What should I react to next?
Have you thought about reacting to DID youtubers? like DISSOCIADID? things like different Alters, how DID comes and what can be other things that can come up with DID like having patients with BPD.
Soft white underbelly has a video titled schizophrenic man interview- Chris (different Chris) it’s a young man who’s currently on medication explaining in great detail what it’s like for him during psychosis and what it’s like for him every day even on medication. Very interesting, would love to see your take.
Cassy, she seems to have such conflict. She also did a SBSK episode and had support from her roommate and her conflict showed even more in that interview.

Rebecca on the Soft White Underbelly channel always pulls at my heartstrings...
As a caregiver, I've had the opportunity to interact with people with schizophrenia. As a psych major, I will carry those connections with me into my career. It is very difficult to treat and they have such tormented daily lives. They cannot trust their own thoughts or perceptions, cannot tell fact from fiction. And they are so vulnerable to homelessness and drug use. We need to help and protect people with schizophrenia.
Just try living with one thar refuses to take meds and goes around screaming and traumatizing children in the neighborhood. Social services says we don't have any rights. Only she does. And they're not going to do anything about it. Frustrating as Hell.
@@KatJ3styeah EXACTLY the point the person was trying to make, THEY NEED MORE HELP from the GOVERNMENT! No one chooses to be sick, no one wants to be sick and put their living hell on others. Its just sad all around, thats why we kill ourselfs
Why won't the state help them?
@@MrOceansmoney
I have scitzophrenia and I have to disagree about not knowing fact from fiction. I have hallucinations and disillusions, and perhaps while having these things you don't know. But if you study about your illness you then can have an ability to determine what's real from not,even if it takes some time to understand. I learned that from John Nash a mathematician in college diagnosed with scitzophrenia.
my dad passed away from schizophrenia . He was 60 years old . I was put into foster care because both parents were schizophrenic and borderline. I’m lucky i don’t have schizophrenia but have had severe anxiety disorder my whole whole life ..
I used to work under psychiatrist at an inpatient facility and I have to say respectfully, you seem to have a great personality for this field. You have a natural calm presence and soothing voice. Not all of the psychiatrist that I’ve worked under were like this. I think you’re really going to help a lot of people in need. Thank you for your content!
I absolutely agree! You have a wonderful and enlightening presence for us clinicians to learn from as well. I appreciate you, Dr. Syl 😊
I enjoy your calm voice and your patient way of explaining things .you would be an ideal counselor & psychiatrist for bipolar & borderline PD
My son has schizophrenia. He's still struggling with it, we've tried so many different medications. Currently on 300mg clozapine. Still hoping for a better outcome. He's only 25. 😢 It's affected our entire family.
Hope you're ok
@@treynoldsman1981 I'm doing my best! Thanks.
I am a psych student and I appreciate your content so much, particularly your use of terminology and application. It’s helping me understand the terminology so much more. I study remotely so it’s hard at times to engage with online lectures. You are delivering it in such an interesting manner, so thank you I appreciate it.
Educational, thank you. I do feel bad for this young man. The services in the US for mental health patients seems minimal to non existent. I fail to see how he had capacity to consent to this interview 😔
This is such an important issue. It may be that recording was part of the treatment agreement and then, once he was adhering to meds, he was able to provide informed consent for it to be released. Perhaps the original post might have more info?
@@z3lda808lol he got paid for this, that's why he did it. He's probably still on Skid Row with no treatment
Your narrative is so very helpful to understand these things that are not understandable to most. Thank you Dr Syl
I used to work as a nurse at a high security forensic Psychiatric hospital in Melbourne, Australia. Definitely some amazing, intense and interesting memories from that role.
Great analysis. I watched all of Chris' interviews. And have seen him in another video , he was lined up to get food & he was wearing a suit. His behavior was the same , quiet & polite , distant. His dad & sister are interviewed by Mark, as they went to CA to try and find & get Chris help. In Marks latest video of Chris he is still on the streets, not taking his meds. I cant remember if he agreed to speak to father or go home. This is sad , a young man who is ill & his life its at risk. Hes been on the streets for a few yrs now. To me he seems likeable.
The follow up video is super interesting, I think Mark was contacted by his family
Oh that's good to know, thanks!
