Hi everyone! We finally hit 5 million subscribers. Thanks for all the support! We will keep doing our best to make a difference in the world for you guys. In the mean time, someone made a reaction video of us. What are your thoughts? th-cam.com/video/UKwjDbkdyK0/w-d-xo.html
From a schizophrenic, please don’t self-diagnose. I know a diagnosis is hard to get these days and the healthy system is a joke, but misdiagnosing yourself does more harm than good.
I really don't want to self-diagnose myself in fear that I actually don't have the thing, trying to find someone who would help and diagnose me is extremely difficult
@@idkmanitsme8948 I know it’s scary, but it’s much better to get the confirmation from a psychiatrist because it could be something else. The fear lasts momentarily, you get relief from knowing and getting it over with when you’re done
Cant tell mother :( Idk what to do... I feel tapping yes Everywhere Yes Voices started coming More and more I believe theyre trying to control me I have felt crawing on my body :/ multiple times.
I think i just have memory problems and delusional due to stress school is giving me, i mean i overthink and do some stupid shit if I'm stressed so i think I don't have schizophrenia.
finally someone gets it. Those who claim to be schizophrenias on youtube aren't. They just want attention and are self "diagnosed". Those who suffer won't be on youtube for starters.
About 3 years ago, I was diagnosed with Schizophrenia and DID. Life has been terrible, like I try to keel it cool and calm, but ultimately it fails. I still going to push through, I don't want to give up. I hope those who suffer from mental disorders find that light at the end of the tunnel.
My friend would've benefited from this video. Sadly, he took his life in October 2013 just a mere day after his diagnosis of paranoid schizophrenia. 💔 His mother and sister created an organization in his honor shortly after. Still going strong to this day.
I myself was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia too. And I attempted suicide in 2015 by sleeping pills. I still don't know if it was luck or bad luck that I survived, because I still have false beliefs even though I can clarify them by myself. Auditory hallucinations also attack me occasionally. I find myself incompetent, study more with poorer result compared to healthy people. And spending an enormous amount of time trying to learn and manage to deal with the symptoms, with my career and social life behind everyone. I was once an excellent student in class, but now it's all disappointment.
@@halcyon.89 I was diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder after spending eight days in a mental hospital, all while finishing an associate's in graphic design. I was a week away from finishing the program, to be specific. I still have the usual intrusive thoughts, the visual/auditory/tactile hallucinations. I can only manage through the thoughts by making art and writing. Writing is the only way I can purge my feelings. The second I talk to someone, my voice is low, but not to a point of being barely above a whisper (which was the case when I was little). But the second I project it, it somehow comes off as if I'm yelling but unfortunately, this is exactly why I rarely talk to most people on the street. And also, for some reason, I would go off on the occasional tangents afterwards. That makes it all the more scary for me bc I thought (and still think) to this day that I'm an alien from another planet with no particular understanding of social cues. But, I send you love and virtual hugs. I only hope that others will normalize the conversation of mental health in general and find more resources in the future. ❤️
Condolences to your best friend and i have friends who are not schizophrenic but autistic and paranoid but ill always be ther for them because they meed me
@@rebelWP they literally say that if this is you that you should go see your doctor and NOT self-diagnose they’re not doing any harm by educating others
I'm diagnosed with ASD but many of my favorite people on this Earth are Schitzophrenic. I feel like they GET me. Don't ever let a diagnosis get you down or hold you back. 💜
Yes, I have had a few friends. Honestly, I had this horrible impression that people with schizophrenia were super scary and dangerous, but I liked the two girls I knew and didn't even know until one of them told me. They are humans too, and are a lot more like us than society makes them out to be. So yeah, I was naive to think that about people with schizophrenia.
You should see a therapist to get a diagnosis! It’s hard to objectively self diagnose, but if you suspect you may have it, and you end up being right, it’s best to treat it in its earlier stages.
i have maladaptive daydreaming. so when i was a child, i thought i have schizophrenia and i cant tell anyone because i thought they locked me in a hospital.
@@xxx-ed3sk oh thank u❤️❤️ i can handle it now but before i understand that i have maladaptive daydreaming, i waste my years actually😂 now its really funny to me but before that, i really suffer without knowing anything.. i hope u can handle it and get ur well deserved life too❤️
I have MD too, but never talked about it to any one growing up (rarely even now, so I am kind of scared to make this comment)... Sadly there is little research on MD yet. I am really sorry you had to make these experiences and hope you´re doing great now :)
@@bellaligator7137 actually i've been in this situation as long as i can remember and i thought it was normal ?? lol. one day a friend of mine saw me and said 'are you crazy?' then i realized that this is not normal. i still hadn’t know it was MD and i spent years with this anomaly. i had a hard time making friends. i could never study. after learning md, it seemed too late. but here i am, i am studying dental medicine. i know myself than anyone can do. i think md makes our brain work more. it makes us smarter. otherwise it's impossible to come here without working lol. i hope we all can rise very well. the important thing is to know and love yourself. yeah.. because of md, i really talk too much, if i open my mouth lol❤️
WELL, TRUST ME YOU'LL HAVE TO TRY VERY HARD TO FIND A SCHIZOPHRENIC WHO HASN'T HOPE, HOPE IS ALL WHAT A SCHIZO HAS. LOL.. THEY ARE NOT THAT CRAZY YOU THINK, IF THEY HAVE COME HERE, THEY HAVE HOPE. THEY KNOW EVERYTHING EVEN MORE THAN YOU. BUT THEY FIND IT HARD TO CATEGORIZE AND UTILIZE SUCH VAST AMOUNT OF INFORMATION AND STIMULAI. JUST DON'T ROAM AROUND AND MAKE THESE COMMENTS. I HOPE YOU FIND A ROPE NOPE JUST DOPE NO BUT A POPE. AAAAAAH I'M ANGRY..SRRRRYYYYYYYYYYYY
After all is said... Its still YOUR brain telling you these things. Embrace it and just go like "haha, yea yea.. that was a good one. You, silly Black - turban wearing Muslim, you!! And dont pretend You dont know;.. That I know you have been living in my sink for the last 3 weeks. Also stop hiding the pills, danggit." Just 'A' scenario
Great video to explain what schizophrenia is all about ! Hopefully everyone can take into account that it's not a joke having schizophrenia and that it is a very serious serious mental disorder and illness.
I was diagnosed with schizophrenia in 2017, what the video says is absolutely right. I have about 4 of those symptoms but they're easily dealt with; with medication and a lot of support from close friends and loved ones....... So if you do have schizophrenia I'm here to tell ya its not the end of the world my dude. You can still live a perfectly normal and fulfilling life, just takes some self awareness, some routines and communication
I feel so bad for the people who suffers from schizophrenia. It must be so difficult for them dealing with judgement from other people who aren't educated enough with the topic. To whoevee suffers from mental illnesses, I hope you'll get better soon!!
its can be hard but they way people treat me is absolutely the worst part of it to me, everyone assumes im dangerous or looks down on me , i simply want to exist and people fear me for it
@The Emo Enby Thembo nope I've finally stopped denying myself im not okay but I'm scared of therapists and psychiatrists and all that for no reason lmao but don't worry about me
@The Emo Enby Thembo i will eventually, i think the thing that frightens me about it is because my parents are there. thank you for worrying about me and trying to care though, that feels nice.
First watching this video made me realise that I had a few of the symptoms but didn't really think much of it, but after counselling and meetings with psychiatrists I was finally diagnosed a few weeks ago and given tips and medications to help and it's changed my life so thank you
Hey bro. I have only just realised in the past hour I might be prone to having it. Id say half of the onset symptoms for young adolescents are in me. But im afraid if I go and get diagnosed that maby it will limit me to jobs or something in the future. Can this mental illness limit you to certain things?
@@imaysillyduffer833 in my experience it hasn't effected much, I choose not to drive too much but since you don't have to tell anyone I haven't been made aware of any restrictions
I was diagnosed with schizophrenia a few years ago but never really looked into it till today. Watching this video really opened my eyes about myself cause a lot of the things in this video pertains to me. I recently got a mental health evaluation and a lot of the stuff on here was listed 😬
if youre aware, do you still belive people are coming for you, or the world is ending? i know u cant control if you hear voices or see things, but what about the other stuff
I have a friend with schizophrenia that has explained some of his issues. Aside from the visual hallucinations, he sometimes has moments where is brain tricks his memory. So while he thinks he stood up and put the milk away, and truly believes he did, he never actually got off the couch. His memory almost immediately omits something it was told and his family has called 911 when they found him sitting on his bed, staring into space for hours. To him, it was just a few minutes. He explained a bit of visual hallucinations but they aren't really relevant to my comment but all in all, I'm really happy I wasn't unfortunate enough to have this.
Im a schizopherenic, and the best part of it is i had no fear after age 37. I almost died that day, and i decided not to fear death anymore. I prayed to god and told him i was putting away my fear forever. Ive had no fear ever since.
There are no guarantee in life that you will have perfect health. Even if your thinking is perfect and your behavior is immaculate, though your risk may be much reduced for accident, illness or injury, you still have this risk because that is part of being in the world. People often want to eliminate the idea of risk. They do not like the idea that they have to live with risk, and so they believe, “There is really no injury or accident in the world. There is no sickness. It is all the result of human dysfunction, and if human dysfunction could be eliminated, well, there would be no accidents, injuries or illnesses.” Again, look at the world around you. Look at the plants and the animals. They all take a risk in living here. There are no guarantees that everything will go perfectly for them, that they will all live a long span of years. To be in life, you must be in life as it is not as you want it to be. To experience life, you must experience life as it is and not as you want it to be. Living The Way of Knowledge, Chapter 4: The Pillar of Health, by *Marshall Vian Summers*
I am not self diagnosing; I feel that a lot of this points to how I’ve been feeling for the past couple of months, (almost a year actually, I think) and how I’ve been behaving. Not only am I constantly paranoid about the inevitable or just absolutely bogus things happening or appearing (such as demons and monsters), but it keeps me up for so long at night because of how terrified I am of the darkness of the room, or the supposed breathing I hear in the corner of the room or underneath my bed, or my dead cat meowing outside my window. Some nights I wait until the sunrise so I can go to bed, and even then, I still press myself tightly against the wall, with minimal space to move, and shroud myself in my blankets and hide my face because I’m afraid of what I might see (I even cover my ears because I swear I can hear breathing that is not my own, a pair of heavy but slow footsteps on the carpet by my bed). My mind is constantly wondering in an endless daze and I’m always so paranoid and anxious. I hate being alone. I hate sleeping all alone, I hate closing my eyes when I’m alone. Some nights the paranoia is so bad that every single sound I hear has me twitching and whimpering uncontrollably; hugging myself, rocking myself, crying etc. I’ve been awfully catatonic too, not only constantly asking people to repeat what they said to me, but also not even being able to focus. I just wanna know what’s going on with me, I would totally tell my parents, but a few years ago I’d stopped talking to them about anything because they didn’t take me seriously. I’ve been bottling things up inside and it’s becoming painful. Mom’s literally LAUGHED at me when I told her that I felt like I was probably depressed or something and told her that I cry myself to sleep a lot and constantly have panic attacks. And I’m just afraid to tell dad anything because he’s so quick to anger. I just....don’t have anyone I can tell. I don’t feel safe. One of the reasons behind my anxiety and panic attacks are because I feel so alone, (I’m bi and non-binary and my folks are homophobic as well and transphobic and they’re always saying how that kind of thing is an abomination before the lord) and I don’t wanna have to explain myself and get thrown out or mess my relationship with my family up. I just wanna solve this some day (hopefully soon). I hate having to explain myself to people who don’t take me seriously or simply just don’t even try to understand because “it goes against what God says” or because I’m “too young to be feeling this way” or “it’s just a phase, you’ll grow out of it”. I just want a hug and some kind words, not a lecture and a quick “goodnight, sleep well” i never even get an “I love you”.
