Why should you be denied euthanasia because you refused a recommended treatment? A lot of the treatments have awful side effects and are hard to live with. If you've tried all the other meds in that class why would you try another med in that class. I would never agree to ECT which can have terrible side effects which can be permanent. I don't think you ought to be denied over that.
As a psykiatrist in Denmark im glad for this lecture. I Can't thank you enough Our priminister wanted to open the discussion to dignified dying this year and referred to Belgium anf Netherlands as to be emulated. A puplic debate has started. I am now much more prepared to go into the fray of it. Thanks again
Amazing...thank you y god bless...I have Bipolar🤍❤🕊
We're all tainted. I can't say I've ever bet a truly sane, adjusted person.
As I teach my residents: "Normal" is just a person you don't know very well.
Wow I've learned more on this Dr's video than what i had learned on therapy sessions, i am definitely applying this way of communication with my son.
I think artists just feel more. If anyone saw the world through an artists eye they would all be on the borderline of madness and greatness
Bisggest problem is that you can get everyhting set up and then the patient wants to abandon it all and wants help to start over somewhere else, no longer will take medication and is hostile to even the closest family members who are willing to help- the area of trouble is the Law protects them from having to receive treatment but expects you to help them; and take care of them - It's and OXYMORON approach Make the Law so family can help and not just guardianship- that is overridden by the other laws. Long story but why should we have to fight to take care of family who if are chronically proven to have the illness = we get interference by nonsensical laws
If there was ever an example of creativity versus mental illness, there's nobody else as close as Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys, if you've ever read about him
This is why Wilhelm Reich is such an important intellectual. He called this horror out from within . He was jailed for his vision by these cruel clowns . The mechanistic reductionist dualistic mindset underpins all of this garbage and today the establishment is dealing with this pandemic in the same manner as the original eugenicists . Horrible! Thank you for this important work. I’m working on economic solutions for humankind doing what I can .
OCD might cause someone to keep practising the piano non stop and succeed piano playing to a level
For me creativity is the escape from mental illness.
Thank you very much for this video! It helped me create a content about this issue
You know about Benjamin Rush too right?
A much needed discussion we need to have. BTW as a person who gives a lot of presentations, your use of audio-visual aids is impressive (particularly for a presentation given in 2015).
Why is no one on either side of the euthanasia debate addressing the issue of suffering that could be prevented by providing better support for patients who are exhausted from the burden of excessive "self care" expectations and challenges of daily living for which they have insufficient resources (physical, emotional, cognitive or other circumstantial demands exceeding capacity)?The speaker mentions the dangers of over emphasizing autonomy re: euthanasia yet health professionals (especially mental health providers) routinely impose expectations of greater autonomy on over burdened ,burned out (& often isolated) patients and families through cruel accusations and criticism that patients are behaving irresponsibly or being unreasonably demanding if they ask for more support such as respite care ,extended recovery/rehabilitation care , or assistance with daily tasks that expend energy patients need to reserve for recovery specific activities like physical, occupational, and other therapies, rest and engagement in social, emotional and cognitively stimulating activities etc.
People who do not get help for their mental illnesses especially the more serious ones, should not have the privilege of owning a gun.
It’s a right, not a privilege
That's terrifying...
My 18 yr. old son was recently diagnosed with bipolar disorder 1 back in March 2020 when he went thorough his first psychosis atack. He was supposed to take medication by court order but but he doesn’t and he is going through a second psychosis attack that sims to be lasting longer. Do you have any colleges in Tucson Az that you personally know? Do you ever have conferences in Arizona?
Bravo!!!!!
So instead we should waste tax payer money on keeping people who want to end their suffering alive? These euthanasia opponents are illogical.
This should be the ultimate human right in any society that calls itself free. This is 2020. It should have been available in all western democracies long ago. Psychiatric patients should not be forced to live as life long guinea pigs for the pharmaceutical industry.
Please watch this video to the end, it is long, but perhaps the most helpful resource available. Covid-19 has escalated the urgency of much needed support of our loved ones struggling with mental health issues. Friends play a vital role in the wellness of those we love and care for. Many have lost their jobs, health benefits, which eliminates therapy options and perhaps much needed medication... and has forced isolation. This video has given me the help I need to support and understand a loved friend from slipping into that dark place and knowing they are deserving of love and are not alone... I feel very inadequate and mess up all of the time as I am dealing with anger which is not pleasant but as my brothers keeper, not an enabler, I can not abandon my friend in a time of extreme need... in a few days I will try again because it is hard now and we both need a little break... that is love, all I can do, but I have not reacted and understand this storm we are in is not intentional...Thank you for posting this, you have really helped me help my friend.
