This is no longer available, too bad I was really interested in this.
There’s something comforting in that we all are fucked up some way or another and we’re all in it together to get through it
Yes, there are "physical causes/defects" that affect us (psychologically)...it's "my belief" that mental illnesses are, in part, rooted in the "spiritual aspect" of our beings. As an accompaniment to your comment, I would ask you read Romans 7 (more specifically verses 15-25), in the English Standard Version. Thanks Aaron.
not everyone is
School's needs to teach a class on mental disorders
Totally agree😁😁
Teaching mental disorders can cause mental disorders

@@Slidehhy
I was studying about mental health when i was anxious, and than i started to overthink extremely than my mind somehow tricked me to believe that i have those disorders (mind do dumb thing in anxiety), and then now i am stuck in the infinite cycle of phobias, idk what is this curse, i am dealing this since 1 month amd can't get out of it 😭
It is making me depressed!!
@@Slidehhy
I am only 23 yo, and feeling su1c1d@l becoz of this curse
Things are getting worse everday, i randomly gets panik attack and anxiety attacks, and living with such brain is a like living in hell
However from outside i looks very normal, but low in energy to do even the simple tasks
I was diagnosed with derealization-depersonalisation disorder with psychotic features. I really toe the line with reality sometimes. It feels very, very unsafe. Thank God for schema therapy, where I have learned to build up the mature adult part of my personality. I've lived most of my life in my child parts, which are highly reactive. Thanks to a now stronger mature adult part, it's become easier to keep the psychotic aspect from spiraling.
Thank you for making this video. After much turmoil I was diagnosed with psychotic depression, and I never even knew it existed. If videos like this can make people see warning signs so they don't have to suffer then the world would be a better place.
Hi Noa, I'm sorry to hear you have experienced psychotic depression. I have experienced it also. I hope this message finds you on a better place now. Take care from a mental health nurse in the uk.
It's maybe what im getting. Agitation anxiety and busy all the time, also depressed with paranoia.@@Cptscotia
May I ask did u too believe u had schizophrenia? I am currently diagnosed with gad depression and PTSD and because of my psychosis that lasted for months it's taking a long time to diagnose
When I was a teenager. I had an abortion. I had severe depression after it. I went bat shot crazy with depression. And I grew seriously psychotically jealous of my ex-boyfriend's ability to move on. I had a serious psychoactive break. It took years to overcome.
I'm so sorry to hear what you went through. Hope you're all better and that it doesn't hurt as much when you go back in your memories. I am trying to heal from cptsd from childhood trauma and the memories are still very vivid in my mind to the point it hurts.
@@giulianacr2638 oh I have good days and bad. But 30 years after my trauma, I'm able to cope better in Life but my trauma did affect my young adult life.
same. had a fit in front of my first girlfriend and she never came back because she was just so freaked out by it. ots terrible to overcome especially when you don’t even know what happened to you in the first place.
When I was a teenager I killed my baby by abortion also...it ruined me for Years..I couldn't stop thinking about him being ripped to pieces and it made me crazy and hateful..today I'm only better because I accept forgiveness for myself..
@@alexdomenech24me too…
Early Warning Signs of Psychosis:
Worrisome drop in grades or job performance.
New trouble thinking clearly or concentrating.
Suspiciousness, paranoid ideas or uneasiness with others.
Withdrawing socially, spending a lot more time alone than usual.
Oh crap
@@stormy_eyes_7891 im sayin
Sadly these “warning signs” aren’t tremendously helpful as these are also symptoms of depression, social anxiety, adhd etc..
Maybe you should stop abusing your children.
@@desperadodeluxe2292 get help. You’re unwell
This actually reminds me of when I lost my sight to an armed robbery attack last three years. I was shot in the face, became blind, was depressed and suicidal but I overcame everything, I choose happiness and focus on gratitude, now I am inspiring people with my story and also a mental health counselor and mindset coach. On my RUclips channel I am on a journey of reigniting hope and Inspiration in the world. Thank you so much for all your videos. It have been helpful
God bless you. ✨💕
@@440SPN Amen thank you so much
My heart goes out to you...god bless you i am so proud of you
@@stevewilliams4842 wow thank you so much
Mmm, yeah, because people can just "choose" to be happy.
