The Human Social Brain: How It Goes Awry in Schizophrenia
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 31 май 2024
- Michael Green, neuroscientist and professor of psychiatry and biobehavioral sciences at UCLA, has been fascinated with the human brain, behavior and mental illness since his undergraduate days. In particular, his research focuses on schizophrenia, a chronic brain disorder that affects about 1 percent of the population. In this UCLA Faculty Research Lecture, he describes how his lab uses discoveries in psychology and social neuroscience about normal brain functioning to inform his schizophrenia research. And now, Green and his colleagues are moving into new territory, studying the causes of social isolation among people who do not have schizophrenia. You’ll learn about the tools they use such as functional MRI, that measures and maps brain activity, and EEG, that detects electrical activity in the brain, and how they do research to answer questions about social isolation in the general public.

That's wierd, my mental health started becoming 10x better when i began self isolating, not to mention the fact of it helping me sort out my anxiety issues aswell as having increased my motivation for learning/educating myself purely from free will with the tremendous amounts of extra energy I ended up having available for not wasting it on dumb social interractions.
You likely find engaging in social interactions to be highly exhausting. So when you stopped engaging in them, you freed up a lot of energy which you are spending on things less draining and in fact you probably find are themselves energizing. Like the speakers said, not all people who are low in connectedness are lonely and or bored.
Valid
Your attitude corresponds to having low social motivation. This means less lonliness.
Same here love my loneliness
Thank you this helps so much it's like you read my mind. I have bipolar and bpd self isolating has been, over all, very positive for me. But my therapist and my sponsor think it's the first steps towards relapse and instability.
In 2004 or 2005, I couldn't take all the social hostility and outright rejection anymore so I made the conscious decision to adopt and embrace isolation. It was the best decision I ever made in my life. All my severe depression (from being shunned and rejected much of my life), disappeared. And I became my own best friend with many hobbies and interests that I could pursue and enjoy at home, alone, and by myself. I've never been happier ☺
I hear you sister! I feel the same way! God bless ❤️
Gina, if your middle name is really Love, it’s perfect for you. I started feeling isolated with hypothyroidism. I worry about getting fat and my diet is strict. I bet you’re better looking than me. After gaining weight, I noticed people yelling at me. Don’t take mean people personally. Some people are assholes, but with your hobbies, you can find friends with similar hobbies because people love people who do hobbies. Like myself.
Self Isolation is never good idea, or I mean not for too long. We humans are social creatures..
My 2 year self Isolation made me short term less anxious. Because I Was sll alone.
I’m happy for you….😁 I seemed to be better isolating also
Thank you Gina!!!