omg i get the same thing for sleeping, but my bed is in the middle of my room so i have to huddle as many things over me as possible, and cover my face as much as i can without suffocating myself. I also get thoughts of the footsteps being a pedophile or a rapist waiting for the perfect moment to strip the blankets off me and do it. I struggle with trust issues so badly i even think teachers at school are out to get me and that everyone at school secretly is plotting to kill me. i've had panic attacks at school but my teachers disregarded it as "just shyness". I'm super paranoid i can't be in the same room as a Bunsen Burner without thinking someone's gonna be set on fire at this point. I've even had hallucinations of my house burning down, which is one of my greatest fears. I've also got PTSD from almost drowning before, so that adds to the hallucinations. I also went through this period of time genuinely believing i was immortal and that nothing could stop me from living forever. I've had beliefs that my dad was a ghost before. it's not fair at this point. I can't tell my family about this because they won't believe me cuz i hide it from them, so i can seem "normal" around them. I can't talk to a psychiatrist because i struggle to talk about my emotions and what's going on inside because when i do i go off on inaudible tangents of slightly slurred speech as if i were drunk. I do desperately need to see a mental health professional but the mental health system in the UK is absolutely shite so i'll probably get misdiagnosed as anxiety or PTSD anyways. I hope you seek help random stranger and i hope i didn't trigger anything too bad , this was just my personal experience i wanted to share :,) ~𝑨𝒍𝒆𝒙 J🖤
I’m so sorry that you are going through this. These situations are so real it’s like real life😢I can’t imagine the turmoil you go through on a daily basis, especially with an aloof mom and easy to anger dad. You must feel so pent up inside, like a volcano about to erupt. But I advise you find some sort of outlet, whether it’s writing down your feeling in detail or take video diaries. Watch the movie A Beautiful Mind, it will be revolutionary for you. Read and research everything there is to know about schizophrenia. And idk ur religious believes but I am a Christian and I believe Christ can heal your mind. He sees your pain and your tears each time you cry😢I know that you have been hurt by the church and your parents, but God died for you. You were never supposed to have this crippling issue. He loves you and wants to heal and change you, you just have you accept him as your Lord and savior. I’ll tell you what, whenever you have a terrible nightmare, sleep paralysis, or hear that scary breathing or foot steps or a meowing, say: “I bind you spirit of paranoia and schizophrenia in the name of Jesus. You have no power! I know you’re there. With the sword of the spirit(which is the Bible), I cut down every lying spirit whispering in my ears in the name of Jesus and I commanded you to go to the pit! I plead the blood of Jesus over my mind, my body , and my entire room, even the windows. I speak peace over me in Jesus’ name amen.”
I found out that I have psychic powers and wasn't mentally ill. I proved it by changing certain lyrics of a song using thought broadcasting that only me and a friend can hear and recognized and the friend I proved it to freaked out in a way like a ghost was seen, sweating bullets, and their heart was racing which made me realize that I wasn't schizophrenic and people wasn't out to get me nor was they reading my mind like the symptoms of schizophrenia. Actually now they're telling me accurate information that they didn't even know or know why they even said it in the first place and then just brushes it off like it's nothing to be concerned about at all and move on as soon I'm done with them.... I made some chicks say some dirty, private, and naughty things in loose conversations with their friends that go unnoticed by everyone. It's awesome! 🤤😎 I kinda of feel like Aleister Crowley. I'm just a very small part of the mystery that makes up life. So yeah my life got a lot better! Thank you! 😋
I just woke up and it’s 2. I’ve been trapped unable to move cause I thought someone was watching me from my closet, under my bed, and outside my window. I had to calm myself down so I didn’t have a full panic attack. But I got up, grabbed my phone and started watching this. Thank you for helping!
it’s called sleeping paralysis(demonic attack) it happens if you watch inappropriate stuff and horror movies which opens up to bad spirits, it happens to everyone. but next time you get these, call on the name of Jesus. ❤️ Jesus Saves. ✝️
I hope everyone is okay right now whether you have an illness or not. Stay safe and healthy💖 Share your problems or worries and I will try to give you advice😊
thank you! the only thing I'm worrying about is that I'm getting very distant from my friends. i do try to talk to them, but they don't respond which upsets me, because i know they saw the text. I hope you have an amazing day or night, stay safe! 😋
when you learn to smile and wave in to the demon wind, you're not cured, exactly, but now you aren't crying about the wind, or letting it push you toward killing yourself and others, like it likes to do, demon wind that it is, motivated war between species that the demon wind prosecutes across our space and time, (from the fungal side!) This is the only way to go, it's not like we had a choice, and the nice thing about smiling and waving out the open universe-window, is it makes you kinda magical; most people keep the curtains pulled down, or calcify that pineal gland window with SSRI's and antipsychotics, problem is it's disconcerting cause the others from the 1% schizophrenic people are atomized, not working together, so you tend to feel lost and confused among the muggles, wondering what's wrong with you compared to those you try to be with, and that billions-of-dollars education system might point out that opening that window to the universe is an option with repercussions to consider, accomplished by various means, don't hide it from us and leave it up to the demons to teach, imagining us to be oblivious as if the pineal gland is already calcified just from your delusional wishing it.
This runs in my family and I'm constantly terrified I'll wake up one day hearing voices. I know that it can skip generations though and I'm 27 now and haven't had any signs so far. But it still scares me.
@2palexxl Oh I know! I've never even smoked. Addictive personality also runs in the family, so aside from the occasional drink, I don't touch anything.
please be careful if u are reading this, getting my diagnosis took over 6 months and so much annoyance, i knew i needed help, meds, something but i hate speaking to people in real life and talking to therapists is really hard for me it drives me so insane, its not worth going through this process if you are not sure you really need medicine for your illness u believe u have, please take my warning
OMG! The deceitful Pharmaceutical drugs and idiotic social Norm that you been accepted and adapted too foolishly destroyed your friend's gift now their lame just like you NOW! I am so sorry for you both. 😔😞 I'm dead(un frickin believable) ☠
I got diagnosed with schizophrenia and I hated believing it so much that I would cry so hard because my uncle had it and my family was over reacting and calling him insane so I was so scared that they would react like that with me and wow now that you put it in small words this explains it a whole lot now
I’m using this as part of my research into schizophrenia because I think I have it and I’m gonna talk to my doctor about it. Thanks for talking about this in a simple way
My brother has schizophrenia. Last year he stabbed someone because he had delusions that they were going to harm us. He just got sentenced to 11 years in prison.
I'm so sorry... My brother became schizophrenic after consuming a massive amount of weed :( (some people are more susceptible to this influence than others) Been in and out of hospital for 20 years, but never been the same. Never had a family, never travelled. He was the person I looked up to and when he got sick it took me a good 5 years to be able accept it. Just somehow thought I could reach him. To make things worse, my darling Mum, the kindest human being developed Capgras disorder and has disappeared. My sister has bipolar and experiences hallucinations and paranoia when under extreme stress and me? Extreme depression and anxiety. I'm the lucky one really but I can't say I'm not afraid of what will happen to me in time. Hard to know what the point of anything is when life shits on your entire family. Hard to be positive. I hope your brother will be okay and is at the very least getting treatment. Sorry x
@@isla4953 can smoking weed make you schizophrenia every time I smoke a lot of weed I feel off and think like I'm going crazy and feel out of my body so i force myself to sleep
@@teodoroguzman2908 I believe it's a factor in the development of schizophrenia. I'd say check it out though and do some health research of your own history to see what the risks and chances are.
Thk GOD ➕ I didn't react to all of the voices and thoughts at each time I was in a relapse ....if I sleep full 8hrs I be ok ...the side effects of the meds is torture ....when u experience spasm attacks on yr tongue
what the, ive had schizophrenia for about like a heap of years and this is the most concise explanation ive ever heard. as well as hitting the nail right on the head.
Remember kids, just because you experienced hallucinations doesn't mean you have schizophrenia. You hallucinate without being diagnosed with schizophrenia. For an example, Insomnia especially with extreme cases you can hallucinate. I've had that happen to me before but I've never been, nor do I believe, have schizophrenia.
I have all 4 symptoms except hallucinations and delusions and sometimes I stand still without any expressions while looking at nothing. Is this normal? Or am I just sleep deprived 🤔
People with narcolepsy also hallucinate sometimes. the most severe version is called Narcoleptic psychosis where the REM stage of sleep becomes active even when the person is awake. the symptoms are similar to schizophrenia so its often confused for schizophrenia but the main difference for narcoleptic psychosis is that the symptoms only occur when the person is really tired.
I suffer from insomnia, and I get really turned around after a long stretch of little sleep. I know I am off my game, so I don't drive or do anything that needs alot of focused attention.
I'm actually writing a character with Schizophrenia right now. I'm doing it from third person since I can't exactly put myself into that sort of mindset.
Would be great if the character doesn't portray the "psycho evil crazy villain" stereotype. It's exhausting when that's the first thing people think while you're explaining your diagnosis. 😓
ninja theory (video game company from Cambridge) worked with neuroscientists to understand psychosis when working on the game Hellblade maybe there are some professionals you can ask
This channel is really helpful for people like me who are trying to write realistic, non offensive characters. Of course, i go to multiple sources like interviews and articles
I had a friend who had schizophrenia. He was at a decline: started diving everyone, threw away his job, his spending habits were more lucrative, and had improbable life plans. His personality changed he was more arrogant and hostile. When he got to the peak of his mania his thinking prossess was on the lines of 2+2= fish, he kept on getting arrested for trespassing and public disturbance. Then was finally put into a mental hospital and was given treatment. His life got fucked. But he is on cylinders. The most jaw droping thing is in his mania he still retain his intelligence and smarts, and when he was getting visited he stoped being all loopy and acted normally.
@@maur8786 yeah. As I learned My friend lost his drive and motivation. Not just his exercise drive a mental drive to stimulate his mind on learning and such. I can only guess what mental turmoil he is in.