Psychedelics helped me deal with my addiction. Having suffered anxiety and depression as well. I must say taking them turned my life around. I started micro dosing and just in a couple days I noticed major changes in my stress levels, depression, and everything else. It’s been really great. After battling with these for years little did I know that shrooms will save me.
I’ve heard so much and I really want to try them too. I put so much on my plate and it definitely affects my stress and anxiety levels
He’s on insta?
yeah mate.. @ dr.coxx
The trips I've been having has helped me a lot, I finally feel in control of my emotions and my future and things that used to be mundane to me now seem incredible and full of nuance on top of that I'm way less driven by my ego and I have a lot more empathy as well
Sure, he ships discreet and anonymous.
I am so glad Dr. Judy addressed anhedonia, an important aspect of depression that most lay people don’t understand or acknowledge as a feature of depression.
Yes, and many are shamed for bIng “lazy “- its awful,
this is what im going thru
This was awesome. How dr Judy explains this very complicated issue so straightforward was easier to understand.
Also being so hot while doing it. ❤️ Very obvious the interviewer got stiff.
@@chamade166 Classy comment. IIRC the host is gay BTW.
In around six minutes clear and concise. Not too wordy! I think chamade needs more body language training!!
Thanks for bringing awareness to this. It's really a shame how medical professionals can give diagnoses without getting to know the patient. I've seen this happen to people I know.
Thanks for watching and supporting mental health education
Diagnosing people with a mental illness is a common phenomenon in general nowadays without assessing them accurately though.
My boss diagnosed me with depression & I told her , "but you're not a licensed mental health professional, so you're not qualified to make a diagnosis like that"
& then she got huffy, rolled her eyes & told me that I'm an idiot...To which my response was "I know I'm an idiot, I can't be too smart if I work for you".
That's scary to think that inaccurate depression diagnosis' are happening in supposed "professional" settings as well
True. I've gotten diagnosed within 2 minutes of meeting with a "psychiatrist". And put on several different medication. One, Klonopin, was for anxiety and I didn't even struggle with anxiety at the time, but they lied to me about what it was for to get me to take it, they said it was for "mood."
A lot of providers are lazy and just go with what u were diagnosed with previously
I feel like this could be me. I grew up in an abusive home having to keep everything inside out of fear of humiliation and physical pain. Sometimes when depression gets real bad I will ruminate about situations which I am alone and everyone around me is gossiping about me and despise me.
Are you also very jumpy and scared. Do you see shadows or light spots in your vision? That's what has been happening to me and it's scary
I am diagnosed with PTSD and major depression. When I was a kid there were people who wanted to cause me great harm. It's hard to say if it's paranoid or psychotic when the thoughts are based on real events. With the PTSD I am jumpy when there are a lot of people and noises around me. I see spots/swirls but I feel like that might have to do with hydration, or possibly something that can be solved with a lipids test (blood draw). Or if you are under a lot of stress/panic you might start having tunnel vision.
@@giulianacr2638 same
@@yourlifelesson No, this type of psychosis isn't about the past. You have to believe that there are specific threats right now in your present life, that others or you have abilities that are not common with humans (reading your mind, moving objects with your mind) etc. And diagnosis depends on eliminating any possible physical cause, which includes dementia and illnesses of many types. This usually means that you need to be seen by a doctor. It is tragic to miss a medical illness that could be treated successfully.
depression, trauma etc can make you FEEL hated etc but psychotic paranoia is different. If you know at those times those things aren't necessarily true but can't help but feel it, that's when it's not psychotic.
My loved one was diagnosed with this …they went through hell and many psych ward trips and ECT …turns out it was early stage dementia. Brain scans should be required when this happens to a middle aged person with no history of mental illness….dementia isn’t just a bad memory. If this has happened to someone you know and it’s out of the blue demand a PET scan.
This is what my biggest fear is. I have been diagnosed with BPD, MDD, being tested for autism,panic disorder, etc. Like just do a fucking brain scan. My Oma passed away 4/2020 from Alzheimer’s. I’m in huge fear, I’m 32 and a mother of three. I’ve been labeled a hypochondriac by my family. It’s so difficult.
@@unrealworld6782
Yep this is exactly how it goes pretty much across the developed world.
