Part 1 of Full Of Sound And Fury Living With Schizophrenia
Great documentary. That soundtrack though...got me feeling like I'm about to go on a bad trip...
xzysyndrome it's vibrato (almost) 😋
xzysyndrome lol...yep, the soundtrack is nauseating...btw, you made me laugh
xzysyndrome or an old porn flick
Me too
People pay good money for that sound effect
I lost a friend who had Bipolar and Schizophrenia, he took his own life October 2021.... Griffith James, you’ll never be forgotten ❤️
I new someone in high school with that name. You're not in New Zealand are you?
This music making me dizzy
So sorry to hear 🙏🙏🙏 God bless
@@cynthiadavid5282I think it is the recorder rather than the tapes themselves ...
Some of you are saying you would be friends with these people. You wish you could’ve known these people. There’s people around today with mental illness, who are lonely and friendless, seek them out and be kind and friendly to them. Practice what you preach.
They just like to virtue signal.
🔥 agreed
it is n,t so. Nobody wants to be friends with a schizophrenic.....NOBODY wants to hear their 'bullshit'...
@@herelieskittythomas3726 Not everyone Kitty Thomas.
The music was making me develope schizophrenia
Lol
Tell me about it. Lol
Chase Blair yeah it’s horrific.
its being dragged through my consciousness. like a dirge, of unsanitary insanity.
Sounds like Kenny G was having an off day.
I respect these people immensely-
The strength and integrity of the gal is mind blowing-
I would collapse if I had what she had for 5 minutes-
And for her it’s a LIFETIME-
These people are strong , intelligent and worthy of love 👌
Its not as hard as it seems from the outside. Its crap for the first few years then it becomes normal.
Absolutely...
sbecktacular They're also batshit crazy!
@skepticskaterr its true whether it's sad or not
I'm happy that Sandy found a "fellow."
Its so weird to see so much kindness and acceptance in the comments. I'm sorry I suffer from this and have spent years alone. Alone in a sense of no one understands everyone lives scared of me cause I'm different and been in a mental hospital. Live one day in a world where everyone you know calls you friend but never have time for you. If you have that kindness spread it so the world will see us different
You are loved.
Oh no, I dont think I would judge anyone for having been in a Mental Hospital. You see many, many people have had experience of that. I remember in the early 80s when I had a bit of a 'breakdown' (Only recently found that I am on the Autism Spectrum and the stresses of living as a slightly 'different' sort of person, is what results in my extreme anxiety and depressive states, what I would have given to know that then). So lots of people who seem 'normal' ( whatever that is), to all intents and purposes have had their own brushes with mental hospitals. A nurse told me at the time, that had it been a few decades earlier, I would have been committed for the sin of having a child out of wedlock, so would have been there anyway. So, please do not feel you would be judged for this, people keep stuff like that to themselves but in comments threads like this, their true feelings come out. I hope you are keeping well and safe xx
You are not alone. Don't be embarrassed, I was in and out of hospitals from the late 80s and through the mid-90s. I suffer from PTSD and my main diagnosis was MPD. Also I was in rehab by the age of 19. My most recent hospitalization was in 2020. There have been many changes in the care that you receive while hospitalized. This makes me sad because a lot of folks aren't getting the help they need. Don't let your illness be a stigma. It's not, as long as you maintain you're good to go. If you feel yourself slipping up then you be responsible and do something about it. But don't feel any shame. Stay strong be well and know you are loved
People always complain about millennials but they are paving the way for acceptance of mental health issues and making taking care of mental health as normal as taking care of a broken leg. I feel so badly that you feel this way. I think there are so many more people like you and who want to understand you than you realize. I am thinking about you right now and I hope you are ok. I really hope you are. ♥️♥️♥️
Hi John, why would right thinking rational people not offer kindness? I have Asthma. An illness too. The only difference is that people can see mine and “ understand it!”
Keep on being you, keep on taking your meds( like I do!)maybe join a regular club like a walking group?
I think mostly kindness is more catching that Covid!