I was diagnosed with psychotic disorder when I was 17, and later I was diagnosed with schizophrenia. The signs of schizophrenia that I used to show are delusions, hallucinations, disorganized speech, catatonic excitement, and memory problems. Even nowadays, I sometimes struggle with speaking and memory problems. I didn’t typically exhibit catatonia (being still & stiff) or decreased emotional expression; I still show a lot of emotions and move around sometimes excessively to the point that I can’t stay still. I have been through hallucinations and delusions. One time, when I was in Puerto Rico in my grandma’s apartment, I was looking at the balcony, and I hallucinated when I heard a deep voice say “Jump off.” It was really scary, and obviously I didn’t do it because I am still alive and standing. Another time, I had a delusion that I could shapeshift like Beast Boy and turn into different animals, so I started eating grass like a cow and leaves off a tree like a giraffe. Yeah, delusions and hallucinations really suck when they happen. Disorganized speech also includes going off on tangents, like I just did now. Lol
I am schizophrenic (been diagnosed many years ago) and i just wanted to add that you can also experience smelling hallucinations (dont know the fancy word for it) but its quite rare. Also please, if you think you are, get a diagnose, and take the meds. They can have a horrible effect and you will most likely never live like most "normal" people, but you will live. Im 32 now, and i promise you it gets better, even if you dont belive it.
Was diagnosed recently, A lot of people don’t know this but some schizophrenics like myself can get motion sickness from certain visual hallucinations and it’s the worst feeling ever to always feel nauseous dizzy and have a terrible headache all the time because of your hallucinations
Well that’s false, sorry to burst your bubble. it’s actually had more religious background. Back in the old days when religion was the ruler and people didn’t support science they taught a folktale that we all have souls in our body’s, thus, when you sneeze your soul is trying to get out, and so they bless it back in. Hope this helps, sorry if it’s long
@@averyseon3888 LOL what's the real world to you? 😂 How would you define reality? 🤔🧐 From what I know from quantum mechanics, quantum entanglement and quantum theory is that it's a 50/50 chance of reality a.k.a the real world is a simulated existence. I just hope it's an ancestral simulation. But who cares about my opinion I want to know yours @Avery Seon.
In our country, a schizophrenic inhabitant of the Iraq with schizophrenia ran amoc with a car and while in court, he at first lamented having lost his children while 5 minutes later not recalling them any longer. This is truly frightening
In my opinion there is no cure to schizophrenia but there is a cure I feel too when you stop having symptoms and you can think clear, no disorganized thoughts, no hallucinations no delusions and etc. Healthy way of life brings healthy lifestyle. It's hard having schizophrenia but we got to always persevere too. Never give up and keep moving forward. Always wonderful to keep up with your doctors on how you are doing and talking to doctors or and therapists are always a must✔️🌟🙌🕊️ ... and taking medicine for your schizophrenia is a must as well. Just keeping up with treatment adds up to be a better healthy happier life. ❤
I have DID and thought originally it was schizophrenia. So did one of my friends. But then my alter started to learn more than me, and recognized that I existed. We both realized it around 2013. 2018-2019 a third joined. It's been tough, but just know no matter who you are, you are loved, no matter your "malfunction"
I have had all these signs. Its really scary sometimes. Especially when your having an episode around people. Unless you are a a trained professional most people just don't understand. It took me a long time to except the diagnosis and still have Anosognosia at times. I have learned to live Schizophrenia and am no longer ashamed that I have Mental health illness (schizophrenia)
Honestly I hated hate having schizo - affective disorder , I felt so different from everyone else... But really I am not all that different from some people too. Do not get me wrong, we are all different from each other ," but we also have different things about us " we all go through life differently. So these days to me living with a mental disorder is not all that bad. It's how we look at it too. I always like to look at it as life can get better if we are willing to help ourselves to be better at functioning and things we need to improve on like living a better healthier lifestyle.. Also never never give up , you just don't know how positive you are going to feel the next day and always keep positive. Life is a reality too , there are bad and good days but we will get by if we also know how to keep positive. 🙌🌟
Your friends are likely experiencing psychotic episodes and/or schizoaffective disorder. They are similar to schizophrenia, except they are not permanent. And, please talk to someone who can help them. It's incredibly dangerous to get addicted to drugs, and it's important to get them off of them quickly.
@@averyconfusedworm5902 they can become permanent actually, I know one person who never recovered, was diagnosed with schizophrenia and it started from taking weed and LSD as a teenager so it can happen.
Imagine seeing all the doctors and professionals only to have them scratch their heads …. Tedious is an understatement I don’t need professionals… plural, I NEED “THE” Professional. Being a mixture of many disorders it makes my diagnosis extremely difficult to put a pin in and I give them their time but no harm in me educating myself (not diagnosing) on the disorders and trying to find matches without “making them matches” Time is precious and there is limited “skilled” doctors to see us
The upside in having ADHD is that if you was in a tribe and you had the hunt you'll be the best and one of the most awesomest Hunter's the tribe has. But this but but this is just a theory though
My auntie had schizophrenia, she passed away in March 2021 due to the drugs she took for it. She was finally happy and met the love of her life. She had cancer of the stomach and liver. ❤️
You needed right guidance and maybe live a healthier lifestyle then drinking from filthy tap water didn't you take health and wellness class in college?
Honestly, the Psych2Go videos are so beneficial for me. I'm an aspiring author and I enjoy making characters with realistic mental health disorders to make them more relatable, and videos like this one are absolutely perfect for quick reference to symptoms and signs. Of course I always combine the Psych2Go videos with online research to make characters as accurate as possible, but the videos are a massive help. Thank you so much Psych2Go!
There's four main different types of these "Psychotic" disorders that can be indistinguishable from each other unless the person is inspected further. 1) Psychotic Depression (especially if isolated) which most people have/have had; which is a form of emotional Psychosis 2) Schitzo-affective Disorder (rarer than Schitzophrenia and half similar/symptomatic).0.3% of population has it.. 3) Schitzophrenia. (
God Bless the Caregivers, We keep thinking it can get better, but we get fooled every time. Years and years of hope, and we refuse to give-up. And the Mental Health Professionals are of very little help. We work every day with this, and the psychiatrist looks at you as if your the problem! God bless you, God has a place in haven for you. You have to keep going nonmatter how tired you are, there are no other options!!!
I just noticed that I was staring to have delusions and once I watch other symptoms I looked back at recent times in my life and notice I have had these other symptoms my mom who is doctor thinks I might be schizophrenic and has told me to monitor my movements to inform her about more delusions and other weird thing that may be a symptom this video really helped me notice that what I thought was normal isn’t and now I want to seek medical help other than my mom so thank you❤️
Way to handle criticism from other channels with an open mind and maturity. I've been watching your team respond in the comments, bravo. Having the links up front and at the end of your videos allows those of us who watch you peer review and take things seriously. This channel needs to be that way because of the topics it covers, and we are serious about this. Keep up the hard work and treat every video like a final project. less videos maybe but at this point your reputation is more important than views. Thank you.
Hahahaha 😂😂 I’m sorry I’m sorry… it’s just… who are you?? A single TH-cam viewer? What’s your channel? What degrees do you carry? What “team” do you seem to be referring to? If I decide to look on WebMD and regurgitate the “peer reviewed” content there, who are YOU to stop me? You can’t. As pretentious as you may be, you are small little man, and nothing else. And can’t stop anyone from doing anything. “Review your peer-reviewed content, we are SUPER CEREAL ABOUT THIS” 😂 so am I. Super serious. Super duper cereal about it.
i just went to a psychologist to get tested for autism, but they also said that my symptoms relate to schizophrenia, OCD, and depression. i didn’t understand the schizophrenic part, but now after looking in to it, i think it was the right choice. i’ve had symptoms ever since i was 3. i get my results in around 8 weeks, so let’s see if i’m schizophrenic! i’ll check up when i get the results :D
You just described what people with brain tumors and sever head injuries go through. I've had both. It takes tests and a Dr to get to bottom of what's causing these problems. Don't let anyone label you as schizophrenic because you have these, go to the Dr get tested.
I genuinely think i have ocd, maladaptive daydreaming, and an anxiety disorder, but I don't know how to bring it up with my parents. At least, I think it would simply be good to seek professional help. A few years ago, it seemed like I had social anxiety, but I was never taken to see a professional. The idea of me going to therapy or seeing some sort of professional has been brought up, not really serious with my dad at least, but from what I noticed with how I act and whatnot, I think it would be could for me to bring it up. I'm just really afraid to explain why I think it's necessary. and yes, b4 anyone tells me don't self-diagnose, i know oke. i'm not saying i 4 sure have it, but i feel like there's a high chance, but mostly I'm just concerned about myself. that's all.
I was wondering if I had Schizophrenia a few days ago- Edit - I now know I probably don't have it, although I hear things a lot as well as the last two symptoms
I developed it around 17+1/2. Diagnosed shortly after at 18. Now im almost 21. Been taking meds consistently all this time. Gained 100lbs. Its because of the meds. I wouldnt say it ruined my life. It led to me finding my purpose in life. Is it still an illness if it leads to Good? I thank God for everything he gave me here on Earth, his plan is absolute and never fails. Lord God and the Holy Ghost made me this way, and I am so grateful to him for this. I am not behind. I am ahead in every way that matters. Good video, schizophrenia is not always bad - youre just sometimes bad at reading Gods lamguage.
I have all the symptoms but I've been too nervous to tell my dad for months because of his religious beliefs and my fear of pills. I finally told him today and he's letting me start on keto because he believes fasting can help. Honestly, it was not as scary as I thought to talk to him and hopefully my symptoms go away with this approach
@@joshuamckillop5806 Well at the moment not much has changed for auditory hallucinations but as for visual they're not as frequent 🤷 dunno if it's directly from fasting or just correlation to something or if it's just a coincidence but I'm doing a bit better now
Everyone needs to gather together & to wish God (The Creator) Allah and Yahweh, dead! He has been harassing and violently attacking all Schizophrenic & Psychosis patients in their minds including myself. Ask the people for yourself what is effecting us. It's dangerous and deadly! Please share.
My really good friend developed schizophrenia, he was one the calmest down to earth person i have ever met, always loyal then one day he got hostile sayin he was going to burn my shoes, followed me when i tired to get away from him, i was reallly scared. Some days later he was normal so I invited him over to talk. He then said people wanted him dead, and they rap about killing him in songs, he then took a knife in my kitchen unfolded it on my table and asked me if I was a cop, I calmly took the knife and put it back and back he went to get the knife and I took it again and told him calmy he was wrong. He then looked out of my door hole 7 hours straight and collapsed. I have heard schizophrenia is not dangarous and best way is to talk slowly with facts and not judging but I felt my life was in danger and ever since i only have nightmares when he is in my dreams
You just got spooked because you haven't had experience with schizophrenia before, I've never had experience with person that has schizophrenia so i would react the same.

