      Perfectly said. Very difficult for parents, siblings, friends . . . and on and on, in 2023. There is very little actual help vs. constant arrests for "apparent" DUI or "under the influence of drug a.b.c '"possible" drugs that the drug tests can't detect yet. No alcohol, no drugs , just strange behavior. Then dozens of required court days for months and months and months, jail nights, bail bonds. On and on. . . .2023

    For everyone who thinks he was doomed to live a terrible existence, he turned out fine in a follow-up video about him. His recovery is nothing short of a miracle and the solution was something as mundane as a benzo (for his obvious anxiety), other antipsychotics and therapy. I would never have thought he could function outside a mental institution based on this video.

    • @Yeshuah73
      @Yeshuah73 6 месяцев назад

      Benzos do the trick well. Ezpz no bad side effects either. SSRIs are dangerous to people who already have obvious mental imbalances. Your brain makes 4 chemicals for feeling on a daily basis. Taking SSRIs is basically like taking down all 4 pillars to rebuild the one you had an imbalance with then your stuck with more problems because they messed with the rest of your head instead of fixing the one issue. Drs today need to get better at their jobs and prescribing medications and quit being so terrified for their own asses ! They swore an oath to help people like this and I said it myself guarantee 20-30mgs of valium a day and he absolutely would NOT be acting like this. Give him SSRIs he either won't change or hel get worse. Due to the imbalancing of the 4 pillars of happy and chill out chemicals our brains produce. Chop down the dopamine serotonin oxytocin and GABA ALL 4 get haywired to fix the 1 GABA (the relaxy chemical)
      Whereas if they just get a benzo it's directly going to aid them by not messing with every single chemical in their head.. and just calming them down.
      Slowly bring them back. Takes time and care.. SSRIs are terrible. Anti psychotics are terrible. They've done nothing but destroy the mind of my old mother.
      I've been on benzos for 15 years and haven't had any of that manic depressive psychotic crap happen to me.
      Quite the opposite
      And I have indeed suffered psychosis at least once from sleep deprivation. They gave me an SSRI made me start tripping balls then they said oh shit oops and gave me Seroquel then I was unconscious for 3 days out cold then they said okay here just have a valium.. and poof. Issues. Gone.
      Just put me through the ringer with the off label medications they do that to friggin everyone and recommendations for psychs like..it's not for everyone.. all subjective pseudoscience crap.
      Give us more valium!!!!!!!!!!

What works best for me is to get ample amount of sleep, eat well, and meditation. It's chronic whenever I'm tired that's why I tend not to break myself. The interesting here is the voices could speak intelligent things, yet sometimes violent. Though my last worse episode was already years ago when my mental health was close to a breaking point. Presently I'm grateful that I'm recovering.

    Looking at these patients and hearing the kind voice of the sphycatrist, you can see that in some of the old interview,s the patients seem fine!, are asked did they have their dinner yet? and did they enjoy it? and do they like staying in the hospital?, and do they get treated well? and they always give a positive feed back, I mean, in the interviews i have watched?, the patients seem quiet content to me! This guy looks healthy and well taken care off! These patients had beautiful gardens to walk around in , with seats to sit on and to relax and breath in the fresh air! I'm sure it was,nt ALL DOOM AND GLOOM! But I am aware though that there were hundreds of patients and it got Soo over crowded and over whelming for the staff and nurses, that they had to shut it down! Also it was starting to cost too much and the government just couldn't afford to run it! Think of the cost of ALL THE FOOD, on a daily basis and the staff,s wages And the electric bills , and all the exstra essentials that they needed such as cleaning products, clothes, toiletries ,garden maintanance, etc, etc,. Of course there may have been rumours ??🤔🙄 of abuse, but even so , I'm sure it was minimum, probably more so neglect , because of the shortage of staff, they were over run with patients and were exhausted! This I blame on the government and governor of the state or county at the time, . But I'm sure there were ALOT of good doctors/nurses/ sphycatrist,s who dedicated their lives to this strange envoirement, and I'm sure they loved their patient,s and only wanted the best for them! People only ever show the dark side of a of mental hospital and paint it to be all doom and gloom,, but in alot of cases the hospital was the best place for them! Because alot of these patients would have come from abusive and voilent homes with parents who didn't give a F**k about them! Just my opinion🤗

