My uncle had schizophrenia. While he was staying with my auntie, she came home one day to find her living room wall torn out. He decided she needed a fireplace. Another day, there was a dead bird in her kitchen which he insisted he was bringing back to life. The guy was wild. So loving and giving and creative. My poor auntie though. She really just never knew what she was walking in to.
Yeah I have a close friend with schizophrenia and he used to text me some crazy shit... I could always tell when he was off his meds or not on the right ones because he'd say weird things about our friends and we'd have to call his parents and be like yo he's having hallucinations and needs to go to the hospital. Sometimes we had to laugh or else we'd fall apart. It's really a ridiculously difficult disease.

Gerson I live with a schizophrenic. Trust me it can turn them into a horrible person when they’re in an episode. It’s becaus they get really scared and anxious. My sister thought I wanted to kill her so she would try to kill me first. But she sort of knows, it’s weird she never actually hurt me. But she walkways comes in with a tightened fist or a weapon and starts sayin scary shot but then she’ll go normal for a few seconds then go back to being horrible again. But it’s NOT her fault. I’m not saying that, but to blindly say that schizophrenia can’t turn u into a bad person.
I found this really interesting. My brother bless his heart is schizophrenic and one night when I was trying to talk to him on the phone about the soldiers performing military maneuvers outside his apartment… I spent like four hours on the phone with him trying to talk him down and then when I got off the phone with him I went outside to clear my head and the stars were moving around in the sky. It was as if his condition was contagious to me. It was really strange. This explains that I think
The stars are moving? Like we have mathematics to prove this And I have pointed at a group of four stars actually wiggling - to other people and like oh yeah hey that's a thing up there Not some idea, some random thing I saw when camping And the same person said that the stars were twinkling near my house Atmosphere, clouds No it doesn't.
My older brother has been diagnosed with bi polar schizophrenia since he was 5 (he’s 27 years old today) and let me tell you its a trip... I love him to death but just know life for people with this condition can be a living helllll. I love you bro
From someone who Is Bipolar I know this hell your brother deals with. But there is something that changed my life that I had to share with you. There is a company in Canada called TrueHope they created a special vitamin & mineral therapy for people with this disorder as well for schizophrenia an depression called Empower Plus. I used to be on many meds but this therapy got me off all that and i feel waaaaay better..that was over 15 years ago. My doctor was against it but when he saw how much it helped me he wrote in my chart i had a miraculous change. This therapy changed my life, I no longer just barely get through the day. I just had to tell you about this. I wish you and your bro the best.

I've had my brother in cuffs headed to a hospital for evaluation or in the car with me taking hom to Vanderbilt myself probably 25-50 times. I know this well. I put my life on hold for him but it's fucking worth it. Would take a bullet for him if need be. You and I have a similar situation that not many people live. Nobody understands mental illness until they truly live it. His experiences alone also led me to look at myself. Went to the doc last year once he got dialed in and was diagnosed with bipolar 2 last year.
I watched my very cool and normal friend go from normal to diagnosed schizophrenia after taking way too many hallucinogens too many times. Went from looking all Abercrombie to looking all homeless. But with help he became the same friend I knew before the disease. However, the unfortunate thing is he developed cancer very young and left us around 35 years old. RIP Jay. Always love you brother.
The same thing happened to my friend as well, one night he took shrooms and was never the same. Was diagnosed with schizophrenia and was completely different over night, he is since passed as well.
I had a paranoid schizophrenic aunt that asked me to get her high once I said no I didn't have any so I scraped my bowls and got some resin I smoked it with her then she kicked me out for smoking in the house true story
Smith probably, yeah, average like $10 a gram unless your getting some high grade. Which goes for anything, you get high steak you gotta pay the money. Should be relatively obvious. Was that ok?
My brother in law was a perfectly normal guy at 22. Went out one weekend and got wrecked on acid and it triggered his schizophrenia- had to go into the psych ward in the hospital for a couple weeks and he remains on heavy medication. Poor guy has never been the same since.
Acid mixed with people who already struggle with normal reality is a dangerous combo. We all know people that all it would take to put them over the edge is 3 grams of mushrooms
@@Might.B.Housey_ i had around 3.5-4g one time to try and get more visuals and had a bad trip where i was tweaking out in my head for 3ish hours. thankfully I'm fine after, but i could see how it could negatively impact someone. the whole experience made me want to just stick to weed
My dad had Schizophrenia and he was never serious, always laughing, he never worried or showered, he heard things on the roof and would laugh spontaneously, He was so smart but would talk for days about the same thing. My brother and I in Elementary copied our dad lol. Ya People were like what the hells going on with these weird kids lol. We loved him so much, he died in a motor vehicle accident and someone under the influence. At his funeral people would say, It is good he isnt suffering anymore. It hurt because I never seen him suffering. Actually that's not true, if he didnt show up at the Hospital, the police would take him to go get his needle once a month. He really disliked it but apparently it worked, hate to say it. Thank you for the video.
That's so nuts.. My father was a paranoid schizophrenic and everything that Ryan guy said I can relate to.. My dad LOVED smoking fuckin cigarettes, like just lived to smoke, like yeah a carton over 2 days type loved it.. He also had constantly paranoid thoughts even when he was medicated properly, used to say that someone knocked on his walls when he was trying to sleep, that he was going to be kidnapped, someone was looking for revenge over something he read about 20 years ago.. just sad, crazy stuff.. when I was young he called me at my mother's house and had gotten to a city 600kms away from his town and he couldn't find his shirt.. He didn't explain why he was there just kept asking me for his shirt.. I was about 10 yrs old.. It got worse for him over the last few years and he hung himself in his laundry last March.. I lived across the street from him, and I still couldn't help him in the end.. It's a pretty fucked up disease I can tell you that..