I figured out all these "professionals" gave me different diagnosis. The ER ones banded together to create case mgmt cuz they couldn't handle me at the urgent care level.
In the ward the psychiatrist threatened me.
They eventually told me they would ban me from psychiatric inpatient care.
I pretty much have them figured out.
@@unrealworld6782 Yep 💯 agree with you.
That's not good because I know on my antipsychotics there's a warning saying people with dementia should not be taking it..
wow, agree! Because there can be other causes like brain tumor etc. And not all mental illnesses can strike at any age - some have to start young like schizophrenia
This is great. Both questions and Dr. judy explanations are clear, inclusive and easy to understand.
Thank you for this. I was studying in the mental health field when I had my first break in 2007. I had NO IDEA what was happening to me. I ended up in the hospital and was given antipsychotic medication, and eventually diagnosed with MDD with psychotic features. It was awful. I’m relieved that there are discussions about this now. Again, thank you for this video.
So helpful cannot say thank you enough. Watching my son suffer since 16 to now 19 yrs old is excruciating. So from my heart, thank you
I am so appreciative of these podcasts. A Wonderful Man I loved very very much, went through psychiatric issues and took his life, after several years of the people in his life who loved him, on a standby-watching him go under. As you can imagine, it was horrific to know a person you loved, desperately needed help but no help was available because, he was ‘a grown man’ and had to decide to ‘get help’.
Now, with the amazing abundance of applicable information available, I feel we will lose less people to these psychiatric issues.
I am very grateful to those who bring these conversations to us. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing your story. 💙
well i can tell you that its so overwhelming that can escalate really fast its out of your control totally so if you have an episode and you have guns around or whatever well thats almost certain smthn bad is going to happen.i believe you can even start harming other humans im not sure but for the most part if there is no help harming yourself would be like adding 2+2 together.sorry for your loss
This was a great video. Learned a lot. Thank you Dr.Judy and Kyle 😊
I experienced this last year. I (ego I) was gone for six months. First time the depression had gone so far and I NEVER want to experience it again. I knew I was off but could do nothing to rebalance. I'm still recovering.
My RUclips channel name can help u out with shrooms,LSD,dmt, and other psychedelic stuffs📌📌
This channel is amazing, thank you for all the amazing and insightful content that you .constantly share
It’s crazy to hear this is rare. I don’t know how I got the luck of my dad. It explains a lot and my therapist recommended this as possible but I’m still processing this. I can’t ever get him or my mom help but it does help me place things. Thank you
I think it's schizophrenia is rare. Unless I'm not following you.
@@Misana the combo of schizophrenia and a narcissist. The schizophrenia is rare. Not sure if the combination is also rare but the more I talk to people the more I learn my childhood isn’t common even though aspects are relatable.
@@daabee236 Understood.
I was diagnosed with this after i lost my husband. Unforunately no family was available to help me.
I am okay now after therapy counseling and medicine but it was of several years duration.
My daughter got diagnosed with ADHD/BPD traits and PTSD.
When I rushed her once to the ER to get her stitched after cutting they straight away asked me “oh has she got schizophrenia”…
I live in a part of the world where mental health has got second place and therefore the facilities for treatment are either in dire need or non existent.
She couldn’t handle it anymore and took her life two years and a week ago.
I still keep on counting the weeks and many times when Thursday evening comes I recall the last moments.
I’ve watched countless videos on the topic but this one just spoke to the point on how she became.
Ps she was on antidepressants and antipsychotics.
One of my family members had this... but unfortunately it was so bad they had to be hospitalized 😔 it was so hard for all of my family.
They kind of got to a point where the thoughts they had are so bad, as if they were thinking people will harm them.
I was not aware this type of depression existed. The meds did not help and they used it for more than a year but chose to be off meds.. now we are always dealing with that person with care because we are always afraid they get back to that status..
Thank you for raising awareness about the matter
Sis, did your family try ruqqiyah on that person? We should combine treatments. Not just conventional but also spiritual.
Wishing you and your family well, Salam!