I imagine schizophrenia as being all the negative things your mind could possibly go through. Feelings of panic, depression, anxiety, scary compulsions, disturbing thoughts that are constantly and frequently changing, feelings of impending doom.
As someone with a brother who suffered from severe mental illness, I feel the discordant music is sadly appropriate.
The music is not supposed to sound like that. It is warped as a result of the age of the film. Maybe there is some symbolism in that too.
I love watching old shows and especially documentaries. Not only the content is better but being able to 'see' and to a limited extent, experience life in a different era is awesome. Just seeing a 'bookstore', an office cubicle with no computer, and not one soul on a cell phone just going about their day is so simple and calming. Life HAD to have been more peaceful in earlier times........ The music doesn't bother me at all. Harry is darling btw. I love his furrowed, wrinkled brow. He seems lovely and tortured at same time.
Btw ?
@@jerryanstey7058by the way
Such a sad and misunderstood illness, most are good people fighting themselves within their own mind, heartbreaking...
What do you mean most are good people. They are just like everyone else who has a gene that causes a chemical imbalance that changes everything. Just like a physical illness, someone who carries the multiple sclerosis gene that changes their lives. Doesn’t mean some of those people are bad.
I had a friend who was Schiz and Bi-polar. She would call me at all hours scared to death at things she was seeing in her living room. Strangers wanting pizza, dark shadow people, little rowdy kids, and at times monsters....all tormented her often. I told her to tell them straight out..."In the name of Jesus...I rebuke you, be gone." Things went on for years, she went back and forth and her life was shattered. She (in her mind) thought she was "gifted" to be able to see and talk to these things, and even call some by name....even though they were strangers. She said some had told her their names. She and I got along fairly well, but there were times I would just walk away and leave her ranting. She is gone now and I hope she was able to finally find peace.
I do in fact suffer from schizophrenia. My mother also did too . It may seem terrible. But its not the worst thing in the world. It's really not a death sentence. Far worse things in this world than this.
If you haven't already done so please look into the work of Jerry Marzinski.
His channel here on TH-cam is called Engineering mental sanity.
He was a state psychologist for decades and discovered the roots of schizophrenia and the cure.
His work is phenomenal and worth looking into.
He proved psychiatry and conventional medicine totally wrong in their diagnosis and treatment of sufferers.
He has helped sufferers break out of the hell they've had to endure.
@@devina1100 He's bipolar with grandiose features!
Have you looked into mirco dosing on magic mushrooms as treatment rather than doctors pills ???
@@HdHd-cg4nz Taking shrooms while having schizophrenia does not sound like a good idea.
If you can see and hear voices and/or spirits, you are NOT alone or CRAZY ! Unless you dose on meth regularly, or had a serious head injury in the past. You are like me a person with a third eye/ear capability. We represent only about 10% of humanity. I myself was paranoid for sometime. But I did my own research. BTW, I am an Engineer with a highly analytical mind. Once I knew the REAL reason -Spirits- I was set FREE ! I even turned the tables on the evil spirits. I TORMENTED them with Worship Songs, Quoted Holy Scripture to them. Even called them names and mocked them. It drove them away. They'd come back a few days later but I gave them the SAME treatment. Eventually they gave up. I've been meds free for the last 16 years now. The spirits no longer bother me, because I'm NO LONGER FUN to torment. The spirits prefer fearful & confused victims.
Our physical and spirit worlds exists in parallel dimensions, separated by force fields. The spirits can see/hear us, we can't see/hear them NORMALLY. Anything that seriously WEAKENS our body, EMBITTERS our soul, and affects our FAITH in God, also WEAKENS our protective spiritual AURA and allows the evil spirits to communicate with us. Spirits communicate by MENTAL TELEPATHY - mind to mind - that's why ONLY you can see or hear them. That's why the spirits can READ YOUR MIND/THOUGHTS ! You can also secretly TALK/SHOUT to them by TELEPATHY - in the presence of other people. No one will notice and think you're CRAZY !