From a schizophrenic, please don’t self-diagnose. I know a diagnosis is hard to get these days and the healthy system is a joke, but misdiagnosing yourself does more harm than good.
Nope
I really don't want to self-diagnose myself in fear that I actually don't have the thing, trying to find someone who would help and diagnose me is extremely difficult
@@kestel7491 me too i really dont want to but all the signs are there and i dont want to go talk to the very few people that can actually diagnose me
@@idkmanitsme8948 I know it’s scary, but it’s much better to get the confirmation from a psychiatrist because it could be something else. The fear lasts momentarily, you get relief from knowing and getting it over with when you’re done

im doing very well, got diagnosed with schizophrenia in 2019. all of my symptomps is gone
@@maur8786 Good man!
Thankyou..
Guys some of these symptoms can be a result of anxiety so don’t automatically assume you are a schizophrenic
Or having a religious experience lmao.
im worried because my grandpa had it, my uncle and my cousin too, also my aunt :(
finally someone gets it. Those who claim to be schizophrenias on youtube aren't. They just want attention and are self "diagnosed". Those who suffer won't be on youtube for starters.
@@0800latinamami your fam hit the schizophrenia lottery
True, but I don’t show any anxiety except needles since my fear of it is severe
About 3 years ago, I was diagnosed with Schizophrenia and DID. Life has been terrible, like I try to keel it cool and calm, but ultimately it fails. I still going to push through, I don't want to give up. I hope those who suffer from mental disorders find that light at the end of the tunnel.
My friend would've benefited from this video. Sadly, he took his life in October 2013 just a mere day after his diagnosis of paranoid schizophrenia. 💔 His mother and sister created an organization in his honor shortly after. Still going strong to this day.
I myself was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia too. And I attempted suicide in 2015 by sleeping pills. I still don't know if it was luck or bad luck that I survived, because I still have false beliefs even though I can clarify them by myself. Auditory hallucinations also attack me occasionally. I find myself incompetent, study more with poorer result compared to healthy people. And spending an enormous amount of time trying to learn and manage to deal with the symptoms, with my career and social life behind everyone. I was once an excellent student in class, but now it's all disappointment.
@@halcyon.89 I was diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder after spending eight days in a mental hospital, all while finishing an associate's in graphic design. I was a week away from finishing the program, to be specific. I still have the usual intrusive thoughts, the visual/auditory/tactile hallucinations. I can only manage through the thoughts by making art and writing. Writing is the only way I can purge my feelings. The second I talk to someone, my voice is low, but not to a point of being barely above a whisper (which was the case when I was little). But the second I project it, it somehow comes off as if I'm yelling but unfortunately, this is exactly why I rarely talk to most people on the street. And also, for some reason, I would go off on the occasional tangents afterwards. That makes it all the more scary for me bc I thought (and still think) to this day that I'm an alien from another planet with no particular understanding of social cues. But, I send you love and virtual hugs. I only hope that others will normalize the conversation of mental health in general and find more resources in the future. ❤️
Condolences to your brave friend.

