- SORRY-the camera quality is awful!
Just a quick update. I'm back in hospital after a (thankfully brief) psychotic episode.
I'll get through this. I've been through worse before. And will come out stronger no doubt.
Thanks for everything everyone.

Hi. You were at my school and I just want to say, I get what you were saying about being embarrassed. I have Trichotillomania (a condition where I pull out my hair) when I was 9, I ended up pulling out all my eyelashes. I tried to hide it from my mum by covering my eyes with my hands and other objects until it got too bad to not be noticed.
Now I pull out my scalp hair and I realize that I was pulling it out while you were speaking about mental health.
We are all with you and we all need to stand together and get through bad times and good.

No Jonny - thank you young man. I ended up in hospital after a suicide attempt in June 2016 and I battle with anxiety every day. Your work is invaluable. Hugs, Tony.
Sorry to hear you are not well and I hope you are feeling better very soon. You have been working so hard helping others and I guess that pressure has built up which combined with your lack of sleep has triggered the meltdown. As you say you are human, even though at times you seem super human! You are a wonderful inspirational guy and I hope you realise how much love there is for you and what you are doing. Take care of yourself and make the most of your unplanned break
You are a beautiful human who forgot to look after his wellbeing for a bit. Thank you for your honesty, sending love.
johnny, I am sorry you had a meltown and it has affected you so. i wish for ypur recovery. sending you a big hug. xxxxx
I'm really grateful that you still continue to post these videos because it's so great that you can share what's happening and helping others through this. Hope you pick yourself back up! ❤❤
I'm sorry to hear this, Jonny x Take care of yourself.
Good to see you are already on the road to recovery. Rest, recharge and refocus. Take care of yourself.
Praying for your speedy recovery, my man. Hope you get better soon. You are and continue to be a huge inspiration to a lot of people including myself. Rest up. You are in our prayers.
thanks for showing us its ok to be human. your bravery is a great example to others. you can keep going and get back on an even keel. your in the best place for now, get some rest and you'll soon be home again. x
I'm so sorry that you have had to go through this.
Please remember you are a strong and inspirational person to so many people and it's okay to relapse one in a while!
And to repeat what I have been told countless times "this too shall pass"
Sending positive thoughts xx
I'm so glad you have the courage to share about your MI experiences as they are happening. It takes a tremendous grit to be open and honest about the daily struggles we in the MI community experience daily. People need to see that no matter how "put together" we might seem at different points in time, we are all vulnerable to MI episodes. My heart and support go out to, and I wish that we could all be a source of mutual support for each other. Your videos and your perspectives ARE valuable, invaluable really to the rest of us MI people. You're a champion of MI justice, and never doubt that you are loved and that you are strong and that you are important to all of us. Thank you for everything you've done for us.
Stay strong Jonny. We are with you in these hard moments. You are being an example for a lot of people that are experiencing similar situations. Wish you will recover soon. Best regards,
Take care, please don't worry about camera angle or articulation. Your sincerity and courage shines through. Keep on shining.
Stay strong Jonny. You're still fighting the good fight, even while you're in hospital. Your a legend. Take care and time out to recover.
Johnny you're so strong and such an inspirational person to many. Don't let this get you down. We all know how strong and passionate you can be for what you believe in and it just means that sometimes things are compromised to achieve those dreams. All you can do is see this as a lesson learnt to think about yourself sometimes, it's not a bad thing to put yourself first. Also just know that we're all here for you whatever situation your in :)
Hugs you. There's no shame in seeking help. It's the best place for you right now. We love you and are here for you. Rest up. That's the most important thing x
You are exceptional to share. Feel better soon. Never feel defeated as you know what you need and have the courage to get it. You are so not alone.....