Well, I don’t see how it’s workable. I have a daughter who is 44, living on the streets for pat 5 years. She can’t live with me because she had her 6 kids taken away due to psychosis and they were given to me by the court. How would I get her to see that she needs treatment when she thinks she doesn’t? None of the above will work. I’ve tried it all for 5 years
The best I can do in this forum is to urge you to read my entire book: See: YouNeedHelpBook.com It's far more extensive in generating ideas that I can cover in a 1 hr lecture.
In my opinion worrying about what people are doing in Europe when there is so much needed help here with our dreadful Medicaid health system in the United States. most people who have mental illness end up losing their job and can't afford anything else but Medicaid. You can't even find a psychiatrist you have to go to a clinic and see a nurse practitioner they have bad attitudes and hate their job. We need to stop worrying about what everyone else in the world is doing and start worrying about our own people. Suicides in this country are higher than ever double then what they were in the 70s and 80s. It's pretty hard to convince a loved one to get help when nobody wants to help them. These clinics are overcrowded old dreary with a nurse practitioner thinking she's God . Even if you do end up going there you walk out without help in the 1st place especially if you have resistant treatment depression. Step one is to fix the health care system. If that can't happen I think we have a right to be euthanized what other choice do we have? That's why drug addiction is rampant and everyones overdosing . It's because they are self medicating and why is that? You can't find decent mental health care in this country. The people who can afford it really don't need it because if they did have a serious mental health condition they wouldn't be working and couldn't afford good insurance and the people who need it most aren't getting the help they need so they self Medicate.
amazing video
The uk should legalize assisted suicide its ur choice to do what u want to do with ur live if someone wanted to die they should be allowed to
I don't understand why people are against this like they can decide for others i personally have wanted euthanasia since 15 or 16 not because i'm sad or ill, just because i'm not interested to live in this world or other people lifes.i just wanna be alone and sleeping forever
gheivss If you read the book you’ll see why, unfortunately, the vast majority of people who could really use state of the art mental health treatment, do not think they need it. The orthopedics and dermatologist don’t have that problem.
traci germanozashvili Also, as someone who works “behind the doors” in Mental Health, I will tell you that there is a tremendous devotion of all varieties of mental health practitioners towards their patients in their work. We too suffer from inadequate resources, STIGMA, lack of parity of the mental health system, etc. Some of the most idealistic people, driven by a passion for social justice and care, go into the mental health professions. This is the lowest compensated sector of the healthcare community. These Doctors, nurses, and therapists, could be much better paid if they chose other specialties. But they didn’t. They chose to go into mental health care because of their devotion. I can’t speak for everyone, but the generalizations that you make about mental health care professionals, are the very opposite of the generalizations that I think are true about this sector of the healthcare community.
@@markkomrad6654 so you are saying that a nurse practitioner has the qualifications to be a doctor a psychiatrist actually? Maybe you didn't read exactly what I was saying so I will repeat it. People on Medicaid do not get psychiatrist to help them with their mental illnesses instead they are treated by a nurse practitioner. Do you truly feel a nurse has the SAME qualifications a psychiatrist has in treating serious mental illnesses? I'm not saying anything about how much you get paid I'm talking about people on Medicaid Hey can't find real doctors who are trained extensively in mental health instead we go to some clinic and get treated by a nurse practitioner next time take 5 minutes and read exactly what's being said I'm not generalizing anything I'm stating facts and the facts are at least in Europe these people are being treated by psychiatrist real doctors not nurses honestly what does how much the health care community get paid have anything to do with what I said? I'm not saying anything bad about psychiatrist I am talking about nurse practitioners and a very very bad health care system called Medicaid I never said that you don't have devotion you do just not to people on Medicaid LOL do you accept Medicaid in your practice? Case closed read a little bit closer care enough about what someone's talking about before you jump to conclusions
@@markkomrad6654 "I need help or death" Mark: "here, buy my book before you go.." what the fuck haha
He didn't mention that the 24 year old Belgian girl did end up going through with euthanasia two years after the video was made - it's shown at the very end of the film. Leaving out facts/misleading people doesn't help your debate position.