Spirits can also DISTORT human speech. For example if your friend says " Hello, What's Up ? " it will sound like " You're UGLY & STUPID ! " and so you'll get ANGRY. That's how spirits make you PARANOID & anti-social. The speech distortion happens only a few SECONDS ! The speakers face suddenly changes to an UGLY facial expression ! The Spirits TRUE FACE shows !! Then the face reverts back to normal and the speaker is NOT even aware of what happened. He'll wonder why you're angry at him ! Ive seen this many times !!
The evil spirits want to isolate you socially. You're their TOY ! Spirits can also SHAPE SHIFT - appear in ANY form (animal or people). They can IMITATE other peoples LOOKS/VOICES and pretend like real people. Spirits can also produce SOUNDS like knocking on doors, footsteps, crying or screaming people, scratching on walls, police sirens, barking dogs etc. Their plan is to ISOLATE you socially .. for themselves. Make people think you're CRAZY .. even if you re NOT. Resist them, Don't give up .. or you're really gonna end up crazy. Remember this, its NOT you but THEM (spirits) that's causing this. Fight them. Talk/Shout to them by Telepathy even in the presence of other people, so no one can hear what you're saying.. except the spirit. .
I think Sandy would be diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder today. The emotional pain of psychotic depression can be totally disabling sometimes.. She has exceptional insight which is a rarity, and a realistic view of her life with this condition. I'd love to hear more about her.
She happily married, I’m her son
Maybe, but she could have a form of schizophrenia that responds well to drug treatment. Sometimes it can also have a relapsing and remitting course.
@kevinkant6817 what's wrong with you..stop that nonsense
The young woman with the short dark hair and glasses is very intelligent and insightful.
Agree! Holy smokes though, the length of that needle! I wonder what she was injecting? Haldol? Risperidone?
Agree! She clearly works hard for her ability to cope inside her own skin, in her daily life. That needle though! So long! I wonder what she was injecting? Haldol? Was risperidone even around back then?
And extremely strong
She is a true superhero.
I had a similar thought. I would like to have a conversation with someone like her.
Warning -Soundtrack may induce psychosis..
Definitely made me very anxious.
MACDONALD, Sandra Mae - Suddenly on Tuesday, September 9, 2008 at Scarborough, Sandra, beloved daughter of Bill and Mildred. Sandy leaves several loving cousins and many devoted friends. Her generosity and courage were evident to all. Cremation. A private graveside service was held on Friday, October 24th at the family plot at Westminster Cemetery. If desired, donations to the Canadian Mental Health Association or the Schizophrenia Society of Ontario, North York Chapter would be appreciated.
Wow. I got the Generalized Anxiety Disorder. It was so bad. I thought I was suffering from Schizophrenia, it was so intense. All I know is, I'm glad that I've always been tolerant and I cannot believe that we've had/have people wandering around, left to find their own way. Its terrible. Not being able to do what you need to do. Very real.
The bravest souls on the planet fighting a battle none of us could truly comprehend. I think of Frodo and his burden as he carries the ring. You are each heroes in your own story.
"Its a small price for the benefits you reap". What a great line, Sandy's intelligence is huge, though she may be unwell with her illness, her brain is fantastic, her intellect is awesome
She married and had 2 children!!
@@barneyronnie oh that’s wonderful!!!!!
the older gentleman when he shares his feelings in group about the contrast of residing with or without his mother; I just want so bad to meet him for coffee on Tuesdays regular every week and offer encouragement. (Id hug him but I sense he might not prefer that) Thanks for sharing this so people can see what its like. Bless these strong folks
@@thishandleisntavailable861 why suggest prying? what would be the purpose of prying? would you "pry" if you met the fellow for a coffee? Or would you bond and make friendly human contact? you reckon you can explain the difference? enlighten..
there truly are people in this world who want to honestly care about others in a genuine humanitarian way.
It's interesting that this was filmed around 40-50 years ago and the narrator clearly stated schizophrenia is NOT split personality, yet this misunderstanding is still so prevalent today, which is very frustrating.
The ego is split in schizophrenia. This is where the misunderstanding comes from.
@@chaoticsix that is also not true.
