I literally have every single one of these! And far more symptoms. Zero s drive as well. Been this way for the past 18 years. Whats wrong with me? Ill go from sleeping 5 hours a night to 2 hours im 24/7 exhausted and nothing brings me joy. I use to enjoy making things, but i just cant do them anymore and when i try it just feels like a super stressful chore. I have really really bad panic/anxiety attacks to where i feel like im dying and bad chest pain and feel like i cant breathe! And heart palpitations and very hard beating heart. They are so scary! I usually end up going to the e.r. because i am so convinced i am dying. i have zero quality of life and often have the urge and thougts of "ending it all" you know what i mean. At this point i am not living, i am barely surviving! I am so miserable 24/7 or just feel like a zombie! Emotionless I hate it. I miss the old happy,funny me that people loved to be around. Its ruining my Marriage and relationship with my young Children. I used to enjoy playing with them and going to the park etc. Its gotten so bad now i do not leave my home. And i hardly give my babies attention. I feel so very guilty! about it all, but cant seem to find the drive or will to get up and try more than i already try. My wife takes them to the park or store etc. And when they all leave i just cry so much for feeling like such a failure in life. I know they would be fine without me and probably better off. They deserve so much better and i hate myself for it, but i just can not seem to change my feelings and fears, depression etc. I also have social phoebia (agoraphobia) but its gotten way worse over the last 4 years. I am also very overweight from meds and eating away my problems, but adding another! Morbid obesity. Im a huge mess and have tried Doctors etc! And just feel hopeless and my ptsd has been extra bad lately as well. I feel so lost and alone. All of my friends have cut ties with me because i stopped talking to them. I dont really talk to anyone anymore. I just cant.
All of these signs also point towards me lol. I've got ehlers-danlos. It's no wonder they used to put people in institutions for everything under the sun, it all presents so similarly. It's quite interesting, thank you
It's also symptoms for a lot of other conditions and illness. Basically anything can fall under these criteria. I think thee main thing to focus on are the last two, change of perception and religious obsession. At least those defrentiate from most other conditions. Sad thing is, that these symptoms are mostly ignored since they're so common.
@@a10robibrrrttt67 not necessarily, but I'd try to pay attention to changes in your relationships. A lot of people thought I was doing a lot better than when I was depressed but they found that I acted so strangely they began to distance themselves. In my case, symptoms also manifested themselves differently between depression and psychosis. When I was depressed, things didn't bring me enjoyment because I'd focus on the negative moments and stressors it could cause. Now I don't enjoy things because I'm convinced people are always trying to mess with me.
@@dylanwaters3146I'am lately doing extremly well and i have found lately new friend after not having any friends at all so idk if i need to worry about depression. Thank you for the information from now on if i feel depressed i will take a look at my relationships
Yippe I’m now stressed (At the beginning to middle of the year everyone at school said I mostly likely have schizophrenia even tho I’m not diagnosed and still pretty young)
also depression symptoms. dont get anxious guys you are fine. dont start diagnosing yourself on shorts pls. also got through a dark night of the soul, and obsessive spiritual thoughts were part of it, and I am better now. sometimes there is rougher patches in life and you might just need to disconnect from screen and look at yourself directly without disconnecting at all, to understand what the issue is. hope that helped
yea especially if you were raised irreligious and were constantly taught there is some god you have to find and pray to or else you’re life is gonna go to shit. we all have our own form of psychosis which is largely shaped around things we were taught when we were young and our own personal experiences but many ppl go through a stage where they are looking for a deeper spiritual meaning to life which can seem like religious obsession. ppl just want answers to the unknown
@@ralphnasr9180It’s Basivally just a very hard stressful time where there’s a lot of growth you have to go through. You likely had a traumatic experience which opens your eyes to the world and also how your childhood impacted you and your behavior patterns/defense mechanisms wnd you just become more aware. It can be isolating and depressing bc a lot of change is happening and you have to let go of a lot of previously held beliefs which is why it’s called dark night of the soul. For some it’s much worse than others but it’s always darkest before dawn!
Self diagnosed based on a random short that just appeared on my screen. My heart started racing, been feeling different lately, checked 7 boxes; I'm doomed.