Yes, it was a good follow-up video.
The way you speak is so gentle and genuine. Thank you for doing these videos, it helps me understand my family more with these kind of issues ❤
The interviewer answered for him when he asked about childhood abuse. “There wasn’t any abuse or anything right?” I think most people would answer no, with the way that was phrased. With his dad being an alcoholic I bet there was some trauma there but he just agreed with the interviewer.
Thank you Dr Syl for this analysis and Saying that schizophrenia is treatable and 60 percent have a good outcome. It's a serious illness but it doesn't mean we can't live a normal life with some help. I would trust you more than most psychiatrists I have seen
Thank you Dr Syl, another great reaction video, this was so educational.
Chris was having so much difficulty during the interview but the interviewer Mark was so respectful and kind, offering signpost to further help and gently repeating their questions when Chris was distracted.
It’s devastating to watch this kid. I hope they find a way to help him.
I agree, very sad
There's no money in it.
Hi from Prague. I'm a creativity and personal development coach. I just want to thank you for these videos. Inevitably, I come accross clients with deeper problems than time management or self-esteem and your insights help me be more aware of symptoms that might need a more serious treatment. I feel like my work is in the front line and I have the opportunity to perhaps catch something early on or refer people to specialists. I also appreciate your kindness and care, which is always particularly nice to see in a man. We need more people like you.
I'm so excited to find your channel! It is everything I'm interested in and you are great at observing and characterizing the symptoms he is experiencing.
I watched the video when it was aired , very hard to watch, your video gives a great insight into what’s actually happening, thank you .. heartbreaking 💔
Thank you for your videoes. I have paranoid schizophrenia and general anxiety, and mild ptsd. Your videoes help me. 💖
I'm only a new fan but I enjoy your videos. I appreciate the pace at which you talk 👍
You are very talented. I love that you can understand how loud the voices are and how impossible it is to pay attention despite how much you may want to. I'm sorry that you wound up having one of the hardest jobs in the world!
Hey Dr Syl, I am a prov psych and my caseload is mostly schizophrenia. Your insights are very helpful, as the typical presentations I work with are on par with this gentleman. Thank you so much :)
Thank you for your most informative video. I'm a great fan of the work Mark is doing in Soft White Underbelly. It's a great service, I think, to allow people who struggle to have a voice and to tell their stories. My compassion has multiplied, and my eyes have been opened.
I love Mark and 'Soft White Underbelly'. I dont know how he does it because he has literally seen it all and it is hard not to carry that. You cant unsee or unfeel these people. Thank you Mark Laita.
My brother in law is taking medication for psychosis. He has to be injected. I was told it's schizophrenia, he is such a lovely gentle man. But he does not appear to be getting more help other than medication. I've asked my husband about that a few months ago but his family don't believe in it. 😔 BIL just seems so uncertain of himself. If anyone has advice would be appreciated.
In July I went back into social work after a 6 year break. I'm seeing more and more people with long histories of drug addiction and it's very sad. A good many have the potential for recovery but they struggle. May this man find his way and needed support.
Your channel is so cool and interesting! Keep it up
Very interesting video thank you for sharing❤
Another great video ❤
I learned alot from you Dr. Thank you for this vid
Soft white underbelly is an amazing channel.
Thank you for another interesting video.
I have schizophrenia and the best thing to do is to stay close to those who love you
Totaly understand for infection antibiotics need to be used but i wish the medical field was more informed about the mental health decline caused by the anibiotics distrupting the microbiome, even one round of antibiotics can cause mental health problems like anxiety and depression, the gut holds neurons and signals are sent via the axis of the gut to the brain, when this is out of harmony it distrupts the neurons and dopamine , please remember to take probiotics that include bifidobacterium longum and Helveticus when taking an antibiotic
My son is schizophrenic. I have been dealing with it for about 14 years. Frontline, Daily emersion into this hellish decease. Here is what I have learned. The mental health system in place in America today fails schizophrenics. Complete failure. Let me explain. My son has been admitted to mental health hospitals over a dozen times. They hold him there and give him medicine and he returns to a state that seems normal. Here's the failure part. Then they release him. Within a week he has collapsed right back to a homeless drug user every time. I've seen some of the bills for this treatment. Keep in mind tax payers pay for this. Usually they will keep him for a week but I have seen him stay as much as 30 days. The bill for that thirty day stint was over 80K. In an old fashioned mental institution that would have taken care of him for over a year and that's what he needs. A hospital where he can't leave and is given his meds daily. He would be a great patient. When he is on his meds he is kind and glad to be helpful. At a place like that he would love to help in the dining room or laundry and it would give him a sense of purpose. Instead he roller coasters between clinics and sleeping on the street. It's is just sad that we spend the time, money and resources but it is mostly wasted on the wrong kind of treatment. Also, don't even begin to tell me you somehow know better. I have lived this. Long term in facility treatment is the only thing close to dealing with this in a compassionate way.
