Things Not To Say To Someone With Schizophrenia

- Опубликовано: 5 июн 2017
- Managing schizophrenia is one thing, but managing some people's perception that you must be a dangerous, weed-smoking 'Jekyll-and-Hyde' character is another.
Here are the clichés that people with schizophrenia are tired of dealing with.

'remember its all in your head' is like saying 'cheer up' to a depressed person my lawd
And for those really dense people who say things like "Why are you sad? There's plenty of happiness in life!" To a depressed person, is like saying "You can't breathe? But there's plenty of air here!" To someone with asthma.
trueeee it's like, when someone tells me to calm down and it'll be okay whenever im having an anxiety attack, I know they mean well but yOu DoNt SaY "just calm down" iT'S nOt ThAt EaSy
hazzle bazzil "It's all in your head" "CONGRATS, YES IT IS! It is a "mental illness"! Anything else, Captain Obvious? You could be Captain Helpful if you'd be supportive"
You aren't helping. Stop being a goddamned troll.

"Are you a murderer?"
*Quite a lot aren't but if you bother a schizophrenic for too long with questions like that you might become their first victim*
Da Dragon Durp 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
I can’t 😂
@/vr/ Kek where are your parents?
I would rephrase that sentence: questions like that might make you their first victim
"It's all in your head" well yes so is your whole personality, everything that makes you who you are is in your head too so I mean how do you detach that part of your "head"
Arthouse Ragdoll I just had a similar conversation with someone at work. We both have intense anxiety and we were discussing all the shit people say about the issue. They can't relate.
You ARE your brain!
Arthouse Ragdoll i actually thought of that during my whole 2nd period class. I was thinking what if everything in the universe is in my head. What if my head came up with history, technology, people, trees, games, books, computers, water, food, everything. Then i started thinking about what if i am in a coma in another world and I'm dreaming all of this was happening. I'm going to be honest with you, those were the deepest thoughts I've had in my entire life
Lobotomy. They are always the answer.
people who work at whatever care home things (no clue what they are called in english) arent allowed to say "its all in your head" its just not allowed
You forgot about " Oh but you don't look schizophrenic!"
But thats good....If someone says you dont look like you have schizophrenia, that is a damn compliment...what would would you rather them say, Oh Yeah, I could definitely tell you were crazy and had a mental issue.
@@eduardoroberts4049 Well it's like saying people with schizophrenia look or act a certain way and that there is only one type of scizophrenia.
@@eduardoroberts4049 gets not a compliment because it's stupid you cant look like u have a mental illness
Because one of my symptoms is 'flat affect' where I don't show emotion, my co-workers think I'm super-stable emotionally. Also sometimes I will say something serious and they'll think I'm joking because of the deadpan delivery.
So basically, the most stable person you know might be shattered glass on the inside and you wouldn't know.
My kid was diagnosed at 8 years old... I have had many people say that to me.
"are you dangerous"
yes the voices in my head have guided me to the path of a highly trained assassin who can kill people with a single sheet of paper.

