www.ihealthmark... - A video about the day in the life of a person suffering from Schizophrenia. The video is designed by Janssen, a pharmaceutical company.
@@alexmontano4983 No you fucking dont and dont say that because you dont know how hard It Is, I'm a schizophrenic and I'd give anything to get it away from me.
Actually, it was the girl at the end who ordered the pizza. If you listen carefully to the phone call, you'll hear her mention that she ordered a pizza.
Maybe he imagined that the girl in the end exists. Maybe he imagined that he even ordered or got pizza. Maybe he is even just imagining the whole world, when in reality nothing exists and its all his brain trying to occupy itself.
This.....is terrifying. I almost had to shut my laptop. Have mercy on any schizophrenic who has to deal with this on a daily basis. Bless their hearts.(:
schizophrenia really sucks for an 11 year old, who cant see her dad because HE has it so severe too. its just like this in real life. sso on tpo of the schizophrenia, I don't see my dad. this totally sucks :( im good at hiding it from my friends. but I tell people who have an interest in the disorder. thank you for the wonderful comment. lifts my spirits
My best friend is schizophrenic. His dad has it and so does his brother. One time he was telling me a story that on a long road trip home from college one weekend he managed to convince himself that he had ran somebody over but forgot and spent the whole night driving and looking for a body. Apparently darkness and driving were bad triggers for him because they really put yourself inside of your own head.
What you just described sounds more like he’s OCD where one of the symptoms is that the mind is flooded with persistent thoughts. So your friend was persistently thinking that he ran someone over.
Very nice and pretty accurate simulation. However, at the end, when the caregiver comes in (wife, family member, whatever, obviously still a caregiver), all his symptoms seem to subside, and he seems to trust her. But in a patient having a psychotic episode or break, especially with paranoid delusions, his symptoms wouldn't go away upon seeing a caregiver, someone meaning him well. The voices would tell him that she's part of the plot, that she's "in on it", that she can't be trusted. They'd say, " SHE ordered the pizza! She's trying to poison you!" etc.
Don't be misled, everybody. Not all schizophrenia is this severe. Some schizophrenia is very mild and only requires medication, if any at all. Please don't discriminate schizophrenics because of things you see on TV or in movies. Reality is just as surprising as you may not think.
I suspect I'm schizophrenic because I hear and see shit alot more than I should, like living moving things, it's not as bad as this video portrays it, which I'm glad for, but it's still not ideal
In clinical psych, a “mild” case is impossible cause the severity is too low to mess with functionality. People with mild schizophrenic symptoms can never be said to be suffering from schizophrenia. The case shown is in between mild and severe. The hallucinations in this video aren’t that prevalent. Some people hallucinate whole lovers, it depends on the case.
Newecreator This is indeed very common if you read musicophilia by Oliver sacks he actually describes it, it's nothing to worry about. I happen to hear my iPhone ringing while the dishwasher is on frequently, it's the strangest thing.
This comment was posted 4 years ago but funny story when I'm playing a game I listen to RUclips (Mutahar or Critikal). I started a video and began to play I soon looked at my phone because the video wasn't loud enough and it was a 0 and I could hear it. I was pretty spooked.
That's happened to me when I used to binge drink. I would get all sick and hear voices like my girlfriend talking shit about me when she wasn't even talking and other creepy shit just like this except more like whispers when it was random voices.. Good thing it went away after a few days of being sober. That's why I quit drinking.
@@odinharou7112 Yeah dude it's weird cause it sounds so real most the time. Like it's not like demons and stuff it's hearing actual people but it sounds like it's coming from the other room so you think it's real. My girl would be in the other room with her brother and it would just sound like muffled chatter as if they were really talking so it messes with your head rather than just hearing creepy stuff that's obviously fake. And I would be at my house and hear the kind of noises from her house like she has birds that make a specific sounding whistle that you always hear in the morning so I'd wake up hearing that in the morning and be confused for a second thinking I was still at her house. It gets annoying too hearing stuff when you're trying to just zone out in a movie or video game.
chavrons1 well i mean what they go through day to day is so fucked up, a horror film must be a cakewalk, but i know what you mean, that they might think the fiction happening on screen is reality.
Acedia Tristitia i can stay horror flims make are delusions worse and more scary but horror flims arent that scary but they can mess with your psychosis alot
IhaveParanoidSchizophrenia right, so horror films aren't that scary in and of themselves, but they can contribute to your psychosis and make it worse, interesting, thanks for sharing. can you watch a horror film without it effecting your psychosis? i guess there are certain times when you're more level headed than others, even when you're not on medication, or can you only watch them on meds?
My heart goes out to all those suffering from this condition. I don't like that is called a disease, disease implies that you are dirty contagious and should be avoided. I like the term disorder more. While I know some say This isn't accurate, this is very eye opening. We need more schizophrenia awareness
im a schizophrenic (yes, at 11 it totally sucks :( and this video i'd say is pretty accurate. the voices... well, yes they're pretty negative and you just wanna talk back to them, but I don't... but the video is pretty true for any of you wondering, and yes, like it said at the beginning, no case is typical. sooo just letting anyone know who was wondering. :(
PokemonFTW I'm eighteen and have been dealing with this disorder for longer than I can remember..they weren't always so negative..but they ended up that way..I hope you and the purple camel kid can soon learn to control them better..I was anorexic for awhile because of them and others around me. Stay strong kids.
Richard Garrett Yes. it's a mental disease but it's caused by Satan. I have seen how these demons enter the BRAINS of people. It is TERRIFYING! Witch doctors and voodoo worshipers actually SPEAK CURSES and SEND DEMONS that enter these people brains.
Mizuiro Sora I don't have Shiz. Glad to disappoint you. Also, hearing voices are NO LONGER just linked to Schiz. They are the underlining results of despair, deep sorrow, disappointment, and major forms of trauma. You should educate yourself before speaking. Also, there is a such thing as spiritual gifts from God which allows you to see demons and spirits and angels and all sorts of celestial as well as demonic things. I know you wish you could see Satan while he's in the mist of destroying you, so you can have the upper hand and beat him at his game. Also, witchcraft and voodoo is a result of hearing voices as well. Being able to detect those too are great. Many reasons to hearing voices. Don't be so quick to assume things. Educate yourself some before speaking judgments without facts to help you judge properly.
in the game "hellblade: senuas sacrifice" u play a girl that has schizophrenia. they call u names and shit, and sometimes u get a psychotic episode where everything turns black, u hear voices and see things. and u have to solve puzzles in the meanwhile. its a pretty damn good game
discuss or disgust? it's a joke to people because they have no idea how someone could be afraid of their own mind I think it's where schizophrenia people aren't really happy to be alive like some people. It's a state of taking many things for granted then the mind finding ways to invent bullshit then it run out-of-control. When people are happy to be alive there is no way they can think like this. The only thing that would hurt them would be anger. Easiest way to not become mental, happiest and cheapest route to maintain, but also the financially poorest usually.
Anthony Abelardo i meant disgust sorry my english... it's not my native language... i agree with your point of view... in these days the word "empathize" it's so over used that its meaning is already lost... it is a shame
Max how about you stop saying or I will report you Cause once you have the illness then it feels like hell but i don't have it but I feel for the people going through it so you better do your research before speaking OK.☺☺☺😒😐😐😐😑😑😑
What's the difference between "hearing voices" and trying to manage your own internal monologue, self doubts and insecurities that we all have. I can't imagine having voices like this. Fucking scary.
Liam David I'm curious about this as well like I definitely have an internal monologue I feel like we all do. I wonder if the voices people with this difficulty hear sound like regular voices because that must be very frightening. Blessings to anyone who is struggling with this, I'm learning more about it because I recognized I didn't understand it very well and made some bad assumptions.
Liam David I've heard voices before, the thing is we have control over our internal monologue, when you hear voices it's like someone's talking to you who isn't there. They can sound external or they can echo in your head. When it first happened i didn't really think much of it but when reality set in i freaked out...