@@Tdawgloveppl also need to be realistic and understand extremists of any kind are usually not good ppl and unhinged..whether its religion or politics ppl need to take a step back and ask themselves who or what theyre glorifying even cares or know they even exist..too many right wing trumpets acting like trump gives a shit or even knows they exist lol 😅
I highly suggest you look at jerry marzinsky"s work .... He was in the field for 35 years. . he concluded the voices and symptoms are real ..and caused by predatorial astral beings who feed and prey upon humanity ... He was a psychiatrist for 35 years... He mapped it ...tested his theories
Have a good workout and ditch your phone as much as possible. Usually I can get a good sleep if I workout early. All these devices are not healthy for one’s wellness. Obviously I don’t know if this can help you but it’s simple (as I’m stuck awake because I never exercised::)and worth a try.
I know the symptoms she lists might sound vague, but if you’ve lived with someone who’s developed schizophrenia then you know exactly what she’s talking about. I have type 2 bipolar disorder and depression, but I’ve had it managed and under control for the last 15 years, so when my brother started to act strangely a part of me thought maybe he was just depressed, or worse maybe he also had bipolar disorder. No. His symptoms started vague and progressively became more and more distinct. He was sleeping 3 hours a night, his tone of voice shifted to nearly monotone, he lost 50 pounds and then pretty quickly gained 60 pounds, he stopped flushing the toilet, stopped washing his hair, he couldn’t remember small and even big things things from day to day, he would routinely start cooking something and then completely forget and small fires would start, it got so bad that at one point I was afraid that he developed early onset Alzheimer’s, when he wasn’t completely silent he was speaking manically about the importance of certain stones, how vitamins can heal everything, how sugar was the root of evil and that Jordan Petersen would look through the computer screen and speak to him about allot of this. The symptoms sound vague, but they very much ARE NOT.
That's called "confirmation bias" Leslie. If I need to explain that further to you, you've lost all rationality. The symptoms are vague because like most medical and health vloggers on RUclips they're just a (for now) meat version of an AI text to speech program that read garbage made by AI spam bots on blogs by the terabyte per second by Indian and Chinese grifters looking for ad revenue.
Im pretty certain my sister has the beginning stages of schizophrenia. And she went to the hospital and they said she just has anxiety. No she hears voices, says shes being recorded, people follow her. Seeing otherwordly creatures. Saying she needs a shaman and priest. Im worried. I dont know what to do.!
Recent studies have made the assumption that schizophrenia could be caused by deterioration of brain tissue. If this is true it is very similar to Alzheimer’s Disease as the root cause of it is neurological degeneration due to plaque build up in the brain. Patients diagnosed with Alzheimer’s Disease also have shown similar symptoms of those diagnosed with schizophrenia such as ( obviously) deteriorating memory, delusions, depression, and anxiety. The reason I bring this up is because you mentioned how it looks like Alzheimer’s at first, if it is true that schizophrenia is caused by brain tissue deterioration then that could make sense.
I remember there was a time I was in an abusive relationship and I lost so much weight and my pee was dark and I was so dehydrated depressed and ill. I went to the doc and all my vitamin levels were almost extinct. My body was depleting itself to keep me alive I remember having odd feelings and chronic anxiety and I just saw the world a different color. I’m so glad I’ve healed from this and put that person in jail. Severe stress and toxic people can really mess you up too.
Same happened to me. It’s ptsd and overactivated nervous system. the stress can lead to autoimmune disorders too even if you were not originally at risk. That’s why it’s really important to talk to a psychiatrist and not try to self diagnose eapvaklky after going through something traumatic. Bc PTSD can mimic so many other diseases and can make your body take on a lot of somatic issues like sleep disturbance, loss of focus etc. as well
@@derekenlow7607 yes i did and yes for the most part it did come back. Thank the lord. I ate as god as I could and I supplemented all vitamins I was lacking.
Vitamin B12 deficiency has been highly linked to several psychiatric disorders like impaired memory, irritability, depression, dementia, delirium, schizophrenia and psychosis1.
And allergies. I get a lot of these when having an allergic reaction (it's a slower and more prolonged type, not the anaphylactic kind) so make sure you're not reacting to anything, if you have a tendency towards allergies or autoimmune conditions.
these are also symptoms of depression, insomnia, high levels of stress in general, eating disorder, and anything else you could name that has a generally negative impact on your person
Ur just waking up from the matrix. Schizo is bullshit.. it's normal when we aren't supposed to be controlled . It's totally normal to see that. Now they have all this clinical bullshit naming stuff that it's really not .. they definitely won't share what it really is cause they want u to look crazy
The people saying these are symptoms of other conditions aren’t realizing that this is exactly what makes schizophrenia so hard to diagnose. There is lots of overlap and it’s hard to make that distinction.
