- We often have people express their uncertainty when it comes to their options for treating and managing schizophrenia. Of course, the first step is always to speak with your doctor about developing a treatment plan, but in this video we outline some of the potential treatment options you could discuss with your doctor. We also list some of the more psychosocial interventions which you can work on addressing with your doctor, as well as on your own.

You are such an excellent spokesperson for the condition that we share.
true
I have schizoaffective disorder. Because my form of psychosis is not the typical hallucinations, it took years and years for doctors to realize that's what I was having. No early intervention, no hospitalisation, no appropriate medication, even trials with mindfulness sessions that made my psychosis much worse. It was hell. I am glad one psychiatrist had an open mind and tried a certain medication with me, whereas other doctors were reluctant to even treat my severe depression because "you are so young, we do not want you to need so many pills, we do not want to stigmatize you". Yeah, I did not really want to need that either, but it also felt belittling, like my feelings and emotion were not valid enough to require medication.
My close friends and family are accepting and supportive, but they do not really understand being in my situation and I am glad for that, because I am glad that they never experienced anything like this. But it does feel kind of lonely, like I am the only "crazy" person on earth. So I really appreciative your videos!
if you don't mind me asking, what is different about your psychosis?
@@TTInfiniteGaming I absolutely do not mind. Many people experience hallucinations like voices or visual hallucinations. When I am in psychosis, I am sure that something bad und extremely dangerous is about to happen to me or my family. It is a danger I must always guard against. Everything in my surroundings seems weirdly different, and if I do Not keep my thoughts to myself, People Can use them against me because they have the Power over these thoughts then.
Those are pretty much the Main positive aspects. My medication works fairly well to keep them in Check, the negative symptoms are much more difficult to live with right now.
Hope I did Not ramble too much!
@@junimondify you're very brave. Hope the negative symptoms get better too
@@tashik8151 Wow, that is so nice of you to say! Especially because it feels so crippling most of the time and I tend to get the impression I am rather helpless.
@@junimondify no you did not ramble, thank you for elaborating it was very informative!
Spending money on a semester of art class is better then an hour of counseling. I found that it was money well spent on my wife who has this illness. Great presentation!
Yes! Art is so underrated in mental health! I think therapist would make so much more progress if they pushed art therapy as hard as they push fricken yoga.
I agree I feel so much better when I'm being creative, and I've done some of my best drawings when I was having a episode and usually don't recall doing it but it helps so much, I love any and all arts.
It really helps that we share the same condition.
Thank you for your platform. My mother has schizoaffective disorder. Its nice to see that my family is not alone. It is a tough illness, but an illness none the less. Please continue spreading the knowledge to remove the stigma.
Im schizophrenic. to lose it and be free from it well this is the alternative approach. drink at least 500mg of niacine,DIM(to reduce estrogen in the body) and tryptophan aka 5htp everyday trust me you will feel a tremendous change but it should go with fasting. Niacin, DIM and tryptophan are not meds but supplements so it doesnt have any side effects. You will experience red flush tho when drinking niacin like a sunburn or an allergy for like an hour but it's not dangerous and will disappear eventually. Schizophrenia is often linked to having too much estrogen in the hody so you need to lower it by drinking DIM. avoid meats, junkfood, and sugar and lose that weight, and don't go on yoyo dieting wherein you get thin, you get fat, you get thin again then you get fat again. it will worsen it. bottomline is don't be fat. durvey says that obsese people has a 56% higher chance of having Schizophrenia compared to vegan and healthy people. being fat or going on yoyo dieting will just benefit them cause you are giving out bad life force/energy/aura. stick into being thin.
just eat Vegetables and fruits. your body is a temple. You are what you eat. You gotta keep your mind powerful and your body free from temporary gratifications and pleasure. it may not sound related but trust me it is. you will feel the difference. avoid vices like smoking, drugs and alcohol it will worsen it as well. you need a good aura and positive thinking to remove schizophrenia. clean your home. seeing that it's a mess plus thinking your life is a mess will worsen schizophrenia.
just eat veggies and lose weight you'll feel the difference. you are what you eat. avoid meat and sugar like sodas, and junk food. your body is a temple and eventually in this holistic technique the voices will be limited or completely gone. do meditation and grounding/earthing everyday. this takes discipline and effort, it will not be gone overnight, you need to this for months or years to see results. download GAIA app then type schizophrenia, watch the videos there it helped me a lot. it has a 7 day trial period. what i did was i watched a bunch of videos in there then cancelled my subscription before it reached the 7th day. lol
A temporary remedy is hum a repetitive short irritating lyrics in your mind, a chorus of a popular song. it will block 70% of the voice that you hear. it will be hard the first two days but you'll get used to it on the 3rd onwards and will become a habit to block the voice, this voices this motherfuckers will hate it.
again niacin and tryptophan are very important, fasting or drinking only water and eating only vegetables is important and losing weight and maintaining it is important. this is an alternative approach than taking those mood relaxers and medications that will do nothing but to sedate the patients. thank you.