Ife Njock-Barnes yessssss
FiNALLY SOMEONE SAID IT
yeesssssssss this is a must
Ife Njock-Barnes "Stop worrying"
WOW THANKS GENIUS! GUYS!!! WE HAVE A GENIUS ON OUR HANDS!!! (That's what I think every time someone said that)
or they say it's all in your head . I'm like oh really I thought it was a person. that makes me freak out.
In all honesty, my schizophrenic friends are actually the calmest and most nice people I’ve ever met
Calm is prob the meds lol a lot of sedatives
No
Rebekah M uh no they can be actually calm and nice people
X Marks People with schizophrenia aren’t inherently evil. They probably are genuinely nice.
Because we want to fit in so badly it hurts...
2:24 - "I know someone who hears voices but they're positive things, like, you look nice today"
That's kinda dope
Tbh that's so cool yeah
Michael Puckett Isnt that narcissism
That's something we could all use at least once in our lives.
couldnt be me 😔
ferkemall u ignore them. I had severe psychosis for a while, I’d just ignore a lot of the voices
"it's all in your head" wow good job m8 almost like it's a mental illness yeah?
It is
Agape Benedict please tell me you're joking
Yess
Agape Benedict well I’m scared now
That’s because it is!!!!!
I love that they're doing ones on mental disorders. I'd love it if they covered PTSD. The number of times I've been told I don't have it because "You're not a war veteran" is ... above mildly frustrating.
LauWalla THIS. Holy shit this. If I get told that I “can’t possibly have PTSD because you’re not a war veteran” one more damn time 😠
AHHH YESS
My dad told me that same rhetoric about my mom after he straight up gave her PTSD
OMFG YESSS
@@madisongreen7975 Sounds almost like gaslighting
“Are you dangerous”
Everybody in the world has the ability to be dangerous
Your right and just because someone has a disorder or disability doesn’t mean they are dangerous any one can be dangerous enough
A super late comment but I really liked this. A vast majority of people considered dangerous do not have a mental health concern, much less schizophrenia. Peope with menal health issues are far more likely to be victims, which doesn't erase the harm so people have done, but it makes asking the question ignorant. Anyone can be dangerous is an apt statement. :)

Half the comments are deep and moving and the other half are just people saying how hot the girl in the hoodie is 😂
But she’s not
@@ocgsage140 i think she is tho 😳
I hate how all people with Schizo are all portrayed as being dangerous. It’s annoying. Just as the girl with red hair said, not all of them need to be put into institutions and wear straight jackets...I may not have the same thing as them, but I still sympathize with them!
They can be dangerous if not medicated. My uncle is skitzophrenic & when he stopped taking his meds he would hear voices that would tell him to do crazy things, to hurt himself & hurt others. He broke in a church & beat up the pastor. He would attack random people in the streets. They ended up sending him to a mental hospital.
Lulu Zaida yeah, but you have to remember that that is one person out of thousands. Schizophrenics are much much more likely to harm themselves than anyone else.
Right
Yes i have to battle thoughts of self harm daily...gets old i dont think i want to much more of this but i remain hopeful
It's the same with antisocial personality disorder. Just because you lack empathy, conscience and responsibility it doesn't mean you're out on a killing spree or hurt everyone around you for the LULz. In fact it's not easy to live with a condition like that at all.
God, I've been waiting for this one, but you left out one of my personal hated statements when people hear you have a mental illness, especially schizophrenia; 'Oh, but you look so normal".
Please do borderline personality disorder! It's still a massively misunderstood and stigmatised illness and I would love to see it discussed here.
Evie Jordan no one really knows what it is which is sad. Living with it is so confusing at times.
InclytusVirtue I agree. It's very lonely having an illness that no one knows of, and most of those who do know of it view us as monsters. It's sad that mental health awareness never seems to cover it.
Evie Jordan I agree, having this disorder, many people don't understand me
Erika Price Same here unfortunately. I try to talk about it and promote awareness where I can but the stigma against it is so hard to combat.
InclytusVirtue YES
"it's all in your head!"
It's almost like.. like your brain's in there or something...
Absolutely right!
I have brain damage and people don’t say that thing about it being all in my head to me as it’s no secret that nurses blab

