I know right? There's a camera right up in the sky that's watching me right now and broadcasting and I don't know if you're in on it but it's broadcasting across the universe and I heard them last night recording and they stuffed up its so fucking rude honestly like they don't even try
Xob he so fake im tired of these lazy people claim skitsophrenia is so great and a blessing theyll be homeless one day and in prison for fraus longer they go frauding the system
8 years later, and this video si still helping people. I'm a teen using this video for a research project it's super helpful to understand what ti actually feels like
+noah I'm sorry no one ever complimented the way you look so you dont know shit about it but as long as its not overly sexual or something its actually ok to compliment someone. So stop being petty(:
Im not an ape so i dont care if people dont compliment how i look (we live in the 21st century). i just want to know how is his attractiveness relevant to this video. and maybe you're too dumb to realize this but there is a double standard
+noah bruh you just admitted that no one compliments you 😂😂😂 comments are here for people to say whatever they want whats irrelevant is what you consider relevant lol no one cares. Also if a man is complimenting a woman kindly without making it sexual she'll appreciate it as well too bad you dont know how to compliment woman lmao
look noah, I suppose you're here because you think you have schizophrenia, you possibly have schizoaffective because... you're bipolar a/f. You know compliments are kinda really give you a good feeling lol
I'm so happy that you're social and enjoying life again. You're making so much progress and that's inspirational. So many people who have mental illnesses (especially schizophrenia) are told they'll be lonely/single/friendless and won't be able to maintain relationships but I'm so happy to see you're proving them wrong! I'd love to see a video on that topic
thank you so much for your videos. My cousin who I grew up with was diagnosed with schizophrenia about a year ago. She has gone down a really awful path and her family (myself included) have no idea how to handle the symptoms. Everything I've seen of this illness is severe and she looks so lost all the time. But you clearly have the ability to function and rationalize and it's so encouraging, you said it started out really bad- I was worried she would just get worse but this gives some hope. thanks.
"Why do voices have to happen right when you're trying to sleep. That's just rude." I literally laughed out loud. At my desk at work. It's right on though, that shit gets a million times worse at night. And why? Like you said... it's just rude.
I also have schizophrenia, and I love your videos, they make me feel less alone in my thoughts, you are awesome. and yes, I have noticed I also don't care about looks at all, I look kinda like complete trash.... random question, if you have had a positive hallucination, what's your favorite and what was it like?
Andy Jones hey Andy I know it's been 9 months since your post but yea your first post pretty accurately describes what happens with me. I have managed to work through the negative symptoms and I'm starting to see things like what you describe. I think schizophrenia is like being tuned in with the spiritual world and most people don't know how to rationalize their experiences. They just write it off as dillusions and paranoia.
Just saw Anna Campbell's video, loved yours to as it gives the view of a 'patient'. And I don't mean that in a negative way or something I really loved this and feel for you. I have a friend who has early onset schizophrenia and we try to make him aware of it and try to help him by just listening to him and trying to get him to a therapist or something.
There was an ad in the middle of the video and then I checked to see how many subscribers you got now and it's 18,000! That 3x as much as it was the last time I checked.
I'm just now finding your channel and I love how open you are about mental illness. I work at a mental health facility, so I love seeing someone trying to help people understand this difficult topic. So many people have misconceptions about people with mental illness and even though I don't struggle with schizophrenia, I appreciate your videos so much because you can help so many! Thank you for sharing your personal experiences and I look forward to seeing new videos from you! 😀
Thanks for this. I have been diagnosed with schizophrenia recently and this has helped me with a number of different things. I was like you too always involved with sports and activities and I loved to learn. But recently my hallucinations and voices took me away from all that. The important thing I took from this video is I have to stay strong through all that. This really helped me.
It's 2019 now, but this year I wanted to tell people at my school what's its like so they really know how hard it is for people to live with it. You really helped me with this video!! I'm so proud that you share your experience to the internet! Keep it going and stay strong
Awesome channel bruh, feel less alone. Had 2 psychotic episodes and my experiences with mostly audio hallucinations, pretty similar to yours. Still on meds...