What appears to be missing is the (I believe) crucial connection between maternal rejection and/or neglect of the newborn baby and the probability that this could very well lead to the above-mentioned lack of motivation for social interaction. My older brother who was diagnosed with childhood schizophrenia, was simply not fed at all, nor diapers changed for a whole year after being born, much less held or rocked or loved or appreciated for his unique self. How he survived, was my father would come home for lunch from work and feed the child and change his diapers. Besides neglect my mother was an emotionl/spiritual parasite and hateful/gaslighting to him and to me. I believe as was mentioned that while schizophrenia is genetically in our family, perhaps a determining factor as to its development (i.e., turning "on" the genes for the disorder) is maternal nurturing or lack thereof. I mean when you lack being properly loved wouldn't it make sense to "check out" from life and other people? And, scientifically, perhaps the brain regions for social motivation either develop or they don't based upon the quality of maternal nurturing or lack thereof. As well, are the (unfortunately) very common and very tragic experiences of children learning NOT TO ASK FOR HELP, for fear of humiliation, gaslighting of their experiences and/or outright abuse. I would think those kinds of negating experiences several times a day, day after day, year after year, could well contribute to lack of motivation for social interaction and the evidenced underdevelopment of those parts of the brain associated. I, too, have done well with social isolation, in the sense that it has given me the ability to recover enough from the gaslighting of unscrupulous individuals to be able to CHOOSE whom I want and whom I don't want in my inner circle. Used to be I accepted everybody, whether they were good for me or not, as I'd always been taught that I was the problem. Social isolation has given me the perspective that no, I am NOT the problem, most times. And, now that I've "kicked out" quite some numbers of gaslighting and parasitic individuals from my life and daily interacting and others who are "on the fence" about whether they will love me (conditional love), the only people left, I find, are those who genuinely get me and love me unconditionally. And those are the people I choose to make profound emotional and social connections with today.
I couldn't agree more...I've had to come through my own mine field of rejection plus instability in my childhood.
My mom suffered severely from panic and anxiety attacks and was very limited in her affections for me also due to my father divorcing her and her projecting his deeds onto me because I was a constant reminder.
I had to dig quite deep into the entire background of family dynamic and came to the conclusion that my mom was the scapegoat in a highly toxic narcissistic family and she could never escape that...because...family.
My entire family is in Germany and I ran off to the US to repeat my mom's cycle of leaving with my dad but then having to return with a child and having to live with the stigma of failure. The prejudice of German American relationships in the 80ies was high of german societal structures and combine that with single motherhood at the time and disabled and living on welfare would practically make you a leper in a society where material status is or was everything at the time.
At this point Germany has suffered their own economic disasters as far as becoming a welfare state with high levels of unemployment etc...but as a child you have no concept of how to navigate in that world...it is only in later years with self reflection that the answers pop up of why how and etc. Then to battle the trap of victim mentality...I mean...gosh life is hard 😆
I went to a school that included politicians children to whom label clothing and money had meaning...the only way I could be accepted in any of those groups was my sense of humor and to put on a false mask for my own protection. I lied...A LOT...to cover up my situation because of shame and guilt for decisions that I didn't even have any control over...I in my own way took on my mom's scapegoat role. Accepted all the blaming gaslighting bullying etc.
My mom was labeled a schizophrenic but when all you get is shit in life...who wouldn't want to withdraw...
So here I am with the voices in my head that I had to spend some time sorting out also...a lot of thoughts that would pop up and make themselves known weren't even mine...they were survival mode beliefs I had adapted and internalized.
I am 42 and quite content with my state of being...as a truck driver I can be very selective about my alone time but I do easily socialize but I don't form deep attachments or dependencies with other people.
I have reconciled and done a lot of healing work with my mother.
I am quite blessed to have recieved the education I did for a lower income citizen...I would need all those tools and puzzle pieces to accomplish this work in my life.
And then I ask myself my own existential questions of why go through all of this to then die anyways...shouldn't that have inhibited my motivation...what ever in the world motivated me to do half the shit I've done in my life.
Well, it's lead me to my own other belief system to explain the unexplainable as far as faith and spirituality...
If you take the prerequisites he gives here for schizophrenia then I have to say that the majority of the population is schizophrenic far beyond statistics...because most people will mask and hide their true beliefs in order to fit in and not be rejected for their true life experience...it is a deal with the devil to have to live double or multiple lives for acceptance and we all do it to some degree.
I'm just going to embrace who I am and who I have become and I will choose to live in my own authenticity regardless of acceptance.
Life is so fleetingly short...people come and people go...all you really have left in the end is memories stories and experiences...if dementia and alzheimer's don't take that away from you.
If your schizophrenia brings you joy and happiness and you can navigate life with it...who am I to judge your life.
But if that schizophrenia leads you to drown your babies in a bathtub because you hear voices...then ofcourse this should be addressed.
Schizophrenia combined with OCD or compulsive behaviors is probably a quite toxic cocktail.
My own issues were so deep-rooted that it's taken me pretty much all my life to unravel the spaghetti bowl.
I can see why long years of therapy aren't as appealing as self medication or medication in general.
I would refuse medication just for the simple fact that I do not wish to go through life numbed up. I feel and work through my pains and my emotional load and I do that in isolation as to not subject people to the sometimes excruciating process of it all.
Thank God for the anonymity of social media .
It's a double edged sword because it does seem to further social disconnect but then on the other hand it seems to also connect us.
What is a poison to one can be the cure to another.
All the best to whoever has read this comment which is more like an epic novel at this point.
I hope you find all the true beauty that is within you and within the struggle and also that is within this world and others ❤️
@@aqua6613 Thx so much for your story!!!!! HUGS to the gutsy and Spiritually strong and beautiful person that you are!!!!!
I think I misunderstood. Hos diapers weren't changed for a whole year ...
But,
Your dad would come home from work to change his diapers?
The mother gets blamed for everything.
trust and believe me you and your whole family have ADHD. treat that before you do anything else.
I'm not surprised that very few of them were autistic. Yeah, we tend to lack friends in school, where most people are neurotypical. But every autistic adult I know has autistic friends. It's not that we are uninterested or unable to be friends with others, we just have our own autistic social skills that work great with other autistic people.
Artistic and Autistic seem to have similarities ;) LOL
It's nice to have a niche group in society. I tend to think we ... a lot of us could do a little better if we had people to be around that we can enjoy being around. At least now n then. Few times a month or whatever.
Ironically, I have Asperger's Syndrome (thus being on the spectrum), & I have a lot of friends who are neurotypical! Maybe, being higher up on the autism spectrum has something to do with why I find it so easy to make friends of all kinds?
@@petemavus2948 True, that! ^_^ I LOVE art & animation, along with writing literature & composing music!
I have spent a few years working with children with ASD. Very often a significant but not majoritarian contributor is the home environment.
The level of detail and thorough explanation in this lecture is just amazing. I learned so much I need to watch again
Look up Schizophrenia Robert Sapolsky. I took all 40 hours of his course.
@James Pinto Thank you. I will.
Please share some highlights that you took away from this lecture.
As a person with schizophrenia who developed it in my mid-to-late 30s I would say I feel like this is a bit off. I had a very strong group of friends I hung out with all the time. I was very social often going out on my own, by myself, and making new friends. I still keep in touch with them I just can't hang out with them as much because this disease is a kick in the nuts. The problem with schizophrenia is it wears you down to where you don't have the energy to go out with friends. Anhedonia and a lot of other things are manifestations of your physical symptoms. The insomnia especially. The auditory hallucinations get so bad they can get to completely insane levels where you're sitting there just praying for peace and you have constant, continual bombardment. The disease isn't understood well enough to accurately align people with medication. It's just generally assumed persons that are SZ+ have an influx of dopamine and thereby medicate them with drugs that should bind dopamine receptors. It could be a spectrum, and caused by a number of other things. I have met a large number of people with schizophrenia. They all seem normal to me maybe just a bit over-medicated or very "tired". The disease exhausts you regularly and daily. Anyway, they are socially normal and you wouldn't be able to distinguish them from a non-SZ+ person.
I read your comment/answer, thank you.
Be glad you are aware of your condition, there are those who don’t, and think they aren’t sick. I don’t think they are off describing the illness for some. Not everyone is social when confronted with the illness . I think they are describing it the way it is for most suffering
Thank you to the researchers who devote their entire life to this
one of my favorite schizotypy lectures I've gotten to sample!
The rate limiting apsect and tragedy is “normal society” rejects anyone who doesn fit well, or make the masses feel comfy. The uncomfy feeling people get from people that have mental conditions, results in rejection and further distress for the affected individual. Memes everywhere say to avoid depressed people, negative people or “downers” when in fact society just has permission to reject people they dont like. Even when people arent mentally ill and just have many personalities traits, not always congruent, there seems to be a group of people considered “cool” or the leaders, who determine who they want around. The rest are bad mouthed, excluded and run over. People like to be around people like themselves. Theyre uncomfy around people who are different bc it creates a lot of mental work and will almost anything to, prevent it, even bully and gossip about them. Its so sad bc the reason kids behave poorly towards theirmpeers, is bc they copy what they see as they grow up, watch signals and learn how to fit in, Both normal and mentally distressed folks are exhusted by all of it. The “cool” factor is decided by media and money and nothing esle. Character or a single persons talents arent even considered anymore.
Aptly said. Brilliant.
Thank you, Dr. Green. I received my doc from UCLA and can be proud of the Good Works emanating from that two-zipcode campus! PS With four schizophrenic and two bi-polar people in my immediate family, and I totally disconnected and depressed at this point, would like to volunteer for your studies.
Riley, I imagine you will need to connect directly with Dr Green as this is a YT channel which likely he doesn't personally monitor. Best to you!
Excellent lecture.
You see things out of scientific factual experimental study/data.
Instead, Try seeing things out of subjective experience of schizophrenic people:
Schizophrenic people experience feelings amplification. They experience feelings in an intensified magnitude.
None of the instruments can pick it up, and most patients would not report it out of a non comparrisonable subjective experience.
Of course they have social disconnection/ low approach motivation. Interacting with other people is associated ,in their mind, with overwhelming feelings.
Furthermore, feelings amplification gives rise to what you call psychosis.
What you call psychosis, schizophrenic people call altered state/enhanced state of consciousness/expanded awareness.
The fact that schizophrenia survived the course of evolution, means that schizophrenia is beneficial to survival.
A schizophrenic person would react faster and more extensively, out of feelings amplification.
Schizophrenic people might have extrasensory perceptions that exceed human capacity, but that is not for a RUclips comment.
I didn’t know there were other peoples thoughts like this !
But it doesn't enhance their life positively. Cancer survived evolution too.
Aside from hurting themselves and others. The state of a tortured mind leading to erratic and often dangerous behavior. Not a happy situation for 'survival of the fittest'
Could it be possible that those who have no real friends are/have been rejected by many people and in a manner ongoing? Could that rejection be influencing how they fit or don't fit into the social world because they are considered faulty subconsciously by others who, 'fit.' Maybe the disconnectedness is a form of protection, also subconscious.
Read R.D. Lang, perhaps you already have.
Julie from the Jungles of Oomba Boomba that’d be nice just become a social butterfly to lose schizophrenia.
Think it is true people can be hurt in many ways. What one may not hardly notice that is done to them in life may give someone else PTSD! Feelings can be hurt and then go deeper if left unchecked.
Sometimes people are so alert to the fact that people can hurt others and not flinch, and they can see it too well and do not want to be part of any more pain or part of those who cause that pain to others. This could be what happens in some situations? So many will back off and stay alone. Like an animal who is hurt and will run off by themselves, we all would tend to want to run, if hurt too often. If people have found they can do more for this world on their own that they will do. We will do what we must to survive many times. Being happy with what you are achieving, and who you are, and do not need anyone else to pump you up, constantly telling you that you look best and are best etc , that would be the best model of any person, we could find with mental problems..
I am guessing, as not a Psychiatrist or Psychologist or student or anything close. If someone hears voices and reacts violently and becomes hostile, we may see a whole different case?
@@alexanderrenz329 A year since I made that comment and looked up Laing today!
Yeah that's why it's called skits-0-friendia. All these disorders are named in such a way
My family thanks you and colleagues.
Wow, what an interesting topic. Loved listening to this while I worked.
This was awesome. This really helped me to differentiate between Schizophrenia and Bipolar I with Psychotic Features. We once believed that hallucinations and delusions automatically qualified the client for Schizophrenia Dx (as long as substance abuse and medical condition is ruled out), but this study is isolating social disconnection and/or low social motivation as a predominant differential symptom Schizophrenia? Correct? This is so helpful. Thank you.
Outstanding!
This is pretty obvious if you just look at the negative (as in negative space) symptoms of schizophrenia. Ie flat affect, lack of social motivation, few rships outside of family, anhedonia etc. The negative symptoms of schizophrenia are NOT symptoms of bipolar. Only the positive (as in present) symptoms like hallucinations, delusions, etc are shared with bipolar w psychotic features.
It's much harder to differential schizoaffactive disorder from bipolar w psychotic. The mai difference is if the episode started as a mood dysregulation but delusions/hallucinations/disordered thoughts are present closer to peak and are first to leave with mood lasting longer, that indicates bipolar. But if episode starts w disordered thoughts/psychosis then mood dysregulation is additional and it goes away first,that indicates schizoaffective.
Pretty much, I want to learn how to be compatible with people who tell me that they were diagnosed with schizophrenia. These wonderful people. These people who are capable to live good normal lives. These people who need a chance. These people who we need to stop stigmatizing. If you don’t believe that people with schizophrenia can live normal lives, look up famous people with schizophrenia. But there are people with schizophrenia who are not famous and are living great lives.
Hi first of all I've been diagnosed with schizophrenia
I see the problem lies in front of me
Often times I avoid auditoriums especially churches
I'm often times i’m by myself but i do not truly feel alone I see I'm rare case of schizophrenia
Take for instance I'm like writing song lyrics
Often times I can feel writer's block
But most of the times writing from different angles some different songs by the way I listen to all types of music
My point is this without this I will not be able to do this be able to write song lyrics make connections to do make the words come together
Is not about personality disorder it's about being positive helping one another what's the same time helping the group
It's about knowing what you have how do you handle it properly
About know your emotions knowing how to handle them right
I feel that it's my life is a journey
If you have a schizophrenia people with it must be taught do you have a good bucket list and a bad bucket list I must become a master I'm putting ideas in the right area this is my story I thought I would share with you
Very interestingly explained!
You are very intelligent and talented and this is showing in many ways, as it sounds. Most artistic people are often happier being a bit more alone. Many people have done great things in this world like Einstein. People did not understand him either. We are all made differently and have different callings. When we love each other as we are, life moves along quite well. Understanding each other is often hard, so we try to figure things out and why we do not all act alike. We cannot all be the same. You are thriving in your own life doing what you are called to do and making a big dent in life. So that is most important. Those who make their dent in life by reaching out more in a physical way is what is meant to be done. We cannot all do the same thing and if we did, not all things could get done.
Thanks for sharing.
Yes good bucket list vs bad bucket list. Totally agree with you.
However we do not hv control of the bucket list and the criterion of each.
Refer the Holy Qur'an and you will find the answers.
You are right important to handle properly
Thank you. I agree. My talent is writing, poetry and songs. The diagnosis is just something that might come along with my talent.
I hope you are doing well. Always remember God made you the way you are for a reason. I believe it is a gift. You are in touch with the spiritual world and more sensitive to it than most. Stay connected with others as much as you can. We all need to be social beings. I struggle with isolation. I'm a highly sensitive individual so I am hurt very easily and take things to heart. But God has blessed me with the gift of writing. Keep writing and remember you are never alone. God will never leave you or forsake you. I know this. He has kept me sane. I should be a crack head or prostitute. Lol But by the grace of God I have survived a broken childhood and it has made me resilient and strong. Keep fighting. Call on Jesus. He will listen. I promise you. 💜
I am an autistic schizophrenic.
My father was violent, I was bullied mercilessly all the way through primary and secondary school, my sister was domineering and my mother's boyfriend threatened me for years through jealousy.
I became ill with schizophrenia around age 18 and it changed everything.
I was not diagnosed until 2010 and by then I had been on antipsychotic meds for 18 years without realising what they were.
I thought they were tranquillisers.
I'm currently on Olanzapine and my symptoms are eased, but autism affects my relationships: I cannot instigate conversations or make friends.
To have both conditions together is more common than you may think, and there is some overlap of features.
It's a lot to deal with but I know people have it worse.