I love how well researched and varied your videos are! How you talk from personal eyperience but also do the research.
Thank you so much! 🌹This information is priceless. You're amazing!
Lauren, I look at all your videos, they are so well done and full of insight. Schizophrenia has had such a sad and tragic stigma, and seeing you and listening to you makes the illness something you can live with, and live well with. It has probably changed many, many peoples life, your education and just listening to you and seeing you.
If you have a bad day think about all the people and their families you have helped. You have made a difference in the world, you make the world a better place. Not many people do that. Greetings from Sweden. 🇸🇪
Great video presentation! It is completely in line with the course I'm taking. Thanks so very much for creating it. It really reinforces our lecture. I wish you the best in all your endeavors!!!
Thank you for your videos,you are helping some much. You go girl,you are such a strong person. Lots of love
Very informative. I thank God i discovered this channel. Mental health is a topic close to my heart
You are so professorial in your knowledge of, and explanation of schizophrenia and such disorders. I hope everyone on the planet has access to your channel, and that you continue to bring layman’s terms regarding this subject. What you’re doing is so beneficial for the public, and reduces the fear of the disease, as well as those afflicted with it. As a retired social worker, I look forward to as many of your posts as I can find. I am subscribed, of course?💕
In fact she is so great at talking about subject with so deep understanding and is so great in explaining it in Very easy manner; It is almost Impossible to accept that she is A PATIENT her self who had been Hospitalised several times !!! CAN EXPLAIN disease so explicitly!!! Hats 🎩 off to you mam !!! and Good luck !!!

Beautiful video. Totally agree with you
I’m a vocational counselor for a vocational rehabilitation program with Peckham, Inc. I watch a lot of your videos because I have many clients with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder and I want to be able to understand them better. I loved hearing you mention voc rehab!!!!! Yes, such an important aspect for adults with mental illness.
Hi Lauren-Great content. I love the intention with which you explain treatment options for those of us who get to take on this condition. Schizoaffective has certainly been a challenge in my adult life and one I had little knowledge or understanding with its’ onset in my early 20’s. Thank Goodness we have an opportunity here to really support one another and share our knowledge base as we all search for ways to live ‘full’ lives (as you say). We all have such varied backgrounds/experiences of what life is...but if you want your cup filled up more .....many times for me it started by humility and listening to outlets that really address growing points for a fuller life.

I like to congratulate you on this video. You are amazing and I am super impressed. I am a therpist and I often use most of what you recommended. You are amazing. Thank you for sharing this important I formation.
thank you so much, hello from Cusco , Peru, Latin America, I love your chanel You are amazing !
Amazing channel. You have great courage.
FYI. I am seeing commercials before the beginning of your videos. I am in the UK.
I'm in my first year of psychology and I'm using the holidays to catch up on learning, after finishing the material for schizophrenia I have found this video a really good addition and I always like hearing affected people talk about it rather than a textbook. Thank you and happy new year!
Very thorough video! I love that you included Social Prescribing as it seems like it could be very helpful - if easily misunderstood by some who have not experienced these types of illnesses before. Medication is, by far, not the only or best way to manage these types of illnesses. Even if used as a treatment option, other options should be explored concurrently.
This. It is scary to see how over-promoted medication is for these disorders... Terrifying for anyone not a part of the dominant social class (i.e. white men) whose symptoms are pathologized, then medicated, and then a new lifelong capitalist drug consumer is created.
@@muirgirl Agreed.
I have found sleeping with christals calms and soothes my hyper mood. Love you Lauren xxx all the best Davey Grace xxx
Beautiful
I got a shoutout! I'm a social worker on an ACT (Assertive Community Treatment) team in a rural area and I'm so glad you mentioned our modality of treatment! I actually recommend this channel to a lot of our folks with schizophrenia/schizoaffective disorder because of the way it's presented and it's a great way to fill the gap of peer support dramatically reduced during COVID.
If anyone would like to know more about ACT teams, feel free to shoot me a PM.
Do you actually think antipsychotics benefit people?
@@nihil8436 I've seen some genuinely save lives. I've also seen people get so physically and mentally ill on new APs that they say they'd rather die than keep taking them. The best part about my job is that, because we're able to see our clients daily (or even more frequently) and we have a psychiatrist specifically working with our team, we can make med changes super quickly.
So yes, I do think they can be helpful, but it's very, very hard sometimes to find the right one. And sometimes you never find the right one; sometimes you just find the best one out of the bunch and manage side effects to the greatest degree possible.
I have epilepsy. I have a medical implant, a VNS, that does give little shocks to my vagal nerve. It used to help my epilepsy. It still helps my depression, for a while, when it gets turned up.
Thank you for putting such amazingly helpful videos. My younger brother just got diagnosed with schizophrenia after a psychosis.

@@wilby2 what is DIM?
