Hello Matthew, thank you from The Netherlands, Europe! I have the same experience in music as you do & dancing too. I danced a lot in my life, one thing I got out of the clearings of the darkness and negativity I am still hearing, feeling is that I feel I am one with the music. I am 12 years fighting 24/7 to get it out of me. What is interesting for me is that everyone seems to believe the illness comes from drinking, smoking etc… I have drinking alcohol for a long time but have not since the illness started. As you have not been drinking alcohol it is impossible that is the cause. Why would it be for one person and not another. That is important information for me. I do still smoke sigarettes but feel more and more wanting them to go too now. I eat biological foods most days but I also have the days I am in so much pain I cannot cook. I need to watch more of your videos’s on when and how your illness started but what I seem to see a lot in common in people with voices (I have those, and they are loud!) and hallucinations is spirituality or religious beliefs. I am out of work for 12 years but Iearned gardening, drawing, painting my house, painting my furniture. It takes a long time but I do it, sometimes I do not even understand how I was able to paint…. I am so happy for you you recovered! I have been and seen many places, including Canada and USA, never any fears or exhaustion, voices or seeing energies or spirits fly, or panic attacks for 42 years. This illness is the opposite of what life can be really like. I hope you still get to do all you want to do. Thank you for sharing your experiences, it means a lot to me. Regards from Dorine. ( I recently found Lauren too, I have so much respect for her!)
Thank you so much, Dorine, for your comment! Nice to meet you! I'm glad you enjoy dancing too! Isn't it amazing! And to think early in my recovery I couldn't listen to my favourite songs and I wasn't able to dance - it was too much for me emotionally. It was a few years or so before I could listen to my favourite songs. It sounds like you have been in a fairly stable state, although not 100% good health, for a long time, which is good; when your life is chaotic and not stable, it makes things more difficult. I'm glad there are things you get to do that you enjoy, like gardening and painting. Isn't it amazing when we look back on things and think, "How did I do it?!?!" Navy SEALs are taught they are capable of 20x more than they think they are. And mental illness can make us do things we didn't think we were capable of too, right? Please check out these resources on how to quit smoking: "Free From Addiction" - book by Morteza Khaleghi Allen Carr's book “Easy Way to Stop Smoking” - www.allencarr.com - his methods have been used by Sir Richard Branson and Sir Anthony Hopkins I'm glad I could be helpful for you! Keep working on your recovery and remember we never know what tomorrow may bring. Some day they may find a cure for this disease! Please check out my best mental health and schizophrenia resources here: www.mindaid.ca/mental-health-tips Remember, you're AMAZING!
I rally appreciate your experience as it helps me understand what my son is going through and how he maybe thinking. It's hard to live with him as he is in one world and me in another. Thanks

Thank you so much for your video. I don't have schizophrenia but my loved one was diagnosed. It was quite helpful hearing your experience with your recovery.
Thank you for your kind words! Please check out Lauren Kennedy's "Living Well With Schizophrenia" TH-cam channel, and my list of best mental health tips at my MindAid.ca website.
I just wanted to share with you what has really helped me with schizophrenia. I recommend oregano oil capsules with a minimum 125mg of carvacrol (I have 2-3 times a day, do not take more than 600mg). Also I eat olives in brine (6 each time twice a day). Also I take one fish oil capsule (twice a day at 1000mg) or cod liver oil capsule, in case your wondering both are omega 3 fish oil but cod liver oil has vitamin A. All these things are anti inflammatory which should help a lot with schizophrenia and are healthy. I occasionally take a natural (Naturelo) multivitamin and mineral capsule. I'm not sure if 20mg olanzapine is the best anti psychotic medication but it's what I take. I might try quetiapine and if it does not work out default back to olanzapine. I feel like I am in remission.
That's great that you've done some research and are taking some supplements that work for you. It's great you're looking after yourself! I take a fish oil capsule, gingko biloba and vitamin D. Sometimes I take a multivitamin, but that is off and on when I take that. So olives in brine and oregano oil are anti-inflammatory? I didn't know that. Thanks for sharing! Glad to hear you feel like you're in remission! Please check out my best mental health and schizophrenia resources here: www.mindaid.ca/mental-health-tips Remember, you're AMAZING!
Thank you for posting this. I am absorbing as much as i can from TH-cam to equip me to love and support a young person who jas recently been diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder. I love what you say at the very end. Yes, Lauren and Rob on their channel Living Well With Schizophrenia has been a godsend too. ❤
You should look into the ketogenic diet, Dr. Chris Palmer & Dr. Georgia Ede, are healing people into full remission. There is also a youtuber who is blogging her keto journey, so far with promising results better than medications, "living well on schizophrenia" I think is the name of the channel. I hope this helps your friend.