I worked in a county hospital in the 90’s as a Medical Assistant in the Geriatric Pshych ward and having a conversation with a schizophrenic person was an amazing experience.
To explain the cigarette thing: in Med class we learned Schizophrenia and smoking are highly correlated. This is probably because smoking causes Schiz but rather it is thought people with Schiz have low/dysfunctional acetylcholine ( a neurotransmitter in the brain). Nicotine in cigarettes is the exogenous version of acetylcholine and binds to its receptor. So it is thought that smoking in schizophrenia is a form of unconscious self-medication to counteract dysfunctional acetylcholine neurotransmitter functioning.
Very interesting that acetylcholine plays part in schizophrenia since deliriants that cause anticholinergic syndrome by cutting off acetylcholine to the cholinergic receptors in the brain cause frighteningly similar psychotic delirium states with visual and auditory hallucinations indistinguishable from reality (much like in schizophrenia)
What Joe is talking about is called “folio a deux” or shared insanity. If I remember correctly, a book I read quite a few years ago said that the delusions of a psychotic person can be taken on by a person who does not have psychosis if the two people are left together in isolation for long periods of time (e.g. they are in jail together). The person who does not have psychosis begins to lose his sense of reality when he gets cut off from outside sources of information or feedback from people who do or share in the delusion.
Bro... he always comes up with some crazy shit like that, or he's either read an article, or seen a documentary on whatever the guest is talking about. Lol
@@gatordontplaynoshit3332 yea cause its his podcast and I'm pretty sure he has an idea of what the guest are gonna talk about... why tf would he not do a lil research?
The term Joe was looking for is "folie a deux." It's a French term that means "madness shared by two." It's used to explain the contagious nature mental illness can have on people exposes to it
Correct but to be a little more precise, "Folie a Deux" i.e. madness of two, is specific to delusional disorder and doesn't fall under schizophrenia. Also the "contagiousness" that people usually talk about is specific to people who share a close relationship with the affected person. Not anyone who gets exposed. Good job!
It's both funny and touching...Man, serious mental diseases are such a tough, tough affliction, both for the one suffering through them and their families/friends.