The difference is the intensity of the stimulus. In healthy brains, a function exists to ensure that the brain can always tell the difference between real stimulus (stimulus caused by external sources) and imagined stimulus (stimulus created by our own minds). When we sleep, since there are no significant changes in stimulus from the external world, our brains ignore it all, only subconsciously paying attention to it, this leaves only internally created stimulus, and so it takes over and becomes the person's entire experience. This is called dreaming, and when I say experience, I mean experience. There is absolutely no difference between imagined stimulus and received stimulus. Stimulus is stimulus. The (healthy) brain naturally focuses on real stimulus much more than on imagined stimulus (imagined simply means recalled and recreated by the brain itself), creating the illusion that dreams are inherently unlifelike and simply feel weak, when that's impossible. Daydreams are, since our brains are naturally focusing on the real stimulus more making the imagined stimulus seem weak in comparison, but when you're asleep, there's not of that. You're just inside your own mind. In schizophrenic brains, there is no such function. The brain can't differentiate between externally received stimulus and imagined stimulus, so they're all equally prioritized. In other words, your inner monologue would be as intense as someone actually speaking to you. Let me reiterate; talking to yourself through mental projections within itself is NOT crazy; we all do it every night in dreams, and it's a healthy and essential process, but being unable to distinguish between imagined and real perceptions is. Hope this helped.
It’s different from thoughts. Thoughts you hear in your mind, but the voices or auditory hallucinations you can hear like it’s in the room with you. That’s my experience with my audio hallucinations. Also, you can’t control the sounds like you can with thoughts. My thoughts are in my voice, but one thing I hear sometimes is a dog growling, sniffing, nails walking across the tile. I don’t have a dog. Ugh
So many people are unaware of the pain and depression that come with mental disorders. They think that it's just something you have and you should deal with it. But it's never that easy. I don't have schizophrenia, but I do have OCD, and as awful as OCD can be, I can't imagine schizophrenia. My heart goes out to those who do suffer from it.
My aunt has this disorder. She sees and hears things and yells on the top of her lungs. People laugh at her, call her "crazy bitch". It hurts me that she goes through this
lmaoo. when i was 14/15 and i had just started smoking i used to get the same way. i think they're called "terrors" or something of the sort. I'd get suuuper paranoid and freaked out. I'd literally be o the ground in a fetal position just wishing i wasn't "high" anymore. of course most of that was just because i didnt know what to expect really from smoking pot so my mind was basically creating problems stemming from my anxiety. after a few times though i fell in love with the shit lmao
My doctor told me I have an unusual type of schizophrenia, because I was diagnosed at 15 and my hallucinations are constant and invasive, as they are mostly felt and seen. I could feel being sexually abused by demons, and I could touch and smell blood flowing down my walls. I obviously hear things too, mostly sexual or murder related stuff. I had brief catatonia experiences too.
My mom is schizophrenic and most of what she does is cussing out strangers and telling them their future, a lot of the time starts hysterically laughing out of nowhere, opening the window and screaming at the voices in the cars speaking to her, lying in the road because god told her to, running into the train tracks without her clothes on and screaming at bicyclists, all kinds of stuff. It's excruciatingly hard for the family to live with as I can't explain the half of it, but I never actually realized how much schizophrenics must already be going through when they have to suffer this kind of a daily life, and on top of that all of the discrimination and trash they get. Thanks for this video, kind of gave me a better idea of things.
Katherine Pagan Not to be preachy, but you shouldn't minimize your experience by saying it's "just" depression. People who don't have a clue like to poke fun at depression like it's all just minor sadness and malingering: don't listen to them. Depression can be a very serious problem. There's always somebody out there who has it worse off than you, and somebody who has it better off than you-but you're the one who has to live your own life, so take your own problems seriously and get help if you need it.
Sarah, thanks for being concerned. I am currently in therapy and I'm getting treatment. However---I guess this is just the nature of depression---I still have trouble insisting that people consider it a disease, when even I so often feel like I'm just whining. But I really do appreciate you being concerned---it means a lot : )
I have a lot of respect for those living their daily lives with schizophrenia! Personally, as a student nurse in the psych ward, I would not be able to live like this! I have no idea how they can even interact with other people with voices flowing in their brains!
I am diagnosed with OCD and Bipolar 1. I have had psychotic breaks with my illness before. Knowing fully of this, one night I decided to smoke some pot with some of my homies. The night before, I forgot my medication. After a couple hits, I was feeling good. But, after a couple moments, I noticed my friends began to insult me. At first, I figured they were just joking around, so I laughed it off. Almost 30 minutes later, they were continuing to berate and harass me. I became frightened, thinking one of them was about to strike me. I hit him. Next thing I know, I'm being held down, with no idea how it happened, and they were telling me to calm down. I get up, and apologize. But, they continued their bullshit. At this point, I was desperate to get them to stop. Then it struck me. They weren't doing anything to me. I realized I hadn't taken my meds, and it was probably another psychotic break that was occurring. I was able to leave the room, and sleep. When I woke up the next morning, everything was back to normal, although my friends were not too happy with my behavior the night before. What I'm wondering is, if I was able to think through my psychosis, and realize it was in fact MY delusional thinking, are some schizophrenics able to do this as well?
My heart breaks for how shallow the world is sometimes. The other day, I overheard a girl say "OMG homeless people are so CREEEEEPYYYYY". A lot of homeless people are schizophrenic and/or have other mental conditions that don't allow them to keep a job/home/"normal" societal life. It's not fucking "creepy", it's an extremely sad, heartbreaking epidemic that needs serious attention. If someone in that girl's family had a serious mental incapacity/disorder, she wouldn't be talking all that shallow, narrow minded bullshit. People need to take a step outside of their own narrow scope of existence and see that others around them are suffering from horrific plights. All it takes is an effort towards love and compassion, rather than giving into the fear of things unknown.
TheAnyKey This has nothing to do with homeopathy. Homeopathy is nonsense in my opinion.It is scientifically proven that schizophrenics are NAD+ deficient, which is made from Vitamin B3. Thus high doses of it are very helpful. The conversion from B3 to NAD+ is enzyme-dependent, but in some people these enzymes are not working properly, due to genetics. High doses make up for these enzyme defects. The omega-3's are important for myelination, another important process known to not be working properly in schizophrenics.Take your closed-mindedness somewhere else please.
My sister is in psychosis. She isn't capable of any contact. She Just stares at the wall and laughs by herself and doesn't anwser on anything i say. I don't know what to do.
Well, from what I understand, there are many types of schizophrenia. So, the severity may differ on what type. That's just what I think, let me know if I am wrong.
DahProGamers Please don't feel sorry for her. Just try to help her, let her know you're there for her no matter what. It helps tremendously to have loving family and friends who you can be sure to trust. Trust is what it's all about. It's like an anchor to the real world, because when it happens the trust for the world falls away and all that's left is you and the small amount of certainties you have left. Become a certainty for her.
Why can't the voices be friendly for once. Jeez. Everything bad. Are there cases where the voices actually MOTIVATE or PRAISE you? Wouldn't that be the awesome? Why just all the bad stuff? It is puzzling. I'm not making fun, I'm just wondering why is it so... against you. Why not the opposite? Its just not random - it is mostly negative stuff.
+Xspy70 In places where mental disorders aren't demonized like the western world does, it is reported that that in some cases the voices and visuals are seen as friends and they couldn't imagine a better life without them. It'd be lonely. This condition isn't the same for everyone.
+Xspy70 I refuse to get a diagnosis till i am too old to work and can live off the government tit because i am not a danger to myself or others. But I believe i am schizo-typal. For me it is like my childhood imaginary friends stayed with me. I have learned many many ways to cope and little rules for my mental diet etc. I have had episodes like this video. it got real bad over a particular summer where i had delusions that i could hear my neighbor's negative thoughts about me. *ha* eventually i straight up faced the voice demon and said.why is it that you need be to believe i am so bad. Don't you know i would have to be perfect to be that horrible. anyway my daily voice....is indeed as if a friend and personification of my own thought process. And we do not allow ourself the foolishness of rounds of self hate....just wish i could help others see thru it. We all have wonderful worlds within ourselves.
I've reported a lot of comments today, I've never seen a more serious subject treated with such blatant disrespect and utter indifference, They were cruel, thoughtless, and just plain mean. Ignorance, apparently, is not bliss. By the by: The term "Schizo" is an archaic appellation that is used invectively to hurt and belittle. It's considered rude and uncouth now.