That's because none of these "disorders" are real. None of them are truly distinct from each other, because almost all "mental illnesses" are just trauma responses. The APA just wants to try to validate itself by attempting to categorize them into distinct disorders. Mostly to justify the long-term sale of life-shortening medications.
There is anxiety & depression, then there are Delusions . I remember my Mother being afraid to go out side. There were airplanes overhead & see didn't want the pilots to laugh at her .
I am crying my 20 yo daughter is now in crisis unit at state hospital and all this applies, I'd noticed her sleeping tons not doing her makeup she always did and religious ideas were getting so fearful and constantly reading Bible . My little brother has it I'm so afraid for my beautiful girl. She hasn't experienced her life
Hi Sarah. I can't imagine what you must be going through. My heart goes out to you guys. Let us know how she is doing and how you are holding up. All the best. 🌷
I’m so sorry! I will pray for you and your daughter. I came here too because my daughter is experiencing something eerily similar to my aunt and my cousin’s diagnosis (diagnosed schizophrenia). I am hoping she’s not but like you mentioned, she’s constantly reading the bible. Telling me ‘God told her to’ and that she is seeing things. My daughter is diagnosed with autism (high functioning) but now she’s changed. I look at her and she looks listless most times. I know she lacks sleep she’s admitted to that and is getting absent minded too. I don’t know what to do
Look into spiritual awakening! Once u realize this is a prison planet filled with narcissists who deplete you of course u change n God is your only source in this broken world
My son was diagnosed which schizophrenia in May 2022.. it was the toughest time of our life …1 year of pure sheer terror and delusional thoughts that God wanted to kill him and hated him and that death was right around the corner … we could not watch tv… listen to music, could not go outside because he was certain the earth was gonna turn upside down and he would go burning into the sun… no swimming… he thought the pool ground would open up and drag him straight to hell… hearing messages sent by God through tv and music.. that he wanted to kill him… voices that scared the crap out of him.. sleepless nights … fearful days lots of praying .. crying and very emotional times for a year straight.. my poor baby 😢(18 yrs old) just snapped one day! We are on the road to recovery with the help of a place called Henderson’s Mental Health with a program that started a few months before we found them call Early Treatment Center… thank god for them and the wrap around service they provide him, from his psychiatrist, to his therapist and peer specialist and of course medication, he is just starting to live life again… the weight gain and nightmares is a terrible side affect as he gain 60 pounds in a years time and was have terrible nightmares that were just as real as the terror he had in the day time… please pray from my baby and all the people that suffer from this disease! It’s heartbreaking and with help, and a lot of patience, we are grateful and hopeful. ❤❤❤
Tell him God still loves Him I went through something similar I thought God wanted to kill me & vice versa and I was really angry at God. I don't think mine was as bad though. People around me thought i was going crazy but ik it was spiritual. I was also 18-19. I'm 20 now. it was really tormenting but I'm okay now. I didn't take therapy but my mental health healed by reading the Bible everyday and praying everyday. It was a difficult, slowish healing process. Tell Him to seek God ever day. God will heal Him completely. God's healing power is stronger than any mental problem your son may be facing.

They are finding the diabetic drug metformin helps counter the weight gain effect of essential psych meds. Talk to the doc about it As far as the nightmares That’s unacceptable Sounds like they need to put him on a different med.
He's so lucky having such loving parents with him helping him through all this,and I'm certain he's a strong person to be capable of getting along with it,and after all that,he's even way tougher mentally! God is was and will be with him,and your family all the way,I swear no way he can leave you,even if nonbeliever or don't want him or hate him so much and think he's not,I don't feel the presence! He still is there for you! It is uncharacteristic of God,,,he won't he can't! All he can,is he can,he is the good and truth before during and after all,it's like expecting heavy clouds not to rain,or planted seed in the soil not to grow... God bless you and your family,thanks for your time to comment this
The mind has an amazing capability to break away from limiting beliefs and past traumas and to perceive things in a new light- we must also be mindful of our guidance within, and received, throughout this stress and transitions so as not to promote more breakage 💗
Psychiatrist told me that brief psychotic episode is usually prolonged stress and exhaustion topped off with lack of sleep once you start worrying or get wound up. Loneliness is also a factor. Get out of stressful situation, get enough sleep, and focus on making real human connections with others. That can be enough to stop psychosis and prevent it returning.