ty for your vids ❤🙏
Thank you so much! Whatever you did made the quality much better. This is a very good video!
I love your videos, it got me into amisulpride. I just want to thank you for propagating the truth. I have insomnia but i've been using ashwagandha.
This is why I do not to drugs. I've tried weed and acid and definitely went into severe severe panic attacks. I actually got PTSD from LSD. What confuses me is that with how terrifying that feeling of losing control is...why would people do them again?
Perhaps their reality is worse, so drug taking is a form of escape for them.... very sad 😔
@@junesaunders6725 that can be very true. Good point!
I never even tried drugs. Always had the idea that it would make me go crazy. No saint though: love alcohol way too much.
Because not everyone is the same and has the same reactions to drugs. For me weed is chill, and lsd gave me some of the most intriguing and euphoric experiences in my life. I don't lose control, at least not on psychedelics.
@@sofie1065Alcohol is a hard drug. Literally on the level of heroine if abused too much.
If psychedelics make schizophrenia worse because they make it harder to stay grounded enough in the real world, but things like psilocybin can improve depression, is it arguable that depression is often caused by living too much in the real world?
Soft white underbelly has a video titled schizophrenic man interview- Chris (different Chris) it’s a young man who’s currently on medication explaining in great detail what it’s like for him during psychosis and what it’s like for him every day even on medication. Very interesting, would love to see your take.
6:59 Do you have a citation for the proposition that classical serotonergic psychedelics are contraindicated for schizophrenia? I've never seen a study that said that. I've never even seen a study that found an increase of incidence or symptoms. But, I've seen studies and metastudies that found benefits. E.g., "Psychedelics and schizophrenia" by Javier González-Maeso and Stuart C. Sealfon (2009).
Perhaps you aren't familiar with the term but "skid row"(US term, I'm guessing) is very impoverished area with many homeless people. Most (though not all) but his hygiene and appearance would be affected. High numbers of homeless people are also severely mentally ill. We lack the support systems of other Westernized countries, very sadly. You do a good idea, but I thought this information might be helpful.
Hey Dr Syl, have you watched any videos of Ren? His music is amazing and has been inspired by his own person struggle with mental illness. Would be interested in your take as you are able to articulate in an understandable way.
You are so pint on! And I think this is so important!
15:51 poor thing is so clearly lost - im glad he got back in contact with his family.
I think it would tell a lot if we could hear what high school was LIKE. Often the point is finished whith the fact if someone went to school AT ALL. Very telling, I think is the fact that he first started talking more than half a sentence when the topic came to his drug use. Often, sadly, these experiences are intimate and emotional unlike other experiences in personal connection and work.
Thank you.
I have a Son with a dual diagnosis of Schizophrenia and Meth addiction. You had mentioned that if they are not ready to quit just support them. Could you elaborate? I struggle with being supportive and not enabling.
I’m not finished watching yet, so you may cover this. Can substance induced psychosis last indefinitely? Even without the substance that triggered it?
Do you have any recommended reasons for the things you mention at 10:44? Thank you!
I’ve been in therapy since 18 after my 2nd attempt. In the USA you would never ‘tell’ a patient “there was NO abuse or anything crazy like that “ even if they were declared incompetent and clinically insane . That is considered programming response by the counselor . Complete ignorance of the practice of listening, and encouraging the patient to share their own ‘story’ even if it’s full of lies, half truths and inconsistencies, which is often the case when the memory attempts to protect the patient from pain by altering memories from their actual accurate history
The problem with analyzing an interview like that is we don’t know if the guy is on drugs while he’s doing the interview. You could be analyzing the effects of whichever drug he might be on instead of or combined with the symptoms of mental illness.