And making many people think they're schizophrenic.
@@rebelWP they literally say that if this is you that you should go see your doctor and NOT self-diagnose they’re not doing any harm by educating others

It’s a bot. (I think. They commented this on 300,000,000,000 videos so...
I'm diagnosed with ASD but many of my favorite people on this Earth are Schitzophrenic. I feel like they GET me. Don't ever let a diagnosis get you down or hold you back. 💜
Yes, I have had a few friends. Honestly, I had this horrible impression that people with schizophrenia were super scary and dangerous, but I liked the two girls I knew and didn't even know until one of them told me. They are humans too, and are a lot more like us than society makes them out to be. So yeah, I was naive to think that about people with schizophrenia.
I hate doing a self-diagnose, but I can't seriously hide the fact, that most of this is present on me...
You should see a therapist to get a diagnosis! It’s hard to objectively self diagnose, but if you suspect you may have it, and you end up being right, it’s best to treat it in its earlier stages.
hey, please don't self diagnose! try visiting a psychologist, schizophrenia is a medically diagnosed disorder. stay safe
Yeah I'll think about it. Thank you everyone :^). Stay safe.
@riiyaa What

i have maladaptive daydreaming. so when i was a child, i thought i have schizophrenia and i cant tell anyone because i thought they locked me in a hospital.
I have Maladaptive Daydreaming too. It's easily confused because it's often misdiagnosed or unknown 😢

@@bellaligator7137 actually i've been in this situation as long as i can remember and i thought it was normal ?? lol. one day a friend of mine saw me and said 'are you crazy?' then i realized that this is not normal. i still hadn’t know it was MD and i spent years with this anomaly. i had a hard time making friends. i could never study. after learning md, it seemed too late. but here i am, i am studying dental medicine. i know myself than anyone can do. i think md makes our brain work more. it makes us smarter. otherwise it's impossible to come here without working lol. i hope we all can rise very well. the important thing is to know and love yourself. yeah.. because of md, i really talk too much, if i open my mouth lol❤️

Just 'A' scenario
Great video to explain what schizophrenia is all about ! Hopefully everyone can take into account that it's not a joke having schizophrenia and that it is a very serious serious mental disorder and illness.
I was diagnosed with schizophrenia in 2017, what the video says is absolutely right. I have about 4 of those symptoms but they're easily dealt with; with medication and a lot of support from close friends and loved ones....... So if you do have schizophrenia I'm here to tell ya its not the end of the world my dude. You can still live a perfectly normal and fulfilling life, just takes some self awareness, some routines and communication
god bless you, hope you live your life well

First watching this video made me realise that I had a few of the symptoms but didn't really think much of it, but after counselling and meetings with psychiatrists I was finally diagnosed a few weeks ago and given tips and medications to help and it's changed my life so thank you
Hey bro. I have only just realised in the past hour I might be prone to having it. Id say half of the onset symptoms for young adolescents are in me. But im afraid if I go and get diagnosed that maby it will limit me to jobs or something in the future. Can this mental illness limit you to certain things?

Had schizoefftive disorder for 5 years and now im almost out of the recovery stage and all i gotta say is please dont take your health for granted.
how did you get better?
I have a friend with schizophrenia that has explained some of his issues.
Aside from the visual hallucinations, he sometimes has moments where is brain tricks his memory.
So while he thinks he stood up and put the milk away, and truly believes he did, he never actually got off the couch.
His memory almost immediately omits something it was told and his family has called 911 when they found him sitting on his bed, staring into space for hours. To him, it was just a few minutes.
He explained a bit of visual hallucinations but they aren't really relevant to my comment but all in all, I'm really happy I wasn't unfortunate enough to have this.
Interesting and heartbreaking at the same time. I wish him well.
Tell him that a Black Muslim man with a turban lives in his sink.

There are no guarantee in life that you will have perfect health. Even if your thinking is perfect and your behavior is immaculate, though your risk may be much reduced for accident, illness or injury, you still have this risk because that is part of being in the world. People often want to eliminate the idea of risk. They do not like the idea that they have to live with risk, and so they believe, “There is really no injury or accident in the world. There is no sickness. It is all the result of human dysfunction, and if human dysfunction could be eliminated, well, there would be no accidents, injuries or illnesses.” Again, look at the world around you. Look at the plants and the animals. They all take a risk in living here. There are no guarantees that everything will go perfectly for them, that they will all live a long span of years. To be in life, you must be in life as it is not as you want it to be. To experience life, you must experience life as it is and not as you want it to be.