      You mean small doses of pubery blocker....?
      And it depends what hormones are blocked and what hormones to what neurotransmitter pathways.
      It's not a one-to-one effect. Multiple pathways, multiple effects.
      With a hormonal disorder (connected to a genetic d/o or not) the aim of treatment is to boost a particular hormone (unless aggression is needing amelioration or taking steroids in a competition although it seems this won't be an issue anymore if the swimming thing is applied to all sports).
      A lack of hormones could causes the broad autism phenotype and schizophrenia spectrum with low likelihood but more often causes psychosocial issues, muscle issues and other endocrine issues.

    Ive been watching these vids for days. I have a situation that has progressed over the last month with a stranger that walks past my house multiple times daily. Ill see him around noon then again around 4-5 pm or 8-8:30 pm. Im rural so hes walking more than 5 miles thruout the day. Ive observed him standing in one place for hours at a time. No matter the weather. Sometimes he looks at his finger tips, readjust his backpack, stands. He had a dog with him for a time, dog had a vest (well taken care of) and would carry his dogs bed and would make him lay until he was ready to walk again. Ive witnessed two heated exchanges with someone who seems to know him. He is hostile to them. Id say his age is anywhere from older teen to early 20's. Im rural so his daily walking is extensive. I had an animal outdoors i was directing back to their area and when i talked out loud to them, it got his attention. He stopped walking, turned around and stood for 2 hrs. Staring at my house. I could see he was agitated, he paced a few times, and stood staring at my house. Before he left, he said you have a problem im looking at your goats? Well maybe you wont have them anymore!
    Weeks later, i found fir branches cut and broken from a tree at the edge of my driveway by the street. There was a pile of them, apparently he had stood in one spot, breaking them and cutting them and dropping on the ground. I noticed two days ago, my front gate had been unchained, the chain i never use was wrapped twice around the edge of gate as if someone had opened gate but wasnt sure what to do with the chain.
    Ive observed him standing in the middle of the lane of the street after dark, just standing, at the intersection near my street. There have been times recently, when driving he has "noticed" me.
    From his behavior I'd think maybe he suffers from schizophrenia. He no longer has his dog, sad.
    So here I am, researching to see maybe where his head is at. Incredibly tragic and at the same time, I'm feeling quite uneasy with his apparent focus on me. Curious what anyone may think of this.

      It's difficult to know if he's schizophrenic or suffering from some other mental illness or organic brain disease. He could mistakenly see you as a threat. As you probably know, schizophrenics have difficulty interpreting people's facial expressions, emotions and intentions. It's worrisome that he seems to be on his own. This person he argued with, did they seem to be family? He could be avoiding going home because they want him to take his medication or go to the hospital. If he continues to concern you, you can call the police for a wellness check. They are probably already familiar with him. Do you have neighbors you can ask about him?

    So if I understand the description, this boy has been diagnosed since he was two years old? With schizophrenia? Back then wasn’t it called autism? Today if schizophrenia can be detected at such a young age, it would be very rare. I may have misunderstood the written description. Anyway, my son has schizophrenia and his illness took the normal route of between 17 and 25 generally age wise. He was diagnosed at age 25. It’s a terrible disease. I feel so bad for this young man here and wonder where he is today and how he is.

Trying to do a little research for a case Im working on, most obliged. Additonally, I wish you well with your son

    • @jean2479

      @@kggr8458 Thank you so much for your interest. My son did not show any autistic symptoms. His first cousin, six weeks older, though, was diagnosed with autism at about two years old. My son was diagnosed in third grade with ADHD (inattentive type) and also generalized anxiety. There is a history of schizophrenia in particular in my family, my own first cousin has schizophrenia. My mother’s first cousin also. There are two others as well, all on my mother’s side. My son started to have problems in high school but we were not aware of severe mental illness in a way that may have alerted us of what might really have been going on because those symptoms are usually attributed to normal teen behavior. He had his big breakdown in 2013 when he was 25. Unfortunately, this first dramatic break from reality happens after the person has already been dealing with something but nobody knows what’s actually happening, and too often our beloveds are taken away by law enforcement. My son was lucky in that the police recognized mental illness (by this time we knew something was dreadfully wrong). They very kindly got the information they needed to call his father instead of hauling him away, which is a tragic outcome far too often. I always say, “my son is not a criminal! He’s sick.” I don’t mind answering more questions, but of course, remember that schizophrenia is so variable, with symptoms and treatments that are not the same as everyone else who has this illness. I can speak to our experience.