@@cw9007 It is.
@@chaoticsix Ok. How so?
@@cw9007 Read Jeffrey Seinfeld, Guntrip, and R.D. Laing. Expert psychoanalysts who made their careers working with schizoids, schizotypals, and schizophrenics. As someone who is schizoid myself and has had multiple episodes of psychosis, my ego is split, keep in mind, it is the ego, not the person's identity or personality. The ego helps us mediate and regulate between our impulses and our morals.. it also helps us to regulate our emotions in the real world. The schizophrenic person lacks a robust ego. One part weakly interacts with the world and the other lives in unconscious fantasy. This is why schizophrenics tend to be more spiritually gifted than others and more intuitive than others, they have greater access to unconscious processes that others are not familiar with.
A short explanation of how the ego is split... Between ages 0-18 months and by extension ages 0-5. The schizophrenic did not get enough love from their parent which would validate their reality, their existence. Rather than project hate towards their rejecting love object, as the borderline or narcissist does, they split off their ego, likely an involuntary unconscious defensive reaction rather than a purposeful one. One ego, lies in reality, the other was created as a way to maintain a fantasy relationship with their desired object.
When the schizophrenic is stressed or their reality breaks down and they go into psychosis, and enter the realm of fantasy for protection. Even if that fantasy is dark and scary, better that then decompensation in the real world.
Alot of this info comes from the three authors I listed above and my personal subjective schizoid experience.
Additionally, there is absolutely a biological component but it is not all biological. There is alot of evidence that the schizophrenic lacked nurturing from ages 0-5. My info also comes out of object relations theory.
By the way, the narrator of this video, if they are a therapist or psychologist, would have understood everything I had said, they would have been familiar with the psychoanalytic literature at the time, especially R.D. Laing.
It's "all in their heads". And that's the problem. Perhaps the cruelest disease of all.
It may , in fact, be in the gut.
That dear man had such insight....the pain and sadness in his voice brought tears to my eyes. Wish I knew what happened to him and that lovely lady....
What a great insight into this part of Mental Illness. Sandy is great,bless her. When she said about working for a month then being Hospitalized for a month, I could have cried for her. Fantastic that her Boss knew and understood, great milestone getting to the 5 hours of work a day.
She found herself a fellow!! That's a wonderful triumph in her life...
My friend has schizofrenia and it's heartbreaking, she just had a year long episode, finally she out of it, but now she gets electroshock therapy to forget all she has done and seen.
She just want's to be normal, have a job, have kids, have a boyfriend, have a normal social life, but it's not doable because of the illness. Freaking sad 🙁

Poor thing. She’s trying so hard. Bless her for agreeing to do this filming.
Jesus what a horrible affliction to live with. I think I would prefer not to live than to have to live like this every minute of the day. Imagining bees and characters that aren't there. Being completely alone and friendless. Amazing that lady had an employer that was understanding and willing to help her.. I feel bad for the elderly gentleman. He wouldn't be with us in 2019 but I hope he found some comfort and companionship in his time here.
Carlo Santin ❤️
A lovely post
How very sad..i liked Sandy and was very touched by her endeavor to live in the "Normal" world, i wonder how things developed for her.
I loved how it was like 70s or 80s New York or whatever. I felt like I was watching a movie almost. I wanted to be there. On those streets
I think it's Toronto (TTC bus gave it away 😁), and/but agreed!
The music is disturbing!
Lol😅😅😅
i feel bad for the old guy......he has a good personality ..but you can see the torment and worry in his face....hope he is at peace now..same with the woman and the rest....
Massive credit to these people, fighting each day...
The lady with the bowl cut was very lucky in that she had a boss and employer who understood her issues and allowed her to work hours and times which suited her. They were very progressive and people who do things like this really are unsung heroes. Sometimes you just need support and allowances to be made for your frailties but unfortunately these are not things which are encouraged or promoted / taught generally in society.
“The lady with the bowl cut was very lucky” is a phrase I’ve never heard before 🤔😂
@@meganlee162 The bowlcutted lady. Elton John lookalike lady.