@@ayaboesono8185 DRINK THESE SUPPLEMENTS
The most important ones are Niacin, DIM, 5htp(tyrptophan), Ultimate 16 Probiotic or any probiotics, Gaba, Chromium Picolinate, Vitamin A(fish oil), B-Complex, C and E plus Glutathione.
if you still have a budget for it and you should then also buy these supplements Artemisin(Wormwood), Folate,TMG, NAC, DHEA, L-Theanine, Ashwaganda, and Lithium Orotate Supplements would help as well.
My son recently had his first episode. Was it your brother's first phsycodic episode?
God bless you Lauren. My son I suppose will take medication for life. You are the lighthouse for people with auditory hallucinations.
For life?, what did he do to deserve that?
This is the assignment he accepted before birth or it was thrust upon him.
Soldier person....take second opinion as well and also keep your son on low medication after better better through phsyciatrist help discuss with your phsyciatrist about loweung the dose slowly slowly then come off from medication after getting better slowly slowly....then see for how long can he live without medication after even low dose?..
@@aaymathebest4705
I will do this. Thank you.
Monumental video that must've taken a lot of effort to make. Well researched, very broad subject, eloquently and succinctly communicated all without dragging on or compromising on the content.
Your work does not go unappreciated and you should be extremely proud 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Great video!
I'm really enjoying your channel. Thank you.
I haven't even finished the video but you are absolutely glowing~
Thank you for this video! I hope you have a wonderful day, don't let the negative comments get to you too much, you are loved and appreciated
This explains some of the suggestions my therapists has given me.
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation is a really good alternative when other treatment doesn’t work. And TMS can benefit relief of many different symptoms, and mental illnesses, anxiety, depression, etc. I really recommend it especially if medication isn’t working for you. I haven’t heard many people talk of it on RUclips, and I haven’t heard of many people that have had TMS treatment for schizophrenia, but I am really interested on how it has worked for other people living with schizophrenia.
I read somewhere that in Europe, TMS is used a lot for schiz. Also, in Boston, a group of docs are perfecting the treatment, but they told me 5 years to be approved in US.
thank you so much fo this! xxxx
Thank you, excellent video!!
I work with multiple women who experience schizoaffective disorders, and are also Indigenous. I would love to see some research and information regarding how other cultures experience schizophrenia and their teachings around it, as I think that would be effective in reaching some of our clients.
Anyway, thanks again!
They were most likely diagnosed due to their natural indigenous spiritual beliefs, in psychiatry that is not allowed and quickly pathologised as mental illness.
@@nihil8436 not true... the DSM says anything that can be attributed to religion/culture doesn't automatically count as a symptom... that being said, doctors can be biased and uniformed, if not outright abusive and racist. still anyone can have schizophrenia
You can research evidence from UK because Caribbean(& possibly others) descendants have a disproportionate rate of schizophrenia, due to fragmented disassociated families. Also missing a parent is a factor.
Hi Amanda! There is a show called Undone on Amazon Prime that you might really enjoy. Do check it out 💜
Thank you
I have lived with schizoaffective disorder for 28 years and the best healer has been my faith. Medication, plenty of sleep, good nutrition, getting out in nature and limiting amount of stress has all helped but only since I became a Christian have I had true relief from my mental illness. Maybe you could do a video around faith and mental illness please as I think it would be useful for a lot of people.
Thanks for telling everything suzanne Alsop....
Are you off medication?
Yes I agree,I'm still on my meds but no where near as many, but since I've found my true path it has kept me from going off the deep end several times.. Thank you Jesus..
So are you healed?
Unfortunately religion/faith doesn’t help everyone, what they need is medication period.
Thanks
Hello Lauren, thank you so much for taking the time to make these videos. My brother has been battling Schizophrenia for many years, and your videos really help understand what he is going through and how to help him. Unfortunately, he has been unstable for a very long time. Hey battles many symptoms, but one of his most common symptoms is hearing voices. I wanted to know if is it common for people with this illness to actually verbally respond to the the voices. In my brothers situation, you can not have a conversation with him without him responding to the voices.
Sorry that your bro has to go through this. You're not alone. I Hope this new year brings only good and positive things to every single one of you!
Does your brother experience premonitions when he's off his meds?
Hi Kala, my mom and sister have the same symptoms of hearing voices. They both respond to the voices when they are not doing well.
Yes..the voices is very disturbing...sometimes when not in agood health my son answer it..but then he asked me, do you hear it mom?
Hey! Great channel. What is your view on the peer support specialist model?
Thanks!
Thank you for your support!
I freakin love your hair!!!🤩
Thank you for your continued contribution. As always, honest, insightful and so, so helpful. Thank you, thank you
@S W I prefer to take "religion" away from the category of "things that can be prescribed" and into the category of "things that should be a personal choice". Regarding meds, I'll tell you this: we are all made of the same stuff as the universe is made of that came from the big bang, and the molecules in your right hand have come from the opposite side of the universe than molecules from your left hand. Matter and anti-matter fluctuate, turning into light then back into matter and all plant/life/inanimate systems in the universe (including in just our GALAXY, which has 300 BILLION stars-- with 2 TRILLION galaxies in total... you want to do the math of how small we are?) are actually part of the same system, which also means chemical. Food is also temporary, so is water. Plants that use the photons of a certain wavelength also use that light temporarily. I'm sorry, but in the realm of reason and practicality, your demon theory falls into a highly personal belief; not a practical one. There are many things to fix in medicine and pharma (no question) but progress takes time and there are people researching constantly. Talk about real angels eh :P Good luck with your search.