Who has it worse?
Euan Elliot - I don’t understand. Do you mean to say you were given antipsychotic medications for 18 years before being diagnosed with schizophrenia?
Just curious. I have similar difficulties. It’s frustrating…
U are not alone I was just diagnosed with autism at 38 I also have bpd , cptsd,dislexia,im extremely anti social
My loved one has Aspergers and Schizophrenia. It's a genetic factor, not a life circumstance factor. This is just the brain he's been given to work with in this life. He was also on anti-psychotic medication without realizing it.
The state of mental health in humans is growing increasingly delicate and needs to be more urgently addressed. We need more caring, more education, more trainings, more funding, more beds, more research, more opportunities for early intervention... all of it.
I found this extremely helpful. My mother was diagnosed with schizophrenia years ago. She's 81 now and refuses medical treatment. I've been cut off from her. She decided she doesn't like me. I presently choose not to be social to a certain extent. The stimuli overwhelms me and I feel safer isolated.
Megan, Please listen to my story on RUclips at Hearing Voices: real help and understanding.. Praying for you and your grandmother, Carol
Megan Zopf you sound like you are victimizing yourself when your mother is the victim
I was also the daughter of a schizophrenic mother, I also am unable to have regular social interactions because of how overwhelming it can be.
I was diagnosed with schizoid personality disorder, which would put me on the schizophrenia spectrum. Which terrifies me to no end.
I completely empathize with you Megan. I wish you the best, as we are usually the forgotten ones.
Queen Spacegoat hi, can you tell me more about your situation please? How you handled your mother and what were her symptoms? My mother is schizophrenic as well. I’m having a difficult time dealing with her...
Megan Zopf if you could elaborate how you dealt with it, it would be helpful.
If you want to know about schizophrenia, it seems like, talking to a *recovered* schizophrenic, might be a good place to start but if they can’t lord it over you, no one is interested in having the discussion. They are only interested in the failed cases rather than any cases of success. So then, how will you ever learn to have success in treatment of schizophrenia when you deliberately ignore it? It’s like despising them while they are living and only morning their loss after they are gone. It makes no sense.
That's deep. Are you still schizophrenic?
Thank you, I never noticed this but it's honestly true. I don't know why there has to be such a constant dismissal of us, we are people and we have our own thoughts but it's as though everyone assumes we just can't speak for ourselves.