The state paid part of the wage. I worked in a similar situation except someone got murdered. Really ruined the idea of being a butcher for Halloween that year.
the bowlcut was the cause, not a symptom
@@JonSmith-cx7gr sung to the tune of Greeneyed Lady
Sandy is a real sweet girl with excellent insight into her condition
I agree. All of a sudden I'm fascinated on how the mind can play tricks on one
@Israel me too
For every family afflicted with someone they know with this disease. We here your prayers. I think this girl is awsome and brave.
Brave, Brave People. I am filled with enormous admiration of the quality of character, integrity and perseverance for the afflicted featured in this documentary. I mean, just wow. Sending so much love to everyone working super hard to do the tasks of every day life, that require the diligence of champions-and you are~champions, through and through.
Especially hard for those that are misunderstood by their family and left to face it alone.
😅😅😅
I dont like taking my medication either. But I'm afraid I might lose my mind if I don't
😑😙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Hopefully you ok
Such courage to speak openly about this illness to help and educate people I have so much respect and admiration for these people.
I suffer from Bipolar I with Schizotypal Personality Disorder, and this is extremely well put, it's always best to learn from the people who experience it.

Do you hear voices?
Just came across these docs and they are fascinating and insightful. As a nurse it’s saddens me that MH treatment almost seems to have gone backwards. Getting rid of long term hospitals for these people was a mistake IMO. Like the gal said….it was a place for her to go when she felt extremely overwhelmed…..a place where she could go where she felt safe enough to stop controlling her inner self as much as she has to in every day life out in the world…a respite. And now, outpatient MH treatment and medicinal treatment can be a pipe dream for many because they don’t have health care insurance which results in them having little to no access to treatment And consequently, many turn to substance abuse to cope or they end up going thru the revolving door of the criminal system. It’s heartbreaking to me. Why after all these years have we seemed to get worse and not better……😢
I take trilafon, methadone, lorazepam, risperdal and and Divalproex ER. These medications prevent delusional thinking and hallucinations. No doubt, my medications are also suggestive of my battle with addiction. Thanks for listening.

So grateful to have nurses like you, thanks for being so compassionate and caring about mental health patients.
Harry/Sve is (or by this time, was) a very intelligent man. The way he put many things was eloquent and poetic. So sad that he never had a companion. But for the grace of God go I.
Dear lord that music alone could push me over the edge.
It is tragic that we can fly to Mars but cannot help such fates from the therapist's point of view. These people stand on the brink for their entire life, the assistance is always very fragile, small deviations are often enough for a catastrophe. Most of the actors in the film will no longer be alive, terribly having to say that they have only now found their peace.
We haven't even been to the moon.
Wow. Old docu. But good, you can see the absolute struggle and weariness in their face, made me feel so lucky.
I guess I'm the only one digging the music.
Billy Badass sounds like Connan Mockasins new record
Music?
It sounds like a stretched tape playing.
I haven't heard that for a while.
Progressive, progressive Belgian jazz I'll wager 😃

Absolutely Chaotic and no rest from the durg - guess it's trying to depict the condition.

2021...you still viewing...!!
Good video. It's good that Sandy and Harry did all the talking. No crisis music or effects in the background, Just straight up story telling. I hope they were OK eventually, in today's world it would be very hard for them.
What’s with the music? Sounds like a 45 played on a 33 1/3 record.
The music of madness
It’s from “Sounds of Schizophrenia”, by MUZAK.
this is film not video, and the sound was done with equipment which had really bad speed variation
That music at the beginning is Living with Sound and Fury in itself!
Without medicine, I'm in intense pain, like psychological agony and everything turns to soup. With meds, I end up high a few times a month, which destroys the day with running, jumping or other nonsense. I still get hijacked. I've received good care from the VA and am living better than I have most of my life. I never understood how talking with people would help so much. It keeps me in the world longer. I'm working on my behavior, which is often learned and inappropriate or odd to others. It's chaos. I have my November box. Putin is talking to me through the music. What do I do? I turn the song or shut it off. It is really, really annoying.
