❤❤❤❤
No shame
You are not sick you are native American you have a third eye many see more than what's there
Only help in UK u mean. Its still stigmatized in many countries.
God love them people
Lost my mother and 2 of my 3 brothers to paranoid schizophrenia. I was the oldest child. My mother was 14 when I was born and she was a raging paranoid schizophrenic by the time she was 19. I’m 72 now. My remaining brother is finally maturing into an adult at 65 years old. My sister is chronically ill and severely depressed. I had a breakdown at 45 and was on disability for 20 years. I was on meds and in therapy every month, all that time. I weaned myself off all the meds about 4 years ago. I was the only one who was able to survive our childhood.
I'm so sorry you had to go through this trauma..life isn't fair sometimes..I'm glad you are doing ok now. You are a survivor. GOD BLESS.
I think you should try to find your dad
It’s probably the stigma, they don’t want to be called crazy, they don’t want to be tagged it, but depression is very dangerous, the person can commit suicide if is not treated
Gone boy gone get some of that freedom, , children are so free, get all that scrapes on your skin, haha
Where’s your dad?
It seems you’re giving one pace back to the past, to be able to go forward
Why did you want to go back to where was a child, maybe we’re some trauma in your infancy or adolescence
Just eat those delicious muppins and you’ll be alright, those moments with your mum are precious, don’t be too hard on yourself
She’s very happy to see, ever one can see that even though there’s so much hardship when you’re growing up, there’s a lots of love between your family member’s
Why putting leap stick in a man, so stupid, that’s why a lots of man are becoming gay
But I can see you’re taking too much drugs, stop if you can, things can catch up with also, take less
Having a lots of fun, that’s the way to bring on creativity, and creating smashing songs
Smashed it
What is going on now 2024? I care!
My mom is developing schizophrenia and this really helped me, thanks
Really cool bro , must have been so hard to do this . ❤
Thank you for sharing. My Mom suffered from mental illness as well.
Just a boy who loves his mum 🥺❤️ Much love from California this had me in tears such a amazing heart felt story.
Where are you now Jonny? You keep popping up on my front page.
The music makes this unwatchable, plus looking away from the camera, plus does social health care exist in NZ ? That way the mother would have been able to stabilise. The brother too, not many stay in long term anymore. Cannabis can be lethal in connection to psychosis, I’ve seen it happen. Yet he used it even though he has a genetic predisposition to it. FN stupid or something.
My brother had schizophrenia brought on my drug use ... sadly, he died last year. He's finally at peace now.
Hugs to you
You are so talented!! Go see the wonderful of this world, take care and document (please) that journey, look for the beautiful in this life, know some people and above all keep in touch with your mom, she loves you so much 😊
So very sorry to hear... I was also raised with a schitzophrenic mother and so was she with no help... Not when you are poor😭😭😭
😢❤
Mental, emotional and physical well being is at the core of the human experience which is also personally spiritual, and while each one of all has our own struggles and triumphs, it’s very helpful to hear about other people’s efforts at overcoming and healing. Good luck and god luck to each of us on our journeys. May the journeys be filled with peace and hope and resilience. Thank you for sharing your story.
Thank you for sharing your story❤️Ended up here, was again looking for relatable stories since my dad and two of my siblings have been diagnosed. I have lived my life with them..throughout our childhood years dad was very sick and not getting help. It left me feeling akward around everybody outside my family,since early on I realized my family is different from others and we are outsiders trying to hide a secret.. Does anyone else experience this? I feel like an 👽
Weird I found this today. My mum and both of my brothers had schizophrenia. I just found out this week my younger brother died from heart failure in his flat in January but he wasn't found until March and the council only found his son through Facebook to let him know on Monday. I hadn't seen my brother for 35 years, his choice not mine. We didn't have a fall out, always got on when we were together, I took care of him while he was growing up because mum wasn't able to. Mum had paranoid schizophrenia which made her look for all sorts of strange things she believed would cure her. Including having all her teeth taken out. My elder brother had delusions of grandeur and was fine with anyone who went along with his theories but was vile to anyone who didn't. He died from bowel cancer 4 years ago. I hadn't seen him for 25 years. So I am the only one left, which I am finding strange to get my head around at the moment. Thank you for being brave enough to share your story.
I'm happy you made money off those clothes. Goodwill don't deserve them.