Same. My mom has this illness and a cousin in law too. Both were triggered by stress. My mom was stressed about my dad. And my cousin lost a child and that triggered it. I’m so scarred about being stressed and getting it triggered that I’m afraid of trying to be more ambitious, stress used to mobilise me, now I’m afraid of it. It doesn’t help that i have most of those prodormal symptoms and that I heard a voice not long ago for the first time.
For me and my family members, infections seem to trigger it. Other stressful events like the demise of a loved one or economic stress of unemployment and loneliness do not seem to trigger it, even though these stressors seem to add to the general stressor burden).
I have ptsd not schizophrenia but have experienced acute psychotic episodes a few times over the past few years and this channel was very comforting to me after the first time and also this reminded me to take my antipsychotic so thanks!
I can relate to some of the signs. I was diagnosed with Autism in 2022. For me, i guess it makes me understand a bit better, as to why i behave like i do in certain situations
@@JoshuaHygaard there’s plenty of established academics who admit this sort of stuff is real it’s just dismissed by general academia. I feel bad for people who end up losing their minds due to the alienation of no one believing them.
these are very common symptoms of other mental disorders also! make sure you don’t self diagnose and see a mental health professional!!! my heart goes out to the people who struggle with mental illness 💕 as a person who struggles with mental illness, it’s not easy!
I KNOW MY BODY AND IF I IDENTIFY AS SCHIZOPHRENIC THEN YOU NEED TO RESPECT MY MENTAL HEALTH IDENTITY CHOICES HOW DARE YOU CHALLENGE THEM!! And tbf why do we trust the medical industry for anything but the meat and bone mechanic work that they are actually proven to be able to accomplish with a decent statistical average? Basically psychology is becoming a religion with extra steps.
@@blaqlabspodcast5816 nope, that’s not what I meant! I’m letting people know that there are many symptoms very similar to schizophrenia that may not be diagnosable schizophrenia! If you believe you have schizophrenia then see a mental health professional and let them know! Stay safe and I hope you are doing well!
I’ve working so hard at fasting. I totally believe what your saying. I schizophrenic and am managing a normal life for almost 7 years now. And one of my changes was diet. I still can’t get my fast goals down though. You got any advice?
@@jimmyh706 Eat liver. 90% of Westerners are deficient in essential nutrients which just happen to be extremely high in liver. Especially the kind of nutrients which support the brain in various ways. So eat liver weekly. Also, nutrients deficiencies cause a greater than normal appetite which make fasting hard.
Thanks. I don’t see me eating liver though. But I get the idea. I have been trying to do 36 hour fast twice a week but I cheat at dinner time. But I’m getting better. Glad to read a fellow believer in the power of fasting. God bless
I spent 15yrs of my life believing i was a schizo and 2yrs taking medicines for this illness, by the time I was 26 I wanted to end my life and then something me stopped the violence.. I wondered who it was then, but then I didn't go through it I was sent to the pyschward and I didn't remember what had happened to me but I'm 32 now and I've been reading and listening to the Bible since I was 29yrs of age but I will mention that soon so in that time when I was 26 I think I felt the holy spirit in that situation where I was going to take my life, He stopped me from wrongfully taking the gift He gave to me. I couldn't explain it until I was 29 when covid began and it hit me in 2022 around January I got hit with covid 19 and it put me in a coma for 2 weeks and I saw a lot of things that happening today now and I heard this voice in the coma and that scared me, but I also saw my loved ones flashing through my mind. I remember hearing from the darkness of the deep and He said "Not Yet" in a loud whispering Gentle voice but it was a deep voice, man I've never would have known until I began reading the Bible and taking notes but I don't believe in this Schizophrenia anymore because 1. The drugs were ruining my brain function and 2. When I began talking to God about my problems and he listened and it is said that God works through you and I understood Him. Those voices you hear are just you allowing the enemy to enter your Kingdom (Mind & Heart) and twist your thoughts into something bad, I then started to think of them as spiritual attacks from the enemy and when I read books like proverbs and psalms it felt like I was equipping his Armor and then I found the sword Matthew 5:3-14 whew I still need to find the others but talking to strangers who need to escape this world's prison and start socializing more soon we won't have access to the internet and our money won't matter anymore yall need to pick up the sword too if you want to wake up again.