Well, if we could actually cocktail all those neurochemicals into one street drug, I imagine it would be like a rollercoaster ride through the depths of hell and the pearly gates of heaven at the same time. You'd be so high that you'd think you were a unicorn flying through a rainbow, but then you'd crash so hard that you'd feel like a snail stuck in molasses. But thank goodness we don't have to resort to that kind of experimentation because our brains are already equipped with the perfect cocktail mixer. It's like having your own personal bartender in your head, constantly serving up delicious shots of dopamine, norepinephrine, anandamide, endorphins, and serotonin. And when we're in flow, it's like we're at the best bar in town, sipping on the most exquisite blend of pleasure drugs that our brains can produce. It's like winning the jackpot in the neurochemical lottery, and we're all in it to win it. So, let's raise a glass to flow, the most addictive experience on Earth. And who needs drugs when you've got a brain that can mix 'em better than any street dealer? Cheers!
Either way i got schizophrenia from drinking or drugs but i am also on my of recovery......Since almost 2 days i dont hear voices nor feel like someones inside of my body. I know im gonna come crashing down again since you are explaining how youre improvements were. Thank you so much for this Video. I have a chance of recovery this is a wonder for me.
Also i was 100% there there was nothing there and i was like back again like when i was 19yrs old. I dont know what exaclty for some mean recovery but for me i was back 100%. For some is recovery to be good and you are going to still have it but for me it means fully healed.
@@Morning_Dew15 Interesting, I hadn't heard that either. The body and mind can certainly create some unique experiences for us. I am in the 25% of people with schizophrenia who don't hallucinate. If you feel like elaborating on what it feels like to have someone in your body, I'd be interested to know.
I'm glad I could be helpful for you! Please stay hopeful. We never know what tomorrow may bring. There are armies of people working in labs to try to find a cure for this. Who knows what they could find someday! Keep working on your recovery. You matter. You are a masterpiece. You are needed in this world. The future isn't written, and things can change. Things can be tough, yes, but we are capable of so much more than we think we are. And if we think we shouldn't bother doing something because we aren't able to feel happy doing anything, I think it's important to do things anyway, even if we we can't feel happy doing them. Because we have a life to live and we should try doing the things that would ordinarily make us feel good. Because when we look back on our lives we will be able to say, "I did that anyway!"

You got this bro I had very similar symptoms even as a non religious person I had religious delusions and hallucinations my psychiatrist saved my life it is never a bad idea to seek help
Loving the video so far!! I always forget about the concept of “post traumatic growth,” thank you :) Also, the vase analogy reminds me of this Japanese art of repairing broken ceramics/pottery/etc - using gold (the metal, + lacquer). Kintsugi is what it’s called, and it’s really beautiful! The idea is that, instead of seamlessly hiding the fractures, it celebrates the broken veins, and the fact that the piece is whole again 💜
I just found your channel ~5 min ago, beginning with this video! I’m curious: do you know/have you known any fellow people with schizophrenia who (successfully) manage the condition without medication?
Do you know Abram Hoffer and Niacin for Schizophrenia ? I didnt listened your whole video. I don’t have schizophrenia, but depression. I suggest you take a look at his videos. He runned the Saskatchewan mental hospital and used Niacin to treat thousands of people when there was no treatment except ECT.
hello..iam someone whose closest family member is suffering from schizophrenia at 30 and she has completely withdrawn any contact with me , she doesnt even want my presence and i have no idea how should i react to this or how am i supposed to help her as we are similar aged...i just dont wanna make things worse for her and i want to ease her pain...
Best thing I would say is to take her to get professional help coming from a schizophrenic when you are in psychosis it is near impossible to understand what they are experiencing
Hey I just found this channel. I recently started dating my boyfriend and he just revealed to mw his schzophrenia diagnosis, he's been in and out of ghe hospital and he recently got his own apartment. He wants to work, do you rhink this is possible? Can he work and live a normal life.
Yes, many people with schizophrenia work. The more we talk about it, the more we can understand how to help someone with schizophrenia do their job. Look up "The 7 Myths of Schizophrenia" article online, and Lauren Kennedy's "Living Well With Schizophrenia" TH-cam channel, and my best mental health (and schizophrenia) tips at www.MindAid.ca.
Good book to read and fairly recent. The ghost Garden inside the lives of schizophrenia’s feared and forgotten by Susan Doherty. Based on real life people.
What is the "correct" route. My son was born with a high IQ and after being in prison for 2 years he came out with severe mental health issues. I'm sure being in prison played a part,but millions of people go to prison and come back "normal". They told me that he had multiple times of substance abuse. Where do I start helping him. He is currently in a hospital. He is taking respiritol.