There was a young guy in my town who was on the cusp of turning pro in skateboarding, but he also was heavily into selling acid. After he got on the radar of the cops and DEA, they went in to bust him. So instead of getting caught with the contraband, he ate a whole sheet of acid and it immediately fried his brain and put him on a permatrip. They never found the drugs, so he was let loose. He would walk around town with a backpack with half of a skateboard in it just talking and ranting about everything. I don't know what became of him, but it was a sad tale. It got me out of doing psychedelics ever again.
So you have simply spread a myth that is not even possible the proof is in every town people all day this same story exactly word for word. Proof also is that lsd CANNOT cause a permanent trip
This is a an urban myth and if it isn’t you’ve made an outright lie about it. Let me guess did your parents or older family tell you this cause every family around here I know has these near identical stories which if you were knowledgeable or an experienced drug user you would easily be able to tell it’s totally fake
@@justineadebisi8225 Yeah just like the "Johnny was walking with a sheet of acid in his pocket and it rained and washed into his skin. Ever since he's believed he's a glass of orange juice" Some people who have a tendency toward psychosis can experience a first break from using psychedelics though, so I'm sure there is some truth behind these many different rumors. Just look at herbert mullin. His LSD and cannabis use started him on a journey of paranoid psychosis that lead to him "sacrificing" 13 people to stop earthquakes
Not that homelessness causes schizophrenia, more like people with bad schizophrenia cant get jobs and without a family supporting them they become homeless
It's something crazy like over 50%. So sad. Without medication compliance which is hard to encourage since most are diagnosed with the paranoid sub type they aren't going to want to take something that they think is going to cause then harm or whatever reason. Wish I could help all of them. I talk to many and hear them out some have perspectives on the world that are profound. Many with profound intelligence in their own way.
My birth mother was schizophrenic but I was raised by my aunt and uncle. I studied psychiatry and psychology as soon as I could read. The research at the time suggested that not being exposed to her schizophrenic state exponentially lowered my chances of developing the same state.
Really? I’ve always theorized that it’s where all of my creativity comes from. Auditory schizo here, I’m almost a Jedi with controlling the voices/sounds/music/screaming without medication, but one never “fully” control it. Sometimes one or multiple voices scream questions at me to which I get startled loudly asking my wife or kids “wtf r u yelling at me for??” Or waking up screaming and running straight into a wall or dresser. But that’s mostly as bad as it gets, when I was younger an undiagnosed it was Hell…people loved being around me, which I didn’t really understand cuz I didn’t want to be around me lol but until I got help for it I self medicated for about a decade with alcohol sex and heroin/opiates and or cocaine. Stupid. Now I just let em scream and and carry on, and I just ignore the absoluteFUCKout of them. But I make art, clothing, music, jewelry, skateboard, surf, check a bit out on Instagram @xerolestrange