Everyone in thisthread please dont use christianity to avoid treating your mental health we are a physicallt disabeled mentally ill human who is christian you can be both disabled and christian -james
I honestly think someone I know is developing schizophrenia, or has schizotypal personality disorder. She says she has PTSD, but I’m not sure that that is the only thing going on. She has these moments where she has really bizarre ideas and actions, that she “snaps out of” when challenged. It becomes much worse when she’s stressed. She is excessively preoccupied with paranormal stuff, like tarot cards, “feeling” people’s presence because they have a “connection”, and things like that. She thought I wanted to “steal” her crush (a person she “feels” close to her when he’s at home, and that she receives “emotional vibes” from him), because I didn’t answer her messages for a day. I was sleeping most of the day because I was medicated due to a severe migraine. She based that idea solely on the fact that he had a party and she heard the his door open and close (which apparently only could have been me). We’re all neighbors in the same building, btw. I have never talked to this man, except for a “hi” once I met him, and he’s not gay, like me. She also regularly thinks I’m communicating with him over Messenger, talking about her… She has also mentioned that she has started to feel unstable, but doesn’t trust therapists. I honestly don’t know what to do.
As someone who's had a few episodes/periods of psychosis in the past, and considering I have some schizophrenic friends. This is how I would describe the initial symptoms of schizophrenia 1. Religious obsessions and change in perception are the ones cited I would mainly associate with early schizophrenia 2. Doubting peoples intentions very often 3. Odd associations that don't really make sense (ex. the weather changes are defined by your mood/ you feel a shiver everytime someone talks about you). 4. You don't have visual hallucinations, but your thoughts are starting to get so loud you can almost hear them. 5. Your vision is sometimes turbulent (sometimes you see very subtle shadowy/light undistinguishable figures). 6. Difficulty processing words, numbers and images. There are many more, feel free to share your own experiences
@@SparrowHills08 That's a tricky question, because it varies from person to person. I'd say these symptoms usually occur before the hallucinations, however people may not notice them, and cogitate some other illnesses. I believe most early onset hallucinations, come from excessive stress and lack of sleep, but never without any prior mild symptoms, such as paranoia and negative symptoms.
Was diagnosed with Autism, Anxiety and Depression. Always had a tendency to mildly hallucinate whenever things seemed calm, thought it was my mind just trying to entertain itself. But it's a little alarming that in the last couple years, all the things mentioned in this video have presented themselves, and hallucinations seem to be worsening...
I remember in 1996 when I had my schizophrenic breakdown at 18 years old. My hygiene was bad and I thought if I sacrificed my life that I'd save the human race. After realizing I wasn't making sense, I noticed that I'm psychotic and needed medical attention. I was that homeless kid walking around Santa Monica Los Angeles who thought he could be the next coming of Christ. Now I'm 45 and medicated, but still partially insane.
Nah you probably are, cause I was born dead with my umbilical cord wrapped 3 times around my neck, and 3 is a spiritual number We're both blessed to be different, and maybe we both are some sort of second coming 🙏
Most of those warning signs describe my behavior in the day or two before a seizure. If you're experiencing something new, or a worsening of behavior, always see your doctor!
@@user-il9nc9tk6i you can’t get addicted to antipsychotics, you can’t exactly abuse them either. Trust me you do not want to advocate for schizophrenics getting off their meds

It’s really just people being programmed to believe something is going on, people want to do better but their programs say no you’ve watched to many horror movies growing up, you must be a monster. I’ve learned that Our environment creates our personality(personal reality) especially when our body is literally hearing everything we say and do to ourselves whether it be from ourselves, parents, friends, tv etc. When you think something is wrong then it will show you something wrong. When you think something is right it will show you something right. Remind yourself out loud every day, I am healthy, loving, loved, successful, when is the last time anyone seeing this “suffering from something” has said that to themselves so that their brain hears them? Wish you all good health and wellness, you are what you eat. Let go of what’s not you and command your best life. You deserve it!!!
I have Bipolar 1 and Schizoaffective disorder. I’m so afraid that I am slipping into another psychosis. My last episode nearly tore my family apart, but I don’t know what to do. It’s like once that part of me takes over I’m no longer a person. I can only sit in this empty space of consciousness and watch as something else controls my mind and body. I get so scared of the things I see and hear and nothing really seems real.. It had been this way since I was about 13 years old. I’m not a stranger to it, but I don’t know how to control it. It’s becoming unbearable to live with these days.