Heartbreaking, please know you are not alone in dealing with mentally ill family members.😢
Where are you Jonny?? Seriously you good?
I lost my oldest son 2016 he was 21 he struggled with mental health for yrs. I had to tell his lil brother n I was there watching my son tell his brother good bye. That is a pain you never forget. I see my son struggle with same stuff.
You haven't put out any more videos from 3 years ago? I think you're brilliant! I believe your voice needs to be heard! In more than one way! Have you changed channels? I hope things are going well as well as your Mum! ✌🏼🤟
What’s happened to this guy, it’s like he’s disappeared..
You have mad editing and storytelling skills..
I’m just curious as to why your family members didn’t seek treatment, meds to manage their issues?
Hello are you okay this was three years ago
Avoid stress and weed for those predisposed. I’ve seen it first hand check your family history.
Where are you now ? Do you need help ??
I wish you the best. I will pray for you
As I was saying… this extremely hard to Digest… My oldest son was Robbed to Schizophrenia… we’ve lived through this for years, I realized his father was also, my younger son and I live through the disorganized nightmare that has plagued my older Son….Very disturbing
This is extremely tough to digest… my Son is Lost
I am grateful for this. Thank you.
At least your mom still loved you….hugged you. My mothers been mentally gone for about 15 years. Hasn’t ever called me to wish happy birthday, doesn’t even know her grandchildren. I think what makes it worse overall is the fact that she did love me once a lot, we had good laugh, I had a good childhood. God knows I wish I could just go back to when she was sane and herself. I’m reminded everyday seeing mothers all over giving their children affection, something I will never get again. I’ve always felt lost since, and hurt. But I also love my mother so much.
i need help. My brother has schizophrenia and is rejecting everyone. I know he will end up killing himself and his torment is driving me crazy. I love him and hate seeing him like this but his pride and ego is destroying him he does not want to seek help nor see anyone nor talk to anyone. How do i go about this
My brother was exactly the same bro. He passed away before I was able to learn the things you're asking. But the one thing I know about my brother now, is that he wasn't depressed or suicidal. He was stubborn. He just wanted to live his life the way he wanted. His passing was due to an asthma attacked which triggered a heart attack. My mother also has Schizophrenia. She's been in and out of the institution a number of times. She takes her medication and thats the only thing that gives her momentary peace. I'm sorry I cant help. I understand how hard it is to deal with. One thing I do to make life better, is try to enjoy the small moments when ever possible.
@@WheresJonny your like me. my whole life has been a disaster since birth. I suffer also bad with negative self thoughts and depression but God is healing me slowly. Yes my brother is very prideful and stubborn. He doesnt talk to any of us just walks by and does not acknowledge anyone. But so weird he is reallly active and very hands on always working on something. I have a gut feeling he will take his life. I know the gun he bought 5 years ago is not for protection but an easy way out
@@AbletonLiveTechs Before my brother passed, he was also a very hands on person. He liked to fix cars and anything mechanical. I regret not having more conversations with him about the things he liked to do. I wish I joked around with him more. I was young and forgot to see the person beyond his ailments. I forgot to just be his brother. Eventually he ignored me too. I guess he was tired of the same shitty conversations? Idk. Hang in there my dude. I still have depression but things get better. They really do. I listened to your music its soo good man. Do you have any goals around that?
@@WheresJonny yea and recently i noticed how important it is to love more. In the end we all wish we loved more since our family is all we have. stick with your mother and love her everyday like its the last. I made a mistake i should have followed thru and pursued my passion. I listened to others telling me to get a real job so i did and put this aside :/ . My suggestion for you and your mom is try to get closer to God. Read the word also search for a christian church that does deliverance :) or even check out testimonys on schizophrenia deliverance! I will pray for her and you. God loves you and will always be there for you
Would you be able to go to your doctor or hospital with your brother? They will assess him and prescribe anti psychotic medication which has improved so much. If your brother won’t go to a doctor you could contact his doctor and explain the situation. Your brother is extremely unwell and is at risk of suicide. If he is taking drugs or drinking the situation is even worse. My brother would relapse every so often as he stopped his daily medication so the local community nurse would visit him at home every 3 weeks to inject anti psychotic medication. My brother used to complain that the injection was painful as it was given in the buttock muscle for slow release. Many people with this horrible illness can work etc.
I’m finding this three years later because my brother just recently got diagnosed with schizophrenia and this just hits so deeply. Thank you for sharing.