I care for my 47 year old brother. He is manic, paranoid schizophrenic. Every day is busy. I don't allow meds to lower the manic. The flip side of that is he is a zombie. He does take meds. That has to be adjusted often. Other than that. He is very healthy. Jogs 3 miles a day, works out, everyday. It can be so hard sometimes! But we push through and keep moving.
I had to come bk to this bc I live in Baltimore & now every time I go down Eastern Ave. I laugh to myself thinkn abt these stories. Its always good to look bk n laugh at crazy family situations that probably wasn't funny at the time but is hilarious now. We all hv those funny memories of our crazy relatives.
I took an absolutely massive dose of LSD at 20. I meant to take 3 hits , but the guy with it had it in a breath mint dropper, and he accidentally squirted a massive stream in my mouth. Who knows how much? 30 hits? More ? Less? I was tripping harder at 20 mins than at a peak of a 2 hit trip. I completely died, merged with all of existence, I was in a state of psychosis for several years afterward, and ill still never completely grasp reality, any little thing can fling me back into the void. My understanding of the nature of my exsistence is overwhelming, ignorance is bliss. Becareful , youll find what youre looking for, but you might not like it. Its beautiful, but so lonely.
My older bro suffers from this and he’s locked up, this illness is no joke people it’s very very heartbreaking to see a family member deal with it, their perception of reality is so different from ours
I developed acute schizophrenia when I was around 20 and this shit made me laugh so gosh damn hard. We’re not looking to hurt anybody we’re just a little tortured 🤪😂
My uncle is also paranoid schizophrenic and he smokes the exact same way and would smoke an entire carton if you let him. He was also mentally about 13 or so and I think that made it easier for us to get him to always take his meds. I miss him so much.
That hun part had me dyiiing. Hahaha. So did most of the story and Ryan's laugh was a huge part of my reason for crackin' up. Great dude. Great episode.
My grandfather is schizophrenic and he used to smoke a lot. He would short out his cigarettes at the same point every time and stack them really nicely in the big ceramic ashtrays. For decades. Then one day about 5 years ago he decided he didn’t want to smoke anymore and he quit. He’s done some interesting things also.
Damn near all skitzophrenics smoke cigarettes it’s scientifically proven that it helps them in some way I can’t recall how exactly but literally every skitzo friend or family member as well as my skitzo ass smokes like a chimney
*I went to high school with a guy that sold acid and was eating it all the time. My little brother was friends with his brother and about 5 years later he was GONE. Totally lost his mind from doing too much acid. It's a sad thing.*
This is a really good one. I pretty much haven’t stopped grinning and I’ve laughed out loud several times. And it’s NOT been a good day so that’s saying something! 😂
A pack is 20 cigs, he was smoking a carton in 3 days. A carton is 10 packs. So about 3.3 packs a day. That would be about 70 cigs a day. 70x7= 490 cigs a week. Lets round that up to 500 for easier math. 500x4= 2,000 cigs a month, or 24,000 cigs a year. 24,000 cigs a yearx10 years= 240,000 cigs in a ten year period. 3 packs a day is pretty common for old school heavy smokers. I've known some people who even smoked 4 packs a day. Long story short, Your number is way off lol.
I love this story, ive heard it a few times already just by algorithm and i dont think ive ever skipped it. Its so funny bc i have an uncle that this reminds me of, he is a character 💀
When Joe talks about thinking a car would come crashing down. I get thoughts like that, but they're always like "How to react to this event" kinda shit to keep me on my toes. It's a symptom of my anxiety that keeps me aware of potential what if scenarios. I find myself daydreaming about shit that may never happen, just to know how to react. It's like a survival instinct.
Exactly the same here bro, I've done it all my teenage life and early adulthood. It's just a symptom of general anxiety. I'll be riding a bus and outta nowhere I'd think "what should I do if this bus crashes?" it wouldn't make me nervous, just somewhat curious at this point. I find it remarkably interesting the things my subconscious just assumes.
Every time I walk home from the train station at night up the hill to my house after a shift at work I have to walk through a patch of land we call the "crags" and it's usually always pitch dark. My head's just conjuring up all sorts of scenarios of robbings and assaults... it's kinda like a preventative measure like you said to keep you on your toes. I would justify it entirely as a subconscious survival defence passed down through genetic instincts.
I know exactly what ur talking about. But I can’t describing stemming from anxiety. My perspective is whatever I need to do in life, I wanna have envisioned how that path would go down and to try to be prepared for signs so I don’t miss chances. But even then, I still never worry about missing the chances regardless.in a way, I feel like it lets me live in the moment and pick up details I might recall I other wise might have missed or just not experienced.
same during teenage years but ive become too mellow and easy going in my 20s to the point that nothing bothers me and if it happens it happens. on occasion i do test my improv skills tho to keep em sharp.
@@hatimelouaqour610 thats interesting mate as your insights and james's are like mine. Im curious though do you get like dreams in the past you recall just before or as certain events happen? like some sort of anxiety response maybe? as i grow up i wanna try understand better why my mind acts this way, maybe try and learn to better harness it as i feel the anxiety i feel is an advantage more then disadvantage.
The same thing happened to my cousin, he took some acid and it brought on his schizophrenia. I’ve read about that since that if you have the possibility of having schizophrenia and you take acid, I think it can even be one time, it can bring it out. At first he didn’t get medicated and it was pretty bad, talking to Lucifer and he knocked around his mom (my aunt), accused my brother (his cousin) of sleeping with his sister (who was also obviously his cousin) and then sucker punched my brother… sometimes he’d stop mid step and could stab there motionless for a really long time, one foot in the air… he finally got medicated and is very functional and fun to be around.
Coke and meth do it as well. Used to do a ball a day because I was selling it so it was basically free. Got a half ounce, didn’t sell any within an hour, so I snorted it all within8 hours and have never been the same since. If I’m sober or drinking, it isn’t issue, but If I smoke good weed or do too much blow it’s goes full gear.
Thank you so much for this information actually , my mom is a violent schizophrenic, I was considering doing acid , later in life , in years to come , I’ve never done it before ( just bc of the way it can make ur life make sense in some way ) . And now I’m glad I’m reading this so i know not to , especially in my case.
I can relate to this situation a lot . I had the occasional funny moments , when dealing with a friend's illness , but the waste of talent , which accompanied that illness , makes me quite sad . Around 20 years ago now I attended a drama school . We had a crazy bunch of characters , some who appeared normal turned out too be nuts , some people who seemed crazy , turned out too be quite wise underneath a layer of outward madness . One guy was wanted in Scotland for beating his ex up , although I never really got to the bottom of that particular story , he was a charming person , who upon closer inspection , had narsassistic traits . But in relation to your cousin , I do remember a lovely man called Warren in my year . He was funny , quirky and a little off the wall . He had done a lot of drugs in his life before attending this degree course , so he was a bit of an unknown quantity when it came to concentration on a play . Anyway , as the course progressed through it's first year into the second year , he started to act up . He would do press ups and sit ups in class , while someone else was up doing a scene . He would talk to himself at times , like we all do , only it wasn't an inner voice , it was voiced out loud . Pretty soon he became a liability , so it was obvious he would be removed from the school . Only , despite the situation of his bizarre behaviour being an issue , he kept turning up for classes . Only every day he turned up he looked worse and worse . Finally one day , he never showed up . It turned out he was wise to the hospital trying to section him , so he wasn't going back to his council flat , but sleeping by the station . Eventually the butterfly nets managed to capture him , in order that he be given a thorough assessment , so treatment could allow his mind to stabilize . Like your cousin , warren had such potential , yet the drug use either was the trigger for mental illness , which might never have never shown itself , or mental illness was inevitable. Sadly I never saw hm again . I've heard that he died , but have never been able to confirm it . He was a lovely guy , who's life was somehow compromised in some ways by drug use . So while drug use may appear a bit if fun , it's a hell of a lottery when it comes to the affect on your well being .
Drug use can not and does not make a person schizophrenic. You can get heroin dependency from heroin or stimulant psychosis from overdosing on stimulants, but you can't get OCD from weed or BPD from mushrooms.
LSD practically cured my depression. I was bipolar and I took LSD as a teenager a couple times. Never major doses, but I took them alone and just thought about life. Changed me forever.
@@johnnyparsnips7641 would this be a reason, for suddenly developing anti-social behavior? I'm 20 (dropped @ 19), and I feel like can't connect with people my own age anymore.
Happened to my best friend in high school. I watched him go crazy. We all dropped some extascy and ya he lost his marbles and was missing for days. Then ended up in some crazy house for almost half a year. Never been the same. He was a state champion wrestler and one of the most gifted over all athletes.
@@760savage8 It was. Back then those pills were mixed with all kinds of shit. The guy who sold them bought bags full and they were all different kinds so you were really gambling. For example some would be like bright yellow star shaped pill with Bart Simpson a head stamped on it. Who knows what’s in it lol. Some could be round and purple with no stamp. Varying thickness too. So if you took some one weekend chances are you’ll never see that specific pill again. Some have meth in it, some heroin, mescaline, etc etc. they all had mdma in them Mdma itself I didn’t see where I’m from until 2010ish. Before that you had skittles lol ex pills. Also everyone is different and react to shit different. My buddy had that deficiency somewhere in his brain and taking drugs that night brought it out. Same thing happened to my uncle 20 years ago except he took mushrooms He lives on the street now it’s sad. But ya not everyone can handle drugs.