My little cousin 32 yr male is going through this. The religious obsession especially resonates. and in his last episode, he said some really strange and gross things, nothing he would ever say to my aunt and uncle. ended up running In a field and was 51/50. I want to be there for him. When checking in with the younger brother he said, " that's not my brother, the stuff that was said and his accents and tones sounded like demons as of he was possessed" can anyone explain what that actually is?
@@avill012well when one's brain is altered so much from the illness they won't act like the same person. hope he's getting medicine, good luck to him and your family
Don’t be afraid to take medication it is ok it will be ok people take medicine to help and this is no different also get diet change can be helpful sending prayers
i had all of these im 14. this has been happening over the past year and a half. 2 weeks ago i felt an evil presence felt somthing touch me and somthing coming over me like i was being possesed.i cried for 5 seconds for the irst time in 7 months cause im numb i wasnt sad nor scared i dont what happend aswell as laughing hard like some crazy person eratic. i went to get my shoes but stoped because i saw a small white misty figure glide across the front door.and i screemed at the top o my lungs cause the feelings were intense on top of that like dread. i was out for two hours terrifyed to go within 10 feet outside my house and if i looked in the windows id feel like i was being possesed again and felt sick while wailing.before i left the house i scremed so loud i though the police were gonna come.this was my first real phycotic experiance.ive seen things too but not often only 2 a year through out my life from the age of 11. my symptoms have now manifested in being kicked out of school often.ive had my first eposode of mania prier to my eposode of madness and before that severe deppresion.i cant think and my thoughts disorginised and forgotten 10 seconds later wich is driving me crazy. my speech is slured at time and somtimes i just go blank while in the middle of a thought or convosation. ive also just sat in my room staring at a blank wall for an hour my mind vaccant to.but i dont want help plus i dont trust anyone...this is me now and will become not me if helped or cured.sorry bout the spelling , got really bad recentlly for some reason. im writting this only to come back to this if i decide to tell anyone so i can explain incase i cant. things dont look real either like im in a simulation or in a test or game or sm.i have adhd im hyper and have not much concertration but now i have no energy and my concertration is compleatly gone even w the things i like and cant remember things at all and my memory used to be so good. btw these are just the main things i wanted to talk about like i said i have everything she said to
They are actually negative symptoms of schizophrenia that appear early and can help people that have this in their family history or other people that are known to be at risk for this illness to asses their health. It doesn’t mean everybody with this symptoms would develop it.
Good post ty! Yeah as someone who has Schizoaffective Disorder, I feel numb to my own body and everyone else. I feel nothing even when a loved one passes away. I have to focus on making a face to match the other person's face when speaking to them cause I feel no emotions, no feelings at all when talking.
Take vitamin B12! Vitamin B12 deficiency has been highly linked to several psychiatric disorders like impaired memory, irritability, depression, dementia, delirium, schizophrenia and psychosis1.
Dang, that flat affect is just all the time for you I see. I didn't know that to be possible; but at least in that case, you can't really feel suffering either. Not saying it doesn't suck, just noting the bright side
nah..i'm not worried anymore. truly am. i lost interest in life itself a long time ago. im living it for my son. after he grow a little big, you may take me out mother universe🙏🙂
These are all symptoms of depression as well. Men are usually diagnosed with schizophrenia by their early 20s or teens so I’d say your odds of not having it are pretty good. I felt everything you’re referring to until I sought treatment for my depression. There is hope; you deserve to live a fulfilling life. If any form of treatment is available to you, I can’t encourage you enough to give something a shot
@@Sammmc99 hello,could you tell me, what worked best for you? Talking to a therapist over the phone/soon or in person or doing something like a treatment center? I’m m asking because I’m trying to find all the information I can for my son who seems to be having a really hard time.