Also, may I add, I've never smoked a cigarette, let alone have done any kind of "street drug". Nice try ;)
@S W Your liver, your kidneys, all of them serve to function that way. Sugar puts tons of pressure on the pancreas. Some medication put nothing on your liver and everything on your kidneys (if you've ever taken over the counter painkillers, some of them affect kidneys and that's what you're actually doing as well). If you ever drank wine, if you ever had fatty foods.. need we go on?
Regarding the spectrum of meds, I do not disagree that nearly all medications have down sides, but that's with literally almost everything and it depends on the medication/tool. Medications for anxiety for example are often used to reduce the physiological panic loops induced by what should be non-threatening stimuli so that where you would normally have a panic attack, it might close or inhibit some of the synapses and feedback loops in the central nervous system so that you can practice embracing your fears without crippling symptoms - and over time, the feedback loop changes as your brain recalibrates, so that eventually when you cease, you would have learned new mechanisms. With certain medications or with lesser understood conditions, medications are just one of many tools used to maintain balance.
You always weigh the risks on your body against the benefits, and that varies from person to person; the only one who can give sound advice is a medical professional who works with said person. Each person’s condition will vary.. which brings us to the next point:
Why assume why people hear things? First, not all people diagnosed with schizophrenia have such a symptom. Second, human beings do not “hear” with the ears; we do hear sound but we really understand it and interpret sound with our brains. Our ears are simply receptacles; it is your brain that interprets what we see/hear and also *if* we see/hear. Our bodies are intricately connected to a central nervous system, exchanges of calcium and potassium that travel through myelin. So, if you have ever had a dream in your life, it is exactly that- it’s not real but it feels real. Now imagine that while awake: that’s still just your brain, not a demon. If you imagine the brain as a computer with a billion wires, where 2 wires are crossed (for example sound wire and vision wire), that's all it is. If we take into account that all minds in the world are different and that each person experiences some things differently from the next by default (not including positive symptoms) that has nothing to do with demons and neither does this :) It's a physiological condition. Just because we don't understand something, doesn't mean we automatically must attribute it to something supernatural. By the same token, UFO doesn't mean "extra-terrestrial". UFO means unidentified flying object; i.e. it could be a bird, it could be a plane, or it could be superman.
That assumption is just as dangerous as assuming that I have a condition, or that I hear voices. Even if I was diagnosed with schizophrenia (which I haven't been/am not), not all people who have been diagnosed actually hear voices or experience positive symptoms.
Take care of yourself and be well my friend. I appreciate the concern, but we gotta take care of ourselves before others : )
I really wish there were more treatment options but very often the only choice are these highly damaging neuroleptic drugs which basically act as major tranquillizers. I’m more interested in the soteria project and the open dialogue approach they have trialed in West Cork in Ireland under Dr Pat Bracken and elsewhere in the world. These approaches work with the individual with minimal use of medication alongside the support of friends and family. I think it’s sad we are consigned to these meds very often for a lifetime. It shouldn’t be this way. Have a Merry Christmas Lauren and Rob, from Cork in Ireland. 🎄
And i think many people who doesnt taky the meds are very optimistic about them.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I'm not convinced that the Western way of treating schizophrenia is.... helpful, in any real way. Going through the initial break, helping you heal, and then regaining functionality. I haven't heard of the healing modality in which you speak, but I will give a deep look into it. I've gotten into orthomolecular therapy, the keto diet, and shamanistic healing, amongst others that I can't think of right now. Blessings.
@@PatternedExtensions Are you suffered from sczophernia?
@@aaymathebest4705 Yes, hi aayma. I was diagnosed with schizoeffective disorder when I was 21. I’m now 34, and successfully getting off meds, behaving as a neuro-typical, and living a happy and meaningful life. Some things take time, but there is no race to the end. :)
@@PatternedExtensions can you explain please how did you come off from medication and what did you do to come off from anti-phsycotis drugs?
Thank u
My Son is newly diagnosed
I thank you and appreciate you and your video. I love you and I believe in you. I am a mother of an autistic young adult and they are assuming this as a new diagnosis..unfortunately we have be one temporarily homeless and now being stigmatized and a bit prejudice. They have had my son for over a month in the emr and have not placed him nor diagnosed him but medicating him. I am so çonfused and worried yet being string..I have guardianship but being kept out of treatment options etc. Please if they have any info to help make a video on legal decisions and or treatment plans. I miss my son and love him and he's gotten more depressed since the hispital
Autistic people shouldn't be medicated, you need to give him an environment according to his needs. It's disgusting for you nt people to have us autistic people drugged up with neurotoxines just because we think differently and give a shit about your social norms! Let him do his own thing so he may become so. like Einstein, Gates, Musk and so on. We will never be like you! I hope you understand some day.