And the camera is perfectly fine my bro, get lots of rest take care and no problem
Hi Jonny. So sorry to hear you're unwell. You're such an inspiration to so many people and do amazing work to help others. It's so easy to forget we need to look after ourselves as well. I hope you get the rest you need and are soon feeling better. You have an army of supporters sending love and hugs. Take care xx
I am thinking of you Jonny, you can get through this. We are all here cheering you on and supporting you all the way - you are so inspirational and have inspired me to start up my own RUclips channel where i talk about my own struggles with mental illness. Rest and take it easy.
Everyone needs time out mate. What you do is enough for any brain. I have schizoaffective disorder too and honestly do not know how you do what you do. It truly is amazing. You have helped me so much as I never knew anyone with the same diagnosis as me before. Thank you so much.
You are Soooo brave speaking about this. Thank you so much!!! For being so candid and giving us the insight we need to be supportive! and patient with one another
Sorry to hear this Jonny you're an amazing person and are a role model to me in how you are dealing with mental health. I had a bit of a breakdown myself a couple of weeks ago and have now gone back on to a higher dose of antidepressant. Stay strong Jonny and look after yourself everybody is here for you and thank you for sharing with us.
Jonny, I'm sending lots of love your way, I hope you are feeling much better and I hope you realise how much on an inspiration you truely are, your incredible - but even incredible people need to take a breath sometimes.
I'm sorry about what happened, Jonny. I just got out of the hospital myself last week, I had an episode as well, I was paranoid and I listened to commands and my therapist didn't think it was safe to be home. You're not alone, friend. I hope you feel even better than your better is right now and that you're able to get what you need out of the hospital. Thank you for putting your experiences out here so people like me know we're not alone. Best wishes :)
Hi I've had a history of severe mental illness but managed to get better and no longer take any medication, work part time 2 jobs and actually enjoy my life with my girlfriend and look forward to the future. If you'll like some ideas on how to get better here's a link to my short essay Link: media.yoism.org.s3.amazonaws.com/CakeTheory.pdf Also I've also done some videos on my channel explaining why psychiatry is fraud.
I hope you are feeling better, Jonny, and that you are getting some good rest. I am glad to know that you were able to get help. Take care, and know that you have my prayers and support.
Bless you man..what a wonderful thing you do even throughout your hard times. Ive had my ups and downs for over half my life now and my friends and family have always been by my side. Take care fella..
We love you Jonny, and we're all supporting you. Stay strong xxx
So sorry to hear that you are not so well but don't forget that everyone is thinking of you. Much Love. xxx
Hope u get better soon Jonny. I too have S.A.D., for years I fought against the diagnosis and the medication and also regularly returned to recreational drug use. Your video's inspire me to see their is a recovery way. Now have been put in a rehab and am slowly recovering.
thanks again
Wish you a very speedy recovery Jonny. Will call a prayer group to pray for you.
I hope you are feeling better, wishing you all the love and support!
Jonny, so glad to see you are ok and feeling better. Sending you lots of love and positive energy. Pace yourself and remember the sheer amount you have already done, and will continue to do purely by uploading this video. Archie x
A really insightful video - thanks very much for sharing. I'm really sorry that this has happened to you and I hope you get well soon. Just remember that you are such an inspiration to so many people and we really admire you for being so open and honest. Please keep us updated on how you are. All the best.
Sending you all the love and hope. you can do this, we can do this x
I hope you are feeling better.
Hope that the last few days have given you the time to take a breath and put yourself first, mate. It takes a lot not just to do the advocacy work you do around mental health issues but to be so candid and unvarnished about it. Sending a hug
I have experienced exactly the same symptoms although i still am and feel increasingly depressed i have to beleive there will always be a light at the end of the tunnel we will make it johnny x all the best brother and remember just dealing with what u go through will always make you super human
Hope you are doing ok buddy, its hard sometimes not to lose yourself in overwelming thoughts, but you are strong and you will make it i'm sure about that. Have faith and trust yourself, you will be ok bro. Much love
We all fall sometimes. Rest up and gather your strength x
Wishing you a quick recovery Jonny, my thoughts are with you- an incredibly strong and inspiring man. xxx
I'm wishing you all the best Jonny. You are so brilliant and brave to post these videos. I'm sending you huuuge hugs. Please, please feel free to drop me a message if you ever wanted to let anything out! Rest up xxxxx
I hope you get whatever you need from treatment! Make sure to get plenty of rest and eat food and drink water, all the basics. I forgot about all that stuff when I was in the hospital. I hope you recover to help out with the stress. Meltdowns are no fun at all.