@@markkomrad6654 what's even more tragic is the crappy disgusting health care system we have in this country called Medicaid people who really really want to get help can't they get sent to some nurse practitioner instead of a real psychiatrist,,,,,,,,,,, opiate addiction because everyone is self medicating because they can't find a doctor to help them. Medicaid only pays doctors$5 a visit LOL. THIS is tragic at least the doctors in Belgium haVE the heart to euthanize these people, Americans treat their dogs better then their own people. IF dog is sick we take them to the doctor and IF IT can't get better we put him to sleep. Millions of people in this country can't even find a doctor they suffer in silence. I think the American health system is way more tragic and you canT blame the doctors for turning Medicaid patients away they all say it's not worth the $5 we get per visit at least everyone in those countries get this same health care and treatment unlike here if you're sick and can't work forget about getting any kind of QUALITY mental health treatment I think instead of worrying about Belgium we should be wearing about our own people
thank you for helping me with my debate
Thank u doc for making this Video.. so much Wonderful info.. my 24year old son who's schizoaffective , was diagnosed early 2016. He has been willing to receive mental health services until the beginning of this year .. he has been unwilling to receive mental help at the mental health clinic in the city . He's in and out if... I need help and I Don't need help .. he started smoking marijuana again after being sober for a year ,since last April and he's spiralled down slowly since then . Finally we have told him if he doesn't start seeking help , he can no longer live in the house . Finally agreed to see an independent psychologist only to change his mind last minute. He ended up going however, after we reminded him he cant stay in the home. But he has stopped taking his Abilify all together for about a month now and only taking Effexor. He's been very inconsistent since January, with him 70% of the tine off his meds . I am more often wanting to give up . But I'm trying to stay positive 😲 I wish there was a magic button to push😭😭😭 I have tried to not get depressed from this ..
@@leduyanh1010 Sorry to hear about your struggle, I can relate. I wish you and your brother well.
Dr. Komrad! you reminded me of movie " The Help", the moment when that nurse leaves in the final scene!, when you said " I am having too much fun, I am not coming back."
I’m only ten but my mom is suffering a lot from mental illness and my dad and I can’t make her seal help
Francis Fok I hope you’ll encourage your dad to get my book, which goes much deeper and is full of practical tips. YouNeedHelpBook.com
You can go to court to request judge to force her to get to a hospital to seek help. Its called involuntary commitment.
I hope you are well and that you, your mother, and your family get the right help.
Francis, I'm sorry to hear of your struggles. Stay strong. I wish the best for you and your mother.
Doc Komrad, I don't know if you will ever read this, but I want to thank you - for this informative video and the book which you wrote. You have given me some direction to follow to help my sister who is in great need of an evaluation, but is resistant.
@@markkomrad6654 Thank you. She lost her only son eleven months ago and shortly afterwards developed "evil spirit hallucinations". She suffers terribly on a daily basis. I hope I can convince her to see someone.
So many mentally ill are put in prisons rather than receive the medical help they need.
Using television shows / Hollywood stories as examples is completely unhelpful and not real world. Real world is quite the opposite - truth is there is very little help for families struggling to help a loved one with severe mental illness. Practitioners do not want to deal with difficult patients, drug them and get them out ASAP is the standard MO - maybe the very wealthy have more hope - but for the rest of us, since the Reagan administration shut down funding for state mental institutions, there is no where your loved one can stay for the amount of time needed to make any real progress. They are instead churned through the emergency and/or low care level system, often making their condition worse.
SO VERY TRUE! I think most people nowadays are very open minded about mental health I think the real problem is exactly like you said you're sick family member is probably out of work which means thIER on Medicaid which means it is impossible to find a psychiatrist in a private practice or even a clinic willing to help! Everywhere I live and trust me I tried and tried to find a doctor a great psychiatrist but Unfortunately it's impossible to even find a decent family physician. We only get tO see nurse practitioners where I live doctors want nothing to do with Medicaid and I don't blame them they only make like $5 a visit LOL that's all the government is willing to pay so we get nurses instead of doctors such a tragedy and so sad that's exactly why drug addiction self medication is an epidemic it's because people can't find decent health care! That is why overdoses in suicide is OUT of control in this country!