@@Bedtimebuni @Buni ahahhahaahaah, ableism! Ahahahahah I fucking love treating heavy subject matter with puns and reddit humor even though I am not a part of the group I'm ridiculing! Nobody: wholesome Keanu chungus 100: I'm hearing voices! Ahahahahahahaahh why aren't you laughing? I just made an EPIC RUclips comment belittling othee people's suffering! For my next EPIC joke I'm gonna yell the n word at the black family in my neighborhood! Surely they are going to understand my EPIC CHUNGUS 100 DARK HOOMER and don't kick me in the groin! Man I'm so funny!
Schizophrenic symptoms can be easily induced with sensory deprivation by sitting in a completely dark and silent room for 15 minutes. Read this article: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19829208
as a diagnosed paranoid schizo I'd say this is somewhat close to what its like, however for me the voices are outside or like if I'm at the grocery store they'll be in another isle it is 2 voices male and female talking about me constantly but what they say don't really affect what I'm doing, they are just annoying and make it feel like someones always watching me
The point is that she is so cheery, so unaware of the complete terror he is experiencing that a person might not be able to get the treatment or understanding that they need.
Man I can't stand a few people talking at once...I can see how it would drive someone insane...I can't/don't want to imagine going through this on a daily basis.
This would have to be terrifying to live with. I had nightmares just from watching this video. It must take a lot of strength to live your life with a disease like this.
It is terrifying. My mom is diagnosed with this and it is probably the hardest ordeal experience of my life. This caused my parents divorce. My sister pretty much raised me. I didn't have a childhood because of having to always take care of my mom. A lot of people take their mothers for granted I would love to have just an ordinary conversation with my mom.
Well I got schitzofrenia. And I remember when the TV spoke to me to.. couldent tell if they really said things about me or that it was just "hallucinations".. it begins to shift your consiousness into believeing your the only one in universe and that everything is an illusion when the TV is starting speaking directly to you. I have been medicated for 2 years now... and I believe in some sens it was good for me. This was pretty scary for me to watch..... brings back memories
I went out with this beautiful young girl years ago,her only fault is she tried to kill me 3 times,why you say Schizophrenia I say,even so she was hot. My sister also has it,the TV has spoken to her to and every now and the she goes of into her own world,just wanders off.
-_- SCHIZOPHRENIA XD only a fake schizophrenic would say schizophfrenia no offense. XD lol. if you really are a schizophrenic I feel your pain. its hard to be one at 11.... but im also an actress. so noooooboddyyyyyyy knows.... also, this video is pretty true, for any of you wondering.
and Im pretty good at hiding it, so that I can get into plays, because NOODY wants a schizophrenic in their plays, right? :( god the voices are so mean. I just want them to GO AWAY. it sucks... I feel your pain. I just remember THEY'RE NOT REAL.
I take saphris for my skitz and it really silences the voices. I had 3 voices in my head. They just sorta guided me through things. "Open the door. You should probably check on your girlfriend, she seems to been avoiding you lately. I don't know the answer to this problem, you're on your own. You should probably kick that guy's ass (to a school bully). Jesus Christ, what the fuck is wrong with you? Well, you fucked up, accept it. Why do people do so many drugs? There has to be a reason. Coke seems like a good start, you need to find someone, though... You don't need to sleep now, there's something you have to do. I know you're hungry, but don't eat. You look like a fat bastard anyway, cut off the pounds. What are you doing sitting around? Get up." I thought it was just normal thoughts and crap and I had an overreactive imagination. I told my doctor that I usually pretend to hear voices in my head to solve everyday problems. I explained to her what it's like and she labeled me schizophrenic. I honestly thought she was full of shit. I took the meds because she said I'd wind up in the mental hospital if I didn't comply. Well, fuck you too. After a few hours of dissolving the tablet under my tongue (Yes, that's how you take them. They're bitter and make your tastebuds numb). I started doing my daily routine. I was studying my veterinarian textbook when I noticed the clock ticking. I waited, expecting to hear them make a comment on the silence, but I didn't hear anything. I thought Ha ha, Placebo effect. Okay, I'll try to talk to them. I focused hard but I didn't hear anything. It was very strange. It was so silent and it felt weird. So I tried to force myself to hear the voices. Nothing registered at all. Alright, I just WON'T take this medicine and see if they come back. So, the next night I skipped talking the tablet and I just went on doing my daily chores. I didn't even notice they came back when they did, but I realized it later when they pointed it out. I contemplated if I should start talking the tablets again and they told me I should. "No no no no no. Take them. Don't drag yourself to a mental hospital. Do you know how they treat people in there? No. Take them. Don't tell anyone, don't mention it to anyone, they might test your blood. Some people hate skitzos. You've heard about them, right? Just take the pills and move on. I won't go away forever. When you stop taking the tabs I'll come back." So I kept taking my meds from then on. Once and a while, I can feel them talking but I can't understand what they're saying at all. It's sort or a numbed mumbling feeling.
It's the same way for me, except I only have one voice. I have tried several antipsychotic medications, but most did nothing for me, and the ones that helped stopped working after about a week. I have grown accustomed to it, for the most part. When the medication worked and the voice stopped, it was a strange feeling. Even though the negative commentary going on in my head was finally gone, it made me feel "lonely" in a way.
'I was screaming down the phone, it's the rain it's the rain! Anyway, why are you inside in the dark? It's a beautiful day! *reveals beautiful day*' She's hardly helping with these mixed messages!
Hi! I'm your helpful facilitator from the Jansen corporation. Perhaps you have anxiety, here have a pill. If it works for you my friendly colleagues will set you up with direct deposit so you can have a lifetime supply. If you made it through to the end of this video you'd see all mentally ill people need is drugs, sunlight and someone to talk down to them.
I have been diagnosed with acute schizophrenia,not only did this video trigger an anxiety attack and an episode it is very real compared to what I hear and the feelings I have to deal with everyday. I have an above average job and go to college but sometimes I feel like taking my own life is the only way to be at peace.
I have symptoms of this, I do not have schizophrenia myself but I do get hallucinations and delusions sometimes. This video was really accurate at some parts, like when they kept saying to not open the door. I really didn't like the lady at the end, she seemed really patronizing and dismissive of the person. And the episode ended really abruptly, usually it's the worst when people you trust come and you can't trust them because they're part of it too. Then you feel guilty, but also terrified of people you trust the most.
Man...that's fuckin' terrifying. Like I saw the video (scary af) and then I was curious to see if people really go through this, so I started reading comments...I really didn't think it could be that bad. I sincerely hope every one of you can one day be alright. My heart goes out to all of you. Stay strong
My friend has schizophrenia and apparently hears bill cosbys voice narrating his life and occasionally I find him just cracking up to himself and saying "shut up bill!"
I have Two female voices, One spanish and One american but they're not outside they're inside my head and force me to think weird shit. As for visuals i see things move by their own, men in hats and suits, little girls, cats, rats and sometimes i see dolls turn into humans. But it's not schizophrenia is it?
Alexis Launier i know. but other diseases make you hallucinate too. some friends (one of them even has schizophrenia herself) said i should look for medical help because "it isn't sane at all"
Sounds like schizophrenia :( If it's been ongoing, it is probably schizophrenia. Psychotic symptoms like hallucinations can present with other disorders, like bipolar personality disorder and PTSD, but these psychotic episodes don't usually last more than a couple of days. If you've been experiencing ongoing auditory and visual hallucinations, I'd see a doctor. Although you've probably done that lol
I work at a mental health clinic, and I can assure that sadly mental health is a very real thing. Yes, some people do abuse the system to get the few benefits out there for the folks with mental illness, but the things I have seen, I can tell it is a very real issue. I see clients on meds and then see them off meds and they are completely different people. It is sad to think that a lot of the people that suffer from this illness were at one point the best and the brightest, and this illness strips them of all of it, some times to the point that they are unable to care for themselves much less their children or families. Please educate yourself. It is people like you that make it hard for the mental health field to get the recognition that it deserves and so badly needs.
this, sorta seemed normal except the visuals. afraid of every person, every creature, every object. All news is bad news, you can't find a way out, you want to argue with your mind but you know that's when people are insane and you don't want to feel crazy. no values, no acceptance, only fear, doubt and guilt. idk if that makes me crazy or if this videos was off but either way, why am I telling you this, who's gonna read this? Have a good day.