Kay but like truee? She’s rlly cute
My mom has paranoid schizophrenia and was diagnosed about 9 years ago. It was super difficult in the beginning before she was diagnosed. I was a teenager in high school and I didn't understand why she had begun to change. She would argue and fight all the time with me and strangers. She lost her job, lost our apartment, cut off all her hair, got a tattoo, she would say that god was talking to her. Everything was a sign or a message. That some sort of storm was coming and that she needed to protect me from everything. She would camp out in the woods. She tried to separate me from my friends. It came to a point where she was actually becoming violent. She didn't understand why I couldn't see what she was seeing and why I couldn't hear what she was hearing. She didn't think she was sick. She thought we were the delusional ones. Luckily, my grandparents lived nearby and I had moved in with them. Sometimes I would leave for school and come back to find a letter for me from her saying that she was in NYC, Canada, or Alaska. She didn't get help until she tried to commit suicide by jumping off a beach pier. Luckily she was saved and institutionalized at the local VA hospital where she was diagnosed and given treatment. It took a while for her to come down from the paranoia and realize that the medication was helping her instead of making her sick. She lives a somewhat normal life now as long as she takes her medicine. It's hard for her to hold a job. She has trouble with stress, focusing on certain tasks, she is easily confused and forgetful. She can differentiate reality from the occasional voices. She tells me that the voices used to sound like a crowded room and they would all say different things. Now it sometimes sounds like the adults from Charlie Brown. She also has therapy every week where she can talk it out with a professional. Her most recent incident was that she had taken her medicine before cooking dinner. When I came home from work at 11pm, I saw the stove on and the food was extremely burned and my mom was asleep on her bed (Her medicine makes her really sleepy). I had to sort of scold her like a parent about not taking her medication before she cooks. Because she could have burned the house down. Everybody's experience with schizophrenia is different. I love my mom and I would never institutionalize her. She took care of me when I needed her as a baby and now it's my job to take care of her now that she needs me.
It sounds like you've been through a lot. thank you for sharing your story, you're very brave
Theresa Shores i really relate to this
I prayed my kids will take care of me if I get worse when I'm older and they r grown great but sad story good luck
ur story got resemblance with me also but with my husband
Theresa Shores I am sorry for your mom I hope she gets better just always be positive and hope for the best