Your ok. And loved.
I hope you're doing ok and know that people care about you.
Turn in your guns and keep taking your meds....easy does it big boy!
it's not easy, far from it.
@@icephoenix8023 That's just pretty damn insensitive of you to say
My hubby thought I was watching a cheesy 70s porn 😂😂😂
😂😂😂 bet he thought he was in for a treat.
Soundtrack wasn't much better than that
Love the music. Fits perfectly with the subject matter!
The music alone in this documentary is enough to make anyone insane. Freaked me out.
The warbled sound will either make you laugh or terrify you.
Thank you for posting this documentary. I want to be less ignorant regarding mental illness and this helps.
the music is beautiful in its own way io see it as a reminder that nothing in life is necessarily perfect
Ok Lol😅😅
That's a lovely and really interesting way to put it. I totally agree.
You sound like those 12-16 y/o white girls that always make a big deal out of nothing... -__-
Keep in mind the music isn’t intentionally distorted - if you listen carefully, you can hear that continuous sounds in the real-life environments are also distorted. (You can’t hear it in the voices b/c they naturally rise and fall.) Probably the age of the film has caused it to warp, which has distorted the soundtrack.
I wonder if there was a way to fix it using some sound "un-warping" software.
Its very treatable if you take your medication....I have a brother who is bipolar....when he doesn't take his medication he is off the wall...when he does take it he is fine....problem is people who think they don't need it....should be teams who go to house's to make sure the sick take the meds
Im melting with that warped sounddddd
I got three killer flashbacks from the sound track alone..
Consumer of psychiatry, very intelligent man...
Very sad I’d love to know how their lives progressed or not
Same. How is sandy now I wonder
The music playing with the video makes me feel like I have schizophrenia….
I know a chap that says its like a radio in his head 24.7..Theres a spiritual element in play also .Times have changed and with 5 th generation medications available for treatment many people lives have been transformed and that allows them to interact and carry out social interaction in the community.
people that say its like a radio are full of shit. Its like mishearing conversation and misperceving whats being heard. The meds are effective enough to allow some recovery as they last longer now.Nothing else has changed and for the most part do not address the disability caused by schizophrenia. the voices may be gone but so is my ability to remember things.
Yeah, that sexy sax meets bad acid trip music hooked me in immediately.
My heart goes out to these men and women living with Schizophrenia, what courage and resilience they have needed to exist in this cold bloody world.. I hope they all found some love and tenderness somewhere along the line
I have schitz, it suuuuucked until my meds got right, it took about a year for my brain on meds to get right. Hang in there my friends.
What a great find. Thank you.
A lot of what they describe seems normal to me, but here the issues are more extreme, intense and overwhelming. Sympathy.
This was fascinating. I now have a better understanding of this illness because of the people in this film. Sandy’s descriptions were very lucid and and I could really grasp what she was going through. Harry helped me understand the very sad and lonely aspect. My sister in law is schizophrenic. I have a better understanding now. Thank you to the brave patients in this film.

@@itsme2365 hi. The comment was in reference to someone who commented about the soundtrack /background music. Their comment was either deleted or in another thread, sorry.
@@itsme2365 this indeed was such a fascinating glimpse into a such complex and misunderstood part of us as humans.
@@wheelz23 thank you for clearing that up.
Wow! Brilliant! Thanks for this documentary.
I have felt like this all of my 55 years it has destroyed every part of my life
Are you being treated? 💙💙💙💙💙💙

You poor darlings, I just wish I could help you all to find love, peace, and happiness. I have been there for many years, and believe me, everything in the name of God and love is possible. First step .... Love Yourselves ❤️ YOU are so special and you can change and take charge of your lives. God, love, and hope are always with you.
A good friend of mine lives with it. Hes one of the smartest guys ive ever met and you'd never know but some days are pretty frightening.
It's amazing how well these folks can explain what's going on with themselves. They are very well aware that things aren't right. And how scared of themselves they are. To bad the health system let them down and wasn't able to help them. Instead of heavy medication, coping skills would have been very helpful. I think
Sad thing is, most of these patients are probably dead as a result of the devestating physical effects of typical anti-psychotic medications.