I have seen an Asperger lady misdiagnosed and medicated into oblivion, she'll never be able to walk again. Do you want that for your son? Good, go ahead. You sure know what you're doing.
He isn't disabled because of his autism. His environment disables him and no drug will fix that problem.
Thank
I discovered my anti epileptic drug i am on has increased anxiety and has triggered uncontrollable psychosis events. In which my parents thought it was my condition, when really it was the medication.
Same!
Go on lower dose then after getting phsyciatrist help try to come off from medication slowly slowly through positive hell and after good diet supplements....
@@aaymathebest4705 I have done that
Thanks for sharing this. I have epilepsy, too.
I have frustrating memory issues and my neurolost actually said that this is normal after brain surgery. I wish they'd told me that before I let them do it.
@@orionm4254 what was the result?can you share your experience please?
So sorry that people have to deal with this illness
I would be interested in what your thoughts on Dr Chris Palmer's discovery of how diet (specifically ketogenic or ketovore or maybe even carnivore) affected a patient of his who, when he went on the diet the voices he had heard all of his life went away, along with his depression. I wish more doctors would study diet in relation to mental illnesses.
So much hope for SEP-363856 from Sunovian, If the FDA approved it for emergency use, why can't docs prescribe it now? My son is deteriorating every year.
I'm from sunny England I lov want to exercise but my medication slows me down and make me sleepy in the morning and night, because when I reduced my meds to nothing. I can get up early crack at dawn have something to eat, exercise have a shower and get on with my day. Meet family and friends clean up, cook healthy food and 1 or 2 takeaway a month. You speach is great not slowed down not like mine
Thank you, your videos are always so helpful. I have also found that complementary therapies like herbal tinctures and ayurvedic therapies etc. have helped me feel more robust with my schizophrenia, I have been taking herbal remedies for a year and have reduced my antipsychotic medication dosage.
Which herbal treatments do you take? I have bipolar 1 and I take lemon balm, ashwaghanda, 5HTP, L Theanine, etc.
@@BeingBetterhi,what is 5HTO,lemon balm,THEANINE etc....
Su-yin Meyer....which AYURVEDIC thearpies are helping..
@@aaymathebest4705 They are herbs. Do some research online. I have a youtube channel too that tells about them.
@@BeingBetter thanks sister
Do you have a support group available ?!
My list of tools is varied...Diet, complete with Omegas, plently of protein and minimal fast food, Neurofeedback(non-LENS), Profrontal, walks in nature, volunteering, Classical and Smooth Jazz listening at moderate volumes, pets or taking others pets for walks(with the owners permission of course), treating my MTHFR, 7-8 hrs of proper sleep, good fun sex weekly?, no rec. drugs, miminal alcohol(less than a six pack a week or three glasses of wine weekly) these things are a lot of work but have made this 55y a lot less dependent on meds and bi-monthly/monthly visits to the P.Doc, T.Doc and Social Worker since I was dx in 1992.
here are some of the things I'm doing and found improvement; I detoxed my penial and glial gland I think by avoiding fluoride and chlorine completely and using only the recommended dose of boron, but ask a doctor do research, I added mineral water and trace minerals better nutritional and vitamin content from food started the keto diet for weight loss cause look good to feel better stay hydrated and actually I take headache meds recommended dose for headaches and noticed a bit of improvement from that cured my candida by stopping sugar intake it helped me a great deal, less pain. sleeping well and getting my heart rate up twice a day through exercise and healthy words right when I'm having sad words turn it around sometimes. sticking to a good routine is sometimes a great idea... self-acceptance is great, affirmation thoughts and love words for no reasons helps me too

Question: how would you suggest that we help our son who is 30 and refuses to take or stay on his meds? He had ability first. Wouldn’t stay on it. Took them all up in less than two weeks Then Zoloft and Risperdal. Would not continue. Mostly because he will not continue to see the actual psychiatrist.
Hi Lauren, great vid :) I was wondering what you thought of Robert Whitaker’s critique of antipsychotics and his view that they actually worsen outcomes in the long run? Thanks!
I don't think it's just his view, it's been clearly demonstrated.
@@nihil8436 the evidence is certainly compelling and cannot be dismissed lightly, though I would still be cautious about saying it has been categorically demonstrated. You can interpret the evidence in different ways. With some of the studies there was no proper control over who stopped antipsychotics, it was down to the patient and their doctor, so you could just say that those that didn’t need antipsychotics did not take them (hardly a shocking revelation). Also, even in studies with a control group, the comparison was between maintenance and mainly *low* dosage, not complete discontinuation. So, while I agree that the evidence means we should certainly be wary of antipsychotics, I wouldn’t go as far to say it’s been proven that the harms always outweigh the benefits. Just as they are a nightmare for many, they are also lifesavers for some.