      @Jean. I have no experience of schizophrenia so forgive if I'm wrong but this looks like autism to me and back then they were calling it childhood schizophrenia. Now from what I know into my research into autism as a suspected aspie, they later learnt more and autism became autism and was recognised that autism was wrongly diagnosed as schizophrenia as they knew nothing else back then. But this does look like a lot of quite severe autistic people I've met and come across on the vast array of content from autistic individuals

      My brother in law has what used to be called hebephrenic schizophrenia (now called schizophrenic spectrum disorder I believe) and it's hard to see. For him, it really was a roll of the dice genetically because he is the only one in his lineage who developed schizophrenia. He's a lot like this guy except slower with his motions and he has very specific tics. He does an aggressive pinching movement repeatedly and makes gutteral sounds in between his nonsensical speech. The speech is rarely relevant to the conversation and he is prone to say "silly" things. It's such a severe condition. 😞

    • @Frau.Kanzlerin
      @Frau.Kanzlerin 2 года назад +8

      @Sundae Driver I'm sorry, I should have been more clear. Unfortunately he's my husband's older brother and is unable to care for himself. I don't know that he'd legally be allowed to marry, as he is profoundly disabled enough to still be under his parents' care.
      They're getting older now (and he's about 40) so I worry about what will happen when they become too old to care for him. They do so many things for him including assisting with the most basic hygiene. He's very tall and wide and historically has had some issues controlling his aggression when he's getting too tired or hungry, so I worry that if we were to take him in, he would hurt my daughter. I don't say that lightly, he has just misunderstood her as being a threat to his mother's safety before and pushed her to the ground (she was two at the time, so naturally this scared her AND me). The biggest issue is that if he becomes aggressive, which arguably is not very common given the good care he's given, his father is large enough to physically restrain him, but my husband and I are not.
      I really hate to speak about it like this because it's a terribly sad condition and I mean absolutely no harm, but I'm not sure I have it in me to care for him in his older years. I have no idea what we're going to do when his parents get too old. This condition is extremely challenging and he went untreated for long enough in his youth (adolescence to young adulthood) that he never became functional enough to do some of the most basic things. With earlier intervention, people have much better odds at being able to care for themselves on some level, but the series of events that occurred ended up with him being misdiagnosed as severely autistic. ☹️
      I wish I could say that he was willing and able to have a spouse, but he functions roughly on the level of a five year old. I'm not sure how mild this condition can be, since he's the only person I've known that has really severe schizophrenia, so I would be interested in finding out if any patients with this type can be functional enough to have legal control over their lives. I wish it had worked out better for him and I hope that the money his grandparents put into a trust for him leads to him getting some kind of treatment that helps in any way.
      Sorry to be the bearer of bad news! If you have any further questions about his condition, I will answer them to the best of my ability. I lived with my husband and his parents for about five years, so I've spent a lot of time around him.

      No, this is excited catatonia. Akinesia is a side effect of antipsychotics which are contraindicated for catatonia. Akinesia PRESENTS like excited catatonia, but there are important differences. This patient checks all the boxes for excited catatonia. He's probably taking benzodiazepines and if he didn't improve would be a candidate for ECT, though his young age could be a problem.

      He went to school with my mother, but he was often hospitalized because he was catatonic/psychotic. One major consequence of the catatonia was that he couldn't eat, and his physical health deteriorated. Eventually, he contracted viral pneumonia during a prolonged hospital stay. He's buried in the cemetery near my grandparent's house. I believe he was 21 when he died in 1974. My mom said the day of his funeral there wasn't a dry eye in the village. He really tried hard to fight the schizophrenia, but his medication would only work for a few months, then another crisis, and back to the hospital. He was an intelligent, sweet person from a good family, and he deserved so much more than life gave him, but he's at peace now. 🌹 🕊