Handsome guy, so young, mental issues + drugs is a big no. I hope someone is following him
Greetings from Egypt 🇪🇬
I've never ever understood the meth addiction.
Looking at people on meth gives me anxiety.
When their arms are moving all over by themself, their upper body is moving in another direction and their heads turning almost around.
It looks like Adams family or some horror thing when your body is possessed.
It's absolutely impossible for me to understand how someone can like being like that.
MDMA I definitely understand! That seems amazing, I'd love to be like that.
Also opioids, that I can understand.
But the meth thing just looks like the most horrible way of being.
Is it that they don't feel the way it looks?
Do they feel amazing?
They don't feel the arms and body living it's own life?
What does it feel like to be totally out there on meth?
The MA in MDMA is literally methamphetamine so, do with that what you will.
This sounds way more like crack cocaine addiction than it does meth addiction. Many meth users are normal, functioning people and you'd never be able to guess they're using. Methamphetamine is a legal prescription medication in the US as well. Everyone reacts to drugs differently, so there are some case where people have a reaction to methamphetamine that causes the symptoms you describe. However, when I used meth, nearly everyone I knew who used either worked or took care of their multiple children without nearly anyone who wasn't using with them knowing what they were doing. I worked well in excess of 80 hours a week at one point when I was using at a business that I owned, and at another point I had a successful marriage and family life and when we decided to clean up, it wasn't the difficult to nearly impossible situation getting off of a drug that causes physical dependence like an opioid or benzo. Alcohol is by far the worst drug imo to become addicted and dependent on. I hold strong in my opinion that the effects of alcoholism itself ruin people and ruin families, whereas the effects of the social stigma and stricter laws surrounding the use of methamphetamine are responsible for a greater number of the social issues and ruined lives/families than anyone cares to admit. I don't think anyone should use drugs, especially not in an ongoing addiction, and there are negative effects on your health galore - but it is not the same level of physical detriment for everyone or even for the majority. Ideas like this encourage social stigma & discourage those in active addiction from seeking treatment. Just food for thought.
Just found your channel the other day and subbed. First I was like, "He's a Psyche Dr.???? Dang he's CUTE!!!" (Can you be MY Dr.??? lol) . After I moved on from that thought I enjoyed some of the videos I had to time to watch.
Dr. Syl, have you seen the video of an autistic sociopath (i think that's the title) by the Special books by special kids's channel? I'd like to know your thoughts on it if you can please
I've been called a autistic sociopath by the ignorant and uneducated indifferent and those whom discriminate as well. It's the main theme of neurodivergence.
Howyagoin, Doctor. I'm not entirely sure how to open this comment, because it's gonna be a long one.
I'm a functional alcoholic and a cigarette smoker, and you reacted to an episode of Scrubs that finally convinced me to quit both. I don't truly know the risks, you're right, and I'm the last guy in my friend group smoking or drinking. I'm drunk right now, but I don't intend to stay that way forever. I have a binge cycle I need to break, where I work 14 hours on Saturday, then get totally wasted on Sunday, and piece it pack together through the week.
I wish Chris hadn't brought up meth. My co-best friend, the son in our Trinity, got into meth in the last year or so, and I wasn't in town to help him. He lost many people, including me, so I understand his impulse to do hard drugs. He's a musician, he can find them. I did every. Last. Thing. He's gone, now.
Thank you for your help.
I'm sorry for your loss.
I wish more clinicians were so fun and *(seemingly)* normal 😄lol
_(but tragically, many psychiatrists struggle with the HORRIFIC psychiatric condition known as 'zero personality disorder')_ #ZPDawareness
🤣
Fun? Are you serious? He is laughing while talking about someone with schizofrenia. I bet you laugh when you see homeless people as well. Disgusting comment.
When I was in my early twenties I tried pot for the first time, and I believe it put me into a psychotic state. I continued to use it, even though it induced this state in me. It's hard to describe, but I 'disappeared'. My self became very difficult to find, and I couldn't perceive my environment properly. There's schizophrenia in my family background, and my personality may be schizoid (not firmly diagnosed, but noted as a possibility by an assessing psychiatrist). As I've grown older, I no longer have this intense reaction to marijuana- I manage to stay within reality and in control.