This isn't a good representation of paranoid schizophrenia at all and not even close to a psychosis. This is a simulation of possible auditory hallucinations to be believed a schizophrenic has, however is not depicted properly. This video doesn't and can't show the experiences of delusions, the sense of feeling that a psychosis would have. This video also doesn't depict hallucinations to well either, these voices being heard consistently as put downs isn't the whole chunk of schizo disorders. Actually a small portion to be honest. Look at John Nash, He was a brilliant mathematician. Mathematics involves thought processing, the ability to perceive something and render your own conclusion, like a delusion. If you want to actually understand schizophrenia don't watch this garbage. Think of schizophrenia more as a thought processing disorder, a perceived illusion on reality , delusions, audio/visual hallucinations, a spiritual augmented experience where your mind is one with the world not heard or seen. (That's a good way to describe it). Did you know if you ask any mental health practitioner they will tell you that schizophrenia has positive and negative symptoms. It's true. I can name every other disorder and disease on this whole planet and there is 100% nothing positive about them at all. Schizophrenia is different. And above all you either know what it is or you don't. This video is someones rendition, based on maybe, I don't know someones brief text book knowledge about this disorder. It's a genetic disorder. I'm schizophrenic and I don't relate to this video, however I am also very high functioning.
My question is: Can the mind generate new voices, uknown till that time? And why the concept usually is: "You are worthless, stupid, they know who you are" or "kill him - her" ?
Schizophrenia is usually much worse than this, my aunt works with people with mental disorders and schizophrenics. Her patients complain about seeing twisted figures that nobody else sees. And the figures tell them to do really really screwed up things. And the figures threaten them if they dont do what they say. And in severe cases the person can do what they say without them even knowing, like for example a voice says to them strangle your sister and the person could unconsiously strangle his or her sister without control. But this is with very severe cases
I do suffer from this but it's never been quite that bad for me, usually the voices come and go, the hallucinations tend to be subtle like the bubble in the coffee not hallucinating entire thunder storms. I think watching tv it's only happened a few times where I was being talked to directly by the people on it. The voices aren't always mean or just comment on what's going on, they sometimes give advice or talk about completely unrelated things the problem is they are distracting.
This is exactly what its like, i know, ive had had schizophrenia for 10 years and now over it, and the voices and visions finally went away, with support from my wife and kids, medicine never did anything.
I have schizophrenia but a mild case of it. Not fun stuff.. I hear chattering In my head consistently and most of the time it tells me false things about myself. with the right meds I'm good to go! But when I forget to take your meds I have delusions and the voice gets louder. When she said "they know about you" it hit right home haha. The best way to describe it is like this. You're driving with your mind but you can always wreck if you're not careful.
That ending always warms my heart, for real, I feel like someone in the world understands and supports me. The thing with schizophrenia is that all the people who’ve been diagnosed with that were raised in a completely dysfunctional, toxic and betraying families, that rather want to enslave and destroy you rather than love and support, as I was raised in. I haven’t had a schizophrenia, but I was diagnosed with: -anxiety-depressive disorder -mixed type identity disorder -dissociative identity disorder I also had undiagnosed neurosis with mentisms (google it, it’s one of the most mentally painful symptoms in the world, one that all schizophrenics have in the acute phase and without medications) and some kind of psychosis. When I just got from the asylum, my psychopathic mother started to employing me at the job, when I still suffered from my disease (it was painful even more, and my hate was so high, I wanted to knife that bitch right in the hospital, where we were gathering documents for employment). Jeez, even when I write this comment, I feel anxious that my “mother” would read it. Schizophrenia does NOT has endogenic roots, it’s completely social disease, and whether or not an individual will get depends on how toxic and insane his family is and how much his brain can hold of it. I may be wrong, if someone who has a schizophrenia can say that their family was completely normal and never committed violence whether it’s psychological or physical, go ahead and write in the comments
"Why was that woman shouting "it's the rain, it's the rain"?" She wasn't. She was saying "It's Lorraine! It's Lorraine!" Schizophrenia causes audible hallucinations; that's why he heard static when she was yelling to him. The voices told him that she was saying "it's the rain."
***** First off, learn punctuation. Secondly, at 5:14, she said "I was screaming 'It's Lorraine! It's Lorraine!' into the phone at the top of my lungs." Thirdly, go back to your sandbox, because you're obviously a child.
I always told my doctors that I did not see things because I was under the impression that hallucinations were something other than what I saw. I see dark figures at night, very real and terrifying.
Sting Ray you should be ashamed for not recognizing gods existance, moron, because inside you dont want to believe, because god knows every thought of your mind and heart. look at the birds flowers trees yeah it all happened accidentally..
my girlfriend has schizophrenia and she is 12 hrs away from me, We call everyday and she has episodes while we are on call and she will start crying and I let her know that i am here for her and that If she wants to talk about anything that I will listen. she takes medicine but i wish there was more that i could do. The main issue is that the voices make her feel suicidal and she said that I help her, but my parents are not accepting of the relationship. We are not allowed to talk for the moment and I am worried about her.

Yeah, no. You don't.
its annoying as hell and you can never go back to being normal

probably lost his shit tbh.. thats pretty sCARY though
MiniArcana He could hurt her.
MiniArcana I would bug the fuck out!
I'm schizophrenic and it happens to me all the time, i hear my own version of 'music' and 'tv' also my own version of what people are saying to me
"It's all your fault"
Well I ordered the pizza, of course its my fault its here.
Actually, it was the girl at the end who ordered the pizza. If you listen carefully to the phone call, you'll hear her mention that she ordered a pizza.
Annie C.
Well maybe he just heard that also.
+Myrdred Deceiver Yeah but the lady also said she ordered the pizza at the end too
ariesfairies But the video is what its like to be schizophrenic so he might have just heard that as well.
Maybe he imagined that the girl in the end exists. Maybe he imagined that he even ordered or got pizza. Maybe he is even just imagining the whole world, when in reality nothing exists and its all his brain trying to occupy itself.
This.....is terrifying. I almost had to shut my laptop. Have mercy on any schizophrenic who has to deal with this on a daily basis. Bless their hearts.(:
schizophrenia really sucks for an 11 year old, who cant see her dad because HE has it so severe too. its just like this in real life. sso on tpo of the schizophrenia, I don't see my dad. this totally sucks :( im good at hiding it from my friends. but I tell people who have an interest in the disorder. thank you for the wonderful comment. lifts my spirits
FlyingPurpleCamels Oh I'm sorry about your dad. And you are very welcome. (:
thanks
and btw, we ont really have to deal with this on a daily basis, this is just a VERY intense psychotic episode
well... maybe not that intense XD
My best friend is schizophrenic. His dad has it and so does his brother. One time he was telling me a story that on a long road trip home from college one weekend he managed to convince himself that he had ran somebody over but forgot and spent the whole night driving and looking for a body. Apparently darkness and driving were bad triggers for him because they really put yourself inside of your own head.
R K now that's trippy
Scary
That isn’t schizophrenia
What you just described sounds more like he’s OCD where one of the symptoms is that the mind is flooded with persistent thoughts. So your friend was persistently thinking that he ran someone over.
But your friend might have schizophrenia. If a diagnosis was already made then go with it
The person in the video must be 8ft tall.
Or have a camera grafted to their skull.... cuz who the hell just puts a camera on top of their head. Go hard or go home, right?
XD
oh the wonders of a fisheye lens
Very nice and pretty accurate simulation. However, at the end, when the caregiver comes in (wife, family member, whatever, obviously still a caregiver), all his symptoms seem to subside, and he seems to trust her. But in a patient having a psychotic episode or break, especially with paranoid delusions, his symptoms wouldn't go away upon seeing a caregiver, someone meaning him well. The voices would tell him that she's part of the plot, that she's "in on it", that she can't be trusted. They'd say, " SHE ordered the pizza! She's trying to poison you!" etc.
Yeah a legit schizophrenic would have attacked the caretaker.
bigjew899 Not necessarily, most will take in what they experience with caution and not make any rash moves.
bigjew899 The vast majority of schizophrenics are not violent.
Exactly. My girlfriend had a psychotic break and I can attest to this. Her episode lasted 3 days and those were the scariest days of my life.
Marasma101 Sounds terrible. Hope she's better.
Don't be misled, everybody. Not all schizophrenia is this severe. Some schizophrenia is very mild and only requires medication, if any at all. Please don't discriminate schizophrenics because of things you see on TV or in movies. Reality is just as surprising as you may not think.
