped raise him. 😢
@@godsdaughter1962 I have schizoaffective disorder. I know it's different from schizophrenia, but it is similar. I'm on quetiapine and lithium. I manage by taking my pills on time, using fenazepam from time to time (if my symptoms become unbearable). My fiancee supports me by talking to me when I need help. I try to refocus my illness by working. I work as an English teacher.
@@godsdaughter1962😢not sure about where you live but here family can get someone put into a mental health hospital and they can't leave until doctors clear them, so until their meds are working and their mental state is stable. It is hard but has to be done sometimes. It isn't taking a choice away from them as they are not in their right mindset to make safe choices.
@@xenalovesares My sister-in-law tried that. My nephew is an actor. He had a promising career. He played in the Wire. He had a part in the miniseries, "We own the City". We live in Baltimore, Maryland. My nephew is good at fooling docs, or they just do not care. They did not even keep my beloved nephew overnight for observation. The psychiatrist told his mother that my nephew was a 35 year old man. This was a year ago. She said that he was not suicidal or homicidal, so they could not keep him. It is a devastating disease. My dad had it. I became a psychiatric pharmacist to help people like my dad. I would have never dreamt that my beloved nephew would inherit this dreadful disease. Poor kid is much sicker than my dad was. We pray for him. Bless you. ❤
My son is schizophrenic and in a terrible manic state he didn’t recognize me and his dad. It’s the hardest thing for me to deal with. It’s been a 12 yr struggle since his diagnosis
I'm schizophrenic and a lot of my friends are too. I've never seen or heard of anything like this related to us. Our illness adds to the world, not misidentifies it.
Capgras delusion can manifest in schizophrenic individuals. In fact Schizophrenia is a risk factor for Capgras (which is rare, even among those with schizophrenia). The fact it doesn't occur *in* all doesn't mean it doesn't occur *at* all.
Oh lucky 7th place comment. Lol. This was really good but I never saw this whole episode and I wish knew what happened and what came of the situation. If she was able to get help and stabilize
@rawlivingwithdisabilities Schizophrenia is considered to be a disease of thought. Their thoughts get disordered and mixed in with various kinds of hallucinations and/or paranoia. It typically presents in her age group and gets worse over time. They can be very nice people and do great things, but... it can get very hard when they stop trusting people, hear voices, and start isolating themselves. She may have been fine when they had brunch. But now it's getting worse.

@@jujujupiter So if he looks after her at home and she wants to go run in traffic should he let her do that?
It’s ok that we have conflicting views.

I was stalked and harassed by an obsessed paranoid schizophrenic for a few years. He was also a narcissist and very manipulative not fun
@enjoyingmyvodka1013 Good for you? They’re not all like that, especially if they take their meds.
@@Sniperboy5551 I know
@@Sniperboy5551 I was referring to those that don’t take their meds get help or accept they have problems.
Ouufff ..
The actor acting as a psych patient was spot on👏👏👏
Yeah she was really good
Amazing acting from the father and the daughter.
This is just heartbreaking. I knew someone with this illness and it ended in heartbreak.
damn this one made me cry so hard . Poor man he lost his wife to the same thing and might lose his daughter too.

I know cause of New Amsterdam!
Poor little girl 1:16 I'm shivering from How good her acting to it😢
She isn’t that little
:c it must be horrible to have someone near you not recongising you
It must be more horrible to be mentally ill and be misunderstood by family members.

I wonder if her psyche regressed to when her mom was alive and her dad looked a lot different.
That's a unique theory

8:04 warning it breaks the heart ❤️
You can live a full life with schizophrenia. I’ve seen people do it. It’s not a death sentence.

@godsdaughter1962 He’s probably not taking his meds or the marijuana just counteracts any benefit they might have.
wow what a reversal in the perspective toward the dad, too bad the title spoiled it...
A horrible diagnosis… one I know all too well…

Pretty good acting from the girl.
It’s gonna be ok man non of this is your fault life is cruel but you’ll be fine
It's like a disorder 😢
I hope she gets better because this is so sad
Feel sorrie for father
I personally feel sorry, but I’m glad you are empathetic in your own way
*sorry
My husband having schizophrenia too but not in low level
Ive been told i have schitzophreniea before

False memories and memory deficits are actually known to be common during episodes of schizophrenia, but everyone is different

@@curious1366 not that fast...it takes months to years to develop!
I think it's a problem because they don't take their medicine.
A mom has bipolar and if she just took her medicine things would be fine.
What show is this?
My ex had this n didn't recognize me a lot
Capgras syndrome, calling it now！
It is. Classic symptoms. Some assume that their parents were replaced by a diplocate.
*duplicate
Capgras syndrome?
300th like let's go
First?
Second can you pls pin me
No
That doctor was evil.
How was she evil?