When I first read your comment I thought you were just being a bit morbid and miserable but actually you're so right. I take more modern meds for this condition and even these have caused me horrendous side effects, before I went on my meds I was physically healthy but fast forward 6 years and I've got joint problems, heart problems, damage to my eyesight and other things so I can't imagine what horrible side effects the poor people in this video must have suffered
You are sadly correct. Peter Breggin who is a psychiatrist who knows the true hazardous nature of these compounds.
When I got on meds I immediately fast tracked to fat city. Took years to get rid of all that extra weight
@@Consistentlycrazy Maybe I was exaggerating it a bit but the side effects of these older meds were bad. I hope you can regain your health despite your illness.
If you can see and hear voices and/or spirits, you are NOT alone or CRAZY ! Unless you dose on meth regularly, or had a serious head injury in the past. You are like me a person with a third eye/ear capability. We represent only about 10% of humanity. I myself was paranoid for sometime. But I did my own research. BTW, I am an Engineer with a highly analytical mind. Once I knew the REAL reason -Spirits- I was set FREE ! I even turned the tables on the evil spirits. I TORMENTED them with Worship Songs, Quoted Holy Scripture to them. Even called them names and mocked them. It drove them away. They'd come back a few days later but I gave them the SAME treatment. Eventually they gave up. I've been meds free for the last 16 years now. The spirits no longer bother me, because I'm NO LONGER FUN to torment. The spirits prefer fearful & confused victims.
Our physical and spirit worlds exists in parallel dimensions, separated by force fields. The spirits can see/hear us, we can't see/hear them NORMALLY. Anything that seriously WEAKENS our body, EMBITTERS our soul, and affects our FAITH in God, also WEAKENS our protective spiritual AURA and allows the evil spirits to communicate with us. Spirits communicate by MENTAL TELEPATHY - mind to mind - that's why ONLY you can see or hear them. That's why the spirits can READ YOUR MIND/THOUGHTS too ! You can also secretly TALK/SHOUT to them by TELEPATHY - in the presence of other people. No one will notice and think you're CRAZY !
Spirits can also DISTORT human speech. For example if your friend says " Hello, What's Up ? " it will sound like " You're UGLY & STUPID ! " and so you'll get ANGRY. That's how spirits make you PARANOID & anti-social. The speech distortion happens only a few SECONDS ! The speakers face suddenly changes to an UGLY facial expression ! The Spirits TRUE FACE shows !! Then the face reverts back to normal and the speaker is NOT even aware of what happened. He'll wonder why you're angry at him ! Ive seen this many times !!
The evil spirits want to isolate you socially. You're their TOY ! Spirits can also SHAPE SHIFT - appear in ANY form (animal or people). They can IMITATE other peoples LOOKS/VOICES and pretend like real people. Spirits can also produce SOUNDS like knocking on doors, footsteps, crying or screaming people, scratching on walls, police sirens, barking dogs etc. Their plan is to ISOLATE you socially .. for themselves. Make people think you're CRAZY .. even if you re NOT. Resist them, Don't give up .. or you're really gonna end up crazy. Remember this, its NOT you but THEM (spirits) that's causing this. Fight them. Talk/Shout to them by Telepathy even in the presence of other people, so no one can hear what you're saying.. except the spirit. .
Wow they can explain every clearly of what they think and feel the mind is amazing in these mental conditions.
Full of Sound and Fury: Living with Schizophrenia
Schizophrenia, one of the most common major mental illnesses, shatters persons. This sympathetic film presents the experiences of three sufferers of the debilitating disease. Tzvie, 50-years-old, articulately describes the anguish and loneliness of his marginal existence and his craving for a useful life. Sandy, able to maintain a part-time job, speaks of her daily struggle with delusions, fear, and isolation. Judy, the mother of a brilliant young schizophrenic, recounts the mental torment that drove her son to suicide. Although new drugs offer imperfect help, schizophrenics, with their pain and vulnerabliity, remain largely hostages to our compassion.