Super super helpful...I believe this is my brothers situation. Thank you for this video 👏🏾👍🏽
I really appreciated the video! I have major depressive disorder and, once during an exacerbation, my psychiatry described my clinical picture as psychotic depression and that scared me A LOT!! But after the video, I could understand the nuances of depression and the importance of a well done differential diagnosis. Thanks a lot guys!

Thank you so much for this video!
Thank you so much for this video.
Thank you for the simple teaching! 🎓
I had this in the postpartum context. It was not "postpartum psychosis" but severe (postpartum) depression with psychotic features. It took a very long time (about 6 months) to get it properly diagnosed because it's not discussed much, and even less so in the postpartum context. Thank you for this!
Thank you for sharing - I have heard of PPD and PPP but did not know there can be PPD with psychotic features. I hope you are feeling much better now
@@sorchaoreilly2633 I am, thank you. Yes, I believe there is no such formal diagnosis (yet) in the DSM, hopefully one day there will be more clarity around it.
i searched it on chat gpt because i went through it i initially thought its psychosis separately but chat gpt told me about the depression with psychotic features .cool stuff
Extremly helpful. To not confound this with schizophrenia. Thank you
Thanks for the info, always great to learn more!
Not surprised that people will get misdiagnosed in the ER though. They want to get mental health patients out ASAP, they're just not a priority to them and are seen as a waste of a bed. It's very sad that there aren't better options for those who so desperately need help.
I think it's absolutely insane people get diagnosed in the ER. I've been to the ER for mental health and they always called the psych unit to come evaluate me. If a regular ER doc tried to diagnose me, well, I wouldn't be too happy.
I was diagnosed with having a stress induced Psychotic episode. I’m under stress all the time but can cope. The other night I was drinking with my friends and was very drunk. I started involuntarily yelling out loud and then to severe sobbing. This went on at least 5 different times and I ended up being sent to the emergency room. While in the episodes I could see myself crying and yelling like I was a separate person and keep saying that’s not me, I’m not doing this!!!! I would then just come back to reality like nothing had happened. Relaxed and calm, then another episode would be triggered, again I couldn’t control it. I was later released from the hospital many hours later after passing out from exhaustion. I’m better now but feel like I’ve went through a seizure. My body and head are so tired. How would you explain this????
Have you ever been diagnosed with bpd ?
Demons
Thanks so much for doing what you do.
I was just diagnosed with this. My therapist is so amazing and did many assesments on me to rule out other possibilities. I would've never known this existed if she didn’t do all in her power to properly diagnose me.
much needed attention for millennials still struggling!! we were affected hard when our family broke apart!
THANK YOU DR JUDY THIS WAS MY FIRST TIME JOINING YOUR VIDEO IT WAS AMAZING THE KNOWLEDGE AND INSIGHT I GAINED FROM JUST LISTENING TO YOU THA I CAN USE ON MY P AS REMINDERS SO I AM SO READY FOR YOUR NEXT LIVE VIDEO STREAM I HAVE TO SAY I HAVE A HUGE CRUSH ON YO
Simple and precise
This is interesting and I can relate to several of these videos of this channel.
i’m pretty sure this is what my sister has. she believes people are going to randomly come in the house and kill her she also hears voices and is extremely depressed. it started with depression turned into paranoia and then became psychosis
thats what a relative of mine has too. Lost the ability to differentiate what is possible from what is statistical probable. Will believe the most unlikely scenarios her mind creates
@@Joao-id4dn try risperdone or haldol or a supplement called amyloban 3399
The psychotic features seen in psychotic depression are also described as being mood-congruent which means they generally have depressive themes. For example a person with severe depression with psychosis feeling persecuted is likely to also believe that their persecutors are somehow justified or they deserve to be so persecuted since they think they are bad people. This is different from persecutory beliefs you may have in schizophrenia in which the individual may believe that they don’t deserve what their supposed persecutors are planning against them.
This was a great discussion between these two women.
I really aporeciate this knowledge. I battled with depression due to my childhood for a long time and went through a really extreme low 3 years ago. I did things that are very out of character for me and have memory loss. I couldn't explain the lack if control I had during that time to myself or anyone else, but this really clears things up for me. It's good to know I'm not just making things up to myself.
Psychotic features some said here as tincture.As I observed it and termed it Psychotic tendency.It is very important step that you have to assess the psychotic features for further intervention.Psychotic features goes beyond of what we call normal or abnormal.It tends to distort portions of reality.It also bends the concept of unseen world of realities.