D-Parke this is about in the middle of the schizophrenia continuum...some people have it better and others have it much worse
I suspect I'm schizophrenic because I hear and see shit alot more than I should, like living moving things, it's not as bad as this video portrays it, which I'm glad for, but it's still not ideal
ALL patients diagnosed with schizophrenia require medication. ALL of them. Untreated schizophrenia is related to early morbidity
.
In clinical psych, a “mild” case is impossible cause the severity is too low to mess with functionality. People with mild schizophrenic symptoms can never be said to be suffering from schizophrenia. The case shown is in between mild and severe. The hallucinations in this video aren’t that prevalent. Some people hallucinate whole lovers, it depends on the case.
It's good advice you're giving. One should not jump to any conclusions based on one video.

Newecreator This is indeed very common if you read musicophilia by Oliver sacks he actually describes it, it's nothing to worry about. I happen to hear my iPhone ringing while the dishwasher is on frequently, it's the strangest thing.
Could you imagine, you take off your headphones and the voices don't stop.
yo, now i can't take that off my head, THANKS
This comment was posted 4 years ago but funny story when I'm playing a game I listen to RUclips (Mutahar or Critikal). I started a video and began to play I soon looked at my phone because the video wasn't loud enough and it was a 0 and I could hear it. I was pretty spooked.
That's happened to me when I used to binge drink. I would get all sick and hear voices like my girlfriend talking shit about me when she wasn't even talking and other creepy shit just like this except more like whispers when it was random voices.. Good thing it went away after a few days of being sober. That's why I quit drinking.
@@GrungeHead47 You're lucky it wasn't permanent my dude. That must have been terrifying to begin with, and so relieving that they went away.
@@odinharou7112 Yeah dude it's weird cause it sounds so real most the time. Like it's not like demons and stuff it's hearing actual people but it sounds like it's coming from the other room so you think it's real. My girl would be in the other room with her brother and it would just sound like muffled chatter as if they were really talking so it messes with your head rather than just hearing creepy stuff that's obviously fake. And I would be at my house and hear the kind of noises from her house like she has birds that make a specific sounding whistle that you always hear in the morning so I'd wake up hearing that in the morning and be confused for a second thinking I was still at her house. It gets annoying too hearing stuff when you're trying to just zone out in a movie or video game.
Horror films must seem pretty tame for schizophrenics.
Acedia Tristitia Your joking. I thought they would be effected by them in very severe ways.
chavrons1 well i mean what they go through day to day is so fucked up, a horror film must be a cakewalk, but i know what you mean, that they might think the fiction happening on screen is reality.
Ah i see what you mean. Must be terrible for some.
Acedia Tristitia i can stay horror flims make are delusions worse and more scary but horror flims arent that scary but they can mess with your psychosis alot
IhaveParanoidSchizophrenia right, so horror films aren't that scary in and of themselves, but they can contribute to your psychosis and make it worse, interesting, thanks for sharing. can you watch a horror film without it effecting your psychosis? i guess there are certain times when you're more level headed than others, even when you're not on medication, or can you only watch them on meds?
The voices sound like my parents. No joke.
That's a problem
That's a problem
The male voice sounds like Kevin Conroy / Batman.

LMAO 😂 oh my
Yeah but they were clever about it.
The pizza icon like little ceasar. Always mocking.
My heart goes out to all those suffering from this condition. I don't like that is called a disease, disease implies that you are dirty contagious and should be avoided. I like the term disorder more. While I know some say This isn't accurate, this is very eye opening. We need more schizophrenia awareness
im a schizophrenic (yes, at 11 it totally sucks :( and this video i'd say is pretty accurate. the voices... well, yes they're pretty negative and you just wanna talk back to them, but I don't... but the video is pretty true for any of you wondering, and yes, like it said at the beginning, no case is typical. sooo just letting anyone know who was wondering. :(
FlyingPurpleCamels 15 year old schizophrenic here truly a struggle hope all goes well for you
PokemonFTW I'm eighteen and have been dealing with this disorder for longer than I can remember..they weren't always so negative..but they ended up that way..I hope you and the purple camel kid can soon learn to control them better..I was anorexic for awhile because of them and others around me. Stay strong kids.
Well the brain afflicted with schizophrenia is physically and structurally different than one without. So calling it a disease is appropriate.
Anonymous Questioner it's not a disease it's a disorder
I'm sorry for anybody unfortunate enough to have to deal with this kind of thing
That IS scary! I pray for healing for all who has this disease.
It's not a disease. Wtf
Richard Garrett Yes. it's a mental disease but it's caused by Satan. I have seen how these demons enter the BRAINS of people. It is TERRIFYING! Witch doctors and voodoo worshipers actually SPEAK CURSES and SEND DEMONS that enter these people brains.
+HaveYouHeard www.MagHog.com this... it's the saddest comment I've seen all day...
+HaveYouHeard www.MagHog.com you have schizophrenia bro and deal with it
Mizuiro Sora I don't have Shiz. Glad to disappoint you. Also, hearing voices are NO LONGER just linked to Schiz. They are the underlining results of despair, deep sorrow, disappointment, and major forms of trauma. You should educate yourself before speaking. Also, there is a such thing as spiritual gifts from God which allows you to see demons and spirits and angels and all sorts of celestial as well as demonic things. I know you wish you could see Satan while he's in the mist of destroying you, so you can have the upper hand and beat him at his game. Also, witchcraft and voodoo is a result of hearing voices as well. Being able to detect those too are great. Many reasons to hearing voices. Don't be so quick to assume things. Educate yourself some before speaking judgments without facts to help you judge properly.
Given the amount of times I've gotten food poisoning from pizza places, I'd say this guy's voices were doing him a favour.

I just noticed that thank you
it sicks me out how people take this sickness as a joke... humanity discuss me
discuss or disgust? it's a joke to people because they have no idea how someone could be afraid of their own mind
I think it's where schizophrenia people aren't really happy to be alive like some people. It's a state of taking many things for granted then the mind finding ways to invent bullshit then it run out-of-control.
When people are happy to be alive there is no way they can think like this. The only thing that would hurt them would be anger. Easiest way to not become mental, happiest and cheapest route to maintain, but also the financially poorest usually.
It's impossible for them to even comprehend the horrors of living with a psychotic mental illness like schizophrenia
Anthony Abelardo i meant disgust sorry my english... it's not my native language...
i agree with your point of view... in these days the word "empathize" it's so over used that its meaning is already lost... it is a shame
warenxitta I think giving a thought about people thinking it's a joke is a waste of time.
Max how about you stop saying or I will report you Cause once you have the illness then it feels like hell but i don't have it but I feel for the people going through it so you better do your research before speaking OK.☺☺☺😒😐😐😐😑😑😑
What's the difference between "hearing voices" and trying to manage your own internal monologue, self doubts and insecurities that we all have. I can't imagine having voices like this. Fucking scary.
Liam David I'm curious about this as well like I definitely have an internal monologue I feel like we all do. I wonder if the voices people with this difficulty hear sound like regular voices because that must be very frightening. Blessings to anyone who is struggling with this, I'm learning more about it because I recognized I didn't understand it very well and made some bad assumptions.
Liam David I've heard voices before, the thing is we have control over our internal monologue, when you hear voices it's like someone's talking to you who isn't there. They can sound external or they can echo in your head. When it first happened i didn't really think much of it but when reality set in i freaked out...
Your voices move out, the other ones move in..
The difference is the intensity of the stimulus. In healthy brains, a function exists to ensure that the brain can always tell the difference between real stimulus (stimulus caused by external sources) and imagined stimulus (stimulus created by our own minds). When we sleep, since there are no significant changes in stimulus from the external world, our brains ignore it all, only subconsciously paying attention to it, this leaves only internally created stimulus, and so it takes over and becomes the person's entire experience. This is called dreaming, and when I say experience, I mean experience. There is absolutely no difference between imagined stimulus and received stimulus. Stimulus is stimulus. The (healthy) brain naturally focuses on real stimulus much more than on imagined stimulus (imagined simply means recalled and recreated by the brain itself), creating the illusion that dreams are inherently unlifelike and simply feel weak, when that's impossible. Daydreams are, since our brains are naturally focusing on the real stimulus more making the imagined stimulus seem weak in comparison, but when you're asleep, there's not of that. You're just inside your own mind. In schizophrenic brains, there is no such function. The brain can't differentiate between externally received stimulus and imagined stimulus, so they're all equally prioritized. In other words, your inner monologue would be as intense as someone actually speaking to you. Let me reiterate; talking to yourself through mental projections within itself is NOT crazy; we all do it every night in dreams, and it's a healthy and essential process, but being unable to distinguish between imagined and real perceptions is. Hope this helped.