yess there's loads of things that could be used for that one
The Halloween costume thing is REDICILOUS OMG! I sit next to a kid in science who has schizophrenia and he is a very nice kid but sometimes he gets nervous and twitches his legs and he does different things that are very random but it doesn't bother me because he told me that he has schizophrenia and I accept that and I don't stress out about it. I just ignore it and move on. I hope you all will too.😁
Actress LPS people like you are the reason why I still want to be in this generation
schizophrenia is like you don't know what's real, right? you can't tell the difference? and well i'm totally okay with that lol
Good comment just you spelled Ridiculous wrong... I had to correct you I am a huge Descendants fan and one of the songs is literally spelling out ridiculous... have a nice day bye
The reason why he twitches a bit is because he has side effects from certain meds it sucks. He needs CBD to prevent that.
conlan gooch Your spelling of “your” is ridiculous. What the hell even IS “Your’e”? Even if that WAS the proper form of “your” to use, it’s spelled “YOU’RE” not “your’e”
As a schizophrenic, I loved this video. It starts a dialogue in a very fun way. Makes us look like we are, human and not monsters. Loved loved loved it 👌❤️
I appreciate these videos so much because it really helps me to understand the people dealing with different things, such as autism, cancer, and so on.
Meagan Chalmers me too and sometimes it teaches me about new disorders as well.
and i found out about so many things too
and my mom likes me watching this kind of stuff because it's emotional inteligence and general culture
What not to say to people who have asthma : if you lost weight you would be better or my favourite... is "just breathe" 😬
Jacqueline Bull omg so true! my pe teacher once said "don't worry there's enough air in this room"
Gudrun Hartl I was born 7 weeks early and had under developed lungs but don't worry I'll just breathe through it 😬
Jacqueline Bull i have gotten, "Drink more water" before.... Like, i drink a lot of water already.....
Sarulia Yeet yes because drinking water helps when you can't breathe 🙈
Jacqueline Bull 😂
There’s still a big stigmata against mental illness, the way forward is education.
Another thing is "What kinds of things do the voices tell you?" Seriously, why is it so hard to understand not everyone hears clear voices? I'll hear distant voices sometimes but I can't understand what they're saying. Most the time I just see a swarm of flies where there are no real flies or I'll hear banging and movement where there is none. I also get sensation hallucinations where I swear there's a spider or something on me but there's not. Not everyone hears clear voices, there are so, SO many different types of hallucinations. Oh, and another one "Did the voices tell you to self harm?" since I do have scars from my struggle with a cutting habit. Ugh, that one's the worst because, honestly, it's not my disorders that brought on the self harm, it's dealing with the jerks who make me feel worthless because I have disorders that pushed me to that point. and yes, I have answered that question with a sharp "No, it's people like you that caused it." and oooooooooh they get pissy. What, you can be a judgemental prick to me but I can't be an honest ass to you? The axe swings both ways people.
Yea people do have a hard time understanding that there are different hallucinations and that the degree of each differs from person to person and some may not even have one or 2 of the types of hallucinations, for me i had more visual hallucinations when i was a kid but as i got older i started getting less of them and more auditory hallucinations to the point i have to always have some kind of sound to drown it out, most commonly ill hear my name, or a distant fight, or in the worst cases its almost like theres another person in my head screaming at me, and what makes it hard isnt the disorder but the 2 types of people who either treat you like a freak and are afraid, or the ones who say things like "oh your normal just grow up and be like everyone else and stop thinking your special" like it doesnt exist or that im making it up
I think that for these kinds of things, people just need to be more informed about issues like these or, I don't know, learn how to be a decent human being to everyone?? Geez, that's so insensitive of them to just assume and burst out like that...
I some times get a sensation that someone if touching me or I hear someone walking around my house also I sometimes see a woman or a dark figure standing in a room the voices are all paranoid and sometimes tell me to hurt people.
"Things not to say to people with fatigue/CFS" or "things not to say to people with anxiety"
ZophieWithAZ As someone with CFS, I tell you.. I'm tired of people telling me to just take a nap to fix it >___> that's not how CFS works
also, having severe insomnia on top of it is a biiiiiitch. Dx
ZophieWithAZ I wish I could give this more thumbs up. hey ho. 👍👍👍
I have fibromyalgia (which goes hand in hand with chronic fatigue) and nobody in my family understands that regardless of how much sleep I get I'm always gonna be exhausted. They really should make that video
ZophieWithAZ both of these pleaseeeee
Digital Devil King yes! my cfs gives me insomnia which is so dumb like i'm so tired but i can't sleepppp
My father is schizophrenic, so I'm pretty use too and comfortable around schizophrenics. They thought in my teen years I was developing schizophrenia too, but it turned out I was actually dealing with psychotic depression. If you had cancer, or a heart attack, you'd go to the hospital, and there is no shame in being hospitalized for mental illness. Also, for the most part, especially in first world nations; the units are nice, and they are sorted by danger so you aren't around the violent mentally ill.

"Of course it's all in your head. But does that have to mean that it's not real?" -Dumbledore
Last year when I was a junior in high school I did an essay on people with schizophrenia arguing that not all of them are dangerous crazy people, and at the time we were living with someone with paranoid schizophrenia which helped my argument very much because he was a real life example of someone who was not dangerous but yet had schizophrenia.
that was cool

Please do 'what not to say somebody with insomnia!' Or 'what not to say to somebody with a genetic/chronic illness!'