People with schizophrenia have DMT in their pee. Do what you will with that info.
(drinks the DMT pee)
The stars are moving?
Like we have mathematics to prove this
And I have pointed at a group of four stars actually wiggling - to other people and like oh yeah hey that's a thing up there
Not some idea, some random thing I saw when camping
And the same person said that the stars were twinkling near my house
Atmosphere, clouds
No it doesn't.
@@lucacottle5692 that's fascinating if true. Has it been explained or seen, why that is?

My older brother has been diagnosed with bi polar schizophrenia since he was 5 (he’s 27 years old today) and let me tell you its a trip... I love him to death but just know life for people with this condition can be a living helllll. I love you bro
From someone who Is Bipolar I know this hell your brother deals with. But there is something that changed my life that I had to share with you. There is a company in Canada called TrueHope they created a special vitamin & mineral therapy for people with this disorder as well for schizophrenia an depression called Empower Plus. I used to be on many meds but this therapy got me off all that and i feel waaaaay better..that was over 15 years ago. My doctor was against it but when he saw how much it helped me he wrote in my chart i had a miraculous change. This therapy changed my life, I no longer just barely get through the day. I just had to tell you about this. I wish you and your bro the best.

I've had my brother in cuffs headed to a hospital for evaluation or in the car with me taking hom to Vanderbilt myself probably 25-50 times. I know this well. I put my life on hold for him but it's fucking worth it. Would take a bullet for him if need be. You and I have a similar situation that not many people live. Nobody understands mental illness until they truly live it. His experiences alone also led me to look at myself. Went to the doc last year once he got dialed in and was diagnosed with bipolar 2 last year.

I watched my very cool and normal friend go from normal to diagnosed schizophrenia after taking way too many hallucinogens too many times. Went from looking all Abercrombie to looking all homeless. But with help he became the same friend I knew before the disease. However, the unfortunate thing is he developed cancer very young and left us around 35 years old. RIP Jay. Always love you brother.
The same thing happened to my friend as well, one night he took shrooms and was never the same. Was diagnosed with schizophrenia and was completely different over night, he is since passed as well.
Same happened to my brother
Only happens on psychedelics if you were going to have it anyways. Gotta research man

My brother in law was a perfectly normal guy at 22. Went out one weekend and got wrecked on acid and it triggered his schizophrenia- had to go into the psych ward in the hospital for a couple weeks and he remains on heavy medication. Poor guy has never been the same since.

My brother and I in Elementary copied our dad lol. Ya People were like what the hells going on with these weird kids lol. We loved him so much, he died in a motor vehicle accident and someone under the influence. At his funeral people would say, It is good he isnt suffering anymore. It hurt because I never seen him suffering. Actually that's not true, if he didnt show up at the Hospital, the police would take him to go get his needle once a month.