@@WorldofDaisyFlowers I stopped believing in my delusions. I had to change everything that I believed and determine what is absolutely true.

@@johndoeredfeather9600 I was constantly depressed and couldn't function socially without using substances. I had experienced quite a bit of trauma over the years and psych medication didn't help. I was ready to take my own life. I couldn't find pleasure in anything I did.
I recommend your friend try esketamine before going to opiates. Opiates are showing a lot of potential with mental health and substance abuse issues but is not a step to take lightly. Opiates are very powerful drugs and the body becomes chemically dependent easily. Opiate withdrawal makes DT from alcohol look fun.
Buprenorphine is a synthetic opiate that is being used in studies to treat alcohol use and to help with depression. It still has the chemical dependency issues but to a lesser degree.
I recommend your friend only turn to opiates as a last resort because it's not a medication that you can just stop taking and walk away. I have not tried the esketamine treatment myself but hear great things about it. Microdosing lsd or psilocybin mushrooms is a treatment I have had success with but had to discontinue due to availability and legality in my state. I hope your friend can find some relief and if you have any other questions just ask.
@@shawnrobertson9901 thanks for the response, yes I heard about buphrenorphine it's a great alternative for opiates didn't know it was for alcohol too, lsd was another contributing factor to the mental health issues. Just like cannabis, it's not for everyone, will have to lo look into ketamine if it's an option in our state.
LSD in very small doses is a great antidepressants but isn't for everyone. I was highly skeptical and thought it would be a waste of good lsd but a quarter of a hit every other day helped a lot and didn't produce the psychedelic effects. I prefer the opiate treatment but it carries more risk. Most states are allowing esketamine treatment under right to try laws. I believe it has to be administered by a physician every three days via nasal spray. It is hard to find good mental health and substance abuse treatment
Same here. Heroin and then methadone which I'm still on has made my life bearable and has done tremendous benefit to my OCD and my extreme addictive behavior. It was a choice I had to make to either stay on the method on which has made my life better and I can work all day without having to deal with my extreme addictions and not just drugs but sex and practically everything else
Since more technology appeared we became more disconnected from one another. This is where the rate of schizophrenia grew up. We no more have social ability like our ancestors. It would be interesting to see the same data presented in video but in a generation that lived 50-100 years ago. And it also would be good for us to learn to use our phones in a better way, no wonder where we will be with our mental health in 30 years from now.
🙏
People still had schizophrenia before technology, but it wasn’t something that was talked about since people saw mental illness as an embarrassment and weakness
Gee, it would be interesting to learn more about your technology causing isolation causing this splitting of self.
Do you mean the person who gets ill had technology exposure personally (ie work or games) prior to illness??
So I am windering about the (too) many of rhe dozens of people on the streets who seem to be schizmed in some way, unkept while talking sincerely--even violently-- with another I cannot see. Now this group is of all ages so it would be a complex causation survey.
On the other hand , did you mean that technology in everyones lives has made a society became more isolated (exclusive and less dependent) which is somehow causing some to become schizophrenic ?
Please, this is an interesting idea you bring up.
@Leslie thats me your affirmation is right, totally agree!
Schizophrenia has been with human kind since the beginning. It has a biological basis.
I would love to be in a study like that. I’m very much like the test subjects he talks about. Exactly, to be honest. I’ll see my doctor next week and we’ll see whether or not I’m schizophrenic or something in that area.
If you are, don't be scared. A diagnosis can be a blessing. It just depends on your attitude.