i had a short schizophrenic episode too for a few months but man is it tough... the worst its gotten was probably near insanity and almost losing my mind because i couldn't control my thoughts and it hurt just to think. I've also had encounters where I think demons are in my room and feel their presence but not sure if that was related to my schizophrenia or not. hopefully God will heal you and you can live in peace man.! keep ur head up this isn't the end.
You are such a good person, you are so genuine, thanks for being the person you are. I'm facing social anxiety. I know it's not completely the same as schizophrenia but I understand what you're going through. Please stay strong you are not alone ok ? With much love from Paris ❤️
I don't really remember how I was before I started getting ill either. It's depressing. And every time I try to move forward I can feel the stress taking me back towards psychosis. So on top of not having the motivation to go on with my life, I'm constantly fearful that I will fall back into psychosis trying. I agree with you in that you just have to stay strong. I just often wonder if I can keep it up is all.
Plz keep making videos - it's very interesting to listen to you - if u can speak on what the voices say to you and why - what you see on a daily basis - you can talk about what you experience on a daily basis - we can learn from whatever u go through
Hey I just want you to know that as a scitsophrenic... this is a great video. It's comforting to know that I'm not the only one, you know? Thank you, for this.
when i was in boot camp, i would always think people were trying to poizen me. every time i would leave my canteen somewhere, when i got back and i would empty it and clean it. same with my food. i would always think people were plotting to kill me when i got out and shit. i couldn't sleep. i was paranoid af. it lasted a couple more months when i got out of boot camp too. that was last year from January all the way through June. its all gone now doe.
I don't have schizophrenia but some other weird shit and I gotta say it's kind of comforting hearing from someone who has somehow similar problems eventhough caused by a different issue. Always remember to keep your head up.
I'm so sorry for saying this, especially under such a serious, personal and open video, but I just have to say that I think you are so beautiful. Usually I don't comment shallow stuff like this but I just wanted you to know. Now you do. Also, thanks for sharing and talking about this. I found it extremely educational and interesting. Plus I believe that we all should talk more openly about mental illnesses in general so thanks for doing that as well. :)
Hey man "normal" question......what's your favorite musical group?.....interesting question.................whats are your dreams like?...do the hallucinations transfer?
Hey man, you should really look into Sarcosine. I've been schizophrenic since i was a kid and this stuff saved me. All my suicidal thoughts and paranoia are gone and i only take the sarcosine, no rx. I highly recommend it to you and anyone else suffering from schizophrenia and depression. No bad side effects and it's cheap, look into it!
This I very interesting to watch. My mother was schizophrenic but never sought help. My family tried but she was aggressively adamant that her delusions were real. She thought that the government was trying to kill her and that they put an infection inside of her when my younger brother was born. She would pick at her skin obsessively and then point to those wounds and try to claim them as evidence to her claim that "the people" were hurting her. She kept the scabs and made messages out of them for her abusers. My childhood was odd to say the least. I always have wondered how different our lives would be if she had ever gotten on medication. I am not sure where she is now. I don't intend to seek her out.
I stumbled upon your channel and I wanted to say thank you for sharing. I am recently diagnosed and I am having a hard time with the diagnosis. I feel very alone so I have taken to TH-cam to find other people like me.
My baby brother was just diagnosed with schizophrenia recently. We haven't spoken in many years but I'm hoping that these videos will help me understand what he's going through when we do meet again.
You're doing great dude :) not many cope with this like you do I would really like to hear you say something more about your lsd experience, which you've mentioned in some other video...Because I think it might have brought me negative symptoms. I'm in a sort of a permanent trip, part of me just 'stayed there'.. but luckily no positive symptoms anyway, keep up, love you
I find it really interesting to learn about this topic! & I would have never guessed you had an illness if you weren't talking about it. I'm sorry you have to live with this but you seem to handle it pretty well at this point. & I just have to mention your a very good looking guy hopefully you can find an amazing person to spend your life with!
Thank you for posting this video, it's comforting to see how someone else deals. The paranoia is constant, and distracting. How do you handle the everyday struggles? Are you upfront with everyone concerning your mental health, employers, co-workers, friends, etc? I personally don't share the information with anyone in my professional life for fear of stigma. If you've already posted a video about handling your mental health in public/professional environments disregard my comment, I just haven't seen it yet. But if you haven't addressed the issue could you? Thanks :-)