Dr Syl, please tell me how to contact you. Thank you.
Thanks
Thank you!
Hey! Genuinely interested, as Bipolar 1 myself, how treatment of drug induced psychosis is “the same” as non-drug induced psychosis? Seems like treatment of drug induced would be #1: getting off meth, for example. But if you are psychotic without drug use, then that step can’t happen.
unfortunately, there is little on SWU to distinguish this from his other interview of the other schizophrenic Chris he met on Skid Row. I was hoping this video would be on the other video which I had just watched
This was heartbreaking to watch
19:15 - 19:36 You said here that "there's no talking someone out of psychosis". Could you go into this in more depth? Some people are able to manage their psychosis, so there is some aspect of control that one can exert over their psychosis, which I would think means that conversation can impact psychosis at least.
There’s people that have some level of insight during psychosis. So if they do some reality testing it could help.
If they have a delusion of being spied on by the government, instead of having thoughts exploring it and worsening it, they could have thoughts like
“Why would the government event want to spy on me”
I use to think I caused a car accident and whenever the delusion entered my mind, I reminded myself that if it happened, the cops would’ve arrested me already
This guy reminds me so much of my brother in law. He’s absent and distracted and delayed. He sounds like he’s mumbling.
he did another update 2 months ago it sounded a bit more hopeful than the last ones he still does not look good and for me to notice things like that usually the emotions are on the extremes with the people
More SWU please!
You oughta see the latest follow up with Chris. He deteriorated horribly.
Great video. I’m a big fan of Soft White Underbelly channel and have only recently found your channel which I am finding so very interesting. I have a strong interest in humans. I would love if you could do an analysis of “Rebecca” from SWU. There is a playlist there which has been developed over the past few years. Rebecca is so smart and engaging but messed up. I would be interested in your observations. ❤
Yes I agree, I would love to see what he has to say about Rebecca
Me too !
pls react to his latest follow up on chris.. super sad :/
FYI: editing at 5:01 and 5:19. When I have accidentally posted a video with editing errors, I've always wished someone would have told me, so I'm commenting. You probably know you can delete the alternate takes in TH-cam Studio on the editor tab. Whether or not you edit the video, just delete this comment because it's not really about the video.
This reminds me of seeing a documentary about the eugenic race institute we had in sweden in the 20s, measuring and photographing the "less desirable races" as to avoid degenerative mixing of the races, made without consent or regard for the actual human being studied.
This interrogation of a severly mentally ill young man, without a single hint of empathy feels just as inhumane.
It's inexplicable to me why you are more interested about his daily drug use than the actual reasons for his psychosis and a deeper analysis about why he left his parents etc. Just completely missing the mark and as such no important information is gained.
He is obviously completely broken down, ashamed and hearing voices, so asking him to be alert (through a microphone?) is just obnoxious.
This is not help. This is shaming and humiliating a human being who clearly is suffering deep trauma from being emotionally abandoned as a child. The drugs being the distal cause and certainly not the proximal. You are just reading out of the DSM for the analysis. Pretty poor effort to say the least. And the way you are laughing through that last part is very disturbing as well.
I feel so sad for him when you put him on the spot about quitting and making him self concious about what he clearly is unable to stop.
If this is the state of psychology and care for our most vulnerable it's no wonder mental illness is on the rise.
Not educated at all in this, except that I learned from reading. Not only drugs can cause psychosis, also trauma of any sort. So drugs really doesn't have to be the culprit for Schizophrenia to get triggered. At the same time, Schizophrenia and probably Bipolar has very limited research and have been changed since the 70's. I also want to point out, that memories and feelings are very interconnected and that connection is pretty much the easiest way for our brain to recall memories or feelings, or other senses like smell etc. So, this last thing I'm gonna mention is more just a theory of mine, but should be pretty logical in my opinion. That is, that even a memory that, most likely is traumatic, and therefor is "mentally ignored" to cope, could easily be triggered when for example feeling or smelling something that is associated with this traumatic memory.
Please, educate me if I am wrong, the last thing I want to do, is to spread false information. That's already done so well about drugs in general for example.