This guy is an awesome storyteller. Could listen all day
That's so nuts.. My father was a paranoid schizophrenic and everything that Ryan guy said I can relate to.. My dad LOVED smoking fuckin cigarettes, like just lived to smoke, like yeah a carton over 2 days type loved it.. He also had constantly paranoid thoughts even when he was medicated properly, used to say that someone knocked on his walls when he was trying to sleep, that he was going to be kidnapped, someone was looking for revenge over something he read about 20 years ago.. just sad, crazy stuff.. when I was young he called me at my mother's house and had gotten to a city 600kms away from his town and he couldn't find his shirt.. He didn't explain why he was there just kept asking me for his shirt.. I was about 10 yrs old.. It got worse for him over the last few years and he hung himself in his laundry last March.. I lived across the street from him, and I still couldn't help him in the end.. It's a pretty fucked up disease I can tell you that..

I worked in a county hospital in the 90’s as a Medical Assistant in the Geriatric Pshych ward and having a conversation with a schizophrenic person was an amazing experience.
To explain the cigarette thing: in Med class we learned Schizophrenia and smoking are highly correlated. This is probably because smoking causes Schiz but rather it is thought people with Schiz have low/dysfunctional acetylcholine ( a neurotransmitter in the brain). Nicotine in cigarettes is the exogenous version of acetylcholine and binds to its receptor. So it is thought that smoking in schizophrenia is a form of unconscious self-medication to counteract dysfunctional acetylcholine neurotransmitter functioning.
Very interesting that acetylcholine plays part in schizophrenia since deliriants that cause anticholinergic syndrome by cutting off acetylcholine to the cholinergic receptors in the brain cause frighteningly similar psychotic delirium states with visual and auditory hallucinations indistinguishable from reality (much like in schizophrenia)
What Joe is talking about is called “folio a deux” or shared insanity. If I remember correctly, a book I read quite a few years ago said that the delusions of a psychotic person can be taken on by a person who does not have psychosis if the two people are left together in isolation for long periods of time (e.g. they are in jail together). The person who does not have psychosis begins to lose his sense of reality when he gets cut off from outside sources of information or feedback from people who do or share in the delusion.

The term Joe was looking for is "folie a deux." It's a French term that means "madness shared by two." It's used to explain the contagious nature mental illness can have on people exposes to it
Correct but to be a little more precise, "Folie a Deux" i.e. madness of two, is specific to delusional disorder and doesn't fall under schizophrenia. Also the "contagiousness" that people usually talk about is specific to people who share a close relationship with the affected person. Not anyone who gets exposed. Good job!

I've met too many Baltimorons tell me how they could have went to College for lacrosse.
There was a young guy in my town who was on the cusp of turning pro in skateboarding, but he also was heavily into selling acid. After he got on the radar of the cops and DEA, they went in to bust him. So instead of getting caught with the contraband, he ate a whole sheet of acid and it immediately fried his brain and put him on a permatrip. They never found the drugs, so he was let loose. He would walk around town with a backpack with half of a skateboard in it just talking and ranting about everything. I don't know what became of him, but it was a sad tale. It got me out of doing psychedelics ever again.
drug induced psychosis is a bitch
So you have simply spread a myth that is not even possible the proof is in every town people all day this same story exactly word for word. Proof also is that lsd CANNOT cause a permanent trip
This is a an urban myth and if it isn’t you’ve made an outright lie about it. Let me guess did your parents or older family tell you this cause every family around here I know has these near identical stories which if you were knowledgeable or an experienced drug user you would easily be able to tell it’s totally fake
@@justineadebisi8225 no it isn’t man I know people personally who have perma fried themselves, happens in every town. / city
@@justineadebisi8225 Yeah just like the "Johnny was walking with a sheet of acid in his pocket and it rained and washed into his skin. Ever since he's believed he's a glass of orange juice" Some people who have a tendency toward psychosis can experience a first break from using psychedelics though, so I'm sure there is some truth behind these many different rumors. Just look at herbert mullin. His LSD and cannabis use started him on a journey of paranoid psychosis that lead to him "sacrificing" 13 people to stop earthquakes

There's a huge correlation between homelessness and schizophrenia.
Not that homelessness causes schizophrenia, more like people with bad schizophrenia cant get jobs and without a family supporting them they become homeless
Tim R yes absolutely agree!
It's something crazy like over 50%. So sad. Without medication compliance which is hard to encourage since most are diagnosed with the paranoid sub type they aren't going to want to take something that they think is going to cause then harm or whatever reason. Wish I could help all of them. I talk to many and hear them out some have perspectives on the world that are profound. Many with profound intelligence in their own way.