I feel like I have some sort of degenerative nerve disease that doesn’t exist for anyone except for me and I have less than 10 years to live. I’m in constant chronic pain all over and it’s only been getting worse for the past year but the doctors have still found no cause. I question almost everyday if I died that night I lost consciousness from alcohol poisoning over 3 years ago and constantly get this thought in my head of my ghost (how I feel now) screaming over my dead corpse on the floor feeling so much guilt and regret as my mother has to bury her now dead son. Whenever at family get togethers on holidays I feel like I’m not actually there and am instead just remembering a past memory. It makes me sad because as I look around at my family. I think of how bad they must miss me if I am actually dead. I can’t stop regretting it and feeling guilty. It feels as if I am in some kind of Hell or Purgatory. I’ve never been to a mental health professional and can’t any time soon but I wonder if I have psychotic depression.
Psychedelic’s definitely have potential to deal with mental health symptoms like anxiety and depression, I would like to try them again but it’s just so hard to source here
Psychedelics are the reason why i didn’t take my life when i was at my end. I was stripped of my ego and saw the beauty of life and interconnectivity and even though i still battle anxiety and depression, I’m doing better everyday and will never think in such a self destructive way again.
LSD and mushrooms completely changed my whole outlook on life. I became a better version of myself
This experience gave me a lot of confidence about my self and my body. A bunch of bad thought / behavior patterns were broken. One of these was pretty bad OCD that made me wash my hands a lot. It gave me a lot of hope that things will be fine, this is the one thing that I heard throughout the trip: Everything is alright. The main reason for the trip was my severe depression and it definitely helped me (although it's not gone). Before all I could do was lay in bed. Now I am trying to rebuild my life one step at a time which wasn't possible before."

How about a diagnosis of depression disorder and anxiety disorder with psychotic features? My main problem is the anxiety with psychotic features
Was just diagnosed. Its been so difficult to deal with every day. Im on meds but it hasn't helped yet. Hopefully it helps soon.
Hope you're better
This is what has happened to me. My diagnosis was changed to schizophrenia but we found out later that change was wrong. I have ASD and Bipolar major depressive type with psychotic features.
How did you find out about the wrong treatment??
@Emperor-p1s I had to get diagnosed with asd first to know one way or another. The disorders of Bipolar depression with psychotic features and schizophrenia are so close the the same feature set it's almost a negligible call honestly. My Dr. and I basically just decided what we thought. My chart still has some kind of listing for schizophrenia because it's too difficult to know one way or another. In a way ASD and this schizophrenia are probably the same thing in the end anyway. Just nobody knows what ASD-P is so that can't be my chart listing.
thank you
Umm LOVE dr J so 🔥💗
Is perpetual sadness and anger a side effect of past n current abuse and no way at all to stop any of it? No help and no way out i am close to ending it all 😐
I see this stuff as an American and Army veteran and just say to myself "I will never know if I am diagnosed correctly."
aww dr judy is so smart and pretty i love waching videos ft her
OMG... I think this is what is going on with me! My oldest daughter went no contact and I do not get to see or speak to my grandchildren (who have been with me since birth) since before Thanksgiving. I am doing Ketamine treatments and I think it is helping. I can only tell because I feel like my second treatment has worn off and I am doing things out of my character.
thank you so much for this video
Can we get more schizoid videos? Would be cool to see a NPD vs SZPD kinda vid
My brother was diagnosed as a paranoid schizophrenic nearly 40 years ago. I have always wondered if the doctors were correct. He used drugs and alcohol for many years. Sadly, he’s lived in an adult home via court order for the last 23 years. He’s now 79 and will never leave the facility.
What is adult home
@@Traumatised311 Similar to a nursing home, but the residents have more freedom to go out if they are well enough and must return daily by the curfew.
@River Lette Thank you. I believe living in the adult home saved his life.
My sister is diagnosed with schizophrenia recently. The medicines worked well for a month but now my sister is again having fears but not severe like before and she is forgetting things. My mom thinks doctor diagnosed her wrong.