the people whos making big bucks is hospitals and drug companies. this country is corrupt. I thought America is a great country but when its comes to health system and mental ill problem, they dont care. its true from 1-4 has mental illness people. very sad indeed. my daughter been taking med since 2012 on and off since she's taking full time medication lately for one year, she got a site effect from her med. she hardly cant walk now and she's in pain and her body keeps moving she couldnt control it. the Practitioners didnt follow up with her. she got cheap insurance thats why. she stop taking it for six months now her own, she got attack again with delusion and PTSD. dont want to go hospital or get help or take medication again if she can help it. because she already truma from medication. please God help her.

Thank you for this excellent talk . Dealing with a daughter ...
See my book YouNeedHelpBook.com

I was told that people in low income situations are better off because they are forced to get help if they want monetary assistance...
RV Beginner Winnebago Adventurer '97 there are no such laws in the US that I am aware of, which mandate medical treatment as a precondition of social benefits for the poor-either financial or medical benefits. On the other hand, to get Social Security Disability (SSDI), you must have documentation from a treating physician to see if you qualify. And follow up reports every few years to see if you still qualify. However SSDI is not limited to the poor, it’s for anyone, no matter their income, if they have paid into the Social Security system by having withholdings from their paycheck for at least 5 quarters of work. SSDI benefits end at age 65.
Outline in description would be helpful for deaf friends. When there is reason there can be persuasion. Serious illnesses diminish reason. Power of family is to restore reason...with intent to get them help. Everyone has rights, but in family privileges given by adults... Taking care of your own health, taking medication, is a responsibility of an adult. Diminished reason............paying for apartments...don't do it unless you get help? Last resorts involuntary evaluations/treatment don't let them come home consider initiating a legal problem (?) not explained. no man can help another without helping them self, sometimes you might be part of the problem. ENABLING YOU HAVE TO GET THIS PERSON TO WANT TO GET HELP.. I couldn't reach the website but here is something youneedhelpbook.com/Overview.html
Thankyou for these highlights.
Drugs raise mood. Art raises spirit. I couldn't agree more. My artistic outlet was what was missing in healing my CPTSD. A huge hole has been filled and it is hard to keep art/life balance and not get obsessive about it lol.
Hi I'm currently doing a project on famous artists with mental illness, and to start my project I'm looking at the link between mental illness and creativity, I was wondering where I can find the study on 1,200,000 swedes which found writers were more likely to be Schizophrenic, Bipolar, Unipolar, have anxiety or substance abuse or suicide. Just because I'd like to read the article or where it was published so I can read into it a bit more. Thank you!
Here is a link to the paper and an abstract of it: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23063328 Here is a nice PRESI presentation about the data made, I believe, by the authors, but I'm not sure: prezi.com/q4qa5xk3mxy4/mental-illness-suicide-and-creativity-40-year-prospecti/ Hope this helps.

I have been trying to get my daughter mental help since fifteen years old, shes now 22 and has a child. she is 100% detatched, and has told many lies about me, and she moves from place to place blaming the last person. Just one hour professional evaluation, Her thinking is squewed. She acts like she will not do what I say. She has unhealthy relationships one after another. I was the only relative that supported her and she treats me as bad as it gets.How do you get her help?
Did you ever find an answer to your question?
I'm no expert, but I've learned from situations with friends. Contact NAMI, a national mental health organization. They have a lot of knowledge and can help refer you to resources. Check out this link for a 127 p. online book that offers some expert advice: www.nami.org/getattachment/Learn-More/Mental-Health-Conditions/Related-Conditions/Anosognosia/I_am_not_sick_excerpt.pdf It ain't no easy straightforward path, that's for sure, but it helps to learn from others who have been through it. And there are a lot of people who have been through it.
I am signed up for their family class. I do not know if NAMI offers it on youtube, if not they should...to reach more people...I think I offered to help them post my class...I know some things are confidential so that may be why they will refuse.
ruclips.net/video/uyCf6p4FChk/видео.html she looks interesting about this topic.
Mam you are mother so you better understand that life is a big challenge if relation are good it's our good luck but when it create trouble it's not feel good so as a human being we are blessed with two options one is God prayer, meditation, and second is medical help if both you take together it works more fast ....
Superb Talk. Everyone needs to hear this.
