Your presentation is brilliant. As a person who lives with bipolar and have friends with a range of mental illness I find your work great re: commpassion and understanding. Thankyou. Xx
Can you elaborate more on delusional jealousy disorder? The last 7 months I went through torture dealing with someone who exhibited this condition, but there were other delusions and paranoid behavior. Noone was believing me until I recently was allowed to record her. She's in the hospital now. But I'm not sure if I'll ever recover or if she'll ever get better. Noone understands what I went through and how much I was suffering in silence. She was just committed on the 22nd of this month.
Hi from Canada. I heard about Dr. Das from the sensational Skibiki trial in Winnipeg Manitoba. First I was shocked about how he testified however I reviewed some of his podcasts and now I am a fan. Thanks Dr. Das. You are demystifying a very mystical profession as a psychiatrist. Psychiatrists are gods to those who suffer.
Thank you for putting so much effort into your channel, mental health is a subject that desperately needs to be presented to the public in a clear and helpful manner. I found out about you from the boys over at ICMAP 🙌. Best of luck with your channel, thanks again.
Hello from Romania! I'm so glad I found your podcast, I will work in a very short time as a forensic psychiatrist, so I need as much of an insight that I could get, so I'm very grateful for all the information you give us.. if you can tell me please where can I find a book on forensic psychiatric interview, I would be forever grateful. Good luck with your work! 🤗
We had about two minutes of discussion about delusional patients during EMT training. Definitely could have used this video instead! You have a gift for using personal experience to engage and educate.
Very informative. Thank you so much. I was wondering if you have any advice on how to deal with people who have delusional thoughts? It can just be so frustrating.
When I was nursing in Scotland a patient who had a mood disorder was becoming hypomanic. She was feeling great so decided to go on holiday. Two members of staff had to meet her and bring her back from Vienna. I think she had a great time
I’ve come from Shaun Atwood’s channel after seeing your chat with him about your new book that is coming out early next year. I’m off to order it now Sohom. I mention in my comment on your chat with Shaun that I wish I’d gone into psychiatry instead of law but here I am living my medical degrees vicariously through people like you. I really enjoyed this and have just one piece of advice for those of us who are watching to learn and not just for entertainment. Slides showing how the various diagnoses relate (or don’t) to each other would be super helpful. Seeing the key requisites and specific things hat separate one from another in black and white as you move along the spectrum of disorders would be really good in my opinion🤷🏻♀️👌
That's sad about Ms C and her paranoia. It could well be that people around her were taking advantage of her paranoia and winding her up more. Then again, she shouldn't have taken drugs.
I was introduced to your channel through your guest spot with Kimbyrleigha. I'm working through your content from the beginning and really enjoying it! So very interesting.
Thankyou! Followed you since you first were on with shaun. I’m excited for your weekly episodes. I was wondering if you could do females in the CJS and borderline personality order as offenders, symptoms they display, etc or if you have any experience stories. Thankyou as always for another brill vid
I think ur the best psychiatric Dr by far with ur podcasts I have a few MH diagnosis including Borderline personality disorder, was diagnosed with BPD 20+years ago and caused me alot of problems and consequences I even suffered psychotic scale end of BPD a few yrs ago where I had Hallucinations high as a kite, no sleep seeing beatles stuck to my feet Also other weird stuff and voices which felt i needed to do which were very unrealistic I was reading ppls minds I had to be given anti psychotics to calm it all down Also have Eating disorder, OCD, GAD, Social anxiety, Body dismorphia and my, life is torture 24/7. I find ur videos So helpful Thank you for sharing them
wish they hadnt changed the layout of youtube.... now i see the subscribed button dark n think ive already liked it coz its right near the like button now so if i watch any i havent 'liked' pls know its coz of that .... im only a new sub n loving this channel ... this one tis especially interesting xxx
A really interesting subject - delusions. Do you think it’s on the increase due to external circumstances (social media or family breakdowns) or is it primarily suffering that’s internal? Are they all behaviours which deflect from trauma for instance? Are they triggered from external circumstances? Or are these delusions simply emerging from over valued ideas ? Why do delusions persist even when patients are medicated ? Can therapy work alongside meds effectively ? And work better ? Why are some people prone to delusions as opposed to those that aren’t ? Can someone with chronic delusions be treated successfully as an outpatient in a failing nhs appointment system ? Or are there better results when treated as an inpatient? Thank you Dr Das. A great presentation.