My therapy was handcuffs and strapped to a bed and starved for a couple of days, Thanks St.Marks! I'll pay that bill some day
I knew someone with this disorder many decades ago but even way back then the doctors at least somehow correctly diagnosed it. The person would be completely normal for a few years, then become depressed and withdrawn, and then have these extreme symptoms during the deepest period of the ~two-year-long depressive episode. The person would eventually return to normal, and then go into another depressive episode roughly two years the period of normalcy. It was distressing to helplessly observe this pattern in this good person.
Psychotic depression more often includes “negative symptoms” such as depersonalization and derealization vs “positive symptoms” such as hallucinations and paranoia.
This is EXACTLY what just happened to my 21 yr old daughter💔
How is she now, if she is good , how?
as of this Sunday she beat my mother up pretty bad💔@@kanwalraja466
Interesting. I was diagnosed schizophrenic in 2017. Every time I disconnect from my parents my mental health improves. I start doing things in my flat like cleaning, cooking, reading, watching TV etc. usually I just go to the pub. But it seems as though when I disconnect from people that depress or stress me out, my symptoms improve
Can y’all discuss more topics of talking about mental health and the effects from sexual childhood abuse and torture?
I second this xx
I might have this! Not for sure but they’re are times where I have an enjoyable burst of anxiety and energy almost like a lethargic rage sometimes I feel like faking my attitudes or pretending to be happy or I guess “okay” but after a couple pots of coffee sometimes 3-4 pots I’m almost exhausted I’d call it depression but maybe it’s just nialism, you know everything is meaningless sure I don’t want to die, but also doesn’t is ponder you to think if death is an escape, what is the purpose what is anything if not sedation, hell sometimes I hate everything other times I’m scared to let go, as you slowly watch everything around you fade away, sure you have good moments but life is nothing more than the waiting room to your demise! So much opportunity yet so much restrictions why do anything without knowing you’d be contempt! IDK maybe it will get better maybe it won’t but until then it’s a power struggle for your own amusement!
I’m not sure what’s going on with me but it’s interesting this video was just posted. I’ve had a ridiculous amount of stress and anxiety in the last couple years dealing with addiction. I’m currently six months sober but my anxiety has become almost debilitating. I feel very uncomfortable inside of buildings especially at work. I tried to work three different jobs in the last couple months and left with panic attacks every time. In the last five weeks I had a bunch of more stressful things happen. Somehow I’m still sober. But things feel different in the last couple weeks. Things look and feel different. It’s hard to explain. But the last couple weeks I keep thinking am I gonna feel stuck like this and things are going to be weird. The truth is I am having trouble understanding what is real and what’s not. But how can I know what’s going on.? Right now I’m sticking to basics and trying to eat , Sleep, and only in the last two days I have forced myself to shave and try to keep up appearances. When you’re starting over like this it’s so hard to get help and everybody is so quick to say go here or go there. It’s almost like I need someone to take me because I can’t even make decisions. Maybe I have been paranoid for a long time and I confuse that with anxiety? I called a place a couple days ago that said they would evaluate me and might be able to take me without insurance. I don’t know what I’m going to do but I feel like seven days is not what I need. I feel like I need six months In a mental health place that is positive I can show me how to live. Because at 33 years old whatever’s been going on with me and progressing is not working anymore.
First let me say congratulations on your sobriety. It's hard work. It sounds like your brain is still detoxing. I'm sure your dopamine levels and serotonin levels are off in wackyland still. Some of what you are feeling is normal. And it's very difficult to dig out of a depression to bring yourself to act in the world instead of watching the world. Just keep trying every little bit helps every little bit is a victory over addiction. God bless you and God keep you. I believe in you.
Well I felt similar and went to a psych ward thinking I’d get help and it was so scary, i left after two days. It was a shame when I was a kid it was a good place I went to but the adult places were worse. Even the docs were creepy. So whatever you choose just be careful and do your research.
Yes it is a last resort to check myself in somewhere. Some of these places aren’t Safe and I know because I’ve been to a few.. No insurance means that you go to all the places where It’s just not good. I could have simple paranoia and exhaustion and be in the same room with somebody who is a psychopath with documented violence.. Anywhere it would be a last resort. I’m trying to keep things simple right now and making sure I eat. Everything is definitely weird in this world doesn’t help right now. This is not the same world. And it is the worst time to ever get sober
I will be coming back to this comment section to see if anybody relates or For advice.