What I am very curious about is, are the patients you are studying, medicated or premeditation. Antipsychotic medication like Clozapine can play a part in the antisocial behaviour, due to its effects on the mesocortical pathway.
A problem with our pysc meds is Their side effects are sometimes worse than the mental illness. My paranoid and psychosis gets worse the longer I'm on meds. I feel like I went from regular bipolar to skitz from my dam meds. We really need to spend more time w mental illness studies, than quails on Crack. 😄 (congress definitely should be studied)
Well they're usually medicated because their life is fractured and troubled. True medication side affects behavior.
Think about the effects of the lockdowns...oh my, what will our world be in 10 years.
rejection is simply in the mind of the rejected themselves...thats what i know ... and we dont always feel pain, sometimes we intentionally try to be rejected so that we dont have to deal with certain people..in this case we would feel relieved and happy
Yipes.
Yipes
Wow
That is so true (at least for me)!
If you’re mom rejects you but can’t get rid of you, it’s not really your choice to have the rejection reflected in your behavior as you grow. Rejection is real and we cannot control it
This is very detailed and interesting. Some points which appear to have been missing though: the degree to which trauma/abuse impacts the development of schizophrenia (there is more than a passing corollary).
Also, the degree to which so-called "symptoms" of schizophrenia are actually caused by the MEDICATIONS which are supposed to "relieve" schizophrenia.
Schizophrenia has much to do with the brain's response to trauma and to properly letting the brain heal from trauma.
Allopathic meds, unfortunately, do a lot to interfere with the brain's healing process. They can stunt, exacerbate, or in other ways interfere with the brain's ability to heal.
Solitude and nature is imo balm for the soul.
I understand and appreciate the responsibilities and complexities of practicing psychiatry.
As a patient, at least.
I think I have managed to sneak a peek or two at my medical records, and recall "atypical psychotic disorder", "schizoid personality type" or similar scribbled in the mystic marginalia.
Which is a part of the frustration. Or a source of added confusion, seeing as one is genuinely concerned to get a handle on the beastly little thing.
I know or respect the legal and personal side of a full disclosure; as though, amateur that I am, the twisted tale should give me more than myself, at last.
I sometimes relish the intrigue of it all: I am also parts of Bi-polar this, an occasional "break" with that, than I have any right to deserve.
The weather, up there, down below, is quite the thrill ride.
Maybe, it is just American mental health.
But, sometimes, the doctors seem more patrons musing than physicians of the soul.
One needs to know the harder cases, all over and deep within the "spectrum", to try and find the clue.
I have talked for hours, listened to a good friend's voices.
Witnessed the scholar unhinged.
It is labyrinth, through and through.
what I want to know is can a perfect brain be turned schizophrenic, through severe life events?
mr bumble. Yes
well that would explain a lot...
A perfect brain? No such thing, I guess. Anyway, to become a schizophrenic, you have to have something else, besides "severe life events".
so a normal person cant be sent mad, what about Chinese water torture?
Yes he is, he may become "mad", and not only because of some Chinese torture, but from some other things, including drugs. He, though, is not going to have a schizophrenia, but some another type of psychiatric condition, maybe traumatic disorder, or paranoid psychosis, or any semi schizophrenia diagnose. But not the schizophrenia itself.
Maybe you could start off by not calling mental illness a disease or even an illness because it's not and that's where our first mistake is in helping anyone is trying to tell somebody that they're ill or they have a disease.
I would like to hear from actual patients that live with this every day.
Well I try to not get stressed and overwhelmed because that just brings on delusions. The first time I heard the voices I thought angels were talking to me. I set in the bathroom all night asking and answering questions with the voices. It got so bad I decided to run my car into a tree to get the voices to stop. I take a shot now every month and mood stabilizers. I just try to not get stressed and don't go out too much nor have too many things or exposers to people and situations. I am unemployable and on fixed income. I try to live in each moment and be grateful and thankful for everything. I don't like hearing things and seeing things they seem so real at times. I have lost my will to enjoy my life. I just try to stay focused and aware of my current situation I am experecing at each moment. I have been in the mental ward maybe 6 to 7 times. I have woke up there not knowing how nor why I was there what I had done. It's hard on a family. Once I was telling my wife I was going to Greece and marry an Indian women. I don't like it at all when I have no memory of what has happened and what I have done. I am not allowed to have any weapons which is ok by me. I am not a violent person nor quick to anger. Hope what I have written gives you and idea of living with schizophrenia.
I really enjoyed this video and especially him (Green)
I am grateful to say that I am a born again Christian and have been since I was 19.......the reason I believe we have diseases of all sorts is because we are still living in a fallen world under the curse of sin until God one day gloriously removes it! In 2 Corinthians 12:9 Paul pleaded with the lord to remove the thorn from his flesh however the lord turned down his request and said “My grace is sufficient for thee! My power is perfected in your weakness!” We can rest assure that God is always with us and if we just lean and rely on him he is always with us, and will never leave nor forsake us! Praise Be to God! He is omnipresent at all times and even though we may experience more than we can handle, he will never put more on us than only he himself can handle! However folks if you don’t know Christ as your savior then it burdens my soul to think that you are headed for a terrible place called Hell where the Bible says the fire is never quenched and the worm dies not! Folks you are not promised tomorrow! If you want to know how to be saved from this horrible reality then please by all means don’t hesitate to comment right back so I can lead you to the savior! 2 Corinthians 6:2 clearly states “now is the time of God’s favor, now is the day of salvation!” And Hebrews 3:15 clearly states, “Today if you hear his voice don’t harden your heartsIt is not me but the Holy Spirit that I pray reveals to you the truth of his precious gospel......John 3:16 says for God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whoever believes on him will not perish but have everlasting life! V 17 says then V 18 says whoever believes on the son is not condemned but whoever does not believe on the son is condemned already because he has not believed on the son whom God has sent! Also Acts 16:30-31 what must I do to be saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house I am not threatening anyone but just warning them what will happen if they reject this precious gift of eternal life! Christ died a horrible criminals death! He was beaten brutally mocked spit upon and endured countless hours of torture pain for all of our sins! Ppl go to hell because they reject that pardon for their sins! And Jesus is saying to them in Matthew 25:41 depart from me you cursed into everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels! Hell was only prepared for Satan and his angels! It is not God who threatens anyone it is the craziness of rejecting the free pardon of salvation! It’s like if you’re in court you’ve committed a crime say you murdered someone! Now if you say to that Judge hey I know I’ve done a terrible thing of murdering that person but I hear you’re a good judge and so I know you’ll be fair to me...... the judge is going to reply well yes you’re right about one thing I am a good judge and because I’m a good judge I’m going to see to it that you’re punished and that justice is served! Well then all of a sudden someone you don’t even know comes forward and says you know what I know he’s committed the crime he’s committed and he deserves to go to jail but I really don’t want to see him go to prison so I’ll just go to prison for him so he can go free! So if you accepted that offer you’d be free to leave the courtroom but if you didn’t well you’d be crazy and go to prison yourself! Well that’s exactly how it was 2,000 years ago! He is God in human flesh and he came to this earth lived a perfect sinless life and even though he knew that we had sinned and because of our sins deserved to die miserably but he said no I don’t want to see them suffer so I will go and take their punishment for them! Even though he did absolutely nothing wrong still he chose to take the punishment for our sins so we can be set free from the power bondages and consequences of our disobedience to God! Romans 5:8 says For God commends his love toward us that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us! 1 John 2:2 says he was made to be the propitiation for our sins! And not just for our sins but the sins of the whole world! 2 Corinthians 5:21 He who knew no sin became Sin for us that we would be made his righteousness! The truth is if you had to get to Heaven by your own effort then you cannot do it! Because Romans 3:10 says there is not one that does good! No Not One! Romans 3:23 says For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God! Romans 6:23 says For the wages of sin is death! But the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our lord! But the good news is Romans 10:9 If we confess with our mouth and believes in our hearts that Christ died for our sins then was raised from the dead we will be saved! V 10 For it’s with the heart we believe and it’s with the mouth confession is made unto salvation! God gave us 10 commandments to follow and we’ve broken every one of them! And because God is a good God he cannot allow our disobedience to him to go unpunished! Well then like I just mentioned above his son Jesus stepped forward and said no I don’t want to see them punished so I will take their punishment for them! And also like I said he died a terrible substitute criminal’s death for us on a cross so now all we have to do is accept that payment for our sins and we can escape the terrible wrath of God that is to fall on them who do not accept this atonement that was sacrificed for our sins! Praise the lord Romans 10:13 says Whoever calls on the name of the lord shall be saved! And 1 Peter 1:4 you’re an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you! Christ clearly said in John 14:6 I am the way the truth and the life and no one comes to the father but through me! Acts 4:12 clearly states that there is no other name given unto Heaven or earth by which we must be saved as there is salvation in no other! Jesus clearly states that there is clearly only one way to Salvation and it’s him that’s it! There is no other way! God Bless everyone who reads!