I care for my 47 year old brother. He is manic, paranoid schizophrenic. Every day is busy. I don't allow meds to lower the manic. The flip side of that is he is a zombie. He does take meds. That has to be adjusted often. Other than that. He is very healthy. Jogs 3 miles a day, works out, everyday.

I took an absolutely massive dose of LSD at 20. I meant to take 3 hits , but the guy with it had it in a breath mint dropper, and he accidentally squirted a massive stream in my mouth. Who knows how much? 30 hits? More ? Less? I was tripping harder at 20 mins than at a peak of a 2 hit trip. I completely died, merged with all of existence, I was in a state of psychosis for several years afterward, and ill still never completely grasp reality, any little thing can fling me back into the void.

My grandfather is schizophrenic and he used to smoke a lot. He would short out his cigarettes at the same point every time and stack them really nicely in the big ceramic ashtrays. For decades. Then one day about 5 years ago he decided he didn’t want to smoke anymore and he quit. He’s done some interesting things also.
Damn near all skitzophrenics smoke cigarettes it’s scientifically proven that it helps them in some way I can’t recall how exactly but literally every skitzo friend or family member as well as my skitzo ass smokes like a chimney
*I went to high school with a guy that sold acid and was eating it all the time. My little brother was friends with his brother and about 5 years later he was GONE. Totally lost his mind from doing too much acid. It's a sad thing.*
This is a really good one. I pretty much haven’t stopped grinning and I’ve laughed out loud several times. And it’s NOT been a good day so that’s saying something! 😂
In ten years that dude would have smoked just over 25 thousand cigarettes.
A pack is 20 cigs, he was smoking a carton in 3 days. A carton is 10 packs. So about 3.3 packs a day. That would be about 70 cigs a day. 70x7= 490 cigs a week. Lets round that up to 500 for easier math. 500x4= 2,000 cigs a month, or 24,000 cigs a year. 24,000 cigs a yearx10 years= 240,000 cigs in a ten year period.
3 packs a day is pretty common for old school heavy smokers. I've known some people who even smoked 4 packs a day.

By far my favorite clip ever from this pod cast
11:26 Joe's concern is too real 😂
When Joe talks about thinking a car would come crashing down. I get thoughts like that, but they're always like "How to react to this event" kinda shit to keep me on my toes. It's a symptom of my anxiety that keeps me aware of potential what if scenarios.
I find myself daydreaming about shit that may never happen, just to know how to react. It's like a survival instinct.
Exactly the same here bro, I've done it all my teenage life and early adulthood. It's just a symptom of general anxiety. I'll be riding a bus and outta nowhere I'd think "what should I do if this bus crashes?" it wouldn't make me nervous, just somewhat curious at this point. I find it remarkably interesting the things my subconscious just assumes.
Every time I walk home from the train station at night up the hill to my house after a shift at work I have to walk through a patch of land we call the "crags" and it's usually always pitch dark. My head's just conjuring up all sorts of scenarios of robbings and assaults... it's kinda like a preventative measure like you said to keep you on your toes. I would justify it entirely as a subconscious survival defence passed down through genetic instincts.
I know exactly what ur talking about. But I can’t describing stemming from anxiety. My perspective is whatever I need to do in life, I wanna have envisioned how that path would go down and to try to be prepared for signs so I don’t miss chances. But even then, I still never worry about missing the chances regardless.in a way, I feel like it lets me live in the moment and pick up details I might recall I other wise might have missed or just not experienced.
same during teenage years but ive become too mellow and easy going in my 20s to the point that nothing bothers me and if it happens it happens. on occasion i do test my improv skills tho to keep em sharp.
@@hatimelouaqour610 thats interesting mate as your insights and james's are like mine. Im curious though do you get like dreams in the past you recall just before or as certain events happen? like some sort of anxiety response maybe? as i grow up i wanna try understand better why my mind acts this way, maybe try and learn to better harness it as i feel the anxiety i feel is an advantage more then disadvantage.
The same thing happened to my cousin, he took some acid and it brought on his schizophrenia. I’ve read about that since that if you have the possibility of having schizophrenia and you take acid, I think it can even be one time, it can bring it out. At first he didn’t get medicated and it was pretty bad, talking to Lucifer and he knocked around his mom (my aunt), accused my brother (his cousin) of sleeping with his sister (who was also obviously his cousin) and then sucker punched my brother… sometimes he’d stop mid step and could stab there motionless for a really long time, one foot in the air… he finally got medicated and is very functional and fun to be around.
Coke and meth do it as well. Used to do a ball a day because I was selling it so it was basically free. Got a half ounce, didn’t sell any within an hour, so I snorted it all within8 hours and have never been the same since. If I’m sober or drinking, it isn’t issue, but If I smoke good weed or do too much blow it’s goes full gear.
Thank you so much for this information actually , my mom is a violent schizophrenic, I was considering doing acid , later in life , in years to come , I’ve never done it before ( just bc of the way it can make ur life make sense in some way ) . And now I’m glad I’m reading this so i know not to , especially in my case.

