This conversation is awesome, both of you are so on point. Had me running to a pen to take notes as this is exactly what I needed to hear today.
A really nice balanced approach to recovery. Thanks for this. I really appreciate your focus on grounding!
Thanks for this ❤
Sarah is a cutie😍
Thank you for your videos, but I wonder if one can really say they are “recovered” if they still have to rely on medication? I have real reservations about lifelong anti-psychotic medication.
I guess it depends on what each person feels right for them. No one path is correct it boils down to what values and life each person wants to create for themselves. For some people I know the alternative is dealing with mood fluctuations and episodes, so medication is the lesser evil. Does that mean they are not recovered? I guess it depends on your definition of recovered. But what does matter is they can do the things they want and have choices that they would not have without the medication. If they get to a point where medication is creating more harm than good, most people then look for options that may be more suitable to their needs. I don't think most people want to be on medication but rather do so because it's a tool that helps them have more agency in their lives.
I agree. Longterm psych meds are much more dangerous than we previously thought. Lauren over at Living Well With Schizophrenia has interviewed some people (both MDs and fellow patients) who’ve found non-med ways to manage their schizophrenia, such as through dietary changes.
Also fwiw my reservations about longterm meds are SOLELY for physical health reasons, based on science (and the lack thereof, and the capitalistic corruption therein). I myself took meds for my ADHD for years, and would really really love to just keep taking them, but was forced to find other ways to manage. So while I don’t fault people for incorporating meds longterm, I do hope they’re informed about the havoc psych meds can wreak.
Did any of you have the TV talking to them and did meds take this away cause this is my second time of going through it and had to get ECT last time after suffering for a year.
Nice video ! I have a question . After recovering from psychosis the person emerges with a new personality so does this process impacts a person goals , ambition , desires .?
It could. Just like any event in life could impact one's goals, ambitions, and desires. It just depends on what you are interested in and how your experience shapes the way you see your life. It's not much different from going through a tough breakup or losing something you care about. It can influence how you decide to move forward. Let me know if that is helpful/makes sense.
@@justbeinghayden9451 so he/she can’t achieve their goals and dreams as they were supposed to achieve ?
@@ashkiratdhillon7579 You can still achieve goals and dreams after psychosis. It's just about setting measurable and achievable goals and taking steps toward realizing them. The key is to acknowledge where you are in the moment and know what the next step is from there. Do not apply an expectation that you should be elsewhere than where you are now, accept where you are and take steps towards where you would like to be.
I've been searching for over a year and can't find the video. This is the closest I've come and I believe you might be the person who originally posted the psychosis video I've been trying to find for a long time but I've searched your videos and can't find it.
Sorry, I'm bad with words. What I'm wondering is, was it you who posted the video about psychosis and breaking the hourglass and defeating time? Where God said to stay up until sunrise and he'd find a way to get you inside?
No that was not me. That sounds cool though!