I hope you will be okay soon, you are strong and can do this💖
I can't imagine what it must be like for you, keep going and keep fighting
Sending you strength and courage. Take things at your own pace and take care of yourself. You can do this xxx
Oh Jonny! I miss seeing you it was lovely seeing you a couple if years ago but I really hope that your okay and wish you a speedy recovery I'm always going to be proud of you because your so strong and you were a fantastic friend at school and I hope we can catch up soon! ❤️
Wish you all the best with your recovery Jonny.
Thinking of you and sending you lots of love. You can get through this xxx
Stay strong please Jonny, take care and know we have faith in you x
Sorry to hear that your day went for a turn on Wednesday, Jonny. I know what you mean. Please have patience with yourself. You, nor anyone else, may be "super human", but you're extraordinary and inspiring. And maybe that in itself does make you super human. And even if it didn't, you are to me. Sending love.
Hi Johnny, I hope things are going better for you! I’ve been reading your book, quite enlightens, I have a brother that suffers from Schizophrenia and Psychosis, being treated in Lambeth, has been for over 10 years. He isn’t getting better, he doesn’t admit to having a problem, no one can get through to him. Frustrating for me, I can’t imagine how it is for him. I think awareness has come on leaps and bounds, but there is still a stigma attached, and that will take longer to break down. I wish you all the best, it is giving me an insight, and if just a little hope for my brothers recovery. Thanks
Jonny, my heart aches for you. I know how it is to live in a body that does not always co-operate with what you want to be. Just remember that your mind is not who you are. It is a crude tool which allows you to connect with your soul, your higher self. You have shown us that you are capable of great love, and in the end, only love is real. I wish that I could be there to hug you all day long, as long as you needed it. I hope that you are feeling better today.
I hope you feel better soon Jonny. Thinking of you x
God bless you I so hope you are better as soon as possible big hug coming your way x
Hope you're getting well looked after there. And plenty of support. Sounds like you need some time out. Your knowing what went wrong at least reassures me. Take care.
So sorry to hear that you're in the hospital again! Blessings to you always and my thoughts are with you.
Stay strong Jonny u will get through this. Thoughts are with u. Xxx
Rest well, Jonny, take it easy, all will be well. Much love xxx
Keep in there Jon. Like the other posters have said, you've helped so many so now don't be afraid to get some help for yourself. Hope you've access to some Mindfulness or just relaxing music.
We are here for you as you have been here for us!
Thinking of you and hope you feel better soon xxx🌞🌈
You're an incredible person Jonny. Keep fighting xx
Hi Jonny, sorry you've been having a rough time. Allow yourself some "you time", you give so much, just think about your needs for a while! Sending a hug. J. X
The thing is living within the energy you can spend. It's frustrating, there's lots I want to do, but only so much I can do before it's overwhelming. It's good to remember that being healthy is doing something, and it's the most important thing. I make sure I do something completely relaxing for an hour or two every day. Realising it's important helps me put everything else aside for a while. It's too easy to think being happy is the easiest thing to drop when busy.
Thinking of you, hoping you get better soon. x
Oh Jonny, look after yourself. You can pull through!! ❤️
We love you. Hope you'll be back up and running very soon. Best Regards xxx
Sending you lots of love and good wishes Jonny.
NO DRINKING / NO DRINKING you know the out come. I's the drugs kid. Always meant with love and support.
Hi Jonny. Just to let you know I'm thinking of you and I hope you're feeling better soon. Much love, Elizabeth xxx