I can relate to this situation a lot . I had the occasional funny moments , when dealing with a friend's illness , but the waste of talent , which accompanied that illness , makes me quite sad .
Around 20 years ago now I attended a drama school . We had a crazy bunch of characters , some who appeared normal turned out too be nuts , some people who seemed crazy , turned out too be quite wise underneath a layer of outward madness .
One guy was wanted in Scotland for beating his ex up , although I never really got to the bottom of that particular story , he was a charming person , who upon closer inspection , had narsassistic traits .
But in relation to your cousin , I do remember a lovely man called Warren in my year . He was funny , quirky and a little off the wall .
He had done a lot of drugs in his life before attending this degree course , so he was a bit of an unknown quantity when it came to concentration on a play .
Anyway , as the course progressed through it's first year into the second year , he started to act up . He would do press ups and sit ups in class , while someone else was up doing a scene . He would talk to himself at times , like we all do , only it wasn't an inner voice , it was voiced out loud .
Pretty soon he became a liability , so it was obvious he would be removed from the school . Only , despite the situation of his bizarre behaviour being an issue , he kept turning up for classes .
Only every day he turned up he looked worse and worse . Finally one day , he never showed up . It turned out he was wise to the hospital trying to section him , so he wasn't going back to his council flat , but sleeping by the station . Eventually the butterfly nets managed to capture him , in order that he be given a thorough assessment , so treatment could allow his mind to stabilize .
Like your cousin , warren had such potential , yet the drug use either was the trigger for mental illness , which might never have never shown itself , or mental illness was inevitable.
Sadly I never saw hm again . I've heard that he died , but have never been able to confirm it . He was a lovely guy , who's life was somehow compromised in some ways by drug use .
So while drug use may appear a bit if fun , it's a hell of a lottery when it comes to the affect on your well being .
Drug use can not and does not make a person schizophrenic. You can get heroin dependency from heroin or stimulant psychosis from overdosing on stimulants, but you can't get OCD from weed or BPD from mushrooms.
I come back to watch this every few months. Still as funny as the first time I heard it🤣
Acid and mushrooms I can see that, triggers something in your consciousness that you can't undo and it will change your life with no do overs....
@@johnnyparsnips7641 why is that?
Brain doesnt fully develop until you are 25
Johnny Parsnips so. fucking. relatable. i don’t regret it, but man if only i could’ve waited. my life is permanently changed.
LSD practically cured my depression. I was bipolar and I took LSD as a teenager a couple times. Never major doses, but I took them alone and just thought about life. Changed me forever.
@@johnnyparsnips7641 would this be a reason, for suddenly developing anti-social behavior? I'm 20 (dropped @ 19), and I feel like can't connect with people my own age anymore.
Happened to my best friend in high school. I watched him go crazy. We all dropped some extascy and ya he lost his marbles and was missing for days. Then ended up in some crazy house for almost half a year. Never been the same. He was a state champion wrestler and one of the most gifted over all athletes.
Definitely not real mdma then sheesh
@@760savage8 It was. Back then those pills were mixed with all kinds of shit.
The guy who sold them bought bags full and they were all different kinds so you were really gambling.
For example some would be like bright yellow star shaped pill with Bart Simpson a head stamped on it. Who knows what’s in it lol. Some could be round and purple with no stamp. Varying thickness too. So if you took some one weekend chances are you’ll never see that specific pill again. Some have meth in it, some heroin, mescaline, etc etc. they all had mdma in them
Mdma itself I didn’t see where I’m from until 2010ish. Before that you had skittles lol ex pills.
Also everyone is different and react to shit different. My buddy had that deficiency somewhere in his brain and taking drugs that night brought it out. Same thing happened to my uncle 20 years ago except he took mushrooms He lives on the street now it’s sad. But ya not everyone can handle drugs.
I’ve watched this like 30 times and laugh every time
Sickler's energy just makes me happy. If ya' all don't listen to his podcast the honeydew, you're missin' out.
Dude we need him back on that whole podcast was hilarious !
This is probably my favorite moment in Joes show, the part about the taxi makes me lose it every time.