Doctor, dear doctor! Your Russian patient might not have opened up to you because of your fabulous clinical skills or blisteringly good looks, but I don't think you were a random choice. Patients prone to delusions, psychoses -- when their minds are hijacked by fantasy -- they become victims to the worst in human behavior in other people, including among hospital staff, and certainly among prison staff. Once the worst of their episode is past, they seem acutely aware of the motives of those around them. When these patients sense a genuinely genuine individual who genuinely wishes to help them, and who genuinely tries to understand them, and who genuinely respects them, they see someone they can trust to genuinely help anchor them to reality. They see perhaps their only ally, and certainly their only ally on the locked ward or in prison. The Russian woman saw in you a genuinely genuine good guy, there to help her. Genuinely!
In the Johnny Depp v Amber Heard trial, The lawyers Kept trying to call the expert witness “paid witness”. I think know that they do this to try and undermine the credibility of the expert. Does this happen to you a lot? If so, Is it super frustrating?
I love your videos, they are really informative! I was wondering if the side effects of first-generation antipsychotics and atypical antipsychotics are different? I was once given atypical ones for over half a year (to temporarily prevent my panic attacks) and only now have I heard of the side effects.
I have some psychologists and nurses in the family. They seem like the most “far off” people in the family. We actually have a secret code in the family. How does a mental health worker stay grounded?
I’m a former psychiatric nurse. Close working relationships help, especially when there is tension in the air. And to be honest, many of us have quite a dark sense of humour. I think that is the case for many people working in stressful
Thank you @APsychForSoreMinds for your fascinating and enlightening videos. Have you dared to take on the American QAnon conspiracy and its detrimental effect on individual mental health, specifically, and societal stability, generally? It would be particularly appropo.
My son believes he can go through "portals" into other realms. He also sees demons in his peripheral vision. Otherwise, he is healthy, has been self supporting for 20 years and you would never know he has these thoughts unless he admitted them. He seems normal, hard working, and humorous. What do you think?
What happens if a person with "body dysmorphia" *is* actually ugly or deformed, when considering conventional beauty standards? Consider the hypothetical case of a person with a significant facial, dental, or skeletal deformity. Suppose that, as a result of this deformity, the affected individual is extremely self conscious and avoids social interaction. Would this count as body dysmorphia?
From personal experience, there's very little you can do regarding comforting them. You can, of course, be caring, sympathetic to their distress and show affection if it's appropriate, but the delusion will still cause them distress and no amount of logic will dissuade them of the delusion. The best we could do was to keep a close eye on them to make sure that they didn't self harm, let them know we cared and loved them and get them professional help.
A belief that devil exists is not a delusion, it’s a belief. You can’t just go around and dismiss all beliefs you don’t share in this way. You are being bloody delusional thinking it’s “in sync with your educational background”.
BUT SOMETIMES THE PARENTS ARE NARCISSIST AND THAT IS PAINFUL IF YOU STRUGGLE WITH PSYCHOSIS OR PSYCHOTIC DISORDERS AND THE ONLYY THING YOU CAN DO IS TO LASH OUT!! AND THEY ARE ADDICTED TO DRUGS BECAUSE OF THE TRAUMA BOUNDING AND IT GET'S MUCH MORE HARD IF YOU ARE A EMPHAT....
I have a question I know I am late to the video but I just found you. My brother I am almost sure has schizophrenia but refuses to ever be truthful with doctors. He believes his in-laws and the police have implanted mind control chips. This is just one of his problems. My question has to do with drug induced psychosis. If the patient still has delusions while off of drugs is it still called drug induced psychosis? He is a methamphetamine addict and has fought with it for a long time. So when he was in his 20's he thought someone had been in his attic and got a shot gun out and ran around his house with it, pointing it up at his ceiling while his wife and 2 young kids were absolutely terrified and crying. After this he was admitted to a mental health facility for 2-3 days and they said he had just been up to long and was having drug induced psychosis. This was like 10+ years ago and after this he just basically never returned to what or who he was. He still has delusional thoughts even during his sober times and after years of hiding how he truly feels he is not getting any mental health except for very basic depression medication from his primary doctor. Mental illness and addiction is a huge problem in our family history and sadly my brother has told himself that he is only normal while abusing drugs. I have no idea how to help him he is absolutely terrifying at times and I am constantly afraid I will get a phone call saying that he hurt his wife and kids or even our parents. He is in his early 30's now and any time we have got him to go to a mental health facility he completely lies to the doctors and just talks his way out of the facility. I just have no idea what can be done.
I remember my bird on the plane to Spain reading that " Book" she was dead quiet really into it , so I said what's that book about?? She said " well it's about this guy who has all these mistresses , he punishes and spanks them when there naughty , makes them do things they don't want to do, and basically just uses the women for his own sexual gratification! So I looked at her and said " I didn't know you had started reading the Koran !!!! 😄😄😄😄