@@redlilly4016 hi, I’ve been seeing a therapist since i was 14 (I’m 23 now) and I definitely think it has helped me reframe some of my perspectives and have a better sense of what I need to do to live a fulfilling life; however, i don’t think it did a whole lot in the way of depression. Depression is so multifactorial in that what’s causing it differs so much from person to person. For people who’s depression stems more from situational factors (recent breakup, bullying, struggling at a job or in school, difficult home life, lack of a sense of direction or identity) I think therapy can be really helpful just to have someone who you can pour out your feelings to and have them be validated and comforted. For people (like myself) who just seem to have a general disposition to feeling apathetic/anhedonic/no motivation/excessive guilt/ other depressive symptoms for no apparent reason, I think medication can sometimes be the only thing that can really kickstart a recovery. It wasn’t until I went on medication and stayed on it that whatever was messed up with my brain chemistry started to correct itself. Things stopped feeling so heavy. Life didn’t feel so purposeless anymore. I had things that I felt passionate about again. Every medication works differently from person to person but the one I’m specifically on that’s turned my life around is Wellbutrin. If you see your son struggling, it is always worth striking up a conversation with him and seeing how he feels. Many kids would be grateful to have a parent like you who notices these things. I wish your son all the best and hope things get better for him
@@redlilly4016 I'm in the same boat with my 16 year old you just had her first onset of psychosis. The Emergency Room is having her go "business as usual" and then in 3 weeks she's doing partial hospitalization where they will start meds and give her group therapy and individual and she can still do her homework and supposedly keep up with school. They have 2 academic teachers on site.
My daughter went thru phases of psychosis. She was taking pot, Marijuana, then heroin. She lost her 2 kids to CPS. We were penalized for getting her away from a bad marriage and drugs. After multiple psychotic episodes she agreed to 60 day dual treatment mental and drug. I am not so sure it is simply depression ADHD, etc. I truly She has this. You can see her phases. It is hard to believe that in 3 years she basically turned into a reclusive teenager. She cannot function normally. Seems like she is always in her own world. When I match her symptoms she definitely follows a pattern or cycle. We brught it up to her psychiatrist so wondering g if we should seek a second opinion and if so how to properly do this. I know jeroin use can change how the brain is wired and it takes time but she is not getting better, stagnant.
Prayers to you ! Hang in there.I'm going through this exact same thing with my little brother. My older brother committed suicide about 10 years ago and it was the exact same steps as this with my little brother institution after institution released him saying it was all. Drug induced but the drugs were really self medicatinh trying to stop whatever kept him focusing more on his internal thought process and stimuli.
do you know anything about narcissist abuse? I read the bad marriage thing & your whole post. from experience, the bad marriage could have been worse than anyone knew. people in it rarely know. it's so gradual & insidious &.. it's too much to try to explain. but I felt compelled to respond to this because though I didn't lose my son, I could have gone that far had I not had someone tell me about narcissistic abuse & I began to research. & in the healing there is first more destruction because you need to go back over the entirety of the relationship to see it how it was. so you can understand what happened & get back to reality. it messes with memory. it causes sleep disturbances. weight loss & gain. heart issues. addiction as coping mechanism. loss of joy/laughter. caught in fight or flight mode because we begin operating from our mid brain rather than prefrontal cortex so we dont stop to regulate...basically...it is an entire mind f***. literal brain damage occurs. it's horrible & the worst part is that it's not known by the general public. people usually become aware after its happened to them & usually, nobody believes then because narcissistic abuse is such a bad form of psychological violence that it seems fabricated. if you decide to look into this, please know this damage CAN be reversed. it takes work but it absolutely can be healed & she can get her life back. & also don't write it off if you watch a video & some things are resonate, but some don't because for one, there are numerous types of narcissists. my ex was covert narcissist. very dangerous situation that nobody knew about, not even me. until after... The Royal We is a great channel. so is Together We Are the Change Nyx the Narcissist. many good channels out there. hugs to you & your family. I think that there is hope here.
Almost all mental illness starts with pot. They'll insist there's no correlation when you point it out, however, it's a near 100% correlation statistically. And unlike all other drug users, weed users will rabidly defend their poison of choice even claiming it's not a drug, and not a problem. At least other druggies have self awareness.
You articulate very clearly with a sense of purpose/experience. I appreciate your insight and ability to organize and share this. Clearly explaining beyond the conceptual and bring things to the actualized perception for ones self feels daunting. Almost impossible. You seem to know yourself well and are and advocate for your self. I wish the best for you. Thank you for sharing this aspect of mental health. Understanding is a big first step for acceptance. ❤
I recommend researching berberine. organic liquid tincture. dont take the dosage it recommends...it's too much. try a couple drops after each meal. also, a teaspoon of ORGANIC UNREDINED coconut oil, twice a day. I am confident you will see improvement. hugs to you.