It’s different from thoughts. Thoughts you hear in your mind, but the voices or auditory hallucinations you can hear like it’s in the room with you. That’s my experience with my audio hallucinations. Also, you can’t control the sounds like you can with thoughts. My thoughts are in my voice, but one thing I hear sometimes is a dog growling, sniffing, nails walking across the tile. I don’t have a dog. Ugh
So many people are unaware of the pain and depression that come with mental disorders. They think that it's just something you have and you should deal with it. But it's never that easy. I don't have schizophrenia, but I do have OCD, and as awful as OCD can be, I can't imagine schizophrenia. My heart goes out to those who do suffer from it.
We really shouldn't kill the ants you know, they watch us do it, they know what we really are, they will turn the same back on us.

This is what i feel like when I smoke too much weed.
lmaoo. when i was 14/15 and i had just started smoking i used to get the same way. i think they're called "terrors" or something of the sort. I'd get suuuper paranoid and freaked out. I'd literally be o the ground in a fetal position just wishing i wasn't "high" anymore. of course most of that was just because i didnt know what to expect really from smoking pot so my mind was basically creating problems stemming from my anxiety. after a few times though i fell in love with the shit lmao
then why smoke weed at all??
weed actually has a connection to schizophrenia
ceeloc you're so cool you smoke weed
TiFFerzZehNiNjA no it doesn't
My doctor told me I have an unusual type of schizophrenia, because I was diagnosed at 15 and my hallucinations are constant and invasive, as they are mostly felt and seen. I could feel being sexually abused by demons, and I could touch and smell blood flowing down my walls. I obviously hear things too, mostly sexual or murder related stuff. I had brief catatonia experiences too.

My mom is schizophrenic and most of what she does is cussing out strangers and telling them their future, a lot of the time starts hysterically laughing out of nowhere, opening the window and screaming at the voices in the cars speaking to her, lying in the road because god told her to, running into the train tracks without her clothes on and screaming at bicyclists, all kinds of stuff. It's excruciatingly hard for the family to live with as I can't explain the half of it, but I never actually realized how much schizophrenics must already be going through when they have to suffer this kind of a daily life, and on top of that all of the discrimination and trash they get. Thanks for this video, kind of gave me a better idea of things.

I have depression. Shouldn't have watched this. Damn.
Me too...cried for an hour afterwards. I know I just have depression and not schizophrenia but it was still incredibly terrifying and personal : \
I know right? I'm getting the feeling that I could be in the early stages of schizophrenia now.
Katherine Pagan Not to be preachy, but you shouldn't minimize your experience by saying it's "just" depression. People who don't have a clue like to poke fun at depression like it's all just minor sadness and malingering: don't listen to them. Depression can be a very serious problem. There's always somebody out there who has it worse off than you, and somebody who has it better off than you-but you're the one who has to live your own life, so take your own problems seriously and get help if you need it.
Nah I'd rather let mine get worse and I know it's serious
Sarah, thanks for being concerned. I am currently in therapy and I'm getting treatment. However---I guess this is just the nature of depression---I still have trouble insisting that people consider it a disease, when even I so often feel like I'm just whining. But I really do appreciate you being concerned---it means a lot : )
Wow that is very scary. Now I'm paranoid that it will happen to me. I feel so bad for these people.
I have a lot of respect for those living their daily lives with schizophrenia! Personally, as a student nurse in the psych ward, I would not be able to live like this! I have no idea how they can even interact with other people with voices flowing in their brains!
I am diagnosed with OCD and Bipolar 1. I have had psychotic breaks with my illness before. Knowing fully of this, one night I decided to smoke some pot with some of my homies. The night before, I forgot my medication. After a couple hits, I was feeling good. But, after a couple moments, I noticed my friends began to insult me. At first, I figured they were just joking around, so I laughed it off. Almost 30 minutes later, they were continuing to berate and harass me. I became frightened, thinking one of them was about to strike me. I hit him. Next thing I know, I'm being held down, with no idea how it happened, and they were telling me to calm down. I get up, and apologize. But, they continued their bullshit. At this point, I was desperate to get them to stop. Then it struck me. They weren't doing anything to me. I realized I hadn't taken my meds, and it was probably another psychotic break that was occurring. I was able to leave the room, and sleep. When I woke up the next morning, everything was back to normal, although my friends were not too happy with my behavior the night before. What I'm wondering is, if I was able to think through my psychosis, and realize it was in fact MY delusional thinking, are some schizophrenics able to do this as well?
Oh wow that is scary.
My heart breaks for how shallow the world is sometimes. The other day, I overheard a girl say "OMG homeless people are so CREEEEEPYYYYY". A lot of homeless people are schizophrenic and/or have other mental conditions that don't allow them to keep a job/home/"normal" societal life. It's not fucking "creepy", it's an extremely sad, heartbreaking epidemic that needs serious attention. If someone in that girl's family had a serious mental incapacity/disorder, she wouldn't be talking all that shallow, narrow minded bullshit. People need to take a step outside of their own narrow scope of existence and see that others around them are suffering from horrific plights. All it takes is an effort towards love and compassion, rather than giving into the fear of things unknown.
GOD bless you
One of many reason's why i hope this world burns, theres no hope for this damn planet.
I have early-onset schizophrenia, and this is what life is like for me. Very accurate.
***** How do you cope with it?
+aimcrazed Have you tried Dr. Hoffers Niacin Therapy? Try taking 500-4500mg of Vitamin B3 along with 5g omega-3 fish oil.
+bastyo take your homeopathy somewhere else please
TheAnyKey This has nothing to do with homeopathy. Homeopathy is nonsense in my opinion.It is scientifically proven that schizophrenics are NAD+ deficient, which is made from Vitamin B3. Thus high doses of it are very helpful. The conversion from B3 to NAD+ is enzyme-dependent, but in some people these enzymes are not working properly, due to genetics. High doses make up for these enzyme defects. The omega-3's are important for myelination, another important process known to not be working properly in schizophrenics.Take your closed-mindedness somewhere else please.
Kerry no it can not
I found out my sister may have schizophrenia. I feel so sorry for her after watching this. I got so freaking scared.
My sister is in psychosis. She isn't capable of any contact. She Just stares at the wall and laughs by herself and doesn't anwser on anything i say. I don't know what to do.
Well, from what I understand, there are many types of schizophrenia. So, the severity may differ on what type. That's just what I think, let me know if I am wrong.
My sister also have this schizophrenia
What kind drugs your sis she take bro
DahProGamers Please don't feel sorry for her. Just try to help her, let her know you're there for her no matter what. It helps tremendously to have loving family and friends who you can be sure to trust.
Trust is what it's all about. It's like an anchor to the real world, because when it happens the trust for the world falls away and all that's left is you and the small amount of certainties you have left. Become a certainty for her.

Why can't the voices be friendly for once. Jeez. Everything bad. Are there cases where the voices actually MOTIVATE or PRAISE you? Wouldn't that be the awesome? Why just all the bad stuff? It is puzzling.
I'm not making fun, I'm just wondering why is it so... against you. Why not the opposite? Its just not random - it is mostly negative stuff.
+Xspy70 In places where mental disorders aren't demonized like the western world does, it is reported that that in some cases the voices and visuals are seen as friends and they couldn't imagine a better life without them. It'd be lonely. This condition isn't the same for everyone.

For me it is like my childhood imaginary friends stayed with me. I have learned many many ways to cope and little rules for my mental diet etc. I have had episodes like this video. it got real bad over a particular summer where i had delusions that i could hear my neighbor's negative thoughts about me. *ha* eventually i straight up faced the voice demon and said.why is it that you need be to believe i am so bad. Don't you know i would have to be perfect to be that horrible. anyway my daily voice....is indeed as if a friend and personification of my own thought process. And we do not allow ourself the foolishness of rounds of self hate....just wish i could help others see thru it. We all have wonderful worlds within ourselves.

as a diagnosed paranoid schizo I'd say this is somewhat close to what its like, however for me the voices are outside or like if I'm at the grocery store they'll be in another isle it is 2 voices male and female talking about me constantly but what they say don't really affect what I'm doing, they are just annoying and make it feel like someones always watching me
That person is you. The voices are echoes of you manipulating yourself and sending frequency across your body.