What lovely praise, Binni,
Do me a favour and tell everybody about this channel. I need more subs!

I'm so sorry you had to go through that.
"or a psychiatrist doing TH-cam podcasts in order to get rich and famous"
Love it, made me smile 😎
Mr vetch! my man...
I laughed... cry for help perhaps?! 🤣

Sohom, this has been one of my favourite episodes in terms of technical information (sadly for the patients) thank you.

Very informative. Thank you so much. I was wondering if you have any advice on how to deal with people who have delusional thoughts? It can just be so frustrating.
I love these longer videos!
Fascinating and clearly explained, thanks 👍 I really hope you teach or mentor....we need an army of mental health professionals with your outlook.

Keep watching x
Ugh, the music. Everything else is great. But anything we can do about the music? Thanks!
Extremely interesting info, brilliantly presented. Thanks Dr Das.
My pleasure!
Love your channel 💕
Takes a great video to keep me in for a long video
You rock 👍💕💯
You rock!
That's sad about Ms C and her paranoia. It could well be that people around her were taking advantage of her paranoia and winding her up more.
Then again, she shouldn't have taken drugs.
Another brilliant video.
I would be really interested in your views on the importance of sleep on mental I’ll health?
I don't think you need to. It's generally accepted that good sleep is essential for mental well-being.
Fascinating
A terrific video!

What is the reason that treatment can’t be forced in prison?

Yo Morski,
Thanks for the props.
Ask me on an AMA video on this channel, and I will try to respond.
I have some psychologists and nurses in the family. They seem like the most “far off” people in the family. We actually have a secret code in the family.

Thank you @APsychForSoreMinds for your fascinating and enlightening videos. Have you dared to take on the American QAnon conspiracy and its detrimental effect on individual mental health, specifically, and societal stability, generally? It would be particularly appropo.
Hi LC,
I only know the very basics about QAnon. However, when I find some time I'll look into it. Thanks.

Otherwise, he is healthy, has been self supporting for 20 years and you would never know he has these thoughts unless he admitted them. He seems normal, hard working, and humorous. What do you think?

Hey Doc, can those handed the IPP sentence who have never been released become deluded as a direct result of the IPP sentence?
I'm a trans woman with a diagnosis of gender dysphoria. Can you make a video on this with the current controversy if it is or is not a mental illness?
What is it called where some one thinks they have died many times
Irony talking killers... Here you are every thumbnail with a smile on ur face, centre of attention 😂😂😂 aha

Consider the hypothetical case of a person with a significant facial, dental, or skeletal deformity. Suppose that, as a result of this deformity, the affected individual is extremely self conscious and avoids social interaction. Would this count as body dysmorphia?
Not if he actually HAS a deformity. It’s only dysmorphia if the belief is unreasonable/untrue.
Awesome work. Lets be TH-cam Friends!
Soo0o many questions!!
Yet so little time...
Hahaha ! Hopefully you will become rich and famous !
can a person with delusion know he have delusion , before consulting ?
Mhmm
Is there much you can do to comfort some one from distressing delusions if your not a doctor but a loved one?

Hey. I've done some videos on drug-induced psychosis. Check them out. Might answer your questions.