How do you become part of a schizophrenia research study at a school like this?
some times i felt like its bpd, ptsd, chronic depression ,dysthymia, this schizoid. or am i over thinking. from childhood. Day dreaming turning my minds fiction fears and later it becomes reality. like pain imagining something bad happening. to point where at the moment im imagining i actually feel it like its happening in real. later after so much thinking for so long. they start becoming real experience i had in my life. subconsciously. 32:33 social anhedonia. its on going from last 3 4 years. 2 year's total self isolation. this year i went out promised to get a job to friend. he on my behalf asked someone about it found one. then i start seeing again that hes manipulative. being good guy so i can be his jin and he my Aladdin. do this friend ill have to help. etc etc. (note im not good with phrasing things right way. sometimes)
Hi like your video the part I loved was about the brain. Amazing diagram. I am. I said. This is the conclusion I come to. This statement comes not from me but how others have treated my all my life. In words action and thier slip of thier tough because of this I can be happy and I now have a goal in my life after my children have grown up. My brain goes into hypodrive when I heal. That why I say I am. I can see you have a lot of experience thank you for sharing.
These symptoms should be seen in the context of the more general cognitive impairment of schizophrenia.
Schizophrenia doesn't exist, it's a combination of any number of spectrum disorders, someone with schizophrenia could have symptoms of ADHD, autism and psychosis, someone with bipolar disorder also experiences psychosis, it can occur in any spectrum disorder, it's just more extreme in "schizophrenia" and bipolar disorder. Every person with Schizophrenia or spectrum disorder will have symptoms not shared in other schizophrenics.
This is extremely problematic for treating "schizophrenia".
@@RUclipsstopincel your perspective interests me because I was trying to understand a person dxd ADHD (combined) and possible ASD who would intermittently act manic and grandiose with clear and compulsive disorganized speech, inappropriate affect, probable tics, and extreme physical agitation. I have wondered whether psychosis was part of the picture because they seem unaware after an episode. That might be just an act.)
The doctor says that to find a place to sit in a theater begin by looking at faces. Wouldn’t it be more efficient to look at chairs? Reminder: When studying psychiatric research outcomes, always start with the financial disclosure statement.
I have friends but I'm still ok with being alone cause I comfortable with being around myself I'm not insecure I dont have to have company to feel unlonely
Nice work
UCLA posted a video wherein they misspell the word 'sciences' every couple of minutes in the banner text?
Although it wasn't supposed to, and the others are probably irritated about it because I heard the songs, but being challenged in life/death situations caused me to become clearer for the first time, so we have to challenge the beliefs. I don't mean disorganized/dementia brains.