The one that really gets me is, ah nevermind (to someone with a chronic invisible illness) when you're really in pain. :'(
Or 'you look well', when you're suffering with a chronic illness.
that-lil-trans-boy yep me too! and I find people are sometimes jealous of it almost as it makes me seem interesting or get more attention. It's rediculous lol
NoahLouiLife my life growing up with a genetic disorder "so.. are you contagious"
"YES, MY GENES ARE AIRBORNE"
"go to sleep earlier" is one I hear often with insomnia :o)
I have schizophrenia and these questions make me sad...
I’m sorry to hear People can be so rude
Sorry
This is why I've learned to be a good listener and to talk less.
You avoid blurting out so many stupid questions and assumptions that way.
Half a year ago me and a couple of girls had to pitch a story for a script for our script-writing class, and we wanted to write about a girl falling in love with a girl with schizophrenia. The main part was that they met at university, and the very first critique that our teacher had was: "but someone with schizophrenia would never be able to go to university, it's not realistic for them to meet there, she should be on a mental institute or something". Sadly back then I wasn't well educated on the subject so I believed him and came to the conclusion that we should've had made her autistic instead, that that was more 'realistic'. Long story short, I left the group, wrote a script with an autistic main character and passed the class with flying colors.
After watching this video I realize my mistake. We took our teacher's ableist opinion as truth instead of doing the proper research and defending our story. Now I REALLY feel like revisiting that idea for a script.
You should.
It happens. So it's not your fault.
do it.
Yaaas do it!
If you do make it and you film it in the socal area, I'd love to shoot it. This sounds like a beautiful project
I like that this video isn't putting the disorder in a bad light, all these people are just people, dealing with shit nobody understands just like the rest of us
I feel like people with Schizophrenia can be really misunderstood... People look at them like they are absolutely crazy. But they're still people, they're just a bit different.
Oh my god can you do „Things not to say to people with Dissociative Identity Disorder“? Because that one is soooo stigmatised and it gets so annoying.
This video is so insightful. I'll never make a schizo joke again. keep these videos up! the community is growing in acceptance and love. we just need to understand and respect each other more.
Falalongkornz I'm glad you see those jokes are bad!!!
That's very sweet of you. My mother has schizophrenia. I will laugh at any good joke though, what annoys me is that the "schizo jokes" are generally pretty half arsed. The punchline is usually misinformation lol(and I'm one of those annoying "UMMM ACTUALLY" people, so it's really hard for me to not ruin other people's jokes haha). People tend to confuse it with multiple personality disorder.
For a lot of people, it's basically having nightmares while you're awake all the time. Very vivid hallucinations.
I was diagnosed with schizophrenia and bi-polar two years ago. Honestly, the fact that the person is willing to at least try and talk to me makes me not really care what they say.
Falalongkornz it's offensive to some to be called "schizo"
Falalongkornz You can make jokes about it as long as it is not offensive, most people with schizophrenia joke about it, making jokes it's a great way to deal with it
the person in all black with weird written on their shirt..... hi.... ya cute
hii thanks lol
haioemma4 I was about to comment this😩😍
true 😂🙄
Wait. Yes
right?! (+_+)
I love my schizophrenia. After my mom passed away I was devastated and always sad..Until a voice appeared in my head telling me “It’s okay, your mom may be gone physically, but still in your heart. It’s okay. Take deep breaths. It’s okay. I’ll raise you until you’re okay, I know no one could replace your mother but I’m gonna keep you until you both reunite.”
She’s so sweet, her name is Ashley and she treats me like her own daughter even though she’s a voice in my head
someone should put you in a straight jacket my god you absolute weirdo
Omg thats so cutee ! Tell Ashley I said hi

Things not to ask someone with acne next, please!
love love love this series
farzanaindisguise no
farzanaindisguise I don't think that topic is as serious as the others that they have tackled and would be out of place
LaVonne West actually people with acne have to face a lot of critique and prejudices. Like people saying just wash your face, it's disgusting, aren't you too old to have acne, don't wear make up or try being vegan and try this stuff or that. So I think acne fits really well into this series of things not to say 😊. I mean the: what not to say to tall people video could be considered as not serious enough and they still made a video for it.
faceman Yeah I agree. I hadn't seen that one yet when I made this comment. I had only been through around 4 videos and all of them were about mental issues and such. At the same time I may have even been understating the importance of the topic, as I've never had acne so I don't know how it feels
LaVonne West it's nice to see you rethinking that topic. I had sever acne (it got a lot better now) and it was seriously so damaging to my self-confidence.
My brother has schizophrenia and it's awesome to see this type of video. He literally gets these comments and it's so stupid and ignorant. Schizophrenia is different for each person who has it.
Darian Morris I actually don't mind it. The people who ask me these types of questions are genuinely curious.
@@nesquik4556 i agree though sometimes its difficult to answer questions in a way they understand, like with me i have more auditory hallucinations than visual and people dont seem to understand that all schizophrenics have different degrees of hallucinations, and trying to explain the feeling is difficult, but people asking questions is the only way for more people to learn, its just hard to describe some things
Darian Morris Yes! It’s so different for each person! I have schizophrenia too. It is kind of annoying to get this comments, I hope he get’s Some positive comments 2
My dad has schizophrenia but he never gets these questions (he’s in an institution) he did drugs when he was young and got a bad illness when he was even younger
Everyone is talking about how cute/hot the girl in the black hood is...but what about the jeanjacket one tho.😍😍