I’m glad I never had to take medication. I ignored the hallucinations and delusions even if it was true and they lost their control over me.
Do you mind if I ask you how long you had them for?
The next step after "out of control" is jail. Probability is thats where you are now or you've made no progress with your situation. Yes, all this is my speculation. But most mental health sufferers usually have or have had substance issues. So I wanna know what your particular issue is with medication?
@@Isa-tw1ly About 4 years.
@@Da_Freak I retired after working 30 years with the Airlines. Before that I had an honorable discharge from the Army which is very surprising since all my friends were demoted and had a dishonorable discharge from drug abuse. I didn’t tell anyone until after I retired from the Airlines because I didn’t know what it was when I joined the Army and I had stopped speaking gibberish to people by that time. I thought it would come back but it never did because I just didn’t believe in it so that it lost its power over me. Great question.
Is it true? how it is possible for you plz reply
Very well done. You are glowing darling ☀️
I do horses. It helps a lot.
When new video is coming about your medication and about your health?
What are your thoughts on taking b3 as an alternative to antipsychotics? I've been reading on this and seem to have helped some people. Have you tried this?
Running into dead end with my mum would try anything to help her but want to be properly informed.
You can question all vitamin bs, b12 deficite is dangerous, too. (And it takes a year to refill.) You can stabelize the gut biome with probiotics, help the liver with alpha lipoid acid and strengthen the neurons with omega 3. And go for walks often. That is what my research results are.
This was so helpful, thank you for all you do! Social prescribing sounds fantastic, I wish the US would explore that.
Hi Lauren
Did you ever experience a psychic premonition before?
Listening to your videos has helped understand my symptoms and discover I have schizoaffective as well though I'm stuck in almost a constant manic phase
Hi Lauren is it safe to be taking the injection antipsychotic while pregnant.
It isn't
My daughter has been battling what eventually was diagnosed as schizoaffective for 12 years now since she was 17 and nothing has worked for even a year. She might make it for 10 months, then relapses again to needing to start over. I despair of her ever having a life being on her own. I haven't been able to see or visit her for a year and will for the first time on Monday, the day after Easter. A month ago they were looking at moving her into a group home and then she has become paranoid and delusional.
How did it go?
@@hobolove2468 The visit was scheduled for Monday, I was notified by email on last Saturday that it was cancelled due to her "unsafe" behavior, whatever that was. She has not seen or had a visit with any loved one in a year and I'm the only one close enough to visit at any time. Plus, she has always been a big hugger and has had no physical contact with a loved one in all that time. I'm 68 and I worry that if anything were to happen to me before we get to see one another again it would be even more devastating for her that she never got to see me even one last time with that cancelled visit.
Im schizophrenic. to lose it and be free from it well this is the alternative approach. drink at least 500mg of niacine,DIM(to reduce estrogen in the body) and tryptophan aka 5htp everyday trust me you will feel a tremendous change but it should go with fasting. Niacin, DIM and tryptophan are not meds but supplements so it doesnt have any side effects. You will experience red flush tho when drinking niacin like a sunburn or an allergy for like an hour but it's not dangerous and will disappear eventually. Schizophrenia is often linked to having too much estrogen in the hody so you need to lower it by drinking DIM. avoid meats, junkfood, and sugar and lose that weight, and don't go on yoyo dieting wherein you get thin, you get fat, you get thin again then you get fat again. it will worsen it. bottomline is don't be fat. durvey says that obsese people has a 56% higher chance of having Schizophrenia compared to vegan and healthy people. being fat or going on yoyo dieting will just benefit them cause you are giving out bad life force/energy/aura. stick into being thin.
just eat Vegetables and fruits. your body is a temple. You are what you eat. You gotta keep your mind powerful and your body free from temporary gratifications and pleasure. it may not sound related but trust me it is. you will feel the difference. avoid vices like smoking, drugs and alcohol it will worsen it as well. you need a good aura and positive thinking to remove schizophrenia. clean your home. seeing that it's a mess plus thinking your life is a mess will worsen schizophrenia.
just eat veggies and lose weight you'll feel the difference. you are what you eat. avoid meat and sugar like sodas, and junk food. your body is a temple and eventually in this holistic technique the voices will be limited or completely gone. do meditation and grounding/earthing everyday. this takes discipline and effort, it will not be gone overnight, you need to this for months or years to see results. download GAIA app then type schizophrenia, watch the videos there it helped me a lot. it has a 7 day trial period. what i did was i watched a bunch of videos in there then cancelled my subscription before it reached the 7th day. lol
A temporary remedy is hum a repetitive short irritating lyrics in your mind, a chorus of a popular song. it will block 70% of the voice that you hear. it will be hard the first two days but you'll get used to it on the 3rd onwards and will become a habit to block the voice, this voices this motherfuckers will hate it.
again niacin and tryptophan are very important, fasting or drinking only water and eating only vegetables is important and losing weight and maintaining it is important. this is an alternative approach than taking those mood relaxers and medications that will do nothing but to sedate the patients. thank you.