Are the people with schizophrenus onpsychotopic medication during these mri's?
Can you believe that there are people that want to have schizophrenia? I'm serious because I've been in psych wards and some folks would ask me what my symptoms were and then convince themselves that they have the same thing
It's an attention thing. If you go around telling people about it, they feel bad for you and they enjoy it. I don't understand it either, it makes me feel stupid and inferior to everybody else, why would anyone want to pretend they are below everyone else?
Maybe if you looked at it as a blessing instead of a curse, you'd be in a different position. Try it. Everyone else gets to think inside a box. Not us.
@@masonart4950 you know one thing I've noticed being around other schizophrenicsin psych wards? Many folks with this unfortunate condition actually seem to be very intelligent and creative as I've seen. Were it not for the condition I wouldn't doubt that we'd be great and beautiful minds

I'm surprised he didn't form the obvious connection between the pain of rejection vs low approach motivation.
He alluded to it, however they were on opposite ends of the lecture. He began with how social rejection is real pain. Then ended with how isolated people have low approach motivation, but not avoidance motivation.
Pain avoidance is a universal vertebrate trait.
I'd rather be alone and I don't have a mental health issue.
Social disconnection. New term for me. And an objective diagnosis for it. What would the person with this be nicknamed as this becomes mainstream knowledge, an isolate?
It's called social isolation. Alot of people with complex PTSD like myself isolate.
Researching because I woke up and randomly heard the song Suit and Tie by Justin Timberlake. That shit was weird
Now that we are in our third year of Covid this talk is extremely important. We have a generation of children who are all on their machines, mostly introverted, and did not so snot did not get to socialize now in their youth. This will mean that there will be either many schizophrenics coming up or or is it going to be that we adapt to this introversion as a pretty common trait especially amongst the young men?‘
3rd year already?? Wow feels like 6 months ago. Time flies
I think we're already dealing with an influx of damaged children, and we'll see a tsunami of kids with developmental psychology disorders. We'll need to quite deliberately teach them about emotions and healthy body language, and help them find their place in the world.
They're going to feel disconnected, if these connections were made during formative years. I'm afraid for them.
Diagnosis with schizoaffective disorder when I was 19. 26 now and I’m still not treated
Can anyone make comparisons between these brain process mistakes and how an autistic person experiences others?
Excellent presentation. Very intresting.
My personal view only:
People with schizofrenia experience feelings much more intensely than ordinary people, and you cant measure it with an EEG.
They self impose social disconnection, just to avoid intense mirror affective feelings/ transference feelings.
They are innate feelings amplifiers.
Solitude is their protection from triggering feelings amplification.
The face recognition process of schizofrenic people is unique:
Very enhanced capability. They are face shifters. When they do not recognise a face ,they would find the most similar face in their memory.
They do it very fast. Less than a second.
They see a human face wriggling into semi recognition.
They can depict human faces out of every surface that has a texture , as well.
They never bother to interpret the emotional expression, that has less priority.
I suspect they can infer of a person's traites just by face recognition selection rules.
Wonder if schizofrenia is a product of feelings amplification.
Feelings amplification is the admission fee to extrasensory perception.

As a group, the special ed children are having massive problems, the hydra. I know it would be worse if they didn't attend public schools or join the community because then they'd be exploited even more/killed, but there has to be some way to make it work, and not just with Placebo's "Special Needs." I don't have a suggestion. It also depends on the person and family. My HS tried to do inclusion by having separate programs for us, but it's hard to succeed in much of anything if you are slow. Kids don't always understand why they're different, and we have A. To her credit, she never wronged me, invited me to her parties and treated me well, but I was jealous of how easy it was for her. I didn't get it.
What is "the hydra" and who is "A"?
A lot of education systems out special needs kids in mainstream school to save on costs. That’s more cost effective than two separate schools (a mainstream school and a special needs school)
@@deekircher21 not when they end up paying us all on SSDI after torturing us. RUclips and blogs might actually help us because people like watching and hearing about different people, totally delusional about themselves. Also, there is online school if it gets too bad. My childhood was a sick joke.
@@deekircher21 My favorite joke is how my parents decided to name me, "Kaela." I was immediately put on the spot for this. They said, your name is "KAYLA." The joke was, "You can't even spell your own name." Well, half the population can't spell, "liaison?" I just decided to spell it as "Kayla," but it made my mom angry, so she'd correct it on my homework. This has been the bane of my existence. It also gets me noticed by people, trying to sound it out. If I predict the issues, such as when I get coffee twice a year, my name is "K."
@@deekircher21 Sorry to spam. I think making blogs and youtube videos, being an influencer with a learning disability, will help them all. A lot of the problem is that kids don't know how to handle it. The teachers are often inappropriate and make life difficult by being bad examples. In one class, for example, the teacher said I couldn't read and to help me out, my fellow students.
schizophrenic personally I knew a guy that suffered from in South Africa, I didn't understand a word you talking about the condition, it doesn't explain what i needed to know, about their behavior of such people in a general way, you need to specify it in a easy way for people to understand, what you mean
We cannot relate for long with someone we have no give and take with from past lives
Great achivement for the society & the individule
I have only 1 friend who is diagnosed with schizophrenia. He has good personality, able bodied, sociable, quite humorous and has active sexual life. He is very likeable. But I have not seen him in any meltdown or acting strangely. So, I'm still unsure how he could be diagnosed since he seems normal and have normal lifestyle. I have no knowledge of this condition. I'm just trying to educate myself.

I have been diagnosed as a paranoid schizophrenic, I have had this illness all my life, my grandmother had the same illness, and her brother, my uncle was admitted to a hospital for the criminally insane at the age of 22 years old. I have struggled through life, only to be diagnosed in my mid-50s, I've been called names all my life, I sometimes wonder if depression within me stems from that, I'm trying to understand my illness.
I have the utmost empathy for anyone who struggles with this illness. I’ve been friends with multiple people throughout my life who suffered from schizophrenia and they were all good people who were mostly misunderstood by the people around them. ✌️💚🙏
Very sorry to hear my brother. I hope you have peace soon

My brother is schizophrenic he was normal until he was 19 years old it is demonic oppression and in some cases demonic possession you need deliverance from a Pentecostal church or charismatic or evangelical church they are the same people pray for you and cast the demons out that’s what it is I know my brother has it but he will not admit it they tell him in his head he doesn’t have it because they don’t want to leave I’m telling you he’s had it from age 19 to 47, it was probably brought on by sin by doing a lot of drugs God is the answer!!! Jesus Christ is lord!!! I’ve had miracles also my brother isn’t delivered yet because people can’t force a healing on you , you have to want it. Someone prayed for me once and my migraines left for three months night and day for the first time in my life and I had a sore ankle at the same time and instantly they were healed but three months later I was having an argument with someone and we were screaming at each other and that opens the door for the demonic you have to live a holy life! People get healed but also people lose their healing because they have to be keeping close to God and baptism of the Holy Spirit can help and you need to read your Bible so you understand it’s a way of life but it’s a way of victory it’s a living life victorious God can do anything if you have faith times even if you don’t He’ll still help you if you seek him you will find him never give up God bless you I hope you believe me ,I care!!!✝️