I can relate to this somewhat- I’m super jealous of people who can afford decent, in-patient mental health care 🙃
been diagnosed with both psychotic disorder an major depressive disorder
I feel like this explains a lot of what’s going on in the world - much more paranoia out there that I wonder if was triggered by depression upticks.
Bipolar too. I had this

With Psychotic Depression, can the psychotic symptoms be isolated to one theme? Have been trying to understand a friend who has been very depressed, but suddenly became convinced she has a stalker. The things she claims are happening are impossible -- he steals her mail before it gets to the post office, has hacked all electronics, hacked her bank and medical records, knows whenever she leaves her apt even though he doesn't live in our building which is locked 24-7. He tortures her cat while she's out, steals her clothes out of the laundry room, etc. I suggested she go to the police. No, can't do that -- he has friends and relatives on the force. Can't call a women's shelter or service org because he has hacked her phone . . . etc. Sits in her apt cowering all day. Story gets more elaborate every time we talk. She has become a recluse, walks around even inside the building toting a cart like a bag lady with "important papers", snacks, all kind of random items she thinks he might get into. She can speak rationally about anything else. Highly intelligent, articulate & coherent. She's either delusional or just lying for some reason. I have been very frank with her, pointing out how unlikely these things are, and suggesting she see a doctor or therapist. But she seems convinced it's all real.
The answer is yes.
Her delusions seem more in line with schizophrenia than with MDD because they are not related to the depression.
I had this and I was scared to death with it I was on a tablet and it made me frightened and never got out of my roam it made me get upset I lost lots things about me . I okay now but I still get angry but I was worse on it wen I had it . I lost my self when I was with anyone and was angry all the time . I don’t care much about thing I do or get angry just out of no where
If someone has preexisting severe depression and is prescribed a very short course of a corticosteroid like Prednisone (for an unrelated reason) and has a negative psychological reaction after starting the corticosteroid, how would the diagnosis be affected and how might such a disturbance be treated?
A drug reaction should be treated as a drug reaction and not a mental disorder. They shouldn't make a diagnosis based on an adverse drug reaction. The professional should help the symptoms and carefully take the pt off the drug they didn't tolerate
difference to schizotypal features? Please more on that topic 💜
They don't fit the diagnostic criteria for depression.
I’m going through one right now but it seems like I’m ‘fine’ because I can work. I am very different right now. I am not sad anymore but have lost interest in the field I never even dared to call ‘work’ because I love or loved it so much. My whole life went from white to black now. I know I am depressed but everyone thinks I’m just like this and that I’m fine. I’ve had some psychotic thoughts and omfg…. I actually did do psychotic things when I moved and started in a new workplace … I had been in bed for two months and I had to get up to start working. I wasn’t ready yet. I was severely depressed. I had to suck it up. I had to work with major feelings of depression. Tiredness etc. I started to struggle in an area that I never even did. My whole life has changed. I also experienced some dissociation because of the stress I felt for seeing myself struggle in what I do so effortlessly for the first time. This has been a nightmare!!!!!! Someone help
Call beyond blue or lifeline xx
Thank you a lot. I appreciate it. I am currently in therapy. It isn’t like my previous one where I felt like I grew more but it’s good to have someone to express what I’m feeling to
@ＯＦＡＲＡ Thank you!
This illness is very very scary and extremely serious. I thought I understood depression but this one is so unpredictable and surprising. My psychotic symptoms get so severe I feel like I'm not in this world I'm outside reality. The doctors keep using the words "Treatment Resistant."
I once got lost in between the door to the Mens toilet and the door that directly leads to mens toilet, I couldn't find the door or main entrance, so I went back threw the first door and pretended I had been
I was very scared when I had sychotic depression cause I felt frightened and felt like people were attacking in side my brain . I didn’t do anything when I had it and didn’t get out of my bedroom’s
I hated it I was alway nasty to my family and couldn’t see things wat people were didn’t to me so I attacked my self and alway was upset
And this is why I was hospitalized on December 2022. Feels awful
I have this
Can you guys do a vid about alcoholl induced psycoses please????