STAY ALIVE FAZ you are so beautiful Lmao I have an abolout crush on you anyway what does your condition mean
Hella Ellie 1 lool thank you!! I don't have this condition though I was misdiagnosed
If you were misdiagnosed then what is your correct diagnosis?
Do one for depression or anxiety
Krenzy When they come out with one for depression I'm going to send it to all of my friends.
For me, people with Schizophrenia DON'T have another personality, they have a split way of thinking but the personality remains unchanged.
That's why I didn't think Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde was a schizophrenic.
I don't think the author ever claimed that he was? Or if he did, it might've been before DID became more widely known and it was all just considered "schizo" in one way or another. Also, Jekyll didn't have a disorder. Turning into an alter ego was caused by an invention of his, not a condition he had, though I'm sure it was meant to draw a parallel to the parts of us we tend to suppress vs. the parts of us we tend to display.
No I don't think he was meant to be.
!!! thank you sooo much for this video my brother got diagnosed with pychosis and ive been panicking and feeling guilty the last hour and now with you talking and behaving i feel SO MUCH RELIEF! going to rewatch this video over and over until i feel better.
I'm so happy they acknowledged that drug-induced schizophrenia is actually a thing. Whenever I tell someone I'm again cannabis due to the fact my friend had drug-induced schizophrenia and ended up killing himself I always get told that I'm lying and it can't happen.
Charlotte Carson cannabis won't make you get schizophrenia if you don't steals have it. It can trigger it in people that are already likely to develop schizophrenia so really you can't develop schizophrenia from smoking it.
The link between cannabis and schizophrenia is purely correlational and the correlation between schizophrenia and alcohol is higher than between cannabis and schizophrenia but no one ever talks about that one because there's no agenda to be pushed for alcohol
My cousin had it too, from drug use... Sadly he's dead now.. some drug related killing. He was such a generous soul though.. :(
I knew someone who had permanent (several years, even after quitting) drug-induced psychosis because of ecstacy/bubble/legal highs. Didnt quite fit the schizophrenia criteria til the months leading up to his suicide.
Insufferable Know-It-All you do not get schizophrenia from exctasy either
While there is no way to say something does or does not cause a complex illness like schizophrenia, it is well known and documented that mind-altering substances (legal and illegal, prescription and recreational) can trigger the onset of schizophrenic spectrum conditions and mood disorders. You might be born with the potential, but usually something sets it off. For him it was drugs. For my grandmother it was pregnancy. For some people its puberty, stress, hardship etc.
Things not to say to someone with acne!! Things not to say to someone with an invisible disability!! Please!!!
Kristen Wood its not invisible because its visible on your body and its not a disability because its literally just spots..
akihabara! Pretty sure she's talking about two separate things...
I think. . .I think she has more than one thing wrong with her, dude
akihabara! I think they were suggesting the two as two separate topics.
I have brittle bones and the thing I get most often Is wow! how cool to have something quirky like that. or worse still sometimes people are jealous of uniqueness and the attention that you get when you are sick. bloody crazy!!
Thank you so much for this gem. I feel so much less isolated. I feel so validated and understood. When the question asked "are you dangerous"? And the woman answered "well I CAN be" with a tiny eyebrow raise and a twinkle in her eye I really smiled.
I love this video thank you for making this and being so honest my son is struggling with schizophrenia and I hate how bad people treat him he has been kickes out of every place he has lived because people think he's weird and it just kills my heart to watch him say he doesn't have any friends anymore and he wishes he could go back to when he was never diagnosed. This gives me hope for people to stop crucifying those with mental illness and just stop being afraid of something you don't understand when that's all it is is you don't understand so you impulsively turn to fear!