I always thought you looked really thin in your older videos but the fact that you thought your food was poisoned explains that. But I think you look better now!
i dont have schizophrenia but I have severe OCD and its always the worst at night I can never sleep bc of my compulsions. Mental illness likes to show up in the worst situations!
how come people dont care about their appearance and they have amazing hair but i comb my hair and try to make it nice and i look like a fucking cassowary with a feather disease like wtf
Briannah Maria i think i look pretty similar to this guy (face) except for the hair so i look fucking dumb unless i get a buzz cut but then i look like a neo nazi so theres just no winning like ugh
You sound like a genuinely good person. I noticed a lot of girls like you too. You should put up a GoFundme page so people can donate to you. You are helping people by explaining exactly what this illness is and what it is not. :)
A Q&A would be pretty cool. I don't know much about schizophrenia, but you seem really mentally strong and I'm actually wondering how you stay so mentally strong like you do. Not trying to be weird or personal
Very interesting but people also need to remember that schizophrenia is sort of a blanket term, just like autism. Each individual can vary extensively, and the definition covers a very wide area of afflicted people, what affects one won't affect another.
For me, when I had fear, it was a scary feeling that would create a mirage for me that was more of a delusion but there to me. It would shock my mind. I've gone through delirium and other states where I've seen bleeding eyed people and dead people and a bunch of other stuff, but my hallucinations like yours were delusions of impressions.
I might have schizophrenia but I also have a lot of mental disorders and everyone is just blaming my depression but hey don’t know how I feel and I’m afraid to tell my therapist that I hear voices :/
Thank you for sharing- Thank you for keep on going- i do not have this mental issue- believe me- everyday it is struggle to keep on going- different issues- still it is hard- keep sharing please- keep sting!!! M-
Looking at videos across the internets about people with this issue, man, you guys always look exhausted. Is that just from the constant looking over the shoulder from the paranoia, sapping your energy?
Who says that what you see isn't real. everyone's reality is a reflection of what's in their minds anyways. you have a gift where your unconscious splatters over your reality, like a psychedelic trip. It can be a nightmare or an amazing dream. I've tripped on psychedelics many times and a lot of what youre saying is exactly what a trip is. and the one thing I've learned is life is the real trip. you should try embracing it and see what it is that's supposively "crazy". I think schizophrenia is a doorway to spiritual higher consciousness that breaks the barriers of societal thinking. and there's a lot powerful creative energy in so-called mental illnesses, that i think medication destroys.
Question about the clothing topic, do you ever go through fits of heavily giving a shit about appearance only to have no results. I have this disorder and relate to the "not giving a shit" look but sometimes go through a week of wanting to wear sick shit, but get talked out of it, as a result of the voices. (obviously)
I have traces of this illness. Some doctors I've been to just don't want to put a label on it. I can tell you this, everybody is different. Just because one person with this illness has some symptoms, doesn't mean its going to be the same for someone else. I don't even recall hallucinating visual or auditory like symptoms. I do however experienced paranoia but thats it. I don't even feel paranoid or anxious 24/7 nowadays. I just feel like everything is dull and grey. Maybe its just because I have traces and not having full blown like symptoms; but just because its not full blown, doesn't mean what i'm saying is false.
Maybe its ridiculous but you reminds me River Phoenix. But full apart of yor good looking you're such and strong person cause i know it's not easy to live with schizophrenia (my closest cousin live with it and its hard to see her hallucinate, sometimes she doesnt sleeps its really hard) it's a life challenge but God bless you and wish you the best.
I've had tactile hallucinations before my paranoid schizophrenia diagnosis, it was bugs under my skin at first and then a spider like a tarantula size on my neck, and i tried swiping it off but it was as if my fingers went straight through it and I thought "It better not bite me" and then it did and i freaked out so I ran to the mirror to look for red marks because I truly felt it.
My son describes it as living in the twilight zone. My son doesnt hear voices or see things, but definitely has the delusions that everyone is trying to ruin his life, although he cant explain why anyone would want to do this to him. Question? Do you try, or have you tried switching your meds to see if one is more affective for you? Have you tried the injectable anti psychotic? It would be great if there was a med that worked as well on the negative symtoms as well as the positive symptomes.
Just a tip. Don't EVER take Ambien to go too sleep, it will make your hallucinations unimaginably worse. Just want you too know:) I wish you all the best with this illness.