My boyfriends in the same situation. And I kinda feel like that
I need a woman like he has. He's lucky. He's having a chance. I need someone like this
Try making an account on the website meetme it has helped me and my friends alot, just don't get catfished.
+Jake Conway fuck that app. full of hoes
ZEPViK exactly B)
Pretty sure that is his carer
The point is that she is so cheery, so unaware of the complete terror he is experiencing that a person might not be able to get the treatment or understanding that they need.
It's really scary.. No human deserves to suffer from this disease
Man I can't stand a few people talking at once...I can see how it would drive someone insane...I can't/don't want to imagine going through this on a daily basis.
This would have to be terrifying to live with. I had nightmares just from watching this video.
It must take a lot of strength to live your life with a disease like this.
It is terrifying. My mom is diagnosed with this and it is probably the hardest ordeal experience of my life. This caused my parents divorce. My sister pretty much raised me. I didn't have a childhood because of having to always take care of my mom. A lot of people take their mothers for granted I would love to have just an ordinary conversation with my mom.
Haha the scowling pissed off pizza box guy was kinda funny.
"Don't open the door!" and "He has to open the door!" being voiced by the same is the most accurate part.. God help my friends still there.
Well I got schitzofrenia. And I remember when the TV spoke to me to.. couldent tell if they really said things about me or that it was just "hallucinations".. it begins to shift your consiousness into believeing your the only one in universe and that everything is an illusion when the TV is starting speaking directly to you. I have been medicated for 2 years now... and I believe in some sens it was good for me. This was pretty scary for me to watch..... brings back memories
I went out with this beautiful young girl years ago,her only fault is she tried to kill me 3 times,why you say Schizophrenia I say,even so she was hot. My sister also has it,the TV has spoken to her to and every now and the she goes of into her own world,just wanders off.
-_- SCHIZOPHRENIA XD only a fake schizophrenic would say schizophfrenia no offense. XD lol. if you really are a schizophrenic I feel your pain. its hard to be one at 11.... but im also an actress. so noooooboddyyyyyyy knows.... also, this video is pretty true, for any of you wondering.
and Im pretty good at hiding it, so that I can get into plays, because NOODY wants a schizophrenic in their plays, right? :( god the voices are so mean. I just want them to GO AWAY. it sucks... I feel your pain. I just remember THEY'RE NOT REAL.
fdsfsd
Me?
I take saphris for my skitz and it really silences the voices. I had 3 voices in my head. They just sorta guided me through things.
"Open the door. You should probably check on your girlfriend, she seems to been avoiding you lately. I don't know the answer to this problem, you're on your own. You should probably kick that guy's ass (to a school bully). Jesus Christ, what the fuck is wrong with you? Well, you fucked up, accept it. Why do people do so many drugs? There has to be a reason. Coke seems like a good start, you need to find someone, though... You don't need to sleep now, there's something you have to do. I know you're hungry, but don't eat. You look like a fat bastard anyway, cut off the pounds. What are you doing sitting around? Get up."
I thought it was just normal thoughts and crap and I had an overreactive imagination. I told my doctor that I usually pretend to hear voices in my head to solve everyday problems. I explained to her what it's like and she labeled me schizophrenic. I honestly thought she was full of shit. I took the meds because she said I'd wind up in the mental hospital if I didn't comply. Well, fuck you too. After a few hours of dissolving the tablet under my tongue (Yes, that's how you take them. They're bitter and make your tastebuds numb). I started doing my daily routine. I was studying my veterinarian textbook when I noticed the clock ticking. I waited, expecting to hear them make a comment on the silence, but I didn't hear anything.
I thought Ha ha, Placebo effect. Okay, I'll try to talk to them. I focused hard but I didn't hear anything. It was very strange. It was so silent and it felt weird. So I tried to force myself to hear the voices. Nothing registered at all. Alright, I just WON'T take this medicine and see if they come back. So, the next night I skipped talking the tablet and I just went on doing my daily chores. I didn't even notice they came back when they did, but I realized it later when they pointed it out. I contemplated if I should start talking the tablets again and they told me I should.
"No no no no no. Take them. Don't drag yourself to a mental hospital. Do you know how they treat people in there? No. Take them. Don't tell anyone, don't mention it to anyone, they might test your blood. Some people hate skitzos. You've heard about them, right? Just take the pills and move on. I won't go away forever. When you stop taking the tabs I'll come back."
So I kept taking my meds from then on.
Once and a while, I can feel them talking but I can't understand what they're saying at all. It's sort or a numbed mumbling feeling.
uhm
was it actually so bad to hear voices?
urs sound kinda helpful :P
That is such an interesting story thanks for sharing =)
How do you feel now, that you are taking them?
It's the same way for me, except I only have one voice. I have tried several antipsychotic medications, but most did nothing for me, and the ones that helped stopped working after about a week. I have grown accustomed to it, for the most part. When the medication worked and the voice stopped, it was a strange feeling. Even though the negative commentary going on in my head was finally gone, it made me feel "lonely" in a way.
thanks for sharing!
'I was screaming down the phone, it's the rain it's the rain! Anyway, why are you inside in the dark? It's a beautiful day! *reveals beautiful day*' She's hardly helping with these mixed messages!
sooo this is how my friend lives? thats scary....
I'm having discomfort during one of the events. How do I signal a facilitator?
Hi! I'm your helpful facilitator from the Jansen corporation. Perhaps you have anxiety, here have a pill. If it works for you my friendly colleagues will set you up with direct deposit so you can have a lifetime supply. If you made it through to the end of this video you'd see all mentally ill people need is drugs, sunlight and someone to talk down to them.
Thank you so much for this comment, st0nedg0at.
FairyGardens TV can you help me?
In Jesus's name be Healed and free now.
PPL WITH SCHIZOPHRENIA DON'T THINK THEY ARE THEIR INTERNAL VOICE ...
I live like this and its always my voice. I don't know what to do about it.
I have been diagnosed with acute schizophrenia,not only did this video trigger an anxiety attack and an episode it is very real compared to what I hear and the feelings I have to deal with everyday. I have an above average job and go to college but sometimes I feel like taking my own life is the only way to be at peace.
2:53-2:56. Theres a roach crawling on the counter.
I saw that too!!!
maybe a mouse, it was too bif
I have symptoms of this, I do not have schizophrenia myself but I do get hallucinations and delusions sometimes. This video was really accurate at some parts, like when they kept saying to not open the door. I really didn't like the lady at the end, she seemed really patronizing and dismissive of the person. And the episode ended really abruptly, usually it's the worst when people you trust come and you can't trust them because they're part of it too. Then you feel guilty, but also terrified of people you trust the most.
Man...that's fuckin' terrifying. Like I saw the video (scary af) and then I was curious to see if people really go through this, so I started reading comments...I really didn't think it could be that bad. I sincerely hope every one of you can one day be alright. My heart goes out to all of you. Stay strong
imagine not even knowing what is real and what is fake, living hell, cant even trust your own sensations
My friend has schizophrenia and apparently hears bill cosbys voice narrating his life and occasionally I find him just cracking up to himself and saying "shut up bill!"
Imagine if you had schizophrenia but instead of voices it was moans
Like... sexually?
I have Two female voices, One spanish and One american but they're not outside they're inside my head and force me to think weird shit.
As for visuals i see things move by their own, men in hats and suits, little girls, cats, rats and sometimes i see dolls turn into humans.
But it's not schizophrenia is it?
It might be. They say people with schizophrenia will hallucinate.
Alexis Launier i know. but other diseases make you hallucinate too.
some friends (one of them even has schizophrenia herself) said i should look for medical help because "it isn't sane at all"
Oh ok
Sounds like schizophrenia :( If it's been ongoing, it is probably schizophrenia. Psychotic symptoms like hallucinations can present with other disorders, like bipolar personality disorder and PTSD, but these psychotic episodes don't usually last more than a couple of days. If you've been experiencing ongoing auditory and visual hallucinations, I'd see a doctor. Although you've probably done that lol
Cee Bee it's been ongoing since i can remember, thank you for caring :D
i will save up money to go to a doctor
"Especially when you're lazy and you eat too much... Stop staring at me." Lol
I work at a mental health clinic, and I can assure that sadly mental health is a very real thing. Yes, some people do abuse the system to get the few benefits out there for the folks with mental illness, but the things I have seen, I can tell it is a very real issue. I see clients on meds and then see them off meds and they are completely different people. It is sad to think that a lot of the people that suffer from this illness were at one point the best and the brightest, and this illness strips them of all of it, some times to the point that they are unable to care for themselves much less their children or families. Please educate yourself. It is people like you that make it hard for the mental health field to get the recognition that it deserves and so badly needs.