Hello Lauren you are great.
I am schizophrenic. I am 26 year old and I am admit in hospital for 3 rd time in October 2019 and till today I get medicine, ( trihexiphynydil, and respiredon both are 2 Mg tablets) but now I get tired to get this because it has side-effects (Constipation is most) like mood off, don't get wake up early, not want to do excersize weight gain (before my weight is 72 and now I am at 95) please help me.

Hello friend I am also suffering from schizophrenia since 2021 August . Don't leave medicines
Does anyone know if electric magnetic (not ect) treatment works on depression and if it affects memory negatively like ect can?
EFT doesn't typically trigger memory loss. You might get an upset stomach or blood pressure issues at the most. Its not the same as ect in which it does not trigger seizures to cause a reboot because it does not shock you, instead your bodies fluids are shifted around through use of a magnetic field.
Thanks

A question. I am a therapist and working on finding group homes that houses persons with chronic mental illness . I would like to hold telehealth groups therapy for them so I can encourage participation in some of the treatment options you recommended and to provide them with info that will assist i their long -term stability in terms of Housing and health. What is your take on this concept? Thanks again and I look forward to your response.
How do you know that the medication is doing its job? My partner takes medication (chlmazapan) for her anxiety but she still has severe anxiety.
It doesn't. They create addiction in the brain, work for a few weeks/months, the brain adapts to it. When you want to go off of them, the symptoms are worse. This isn't medication, those are drugs, that's why they rather create the illness and why people with sza/sz have to switch drugs after a certain amount of time. There's just false hope in the drugs and a whole industry behind it.
Find out, why he is afraid in certain situations, sometimes it's rooted in the childhood.
Can you please do a video on how you avoid weight gain when taking antipsychotic meds?
she has this kind of video, I think it’s called “weight gain on antipsychotic medication”
She already has! Here is a link: ruclips.net/video/pBqzbEjkgyA/видео.html
@@RandHKIS thank you!!
forget it. she never revealed even medication she is taking, not to mention anything else.
@@Burevestnik9M730 I am not sure it is really safe to mention medication that specifically you use in such case as schizophrenia (or any mental illness)
i am in mental hospital for 5 months by now. i got 3 different medication,right now i am getting clozapine. They told me yet it needs 6 weeks in order to work in my body.
I am worried on meg legs and brain..
i feel numbness, tingling feeling in my body and the doctor do not know why i have this they told me they will send me neurologist, in order to solve this issue.
Also i feel like the nurses spy on me, i am literally afraid to stay in the hospital already...
What is your opinion about my leg pain and brain ? Can it be from schizoprhenia ?
I feel like someone put a curse on me, in order to make me crazy ... or i feel like a demon possessed my body....
Greetings,
viv
She doesn't seem to reply here, but seems very healthy and her descriptions of her activities also sound healthy, - where is her "Schz"? And why don't some get any of all the treatments mentioned here, but mostly just the antipsychotic and some activiy but no real vital support or help for anxiety, practical counselling and assistenceI have met some who really have the illness, and some who seem normal , well and managing. ?
I have alots of problems right now
Heart disease, burnout, bipolar disorder, insomnia, schizophrenia, bad-luck disease etc.
I'm suffering from it from my childhood but i was that much unlucky until my sister born.😂😂😂
And now i have a more problem that is related to my neighbour girl i dont know why but its all why happening my brain and her voice sometime i wanted that she will behave with me like old days. Live her life like old days I'm some time miss old one's.
Some antipsychotics are administered quarterly.
There will be even 6 months LAI, it will make patient more "adherent"...
I honestly don't notice any difference on or off the medication, but i have lost a leg and have a bad heart so people are probably going a bit easier around me
yeah they had all them social prescribing things with me Lauren, I went on some of them, they where ok when they had something for me to do but i stood about a lot most times

Hi..My 41 yrs old sister is recently diagnosed with schizophrenia just 7 days ago. Doctor has prescribed sleeping pills along with antipsychotic since she has not been sleeping properly from many days. My question is - as soon as symptoms get faded , will she get proper sleep without sleeping pills ? Or proper sleep and schizophrenia symptoms are not interrelated ?
I had some questions do i search on internet or not i wanna know but because of some peoples interference I'm not being able to search it.

Which supplements are good for Schizophrenia? Do u have any experience with ashwaganda? Can it be taken together with the regular medicine? Thanks
Fitness, nutrition (sugar and dairy free diet), rest are part of an Orthomolecular Therapy philosophy. Art is a natural extension but even CMHA will give you art classes (while force feeding you sugar . . . Lol)
Best to eliminate wheat/gluten, dairy/casein, sugar and processed foods and maybe all grains.