That little smile when you talked about hanging out with her :D good to see you happy
I don't appreciate people wanting to kill me either. Like how rude can they be GAWD
I know right? There's a camera right up in the sky that's watching me right now and broadcasting and I don't know if you're in on it but it's broadcasting across the universe and I heard them last night recording and they stuffed up its so fucking rude honestly like they don't even try

"I don't appreciate people trying to kill me" "its so rude when they talk when im trying to sleep" XD love his humor about it
Dont want to sound shallow or something but you're incredibly good looking!
you do sound shallow. getting sick of these comments and women thinking this kind of behavior is okay. if men do it its catcalling/objectifying.
+noah I'm sorry no one ever complimented the way you look so you dont know shit about it but as long as its not overly sexual or something its actually ok to compliment someone. So stop being petty(:

Did you find that stress made your symptoms worse? Do you have triggers? what are your triggers? Suggested topics.
Dude, nothing but good vibes for you man. You have amazing self-control. I hope everything works well in your life.
thank you so much for your videos. My cousin who I grew up with was diagnosed with schizophrenia about a year ago.

Having trouble dealing with my own illness lately. Keep spreading the word man. Well wishes.
Those hallucinations sound so scary
Creepy demon girls always freak me out! You're really brave facing that every day
I also have schizophrenia, and I love your videos, they make me feel less alone in my thoughts, you are awesome. and yes, I have noticed I also don't care about looks at all, I look kinda like complete trash.... random question, if you have had a positive hallucination, what's your favorite and what was it like?
+Andy Jones nope... but I have long conversations with voices in my head, but I have less visual and more auditory hallucinations
+Andy Jones Huh, most of the time for me, my visual hallucinations are normal, something you may expect, but something is always off...
Derpy Hooves I've had some positive ones!
Rad!

My lecturer linked us to watch your video! You have so much courage!
Glad to see you happy Jacob :-) you are doing good.

+IhaveSchizophrenia are you a fan of jimi Hendrix?
Can't argue with that!
Am a big fan of Jimmy Hendrix and I have schizophrenia
I'm so glad that you got out to see someone. It's good to be with people you trust.
I just woke up too & so happy to see you uploaded a vid :)
Hey man, you should really look into Sarcosine. I've been schizophrenic since i was a kid and this stuff saved me. All my suicidal thoughts and paranoia are gone and i only take the sarcosine, no rx.

You should do a vid on bipolar disorder. I have it and it would mean a lot if you made one. Even if you don't know much it's good to be educated.
You should a q&a video ,we wanna get to know you more. Much love xxxx
i have your next topic: How schizophrenia affects romantic relationships
My baby brother was just diagnosed with schizophrenia recently. We haven't spoken in many years but I'm hoping that these videos will help me understand what he's going through when we do meet again.
Omg i just discovered your channel and you just uploaded
interesting videos. here for you man. good luck.
You're doing great dude :) not many cope with this like you do
I would really like to hear you say something more about your lsd experience, which you've mentioned in some other video...Because I think it might have brought me negative symptoms. I'm in a sort of a permanent trip, part of me just 'stayed there'.. but luckily no positive symptoms
anyway, keep up, love you
Hey, this is really interesting to watch, and I can imagine especially helpful for those going through Schizophrenia themselves!
Well wishes to you :)
I find it really interesting to learn about this topic! & I would have never guessed you had an illness if you weren't talking about it.
I'm sorry you have to live with this but you seem to handle it pretty well at this point. & I just have to mention your a very good looking guy hopefully you can find an amazing person to spend your life with!
i see so much diffrence in ur behaviour from a first video u posted. It seems ur doing so much better. Ur awsome!
Btw you're still beautiful. I love the way you're talking and the sound of your voice..
Do a Q&A!
Can you do a video about schizophrenia and creativity? Did you ever have any creative periods?
Thank you for posting this video, it's comforting to see how someone else deals. The paranoia is constant, and distracting. How do you handle the everyday struggles? Are you upfront with everyone concerning your mental health, employers, co-workers, friends, etc? I personally don't share the information with anyone in my professional life for fear of stigma.

I no this is an old video but it helps so much keep making videos
i dont have schizophrenia but I have severe OCD and its always the worst at night I can never sleep bc of my compulsions. Mental illness likes to show up in the worst situations!
You're lucky that you don't give a fuck about your appearance but you're still completely gorgeous
how come people dont care about their appearance and they have amazing hair but i comb my hair and try to make it nice and i look like a fucking cassowary with a feather disease like wtf
+Nepenthesis honestly meeeee omg
Briannah Maria i think i look pretty similar to this guy (face) except for the hair so i look fucking dumb unless i get a buzz cut but then i look like a neo nazi so theres just no winning like ugh
You are looking better and happy Jacob, I really wish you the best of luck
+Nepenthesis Cut your hair on the sites short and your front long.
other video ideas would be to tell us more about your life experiences! maybe story times, 50 facts about me tag, etc.
You sound like a genuinely good person. I noticed a lot of girls like you too. You should put up a GoFundme page so people can donate to you. You are helping people by explaining exactly what this illness is and what it is not. :)