It's very scary, I couldn't finish
so the voices are pretty much a bunch of captain obvious?
+Rayhan Dwiputra savage
No, the voices are probably similar to what your parents tell you every day
a damn banjo you racist
randy Orton is schizophrenic
no
I hear voices in my head
They talk to me they understand
They talk to me
*Ques music*
the akward moment when even a crazy insane guy has a loving partner to care for him and love him
First of all it’s a bit rude to say he’s crazy..it’s a disorder. I’m not hating just saying.
this is like
if all my bad thoughts were suddenly self aware and cognizant and form their own opinions and shit
Why does one of the voices sound like H. Jon Benjamin?
i suffer from this.. pretty accurate of my psychotic episodes. brought tears to my eyes when the voices started.
schizophrenia is going to kill me. it's hopeless.
Владимир-сын путина- Пост hes deaf
this, sorta seemed normal except the visuals. afraid of every person, every creature, every object. All news is bad news, you can't find a way out, you want to argue with your mind but you know that's when people are insane and you don't want to feel crazy. no values, no acceptance, only fear, doubt and guilt. idk if that makes me crazy or if this videos was off but either way, why am I telling you this, who's gonna read this? Have a good day.
i read it
Thank you
lil magic your welcome
lil magic
Bad news
you're crazy
Hmm. 10pm? Scared?
Check and check.
Why not watch this?
This isn't a good representation of paranoid schizophrenia at all and not even close to a psychosis. This is a simulation of possible auditory hallucinations to be believed a schizophrenic has, however is not depicted properly. This video doesn't and can't show the experiences of delusions, the sense of feeling that a psychosis would have. This video also doesn't depict hallucinations to well either, these voices being heard consistently as put downs isn't the whole chunk of schizo disorders. Actually a small portion to be honest. Look at John Nash, He was a brilliant mathematician. Mathematics involves thought processing, the ability to perceive something and render your own conclusion, like a delusion. If you want to actually understand schizophrenia don't watch this garbage. Think of schizophrenia more as a thought processing disorder, a perceived illusion on reality , delusions, audio/visual hallucinations, a spiritual augmented experience where your mind is one with the world not heard or seen. (That's a good way to describe it). Did you know if you ask any mental health practitioner they will tell you that schizophrenia has positive and negative symptoms. It's true. I can name every other disorder and disease on this whole planet and there is 100% nothing positive about them at all. Schizophrenia is different. And above all you either know what it is or you don't. This video is someones rendition, based on maybe, I don't know someones brief text book knowledge about this disorder. It's a genetic disorder. I'm schizophrenic and I don't relate to this video, however I am also very high functioning.
I play five nights at freddies to much... The window, I expected a jump scare lol
It would be bad ass to hear voices in see illusions i pay for drugs to do these things! Lol jk but all seriousness i feel bad for people with skitz
If you don't like this, don't take too much benadryl. Lmao.
sikk cops Learned that the hard way lol
I liked how "poison" was in Italian.
My question is: Can the mind generate new voices, uknown till that time? And why the concept usually is: "You are worthless, stupid, they know who you are" or "kill him - her" ?
I thought he was going to kick the pizza guys ass....
Schizophrenia is usually much worse than this, my aunt works with people with mental disorders and schizophrenics. Her patients complain about seeing twisted figures that nobody else sees. And the figures tell them to do really really screwed up things. And the figures threaten them if they dont do what they say. And in severe cases the person can do what they say without them even knowing, like for example a voice says to them strangle your sister and the person could unconsiously strangle his or her sister without control. But this is with very severe cases
I do suffer from this but it's never been quite that bad for me, usually the voices come and go, the hallucinations tend to be subtle like the bubble in the coffee not hallucinating entire thunder storms. I think watching tv it's only happened a few times where I was being talked to directly by the people on it. The voices aren't always mean or just comment on what's going on, they sometimes give advice or talk about completely unrelated things the problem is they are distracting.
My schizophrenia is actually worse than this video shows
This is exactly what its like, i know, ive had had schizophrenia for 10 years and now over it, and the voices and visions finally went away, with support from my wife and kids, medicine never did anything.
I have schizophrenia but a mild case of it. Not fun stuff.. I hear chattering In my head consistently and most of the time it tells me false things about myself. with the right meds I'm good to go! But when I forget to take your meds I have delusions and the voice gets louder. When she said "they know about you" it hit right home haha. The best way to describe it is like this. You're driving with your mind but you can always wreck if you're not careful.
You usually hear the voices coming from where? Outside right?
I have depression and anxiety but nothing that makes me hear or see things and stuff
I'm getting goosebumps from fear. I can't fathom hearing voices, scary sounds and probably seeing strange things for your entire life
lizard alien parasite demons basically
Im only 19 and it's so true
That ending always warms my heart, for real, I feel like someone in the world understands and supports me. The thing with schizophrenia is that all the people who’ve been diagnosed with that were raised in a completely dysfunctional, toxic and betraying families, that rather want to enslave and destroy you rather than love and support, as I was raised in. I haven’t had a schizophrenia, but I was diagnosed with:
-anxiety-depressive disorder
-mixed type identity disorder
-dissociative identity disorder
I also had undiagnosed neurosis with mentisms (google it, it’s one of the most mentally painful symptoms in the world, one that all schizophrenics have in the acute phase and without medications) and some kind of psychosis. When I just got from the asylum, my psychopathic mother started to employing me at the job, when I still suffered from my disease (it was painful even more, and my hate was so high, I wanted to knife that bitch right in the hospital, where we were gathering documents for employment). Jeez, even when I write this comment, I feel anxious that my “mother” would read it. Schizophrenia does NOT has endogenic roots, it’s completely social disease, and whether or not an individual will get depends on how toxic and insane his family is and how much his brain can hold of it. I may be wrong, if someone who has a schizophrenia can say that their family was completely normal and never committed violence whether it’s psychological or physical, go ahead and write in the comments
Why was that woman shouting "it's the rain, it's the rain"? it seems like a weird thing to do.
Because schizophrenics have incoherent trains of thought. Their thoughts and inner monologue and dialogue don't make any sense.
"Why was that woman shouting "it's the rain, it's the rain"?"
She wasn't. She was saying "It's Lorraine! It's Lorraine!" Schizophrenia causes audible hallucinations; that's why he heard static when she was yelling to him. The voices told him that she was saying "it's the rain."
***** First off, learn punctuation. Secondly, at 5:14, she said "I was screaming 'It's Lorraine! It's Lorraine!' into the phone at the top of my lungs." Thirdly, go back to your sandbox, because you're obviously a child.
***** The script from the company that made this video: www.mentalwellness.ca/print/video-mindstorm
I always told my doctors that I did not see things because I was under the impression that hallucinations were something other than what I saw. I see dark figures at night, very real and terrifying.
i know most health doctors would rule it out but there are demonic entitities sometimes the bible explains what the doctors cannot.
*****
if only there wasn't such cases that doctors and psychologists cannot explain, then you wouldn't be such bullshit
Corey Baker Level of reasoning = 0
To say there isn't a scientific explanation because a scientist has yet to find it, is nothing short of idiocy.
Jack Howard You know what? It's people like you that hold back progress and enlightenment. You should be ashamed for lacking critical thinking.
Sting Ray you should be ashamed for not recognizing gods existance, moron, because inside you dont want to believe, because god knows every thought of your mind and heart.
look at the birds flowers trees yeah it all happened accidentally..
my girlfriend has schizophrenia and she is 12 hrs away from me, We call everyday and she has episodes while we are on call and she will start crying and I let her know that i am here for her and that If she wants to talk about anything that I will listen. she takes medicine but i wish there was more that i could do. The main issue is that the voices make her feel suicidal and she said that I help her, but my parents are not accepting of the relationship. We are not allowed to talk for the moment and I am worried about her.
Its like the feeling when you turn the downstairs light off before you sprint up to bed except all the time.