Thank you.
I am not self diagnosing;
I feel that a lot of this points to how I’ve been feeling for the past couple of months, (almost a year actually, I think) and how I’ve been behaving. Not only am I constantly paranoid about the inevitable or just absolutely bogus things happening or appearing (such as demons and monsters), but it keeps me up for so long at night because of how terrified I am of the darkness of the room, or the supposed breathing I hear in the corner of the room or underneath my bed, or my dead cat meowing outside my window. Some nights I wait until the sunrise so I can go to bed, and even then, I still press myself tightly against the wall, with minimal space to move, and shroud myself in my blankets and hide my face because I’m afraid of what I might see (I even cover my ears because I swear I can hear breathing that is not my own, a pair of heavy but slow footsteps on the carpet by my bed). My mind is constantly wondering in an endless daze and I’m always so paranoid and anxious. I hate being alone. I hate sleeping all alone, I hate closing my eyes when I’m alone. Some nights the paranoia is so bad that every single sound I hear has me twitching and whimpering uncontrollably; hugging myself, rocking myself, crying etc. I’ve been awfully catatonic too, not only constantly asking people to repeat what they said to me, but also not even being able to focus.
I just wanna know what’s going on with me, I would totally tell my parents, but a few years ago I’d stopped talking to them about anything because they didn’t take me seriously. I’ve been bottling things up inside and it’s becoming painful. Mom’s literally LAUGHED at me when I told her that I felt like I was probably depressed or something and told her that I cry myself to sleep a lot and constantly have panic attacks. And I’m just afraid to tell dad anything because he’s so quick to anger. I just....don’t have anyone I can tell. I don’t feel safe. One of the reasons behind my anxiety and panic attacks are because I feel so alone, (I’m bi and non-binary and my folks are homophobic as well and transphobic and they’re always saying how that kind of thing is an abomination before the lord) and I don’t wanna have to explain myself and get thrown out or mess my relationship with my family up. I just wanna solve this some day (hopefully soon). I hate having to explain myself to people who don’t take me seriously or simply just don’t even try to understand because “it goes against what God says” or because I’m “too young to be feeling this way” or “it’s just a phase, you’ll grow out of it”. I just want a hug and some kind words, not a lecture and a quick “goodnight, sleep well” i never even get an “I love you”.
omg i get the same thing for sleeping, but my bed is in the middle of my room so i have to huddle as many things over me as possible, and cover my face as much as i can without suffocating myself. I also get thoughts of the footsteps being a pedophile or a rapist waiting for the perfect moment to strip the blankets off me and do it. I struggle with trust issues so badly i even think teachers at school are out to get me and that everyone at school secretly is plotting to kill me. i've had panic attacks at school but my teachers disregarded it as "just shyness". I'm super paranoid i can't be in the same room as a Bunsen Burner without thinking someone's gonna be set on fire at this point. I've even had hallucinations of my house burning down, which is one of my greatest fears. I've also got PTSD from almost drowning before, so that adds to the hallucinations. I also went through this period of time genuinely believing i was immortal and that nothing could stop me from living forever. I've had beliefs that my dad was a ghost before. it's not fair at this point. I can't tell my family about this because they won't believe me cuz i hide it from them, so i can seem "normal" around them. I can't talk to a psychiatrist because i struggle to talk about my emotions and what's going on inside because when i do i go off on inaudible tangents of slightly slurred speech as if i were drunk. I do desperately need to see a mental health professional but the mental health system in the UK is absolutely shite so i'll probably get misdiagnosed as anxiety or PTSD anyways. I hope you seek help random stranger and i hope i didn't trigger anything too bad , this was just my personal experience i wanted to share :,) ~𝑨𝒍𝒆𝒙 J🖤
you are loved. *hugs*
how are you now ? did you see a psychiatrist ?
I’m so sorry that you are going through this. These situations are so real it’s like real life😢I can’t imagine the turmoil you go through on a daily basis, especially with an aloof mom and easy to anger dad. You must feel so pent up inside, like a volcano about to erupt.
But I advise you find some sort of outlet, whether it’s writing down your feeling in detail or take video diaries. Watch the movie A Beautiful Mind, it will be revolutionary for you. Read and research everything there is to know about schizophrenia.
And idk ur religious believes but I am a Christian and I believe Christ can heal your mind. He sees your pain and your tears each time you cry😢I know that you have been hurt by the church and your parents, but God died for you. You were never supposed to have this crippling issue. He loves you and wants to heal and change you, you just have you accept him as your Lord and savior.
I’ll tell you what, whenever you have a terrible nightmare, sleep paralysis, or hear that scary breathing or foot steps or a meowing, say:
“I bind you spirit of paranoia and schizophrenia in the name of Jesus. You have no power! I know you’re there. With the sword of the spirit(which is the Bible), I cut down every lying spirit whispering in my ears in the name of Jesus and I commanded you to go to the pit! I plead the blood of Jesus over my mind, my body , and my entire room, even the windows. I speak peace over me in Jesus’ name amen.”

How
have been through this....and I hope no one who came here face this or if anyone is....I wish ur life gets better ❤️
I found out that I have psychic powers and wasn't mentally ill. I proved it by changing certain lyrics of a song using thought broadcasting that only me and a friend can hear and recognized and the friend I proved it to freaked out in a way like a ghost was seen, sweating bullets, and their heart was racing which made me realize that I wasn't schizophrenic and people wasn't out to get me nor was they reading my mind like the symptoms of schizophrenia. Actually now they're telling me accurate information that they didn't even know or know why they even said it in the first place and then just brushes it off like it's nothing to be concerned about at all and move on as soon I'm done with them....
I made some chicks say some dirty, private, and naughty things in loose conversations with their friends that go unnoticed by everyone.
It's awesome! 🤤😎
I kinda of feel like Aleister Crowley.
I'm just a very small part of the mystery that makes up life.
So yeah my life got a lot better!
Thank you! 😋
I have Schizoaffective disorder and oh boy the psychosis is a living nightmare
I just woke up and it’s 2. I’ve been trapped unable to move cause I thought someone was watching me from my closet, under my bed, and outside my window. I had to calm myself down so I didn’t have a full panic attack. But I got up, grabbed my phone and started watching this. Thank you for helping!
Hey hope you are okay
Look up Sleep Paralysis. I’ve had this once and it’s terrifying.
it’s called sleeping paralysis(demonic attack) it happens if you watch inappropriate stuff and horror movies which opens up to bad spirits, it happens to everyone. but next time you get these, call on the name of Jesus. ❤️ Jesus Saves. ✝️
Sleep paralysis is fun.
Welcome to the sleep paralysis club
I hope everyone is okay right now whether you have an illness or not. Stay safe and healthy💖

@@magei1613 they borrowed Psy's time machine.
when you learn to smile and wave in to the demon wind, you're not cured, exactly, but now you aren't crying about the wind, or letting it push you toward killing yourself and others, like it likes to do, demon wind that it is, motivated war between species that the demon wind prosecutes across our space and time, (from the fungal side!) This is the only way to go, it's not like we had a choice, and the nice thing about smiling and waving out the open universe-window, is it makes you kinda magical; most people keep the curtains pulled down, or calcify that pineal gland window with SSRI's and antipsychotics, problem is it's disconcerting cause the others from the 1% schizophrenic people are atomized, not working together, so you tend to feel lost and confused among the muggles, wondering what's wrong with you compared to those you try to be with, and that billions-of-dollars education system might point out that opening that window to the universe is an option with repercussions to consider, accomplished by various means, don't hide it from us and leave it up to the demons to teach, imagining us to be oblivious as if the pineal gland is already calcified just from your delusional wishing it.
This runs in my family and I'm constantly terrified I'll wake up one day hearing voices. I know that it can skip generations though and I'm 27 now and haven't had any signs so far. But it still scares me.

@2palexxl Oh I know! I've never even smoked. Addictive personality also runs in the family, so aside from the occasional drink, I don't touch anything.
I feel bad about joking about hearing voices. People really do struggle with this and I have taken it lightly. God bless you.
please be careful if u are reading this, getting my diagnosis took over 6 months and so much annoyance, i knew i needed help, meds, something but i hate speaking to people in real life and talking to therapists is really hard for me it drives me so insane, its not worth going through this process if you are not sure you really need medicine for your illness u believe u have, please take my warning