@@kathrynkemple-mclaughlin4072 lol nah. Some of us are missing the very important fibers from grains as is. The mainstreamification of "gluten sensitivity" is a joke
yup sleep exercise and eating healthy. but I'm male. so I would prefer to be alone ( especially from family ) if I have sleep and pain issues. besides the same level of shallow conversation can be obtained going for a walk and bumping into a neighbor gas station attendant doctor ect.. over time the same expressions as well. lol. so I experiment study and learn. oh I've tried medication, but they intensify pain. so for me plenty of time to myself minimalism and practicing applied rationality. I miss relationships with women some times but I won't sacrifice the level of functionality I have now for cultural expectation. I love how you talk. thanks oh I have a banana warning system. if a back log of 3 bunches collect on the counter somethings wrong. ok no more youtube for a while. it's so true though. there are 3 sets of bananas. Lmao! I can't remember if that was from a movie or not. lol yah time to clean. maybe tomarow.
I accepted that I have an illness but I do not accept medications, therapy and doctor's visit. I do not want to be living in this life longer than I should. Its great to live in a privileged life but I won't take it for granted. Shifting my outlook on life that makes me express gratitude and be inspired really is my much more needed medicine. I did not liked feeling numb and apathetic. Im a human, makes mistakes, likes to be silly 🤪 once in awhile. Enough said.

again niacin and tryptophan are very important, fasting or drinking only water and eating only vegetables is important and losing weight and maintaining it is important. this is an alternative approach than taking those mood relaxers and medications that will do nothing but to sedate the patients. thank you..
maybe xanomeline is a good drug for schizophrenia, it wouldn't act on the dopamine receptors, and has fewer side effects, but I think the drug is still in research phase.
Never had ECt done..... I'll stick to the pills thanks. Eeeeek
Hope you are still feeling good as your pregnancy has progressed, you look great!
Have an amazing holiday 💜
My mother has shizophrenia.
She refuse help because she thinks everyone is sick and crazy, but she is not. There is no chance to "heal" her, as long she dont harm someone or herself. Shizophrenia took over her controll
, there is no chance to help ...
As child my mother always told me humans are dangerous and bad. I belived her as primitive child. So Since my childhood i have social phobia because my mother with shizophrenia told me humans are dangerous. She said a men sexualy abused me which wasnt true. Every day she put dusturbing and paranoia things in my head. After 20 years im still afraid of humans, panic attack ...
It wasnt my mothers fault, its was shizophrenia fault .....
Im schizophrenic. to lose it and be free from it well this is the alternative approach. drink at least 500mg of niacine,DIM(to reduce estrogen in the body) and tryptophan aka 5htp everyday trust me you will feel a tremendous change but it should go with fasting. Niacin, DIM and tryptophan are not meds but supplements so it doesnt have any side effects. You will experience red flush tho when drinking niacin like a sunburn or an allergy for like an hour but it's not dangerous and will disappear eventually. Schizophrenia is often linked to having too much estrogen in the hody so you need to lower it by drinking DIM. avoid meats, junkfood, and sugar and lose that weight, and don't go on yoyo dieting wherein you get thin, you get fat, you get thin again then you get fat again. it will worsen it. bottomline is don't be fat. durvey says that obsese people has a 56% higher chance of having Schizophrenia compared to vegan and healthy people. being fat or going on yoyo dieting will just benefit them cause you are giving out bad life force/energy/aura. stick into being thin.
just eat Vegetables and fruits. your body is a temple. You are what you eat. You gotta keep your mind powerful and your body free from temporary gratifications and pleasure. it may not sound related but trust me it is. you will feel the difference. avoid vices like smoking, drugs and alcohol it will worsen it as well. you need a good aura and positive thinking to remove schizophrenia. clean your home. seeing that it's a mess plus thinking your life is a mess will worsen schizophrenia.

Not to complain or anything but you said the second generation is more expensive than the second generation at 04:33
Maybe you can take the vid down quickly and ad a text correction asterix
My doctors are trying to force medication on me and I'm too scared to take them. Can I be forced to take antipsychotics?
In Sweden the law says that you can force medicate only if the patient is a danger to himself or others. Communicate with your doctor, if you have untreated Sz for long time or you take alkohol or drugs or smoke and don’t take care of nutrition or stop socialising, you can have more brain damage and become a homeless, lonely and sick person.
Try meds and if you have side effects tell your doctor, you can change med or the dose. If your doctor doesn’t listen to you ask politely but persistently to have another doctor. God luck. 🇸🇪
My husband was diagnosed with schizo-effective disorder 6 years ago n was only taking medication for about a year but since then he's convinced that he has a micro chip implanted in his head n that's what causes the voices I've tried to get him to see a dr but he kicked me out of the house n didn't talk to me for 7 months anyway I was hoping you could give me some advice on how to get him help asap

when he says that the voices are real, believe him, but its not a microchip. its a telepath who's doing it to all of us. there are 70million Schizophrenics so it means their are also around 70million telepaths all over the world. he is hearing this persons thought as well thats why it seems like their are many voices
