It's interesting to see people who fake psychosis without inherently knowing the the more covert symptoms and how the symptoms generally present. As an example auditory hallucinations are one that many people continuously get wrong on tiktok. --- I get psychotic symptoms when I've been under great amounts of stress for long periods of time to the point where my reality is so distorted that I would rather end game than continue to live. It's not a fun or quirky experience being in and out of inpatient services. I don't know why people would WANT to experience it. Those kids won't think it's fun anymore when they finally get taken seriously and are locked into a psychiatric hospital with other people who are actually mentally ill.
I have both a psychotic disorder(schizophrenia) and ASPD and thus posses both psychotic and sociopathic symptoms, none of this is something desirable, spending summer break in jail isn’t cool or edgy and being disowned by your family after your psychosis induced actions were exposed is not something to seek out, it genuinely enrages me when i see this sort of stuff… it was laughable when a bunch of children were running around dressed as dogs claiming to have DID but this is a whole other level of degrading. I want to find one of these brats and show them in person just how “cool” a real sociopath is Ha!
I totally agree and share your frustrations. I have my own various diagnoses and being hospitalised isn't fun or something you can tell people to look *special, mysterious, edgy* it's fking awful. Especially when it involves psychotic episodes or illnesses. You have no idea why you're being kept there, you feel staff and drs won't take your complaints or questions, even sometimes your experiences seriously.
It can be terrifying not to know the truth about your basic surroundings the who what where why etc. Personally I find the confusion the worst symptom, combined with the absolute lack of positivity. Feeling no hope, motivation but combined with all I can describe as waking fever dreams,.hellish nightmare type existence where your illness is convincing you the only logical action is to non alive yourself but nobody will let you,.they're forcing you to be further traumatised and it's an awful terrifying state of mind to be in so yeah, it pisses me right off to see idiots playing pretend for more attention. Always desperate for attention. Why?!!
I can't imagine your frustration towards people who trivialize psychosis and ASPD. It's so disrespectful to portray these conditions as something desirable and perpetuate harmful stereotypes without understanding the real consequences and struggles that people face. It's not a trend.
Also, thank you for sharing your perspective to show the reality of living with these conditions.
@@83moonchild It's frustrating to see others pretending for attention when the reality can be so devastating. Being in a hospital while in a psychotic episode sounds terrifying. Thank you for sharing about the realities of living with mental illness.
Someone can have symptoms of psychosis ie: auditory / delusions and maintain the ability to know they are experiencing distortion- to have a psychotic diagnosis or experience there is loss of reality testing meaning the person doesn’t realize there experience is not accurate- it is VERY real in the moment. Like any diagnosis - just because someone experiences a symptom, that does not mean they have the diagnosis ( you are not in psychosis if you have maintained reality testing)
people in psychosis can certainly sometimes make videos - but generally, in those videos, they are rambling, incoherent, visibly just out of it, and never know they are psychotic. they make the video on some other thing and it's just evident they are psychotic. I frequent certain websites such a conspiracy websites where some users are clearly unstable and some of them do post strange videos from their small personal channels. you can clearly tell there is psychosis happening in *some* cases, but it's also completely evident that person has no idea they are coming off that way (and the video isn't ABOUT their psychosis, the topic is always something else that reflects the state of psychosis).
I also had a friend who would send me videos of really random things he claimed were evidence of people stalking or harassing him which very clearly had nothing happening in them. I pointed this out to him - kindly - but his delusion totally persisted. He didn't think he was psychotic even when I told him bluntly there was nothing there.
Also, all this shit about it being some massive danger to reality check someone in psychosis? I've yet to EVER see a real case of psychosis where someone was reality checked and it had any impact on them whatsoever. At the very least, I've never seen a negative impact. This is another weird myth this pseudo-disorder community developed on their own and spread through their influencer network. That's another warning sign, the only time I ever see anyone demanding others not reality check them it's been little kids claiming to be "psychotic" "IRL"s ('I'm really Wilbur'). Also, demanding not to be reality checked is a paradox because demanding people not to point out reality means that you are well aware what you believe isn't reality. EVEN when a person with delusion is somewhat self aware, they are almost never 100% certain that other people are right about their delusion not being true. A lot of the time that awareness comes down to, "I know that other person is probably right rationally, but no matter what I do I can't help the fact that this really really feels true to me"
Thank you for sharing! It makes sense that people experiencing psychosis may not always be aware of their condition, and their videos or actions may reflect this lack of insight rather than talking about having it.
& thanks for sharing your experience with your friend reality checking. I didn't think about potential negative outcomes to reality checking & it's probably different for each person. But also individuals experiencing psychosis are at an increased risk of self-harm so it makes sense that reality checking is important.
You're right it is total bs about reality checking. I've been hospitalised quite a few times, and when I've been convinced of certain things eg. People inside my room, dangerous patients having escaped and living inside the walls, the food being laced with various drugs to use us as guinea pigs and not have to pay to test consenting adults, drs and staff would check my room, use their phones against walls to prove there was no sound recorded and they'd even eat the food first to prove it wasn't tainted. Its part of calming and bringing a psychotic patient back to a clearer way of thinking and reducing symptoms whilst building trust!
6:40 it's actually really important not to argue against people in their delusions. It can cause very much destress. You can tell them you find it hard to understand but you cannot tell them they are wrong
The countdown animation is adorable.
Thank 🌞
This was a great video! Loved it! So well detailed and informative. 😊
Thank you Eva!
Once I saw video made by man with psychosis in his episode. His girlfriend helped him with that and was with him for the whole process. It was kind of attack he could predict. The reason why he wasn't on proper medication was specified but I do not remember. This video is well known so I or somebody else could find it and link it below.
I think you really gotta go off of the person and their therapist’s plan of action when it comes to reality checking. With someone I’ve experienced with psychosis, reality checking wouldn’t have convinced them they weren’t their delusion and likely would’ve agitated them more. Just made sure she was safe and tried to keep her calm.
Great video as always! I’ve never experienced psychosis, so I can’t speak to that experience, however I have known people with dementia and other reality altering disorders. It could depend on severity, but if someone near you if experiencing reality altering symptoms, it’s best to live in it with them. Keep the stress down and gently lead towards a calm space. It’ll pass.
Thank you for sharing this. It makes sense to live in it with them because it could be distressing to be told your experiences aren't real. Even if reality checking it's important to have empathy & a willingness to meet the person where they are.
@@michelle_mana depending on the person, what they experience, therapy, and other helping tools, they can become combative to their current reality being challenged. In some cases it’s appropriate to address them afterwords about what they perceived to avoid further distress.
I have experience of psychosis. For me I can somewhat predict when I am likely to become psychotic as there is a general pattern of deterioration. Likely because I've been through it a couple of times. Like now I suspect one is coming (tbh based on the pattern I should currently be deep in psychosis but I'm fine so who knows) but that just means I'm emailing my local authority asking for urgent care. It's deeply personal + not something I care to talk about. It's also confusing af bc I can't follow psychotic me's logic so it's kinda just an incomprehensible blur not something I could really share
Generally psychosis is a symptom though, so you're not going to get "diagnosed with psychosis" you're going to be referred to psychosis teams + prescribed meds + not really given any diagnosis until it's clear the underlying cause like bpd, bipolar, pregnancy, a brief stress induced episode, ptsd, ocd, etc
Hey friend, hope you're doing well! Let me watch this and I'll be back to comment more.
Hey! Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you enjoy the video. Looking forward to hearing from you!
@@michelle_mana I have a lot to say lmao