I got diagnosed with schizophrenia and I hated believing it so much that I would cry so hard because my uncle had it and my family was over reacting and calling him insane so I was so scared that they would react like that with me and wow now that you put it in small words this explains it a whole lot now
I’m using this as part of my research into schizophrenia because I think I have it and I’m gonna talk to my doctor about it. Thanks for talking about this in a simple way
Did you?
I’m here for the Gawr Gura but I watched the whole video. It’s pretty good!
My brother has schizophrenia. Last year he stabbed someone because he had delusions that they were going to harm us. He just got sentenced to 11 years in prison.
That's f***ed up
I'm so sorry... My brother became schizophrenic after consuming a massive amount of weed :( (some people are more susceptible to this influence than others) Been in and out of hospital for 20 years, but never been the same. Never had a family, never travelled. He was the person I looked up to and when he got sick it took me a good 5 years to be able accept it. Just somehow thought I could reach him. To make things worse, my darling Mum, the kindest human being developed Capgras disorder and has disappeared. My sister has bipolar and experiences hallucinations and paranoia when under extreme stress and me? Extreme depression and anxiety. I'm the lucky one really but I can't say I'm not afraid of what will happen to me in time. Hard to know what the point of anything is when life shits on your entire family. Hard to be positive.
I hope your brother will be okay and is at the very least getting treatment. Sorry x
@@isla4953 can smoking weed make you schizophrenia every time I smoke a lot of weed I feel off and think like I'm going crazy and feel out of my body so i force myself to sleep
@@teodoroguzman2908 I believe it's a factor in the development of schizophrenia. I'd say check it out though and do some health research of your own history to see what the risks and chances are.
lol why u telling his business
As someone who has schizophrenia, this really helped me learn more about my behaviors and what makes me unique. Thanks for this helpful video!
Thk GOD ➕ I didn't react to all of the voices and thoughts at each time I was in a relapse ....if I sleep full 8hrs I be ok ...the side effects of the meds is torture ....when u experience spasm attacks on yr tongue
Shout out to my homies with a psychotic disorder. It is hard but we overcome. 🤙
what the, ive had schizophrenia for about like a heap of years and this is the most concise explanation ive ever heard. as well as hitting the nail right on the head.
Remember kids, just because you experienced hallucinations doesn't mean you have schizophrenia. You hallucinate without being diagnosed with schizophrenia. For an example, Insomnia especially with extreme cases you can hallucinate. I've had that happen to me before but I've never been, nor do I believe, have schizophrenia.
I have all 4 symptoms except hallucinations and delusions and sometimes I stand still without any expressions while looking at nothing. Is this normal? Or am I just sleep deprived 🤔
People with narcolepsy also hallucinate sometimes. the most severe version is called Narcoleptic psychosis where the REM stage of sleep becomes active even when the person is awake. the symptoms are similar to schizophrenia so its often confused for schizophrenia but the main difference for narcoleptic psychosis is that the symptoms only occur when the person is really tired.
I suffer from insomnia, and I get really turned around after a long stretch of little sleep.
I know I am off my game, so I don't drive or do anything that needs alot of focused attention.
I'm actually writing a character with Schizophrenia right now. I'm doing it from third person since I can't exactly put myself into that sort of mindset.
Thanks man, representation really helps improve the lives of people like us. It's nice to see empathy in other people
Would be great if the character doesn't portray the "psycho evil crazy villain" stereotype. It's exhausting when that's the first thing people think while you're explaining your diagnosis. 😓
ninja theory (video game company from Cambridge) worked with neuroscientists to understand psychosis when working on the game Hellblade
maybe there are some professionals you can ask

Fun fact: Schizophrenia in Greece is written as : σχιζοφρένεια

Okay..
thats actually very usefull for me, ty!
confusing alphabet, in cyrillic capital F is Ф and small f is ф, very confusing that the capital letters in greek are different from the smaller ones
So it's Shizofreneia. Interesting! More simple than in English.
As schizophrenic this symptoms are pretty normal for schizophrenia but they can also be bc of psychosis or other disorders like she mentioned

I had a friend who had schizophrenia. He was at a decline: started diving everyone, threw away his job, his spending habits were more lucrative, and had improbable life plans. His personality changed he was more arrogant and hostile. When he got to the peak of his mania his thinking prossess was on the lines of 2+2= fish, he kept on getting arrested for trespassing and public disturbance. Then was finally put into a mental hospital and was given treatment. His life got fucked. But he is on cylinders. The most jaw droping thing is in his mania he still retain his intelligence and smarts, and when he was getting visited he stoped being all loopy and acted normally.
i had schizophrenia and definitely my life got fucked. before i got that im an athlete now im fatass
@@maur8786 yeah. As I learned My friend lost his drive and motivation. Not just his exercise drive a mental drive to stimulate his mind on learning and such. I can only guess what mental turmoil he is in.

Hello ^^
Hi
Ayy
Hi! Poland got sick so I'm covering in tor him
I was diagnosed with psychotic disorder when I was 17, and later I was diagnosed with schizophrenia.
The signs of schizophrenia that I used to show are delusions, hallucinations, disorganized speech, catatonic excitement, and memory problems. Even nowadays, I sometimes struggle with speaking and memory problems. I didn’t typically exhibit catatonia (being still & stiff) or decreased emotional expression; I still show a lot of emotions and move around sometimes excessively to the point that I can’t stay still.
I have been through hallucinations and delusions. One time, when I was in Puerto Rico in my grandma’s apartment, I was looking at the balcony, and I hallucinated when I heard a deep voice say “Jump off.” It was really scary, and obviously I didn’t do it because I am still alive and standing. Another time, I had a delusion that I could shapeshift like Beast Boy and turn into different animals, so I started eating grass like a cow and leaves off a tree like a giraffe. Yeah, delusions and hallucinations really suck when they happen.
Disorganized speech also includes going off on tangents, like I just did now. Lol
I am schizophrenic (been diagnosed many years ago) and i just wanted to add that you can also experience smelling hallucinations (dont know the fancy word for it) but its quite rare.
Also please, if you think you are, get a diagnose, and take the meds. They can have a horrible effect and you will most likely never live like most "normal" people, but you will live. Im 32 now, and i promise you it gets better, even if you dont belive it.
I happen to be the federal agent residing in your sink
Was diagnosed recently, A lot of people don’t know this but some schizophrenics like myself can get motion sickness from certain visual hallucinations and it’s the worst feeling ever to always feel nauseous dizzy and have a terrible headache all the time because of your hallucinations
How did u overcome it
I AM INSIDE YOUR WALLS I AM INSIDE YOUR WALLS I AM INSIDE YOUR WALLS I AM INSIDE YOUR WALLS

Fun fact
People say "bless you" when you sneeze because your HEART STOPS a millisecond when you sneeze.
-Shazistic
Well that’s false, sorry to burst your bubble. it’s actually had more religious background. Back in the old days when religion was the ruler and people didn’t support science they taught a folktale that we all have souls in our body’s, thus, when you sneeze your soul is trying to get out, and so they bless it back in. Hope this helps, sorry if it’s long

its so hard and painful to see my sibling become a different person.
Astana selfish
The are just realiz7bg the real world u dont know yet
@@averyseon3888 LOL what's the real world to you? 😂
How would you define reality? 🤔🧐
From what I know from quantum mechanics, quantum entanglement and quantum theory is that it's a 50/50 chance of reality a.k.a the real world is a simulated existence.
I just hope it's an ancestral simulation.
But who cares about my opinion I want to know yours @Avery Seon.
The same happened to me, my sibling became a completely different person. It hurts, I feel your pain. 💔
In our country, a schizophrenic inhabitant of the Iraq with schizophrenia ran amoc with a car and while in court, he at first lamented having lost his children while 5 minutes later not recalling them any longer. This is truly frightening
In my opinion there is no cure to schizophrenia but there is a cure I feel too when you stop having symptoms and you can think clear, no disorganized thoughts, no hallucinations no delusions and etc. Healthy way of life brings healthy lifestyle. It's hard having schizophrenia but we got to always persevere too. Never give up and keep moving forward. Always wonderful to keep up with your doctors on how you are doing and talking to doctors or and therapists are always a must✔️🌟🙌🕊️ ... and taking medicine for your schizophrenia is a must as well. Just keeping up with treatment adds up to be a better healthy happier life. ❤
2:27 I was not expecting Gawr Gura to make a cameo. Quite a pleasant surprise 💙🦈
I have DID and thought originally it was schizophrenia. So did one of my friends. But then my alter started to learn more than me, and recognized that I existed. We both realized it around 2013. 2018-2019 a third joined. It's been tough, but just know no matter who you are, you are loved, no matter your "malfunction"
2:19 Gura. Never expected this.
Watched your video and discovered all six signs of schizophrenia in myself. Thanks for helping out with people like us. CUDOS to You!
Every human exhibits all 6 signs. Every person is schizophrenic. It's literally called, reality. Some just call it schizophrenia.
I have had all these signs. Its really scary sometimes. Especially when your having an episode around people. Unless you are a a trained professional most people just don't understand. It took me a long time to except the diagnosis and still have Anosognosia at times. I have learned to live Schizophrenia and am no longer ashamed that I have Mental health illness (schizophrenia)