Telling anyone with any mental illness it's in their head, where else do u expect it to be?? In their kidney??? I'm speaking from experience
My friends father had schizophrenia , one day he wrecked the house because he said the devil was there, it was terribly sad. He ended up committing suicide because of it and I will never forget how it effected my friend.
That's sad...
The one with black clothes is very good-looking
So is the girl on the right to her
Please do a 'Things not to say to someone with an eating disorder', a 'Things not to say to someone with OCD' and a 'Things not to say to someone who self harms' cause I really need to hear other people describing their experiences with these issues, just so I know I'm not alone lol
Sorry In Advance I'm with you!
I'm pretty sure they wouldn't do a "person who self harms" one.
Also “are you having a vision right now?”
thank you for featuring the part about tactile hallucinations. i get these sometimes (they can last for months at a time) and it's so stressful.
My voices make me feel powerful, fearless, and beautiful and it's literally amazing. But, sometimes, other voices come in and tell me I'm worthless, ugly, fat, weak, etc, but then they fight. And it's hard. This mostly happens when insulted about something to personal or I'm overwhelmed. Also when I'm stressed out, I hear screams and car collisions.
Just Some Person Lol My voices mostly talk about useless random stuff and repeat stuff, or they say negative things like I'm worthless. It's especially annoying when I try to focus on something like a test or when I'm reading a book because they get louder.
Stella Lupus im with u o. This one
Stella Lupus i can barely tyyylpe
Just Some Person Lol you're lucky unlike me
Just Some Person Lol I'd tell you people to get help, but America has such shitty mental heath care that it would be pointless
On the other hand you get people saying 'We all get problems with our mental health sometimes' thereby trivializing what is an extremely serious mental illness and passing off symptoms ( especially negative and cognitive ones) as 'nothing to worry about'. That can be as annoying as those who think you should be in an institution. Good video though.😊
My mom is schizophrenic and hasn't been on medication for most of my life (I'm almost 23 and a Black American female). When I was about 3, I knew that there was something wrong with her mentally because she was having hallucinations before CPS got involved. I think the worst thing you can do is isolate anyone with any sort of mental disability whether it's an illness, or if they have an intellectual disability, autism, etc. I'm so glad that people are becoming more open, aware, and curious of these things. Thankfully, I have family that is so close to her and she is basically everyone's aunt. I'm so grateful with other people's patience. Especially since we figured out what her triggers are and things like that. Wouldn't trade that old lady for the world. Thinking of going to grad school for psychology or sociology just so that I can help her without doping her up on a bunch of meds. The US is such a pill pushing nation.
CBD can help too. Look up Cannabis Oil as long it has no THC. Do some research it has Omega positive effects to the brain.
I hope you do pursue that route... it seems like you would be such a wonderful advocate
I was recently just diagnosed with schizophrenia and this made me feel a lot better about myself. Thank you to all you beautiful people.
I loved when she said "Their is no such thing as normal"
VeryBlondeJ they're, their, there
I love that also… Who’s “the” say on what is normal anyways ha ha Ha !!! 😳
There*
Ugh, I can relate to "it's all in your head" because I've been told that or "cheer up" with depression and I say "Well no shit, but how's that supposed to help me?" If I could make myself happier, don't you think I would? Sometimes people are plain idiots.
I’m not even schizophrenic or DID and it absolutely boils my piss when people confuse the two.
Don’t stop making these videos they are so understanding and wonderful
pleaaseee do dissociative identity disorder! we get so much crap about it
JaninasSolar_system "Are they like imaginary friends?" "Do you see people?" "Do you hear voices?" "Don't you mean schizophrenia?" "You're making it up" "Stop pretending to be different people" "There's nothing wrong with you" "So you hear voices?" "That's the same thing as Borderline Personality Disorder right?" "So do you know who I am?" "Can I meet/talk to the others?" "You're still one person, you just act like other people sometimes"
Gamerbids ohh my god. Exactly
JaninasSolar_system I've just been learning more about DID and I find it very intriguing. Might be the most strong example of the capability of the human mind. I just hope it wasn't too hard on you my friend.
You probably are making it up
Things not to say to someone with anorexia please!
Emily Horner Yeah I'd like to understand that one better