So indica is good. Sativa bad. 🤣 I do a hybrid that’s helpful for me
For future reference you should at least link the video you are reviewing in the description
I hope I am not breaking any rules with this comment. If you live in the United States, you have to die of your illness. If you have wealthy caregivers And healthy people around you for support, you don’t have options. Most people can’t afford health care. Especially mental health care. Most are too afraid to admit it, because they’re afraid to lose everything. My son died suffering from mental illness at 35 years old. There are very few resources and zero follow up options. 🇱🇷🤯
Just heartbreaking to hear. If we can't take care of these people, then the state does not care or exists for us.
In assessing this man based on this video, it could be quite enlightening to see the couple previous videos. Some of his answers are completely different, including his age, prescribed medications, childhood experiences, when his symptoms began etc... He's clearly not in touch with reality in this video at all, and I don't know if he's even able to really hear or understand Mark here.
I love Soft White Underbelly ❤
well
I'm surprised its not the medications making people have this "affect" and slowed speech, vs. Their actual symptoms. After a while, how can you really tell the difference? 😢 I just see overmedicated people suffering side effects of the meds. Sad.
The drug abuse on top/unhealthy lifestyle doesn't do any good to alleviate any of those sx's.
The only medication that causes hyper salivation would be Clozapine. Doubt he’s taking Clozapine due to his being homeless, unstable, and no support system.
I prefer your exclusively-educational videos over these “reaction”-type videos.
I like both. I think with the educational ones, you gain knowledge, and with the reaction ones, you have examples of actual people living with different mental health illnesses or/and conditions.
i prefer both. but i do miss him reacting to old vintage interviews of people with mental disorders.
That was so sad... we all need Jesus
Being religious does not prevent or treat serious mental illness. I have several good friends with major depression and/or bipolar disorder and who are also devout Christians. Their religion may comfort but it does not cure their illnesses.
Jesus gave him schizophrenia
Some say only 1% of the population will have schizophrenia. And others say 1 in 100. Which is more statistically accurate?
Metabolic mitochondrial dysfunction in the brain! Practice and understand the Brain Energy theory and put these people on low carb or Ketogenic diets. There is a lot of change on the horizon and if you’re a psychiatrist in this day and age and not recognizing the Brain body dysfunction theory you have nothing to say! Current treatments are abysmal
How much did this fella spend to reach a point when he can point out the most obvious things in the world?
Good vid, lower your bass levels
The follow up video is not good !!!!
Strange thumbnail.
Chris did NOT consent to you evaluating him publicly on your channel.
He consented to be interviewed by Mark, who is not a medical professional, just a caring and interested person who documents the lives of people he meets and who willingly come in to talk to him.
HIPPA HIPPA beta
You cant treat a addict using drugs with other drugs
They will become more addicted
Beacouse anti psychotic meds lower dopamine
And there may be interactions
I would focus on getting him totally sober before pumping him full of meds 😂🤮
Naltrexone and buprenorphine: “Am I a joke to you?”
Won't injection make you feel bad tho or what????
softwhite underbelly has some controversy. Someone died under their care.
I've watched a few of the interviews. The interviewees are very unwell. I wondered if they received any medical and / or psychological/psychiatric intervention 😪
The interviewer isn’t well mannered IMO. His statements are presumptive and project his own disassociation with suffering and pain that patients go through. I disliked him as soon as he told the patient ‘no abuse or anything crazy ‘ . Using the word ‘crazy ‘ with a patient who is suffering mental illness is considered judgemental , denigrating to the patients , amd demonstrates a lack of empathy and professionalism. But I’m speaking from CA after 42 years of therapy and psychiatric care for BPD traits and Bipolar likely type 2 (verbal it bursts and emotional instability)
9:06 MDMA LD50: 180mg/kg. So, for a 50kg person, LD50 is 9000 mg. Life is already scary. Let's not invent fears, ok?
Toxicity isn’t the only harm a drug can have, and it isn’t the only way that a drug can be lethal. That said, I do agree with you that MDMA is often demonized much more relative to drugs like alcohol, for no other reason than cultural acceptance. Arguably alcohol is a much more harmful drug than MDMA.
@@ChadbourneZitekCool story, bro. He wasn't talking about harm, he was talking about death.