I was diagnosed with schizophrenia and didn’t really understand it but then I watched this and it really helped
Honestly I hated hate having schizo - affective disorder , I felt so different from everyone else... But really I am not all that different from some people too. Do not get me wrong, we are all different from each other ," but we also have different things about us " we all go through life differently. So these days to me living with a mental disorder is not all that bad. It's how we look at it too. I always like to look at it as life can get better if we are willing to help ourselves to be better at functioning and things we need to improve on like living a better healthier lifestyle.. Also never never give up , you just don't know how positive you are going to feel the next day and always keep positive. Life is a reality too , there are bad and good days but we will get by if we also know how to keep positive. 🙌🌟

Please do a video on substance abuse - particularly weed, I've seen friends rabbit hole themselves and develop schizophrenic like symptoms!
Your friends are likely experiencing psychotic episodes and/or schizoaffective disorder. They are similar to schizophrenia, except they are not permanent. And, please talk to someone who can help them. It's incredibly dangerous to get addicted to drugs, and it's important to get them off of them quickly.
@@averyconfusedworm5902 they can become permanent actually, I know one person who never recovered, was diagnosed with schizophrenia and it started from taking weed and LSD as a teenager so it can happen.
@@tyremanguitars well you cant develop schizophrenia from smoking weed, it can speed up the development of it, but it can't cause it
Congratulations for 5 M views,psych2go! You deserve it for so much help
Imagine seeing all the doctors and professionals only to have them scratch their heads …. Tedious is an understatement I don’t need professionals… plural, I NEED “THE” Professional.
Being a mixture of many disorders it makes my diagnosis extremely difficult to put a pin in and I give them their time but no harm in me educating myself (not diagnosing) on the disorders and trying to find matches without “making them matches”
Time is precious and there is limited “skilled” doctors to see us
I have adhd, bi polar disorder, and schizophrenia. AND YES, I have been diagnosed.
Disorganized speech is also pretty common with adhd btw. I should know since me, my dad, and my older brother have it
The upside in having ADHD is that if you was in a tribe and you had the hunt you'll be the best and one of the most awesomest Hunter's the tribe has.
But this but but this is just a theory though

Honestly, the Psych2Go videos are so beneficial for me. I'm an aspiring author and I enjoy making characters with realistic mental health disorders to make them more relatable, and videos like this one are absolutely perfect for quick reference to symptoms and signs. Of course I always combine the Psych2Go videos with online research to make characters as accurate as possible, but the videos are a massive help. Thank you so much Psych2Go!
There's four main different types of these "Psychotic" disorders that can be indistinguishable from each other unless the person is inspected further. 1) Psychotic Depression (especially if isolated) which most people have/have had; which is a form of emotional Psychosis 2) Schitzo-affective Disorder (rarer than Schitzophrenia and half similar/symptomatic).0.3% of population has it.. 3) Schitzophrenia. (
God Bless the Caregivers, We keep thinking it can get better, but we get fooled every time. Years and years of hope, and we refuse to give-up. And the Mental Health Professionals are of very little help. We work every day with this, and the psychiatrist looks at you as if your the problem! God bless you, God has a place in haven for you. You have to keep going nonmatter how tired you are, there are no other options!!!
I just noticed that I was staring to have delusions and once I watch other symptoms I looked back at recent times in my life and notice I have had these other symptoms my mom who is doctor thinks I might be schizophrenic and has told me to monitor my movements to inform her about more delusions and other weird thing that may be a symptom this video really helped me notice that what I thought was normal isn’t and now I want to seek medical help other than my mom so thank you❤️
Way to handle criticism from other channels with an open mind and maturity. I've been watching your team respond in the comments, bravo. Having the links up front and at the end of your videos allows those of us who watch you peer review and take things seriously. This channel needs to be that way because of the topics it covers, and we are serious about this. Keep up the hard work and treat every video like a final project. less videos maybe but at this point your reputation is more important than views. Thank you.
Hahahaha 😂😂 I’m sorry I’m sorry… it’s just… who are you?? A single TH-cam viewer? What’s your channel? What degrees do you carry? What “team” do you seem to be referring to? If I decide to look on WebMD and regurgitate the “peer reviewed” content there, who are YOU to stop me? You can’t. As pretentious as you may be, you are small little man, and nothing else. And can’t stop anyone from doing anything. “Review your peer-reviewed content, we are SUPER CEREAL ABOUT THIS” 😂 so am I. Super serious. Super duper cereal about it.
DSM-IV, described the following five types of schizophrenia:
paranoid type.
disorganized type.
catatonic type.
undifferentiated type.
residual type.👍
Uh we use the DSM V

i just went to a psychologist to get tested for autism, but they also said that my symptoms relate to schizophrenia, OCD, and depression. i didn’t understand the schizophrenic part, but now after looking in to it, i think it was the right choice. i’ve had symptoms ever since i was 3. i get my results in around 8 weeks, so let’s see if i’m schizophrenic! i’ll check up when i get the results :D
Ty for this video i have been seeing things for a month now!
You just described what people with brain tumors and sever head injuries go through. I've had both.
It takes tests and a Dr to get to bottom of what's causing these problems. Don't let anyone label you as schizophrenic because you have these, go to the Dr get tested.
I genuinely think i have ocd, maladaptive daydreaming, and an anxiety disorder, but I don't know how to bring it up with my parents. At least, I think it would simply be good to seek professional help. A few years ago, it seemed like I had social anxiety, but I was never taken to see a professional. The idea of me going to therapy or seeing some sort of professional has been brought up, not really serious with my dad at least, but from what I noticed with how I act and whatnot, I think it would be could for me to bring it up. I'm just really afraid to explain why I think it's necessary.
and yes, b4 anyone tells me don't self-diagnose, i know oke. i'm not saying i 4 sure have it, but i feel like there's a high chance, but mostly I'm just concerned about myself. that's all.
I was wondering if I had Schizophrenia a few days ago-
Edit - I now know I probably don't have it, although I hear things a lot as well as the last two symptoms
personally thought i might have schizophrenia, watched this and found out i don't, this is why i watch these. thank you
I developed it around 17+1/2. Diagnosed shortly after at 18. Now im almost 21. Been taking meds consistently all this time. Gained 100lbs. Its because of the meds. I wouldnt say it ruined my life. It led to me finding my purpose in life. Is it still an illness if it leads to Good? I thank God for everything he gave me here on Earth, his plan is absolute and never fails. Lord God and the Holy Ghost made me this way, and I am so grateful to him for this. I am not behind. I am ahead in every way that matters. Good video, schizophrenia is not always bad - youre just sometimes bad at reading Gods lamguage.

I have all the symptoms but I've been too nervous to tell my dad for months because of his religious beliefs and my fear of pills. I finally told him today and he's letting me start on keto because he believes fasting can help. Honestly, it was not as scary as I thought to talk to him and hopefully my symptoms go away with this approach
I highly doubt you to grace
@@joshuamckillop5806 Well at the moment not much has changed for auditory hallucinations but as for visual they're not as frequent 🤷 dunno if it's directly from fasting or just correlation to something or if it's just a coincidence but I'm doing a bit better now

Everyone needs to gather together & to wish God (The Creator) Allah and Yahweh, dead! He has been harassing and violently attacking all Schizophrenic & Psychosis patients in their minds including myself. Ask the people for yourself what is effecting us. It's dangerous and deadly! Please share.
I miss this VO! welcome back!
My really good friend developed schizophrenia, he was one the calmest down to earth person i have ever met, always loyal then one day he got hostile sayin he was going to burn my shoes, followed me when i tired to get away from him, i was reallly scared. Some days later he was normal so I invited him over to talk. He then said people wanted him dead, and they rap about killing him in songs, he then took a knife in my kitchen unfolded it on my table and asked me if I was a cop, I calmly took the knife and put it back and back he went to get the knife and I took it again and told him calmy he was wrong. He then looked out of my door hole 7 hours straight and collapsed. I have heard schizophrenia is not dangarous and best way is to talk slowly with facts and not judging but I felt my life was in danger and ever since i only have nightmares when he is in my dreams
You just got spooked because you haven't had experience with schizophrenia before, I've never had experience with person that has schizophrenia so i would react the same.