Sounds like my brother who struggle with drug n alcohol addiction. / mental health. He's terrible when intoxicated and on meds vs. on his meds he's more stable. He gets very aggressive and destructive therefore I have to lock him out of the home. 😳🤔💔
Sometime I wish I would go off the deep end and go crazy just so someone can notice and actually want to try and help, maybe I'm just not sad enough, maybe I'm still feeling too "okay" to be considered depressed.
Oh thank God thought I had this. But luckily the voices only tell me if I stop fighting and just eat a bullet I can be with the beautiful redhead I always see whenever I'm super depressed😅
I have diagnosed with anxiety, depression, social anxiety disorder all time fear,,fear in a stressful event,,fear about life...
MEDAM CAN YOU PLEASE TELL ME WHAT MY ACTUAL PROBLEM IS
Is psychotic depression a symptom of the start of BPD and/or bipolar?
No it is not. I personally sometimes experience psychotic depression and I do have bipolar disorder. But I have talked with both my doctor and psychiatrist and they have only known of very few (under 5 people ) bipolar patients with psychotic depression.
And I don’t know anything about the BPD experiences
I’ve been suffering psychotic depression this whole two years. How do I fix this?

Auditory hallucinations are not like you hear something or someone, it's like telling, someone or something which does not exist is telling you, you don't hear it, it tells. It starts/happens when you are at the brink of surrendering completely, not to devil, not to something supernatural but it is like surrendering to the truth which is evil which is within you or with you.
And the moment you give in, by a trigger, the last push, you go to psychotic episode and it's horrifying to remember it, you might do something but in psychotic episode you are not you.
Prioritize your mental health above everything, above everything,
The best advice is not possible as any advice on the internet is for majority and every case is unique but I would advice to get 7 to 9 hours of sleep everyday.
Good advice, unfortunately I can’t choose to sleep 7 to 9 hours as I’ve struggled to sleep for the last 5 or 6 months with insomnia
Psychotic depression is a revelation to people who don’t know any better and over-conflate ‘mild depression and anxiety’ with serious depression. In nuclear psychiatry psychotic depression’s well-established and has been spoken about for thousands and thousands of years.
Is the psychotic depression a natural thing that just occurs or can something cause it such as betrayal trauma? I fit this a lot more than I realized tho it hits that level during set periods in my life.
Betrayal trauma, how to get out of it
what do you call someone who's depressed who deals with rage and high levels of irritation?
Depressed. They need to see a doctor because feeling a lot of anger will tire them out.
Depressed. Anger and irritability are pretty common. Not everyone is sad and sits around moping.

Would like to know how you can determine the difference between this and trauma/CPSTD?
Same!
It’s related, nobody has these symptoms without some trauma background. I have both
@@MimiTheHamster I wish your statement was true. Trauma is not required for this diagnosis. Check the diagnostic manual.
Very good but Dr Judy reeds to SLOW DOWN as this is a teaching video, thus the way Information is COMMUNICATED NEEDS 2B DELIVERED MINDFULLY OF THE TARGETED AUDIENCE...so a lot was information was not received that would have been if it was communicated better🐻🐼🦊❤️
Is this the same as transitory mental illness? My psychiatrist diagnosed me with this and Im not sure what this is.
Wish drs would be wiser and also not keep people on lists for years waiting! 🇬🇧
What books are in the background please? 1:36
IM IN THE 11TH GRADE and I have school next month and there’s no way I’m able to go I need help quickly I’m currently 3 months in with psychosis or something along that spectrum it says after about 6 months u may feel normal again but this is absolutely insane I had a MRI waiting for results so I don’t know what to do man
You need a GOOD psychiatrist. They will help you find the correct diagnosis which will help decide what kind of path of treatment would be good. Even if the psychotic episode has gone away by now, it's important to get checked out because they can be recurrent and it's best to catch such conditions early on so as to have a relatively normal life
@@sorchaoreilly2633 I was diagnosed with drug induced psychosis. But it’s not just psychosis I still See LSD visuals completely sober 6 months later the trip never ends!!!!!!
i was just diagnosed with major depresson disorder with phsycotic features, but i think its a miss diagnosis cuz i hallucinate without being depressed.