Sir you should write a book about all your thoughts day to day I love how he expressed himself
I have schizoaffective disorder. This film is amazingly hopeless and pessimistic. Things have changed in the way the media presents serious and persistent mental illness. Now its much more fashionable to show the story of recovery and overcoming. I kind of appreciate this film’s darkness because living with a schizophrenia spectrum illness is not a fairytale.
My best friend while growing up developed Schizophrenia. He started drinking heavily and died in the late 90s
Also have a friend whose brother had Schizophrenia. His brother died in a hospital.
Spent his last few days searching for and drinking hand sanitizer.
Brutal disease.
This was very touching.
The bendy wow and flutter from the tape soundtrack must be separate than the vocal sound track . I’m guessing this was filmed circa 1983 or 85
Cars on the street are mid to late 70's.
I have had old cassette tapes like this something about being old distorts and warbles the sound.
Late 70s
It’s amazing to see how much depth these people have as well as being able to explain it with such clarity. They actually seemed more together than most people today.
I think that’s because the world was different
Even the background sound is like confused...
Zita Ani does though...
What you observe heals you, what you control/hide condemns you to more of the same. Perhaps this is the purpose of psychiatry. We can all listen without judgement, and in a small way we can contribute to helping those suffering silently around us? A little empathy is all humanity needs!
If saxophones aren’t bad enough, it has to be distorted on a documentary about schizophrenia 🤪
She nailed it. As a disabled person I have something to give too just not as much as a normal or talented person
I respect this young lady..God Bless Her..
She is so well spoken and obviously an incredible person.
These people live about 10 to 15 years less than others. I'm not a physician, but the damage done to the body's organs by the medicines is significant. They also smoke. ( a lot )
You would be correct. Don't think for a second that any of the shit we ingest in 2019 will increase life expectancy. Especially Medications for the real Mentally Ill. Combinations of Prescription Drugs is the main killer. I've heard about the old Mental Hospitals would give the patients several pills to counter the effect of certain pills while to make the patient quite and calm. You already know the after effects of these medications
These people??? Imagine the heart aches of having a child with this disease. Lets see !! your the type that would throw these people away even if it's your own flesh and blood.
your organs will wither away the same as mine my friend. Have a great night.
@rob yohn congrats
I had a hospitalised friend he was into fitness football in a big way ,on the meds he constantly now chain smokes .I can no longer hold a conversation with him his perception of reality as gone
@@carliebeau5329 you're getting way too emotionally defensive over a complete assumption. What a nasty, self-righteous attitude.
We were all made insane by the imposition of the psychopathically delusional belief that humans have individual wills. By thinking we are magically apart from life we discounted what it is to be life, robbing ourselves of grace and reason.
really good documentary
Appropriate madness soundtrack for the story line.
Thank you for sharing!!. I also started hearing the voices, along with the shadows. I started thinking about my life and memories brought me to the conclusion that I have always heard voices but never paid attention to where they was coming from. I am 31 and noticed the voices big time now. The voices ont feel fake, they even tell me it's nanotechnology and the people. For me it even feels that the whole world is in on this conspiracy that I like to believe schitsofrenia is made up. The voices tell me I'm targeted because I'm perverted and what not. My thoughts are read before I even noticed them. I search nanotechnology and it's a technology that can manipulate your mind and manipulate your feelings. Something positive I can leave you with is, find a way to love music, wear headphones! A good pair. Watch good movies that fill your heart up with happiness and tranquility. . Prepare yourself for one day your love of your life is no longer in your life. Save money for the rainy days. Love you !!

So... apparently that "unsettling" wobbling in the music has a name. It's called, the 'wow and flutter' effect, and it happens because of imperfections in the tape or turntable (vinyl): the live played music got recorded and "glued" onto non-straight platforms creating wavy music. This is the best way I could understand this chilling music, anyway. Thankfully, technology has drastically changed since!
When the voices go quiet I worry cause wtf do they have planed
