SchizoKitzo
США
Добавлен 16 ноя 2020
SchizoKitzo is project aimed at spreading awareness about psychotic disorders, specifically schizoaffective disorder. I talk about my experience with this condition, but also about the facts of various mental health topics through peer reviewed studies and other reliable sources.
A lot of what I talk about on this channel is uncomfortable, but SchizoKitzo is about making THAT which is uncomfortable, comfortable.
I felt that when I was diagnosed, I was alone. That even though 0.3% of the population has schizoaffective disorder (with another 2% making up schizophrenia and bipolar combined) I still felt isolated, even with the limited resources I DID have.
This channel WAS MADE to help people NOT feel alone and TO feel heard. It was made to give resources, but more importantly, insight into what having a serious psychotic disorder is really like.
So, will you join me in making the uncomfortable, comfortable? If so, subscribe to be a part of the journey.

So going to an actual lithium spring (with my dad) was the perfect day trip for my nerdy self. The spring this video is taken from is in North Carolina, but there are lithium springs all over the world. So j...
A Funny Thing that Happened in the Psych Ward | Tales from the Schiz

I ended up in a psychiatric hospital because of my schizoaffective disorder (bipolar type) in May of 2019. Lots of interesting things happened during the week I spent there, and this is one of those stories: a time that someone spun an elaborate tale (from the schiz) to skirt the rules. It’s not a long story, but it is a funny one. To me at least. Let me know if you agree! Enjoy the video :) AL...