My best friend is schizophrenic and he is one of the most gentle people I've ever met. He is ridiculously intelligent, friendly, open-minded, funny and understanding. I'm autistic myself, so he knows what it's like to be put in a negative light by society and the media. These videos are so amazing; they're a well-deserved slap in the face to all the neurotypicals who can't do anything else than stereotyping us (and they call us low-functioning...)
FAZ. YA CUTE.
guys i’m funny ayy

THINGS NOT TO SAY TO SOMEONE WITH A LISP

Thingths not to thay to thomeone with a lithp
Omg yess
THELIFEOFLEO2631 I have a lisp, but lol, I could hear myself pronouncing it that way 😂😂😂
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This girl I know self diagnosed herself with schizophrenia and she describes it completely opposite then what it is. don't self diagnose yourself because it's not cute
it's savannah yo Do me a favour and be the voice in her head that she apparently wants.
I self diagnosed myself with social anxiety disorder, but I went to a doctor, and then to another, and then one last doctor, and I found out I had autism communication disorder, OCD, ADHD, depression, and a tic disorder
Amen. Self-diagnosis is dangerous!
My diagnosis is not final, but please go tell her to eff off
Where do you go to see if you have OCD, ADHD, or any of that. Do you go to see a therapist?
Psychosis and schizophrenic myself. The description of multiple realities occurring is a lovely analogy. It's like seeing different scenarios occurring all at once and you're not sure which one is really taking place, or which one you're interacting/engaging with, or who or what is being spoken. A few friends have said it makes conversations will me rather colorful, or that I add unique perspectives on things as my narration will float and hit checkpoints that occurred within my conceived perspective of the conversation, just make sure you end with a compliment... Anyway.
Voices or thoughts, can be loud or quiet, clear or scratchy, mannerisms and attitudes that they have conflict or resonate within you as you feel that they are your own, or you're not sure if they are, which takes you down the rabbit hole of knowing or not knowing who or what you are. It's a really exhausting trip.
Empathy is something we all could afford to have more of, not just for ourselves but for each other
This is great. My brother is struggling really bad with his schizophrenia but he's one of the sweetest people I know. He's amazing he just hasn't had the happiest life. But most people don't.
Things not to say to someone with panic attacks Please!!

Holly his name is adam
I'm always really supprised how much I relate to these kinds of videos! Not even really the questions, just the in between parts of "yes/no because I feel..." kind of thing... I feel like I fit into a lot of these kinds of catagories, even though I'm only diagnosed with Asperger's syndrom. (at least as far as I know... :|)
I don’t have schizophrenia I have schizoaffective so I get it, but another thing they should’ve said is when a person with psychosis has a delusion, don’t tell them they’re stupid or crazy or make them feel bad about themselves for having delusions. Great video tho!!!😁👍💕
hope my brother can be as functioning as them one day
can we talk about the fact that the person completely in black is beautiful afffff
Luzia ikr!
No F off
Everyone already talk about this please don't add more of these
Looks like a dude.
Yes we can all the time if you want
this is such a needed conversation
"If only you could get in here and see what it's really like".
Yes, this.