Id rather learn about schizophrenia from someone who has it. Definitely.
Humanist seeds can be planted and grow freely along a positive philosophy that already exists but has been under used. One side of the brain is not subordinate to the other, Human Resources Management should sit side by side with the Executive
Was diagnosed with schizophrenia in February. I'm 59 and theories about why from doctors and therapists have ranged from late stage lyme disease, inflammation and gluten, long COVID and spike protein, and no reason at all, the reason psychiatrists prefer. I think it's loneliness and disconnection. Filling the void with something. For all the things I've tried, diets and cleanses and fasting to fix the stuff wrong with brain cells, it's just having something to do, exercise and hanging out with real people that alleviates hallucinations for a while. If I hang out with real people I don't have to talk to people who aren't there and ... wildly abusive, sickening psychopaths of my imagination. Why it's sickening psychopaths who want to kill me? God knows. They're also company and helpful until the night when they want to kill me. But anyway, so...I never was very social. Neglectful parents, abusive brother, bullied as a kid. Didn't connect well. Of course antisemitism is a thing and children in white neighborhoods picked on little kids like me with full lips and curly hair). It snowballed into a person who doesn't socialize much. I did have a marriage. I raised two children, sometimes alone. I was NOT schizophrenic. The ex left for women, like ex's do, and I raised my kids alone. I moved to the City in time for COVID just after both my kids. Schizophrenic and unemployed. It's illegal to fire people for schizophrenia. Yet that's how my boss rolled.
When I see a person lieing in the street about a month ago. He had an egg head because he been hit over the head. I understood that it was brain fluid that was make the bump. I ran down to the NHS center and asked reseptionist can I use your phone to get the ambulance for him. Personally I was worried because the other people who were around him were trying to move him. Bad move I was cross they want to because I know that not helping but they want to.

As far as the socially isolated group, I'm wondering if acting oddly has to do with having no one to socially put on a performance for. Everyone is a little like that, like wearing sweat pants and no makeup if you have a day off alone. But, thinking about cat ladies, hoarders, etc. it seems like the oddness has to do with this effect but at an extreme. I wonder if you looked at people in solitary confinement in jail if they would uniformly be a bit off in this way, not as an innate trait but as an effect of the isolation itself.
Research shows that people in solitary confinement develop mental illnesses
@@mercyk2672 The difference I start to see is that there are some people who are developing mental illness primarily from being alone. However, people who are diagnosed as schizophrenic, such as a patient I cared for and several people I used to know, seemed to have similar problems spontaneously, even though they had at least a moderate amount of interaction. For example, one still lived with a girlfriend that took care of him, but began to experience severe delusions.
Social interaction will not prevent schizophrenia but it may help prevent further decline. Isolation on the other hand has been linked to cognitive decline and psychotic behavior in a "normal " mind.
This is the comment I was looking for. I find myself constantly wanting to be on my own and avoid all social interaction at all costs, exception to those few I allow in my life and then it's as if I 'perform' if you may. I dread/fear returning to my workplace due to my inability to conjure up or read social cues properly. Forget about coming up with solutions to problems I always need someone to do things for me it seems.
Maybe they'll fix us in the future, and we can be excused from the death and torture table. What about long term planning? it would be cheaper than disability if we had social workers follow us for like four years after HS to make sure we're adapting to adult life? Recommendations for job core instead of the push to college? Unfortunately, we're going to have to realize our abilities at some point and attempt to self-actualize... more aptitude tests instead of ABCs and 123s at 16.. we might be cute children, but we still become adults. We're getting our asses kicked at the moment. You guys are supposed to be the smart people.
Society and Governments are seriously FAILING so many people its atrocious. Especially when the solutions are really so simple. But they would rather spend money to wage war and mass murder all while calling people who are simply trying to survive and find a place for themselves "crazy".
Billions for an airplane when that same money could fund a few thousand people to help other people who need it. From what I've seen a lot of mentally ill people simply need a little support and assistance, often not even permanently just enough not to be ground down by past experiences and the far to often unrealistic expectations of the future. How much pressure would something that even poor people used to afford (A maid/ House Helper) take off the backs of someone struggling to keep up with house chores and work duties? Not everything for certain, but quite a fucking lot.

Yes people with this label can be sick but only if they deny themselves. If they force it to be something they know to be false it hurts us. Sometimes there is no other safe choice, but to love to keep it together to let it fall apart, it will goexactly as it needs to and much love to all look for your light pull against whatever you need to find the balance
I’m not socially rejected! I reject it!!!!😂👏🏻❤️👍🏻
Why no sound?
Check your volume setting lol
If you spoke with me about this, you'd realize a few things.
Something they’re missing, the silence. All it would take was to listen, look out
I have schizophrenia (without hallucinations) and i moved to asia and became a teacher
My life is a living hell
Chainsaw Excalibur Cri... Please come back and find appropriate help. Appropriate help is possible. I support my sister to be able to live in her own home as independently as possible so that she can have as high a quality of life as she can have. Best wishes to you.
No permanezcas en un lugar que te hace daño, ve a dónde te sentías más a gusto.
Yeah, well if so-called "normal" people have trouble understanding and empathizing with so-called "schizophrenic" people then who has the disorder? I personally think that much of society has a problem with communication - people seem afraid to just state how they feel verbally. Perhaps there is an overreliance upon hints and subtle hard to discern facial expressions.
15:02 tells us that the 'normal' brain should recognize fear in the face of this picture of an at best mediocre actress that plays little red ridinghood and does not experience real fear. OOOKaaaay. The level of stupidity in that statement right there is mindblowing. There is way to much bullshit that invades my personal space on a daily basis whenever forced to interact with the outside world to have the patience to voluntarily watch the rest of this video and take anything else this guy has to say on the subject seriously.
He's kind of fast, maybe I'll slow the speed down. I wonder if he has more content than time...?
If this is the expert no wonder why there's so many people who feel lost and definitely so many people who are not getting proper help