I've gone through delirium and other states where I've seen bleeding eyed people and dead people and a bunch of other stuff, but my hallucinations like yours were delusions of impressions.
You look great in this video by the way, have a good one!
First of all. Insanely attractive. Second of all this is the best video I have seen so far about this illness
New subscriber, i really like your personality!! I'm just wondering why are your pupils dilated?
probably because of medication
Inside Out Burger Might uh, just be dim in his room.
Arthur Dent there's a small possibility it's due to the dim room
people that have schizophrenia their eyes dialate often
Courtney Bradley not true, it may be from the medications he is taking like the antipsychotics
Can you please do a video on anxiety/panic disorder? Thank you, I love your videos :)
I might have schizophrenia but I also have a lot of mental disorders and everyone is just blaming my depression but hey don’t know how I feel and I’m afraid to tell my therapist that I hear voices :/
I love your way of thinking :). Love your videos!
You could do a video of what kind of hallucinations you have, what they are like, and how they affect your everyday life.
stay strong man...being crazy sucks, i know...
Thank you for sharing- Thank you for keep on going- i do not have this mental issue- believe me- everyday it is struggle to keep on going- different issues- still it is hard- keep sharing please- keep sting!!! M-
Your a lovely person and I wish you get well I wish you all the happiness please god help this nice young man.
I'm a new subscriber from korea. I like your story! 🙋🏻
Looking at videos across the internets about people with this issue, man, you guys always look exhausted. Is that just from the constant looking over the shoulder from the paranoia, sapping your energy?
My heart really goes out to you man. It sucks that you have to deal with this crap. Have you ever had religious delusions.
Who says that what you see isn't real. everyone's reality is a reflection of what's in their minds anyways. you have a gift where your unconscious splatters over your reality, like a psychedelic trip. It can be a nightmare or an amazing dream. I've tripped on psychedelics many times and a lot of what youre saying is exactly what a trip is. and the one thing I've learned is life is the real trip. you should try embracing it and see what it is that's supposively "crazy". I think schizophrenia is a doorway to spiritual higher consciousness that breaks the barriers of societal thinking. and there's a lot powerful creative energy in so-called mental illnesses, that i think medication destroys.
I'm the same way when it comes to clothes. I've got like five shirts. lol
Just a quick genuine question. when you say you only have 5 shirts are you including the one on your wall as well?
Question about the clothing topic, do you ever go through fits of heavily giving a shit about appearance only to have no results. I have this disorder and relate to the "not giving a shit" look but sometimes go through a week of wanting to wear sick shit, but get talked out of it, as a result of the voices. (obviously)
its like being stuck in a horror movie, or being haunted 24/7
I have traces of this illness. Some doctors I've been to just don't want to put a label on it. I can tell you this, everybody is different. Just because one person with this illness has some symptoms, doesn't mean its going to be the same for someone else. I don't even recall hallucinating visual or auditory like symptoms. I do however experienced paranoia but thats it. I don't even feel paranoid or anxious 24/7 nowadays. I just feel like everything is dull and grey. Maybe its just because I have traces and not having full blown like symptoms; but just because its not full blown, doesn't mean what i'm saying is false.
I wish I could make videos about my schizo-affective disorder. I really feel it would be therapeutic.... I'm afraid of negative comments
i really REALLY like your face and i'm straight, damn boi well done :)
Maybe its ridiculous but you reminds me River Phoenix. But full apart of yor good looking you're such and strong person cause i know it's not easy to live with schizophrenia (my closest cousin live with it and its hard to see her hallucinate, sometimes she doesnt sleeps its really hard) it's a life challenge but God bless you and wish you the best.
I've had tactile hallucinations before my paranoid schizophrenia diagnosis, it was bugs under my skin at first and then a spider like a tarantula size on my neck, and i tried swiping it off but it was as if my fingers went straight through it and I thought "It better not bite me" and then it did and i freaked out so I ran to the mirror to look for red marks because I truly felt it.
But no marks it was just in my head
He is so right. I also live this way
can you do another one about self care?
"I don't appreciate people trying to kill me!" XD Golden!
My son describes it as living in the twilight zone. My son doesnt hear voices or see things, but definitely has the delusions that everyone is trying to ruin his life, although he cant explain why anyone would want to do this to him. Question? Do you try, or have you tried switching your meds to see if one is more affective for you? Have you tried the injectable anti psychotic? It would be great if there was a med that worked as well on the negative symtoms as well as the positive symptomes.
Thank you for sharing your story
When I have psychotic episodes I also have the delusion that everyone wants to kill me. It's such a scary thing to experience.
I have schizophrenia too. it sucks!!!! I am really trying to get back to my old self!!!! but it's hard....
The clothing thing rings true with me too. Paranoia is awful. 😝
THank you for doing this
I have schizophrenia, too. It sucks but a least i do not have any serious syptoms anymore.
well and I thought catching gonorrhea once was the end of my life :/
Just a tip. Don't EVER take Ambien to go too sleep, it will make your hallucinations unimaginably worse. Just want you too know:) I wish you all the best with this illness.