@@theeemaven even thou I’m still a kid and are a little confused of what you had said, thank you for your advice. I do not tell my parents or friends except my bestie. Because I didn’t want people worried or smth since kinder. Thank you. Hugs to you too
@modalia_playz i didn't realize you were a kid. My bad. Can you ask your parents to get you some organic unrefined virgin coconut oil & just tell them to read the health benefits on Google? I really think it will help. Also, a messed up gut microbiome can cause memory loss (more bad than good bacteria...can be corrected, don't get worried...if you want suggestions, let me know). Other things for your age (I went through the same thing when I was 8 through 14 actually) is sleep deprivation. Childhood trauma (if someone had said I had trauma back then I'd have thought they were lying but I think everyone does in a way). & I also found out I had adhd. I'm no doctor but I am someone who has gone through a lot & many times kept secrets while spiraling out on the internet trying to find answers. Of course keep paying attention to your body but honey I'm sure it is not some life threatening. Try really hard to get good sleep. To not let yourself get too carried away with worry. & the coconut oil. Memory loss can be associated with not getting enough HEALTHY fats. I have seen people who thought they had dementia, realize it was metabolic...closer to type 2 diabetes which can be turn3d around with diet & ive seen people do so...one woman actually left a memory care facility & moved home after getting on the berberine & coconut oil. I honestly think you being a kid, skip the bernerine. The coconut oil though..truly just Google the benefits of it & ask your parents for some! See how it goes. Tell yourself that you're safe in your body. Go put your barefeet on the grass. In the morning right away try to do it. & spent ten minutes in the morning sun with your bare feet on the ground
Thank you for sharing ! You are saving lives by educating people about what to look for ! I lost my mom and brother to mental illness because I don’t think people where educated enough about mental health issues to understand and be able to recognize the warning signs and unfortunately by the time anyone in their lives including myself due to lack of information and education on the subject , it was to late by the time I myself and others did realize what was truly happening was mental health emergency’s ! We all need to look out for one another …. Stop judging others and being cruel to each other , you never know what someone is going thru on the inside so never judge anyone ! If you notice someone isn’t being themselves and they show some kind of sign or symptoms, try to talk with them about it and if you think they are a danger to themselves or others please reach out ! They have this number 988 it’s like 911 but for mental health issues and emergency !
Never be ashamed or afraid to reach out to someone …. Your life is important you are important. You can always change your story and write your own! Mental illness isn’t a death sentence! Mental illness is just another hurtle in life that we have to help each other jump over ! And they’re are angels out there that want to help each and every person they can get over those hurdles that sometimes if ur alone trying to jump them they just keep tripping you up but dammit you will get over that hurtle ! Your life has purpose, your life isn’t over yet not even close! You are loved ! Reach out !
this comment section is fucked up. this person is so kind to share her very real and valid experiences with a mental illness to call it fake or her "doing too good" or being high functioning being an indicator of her faking an illness is just absurd - y'all aren't psychologist nor therapist and you shouldn't judge someone off of a small 1 minute clip that's also edited.
I had wild hallucinations as a kids up until 12...I was able to stop it through will power alone. Around that time I started smoking weed. So weed and will power was my cure. 36 now and haven't had a episode.
Being alone as a young adult under stress without a good job or support from anyone can lead to psychosis. I just wanted to save the world but I had to save myself first which requires a good grasp on reality. So I cured myself by ignoring the hallucinations and delusions.
I was diagnosed with schizophrenia, but knew I wasn't. So I used my video on phone and recorded when I heard voice's. And my phone recorded the voice's too. This is 100 percent true.
So iam not saying all cases, and iam not saying their ghosts. Fact is I recorded the voice's and I don't know where they came from. And you can only hear the voices, when you play video back. Don't hear them at time. Only sensitive people can hear in real time. Strange.🤯
These are evil spirits for sure. they are very real and their aim is to drive you mad and make you think you're crazy, get you locked up and then get everyone else to affirm this. The Lord Jesus is the only person who can save someone and when we declare His words, those spirits have to flee. I'm not saying everyone who has heard voices is hearing spirits but if you recorded them on a phone then that's proof if was something external! Fear not as God is greater than all evil spirits.
@Lotus-r9t I frequently get attacked by evil spirits in the night, I can feel them trying to come right up close to me etc. Those horrible demons bore the life out of me. People will think we are mad for saying this but certain people have spiritual eyes and others don't.
The comments reassured me. Sigh. I was always worried about developing a serious mental health disorder. I used to complete disability assessments for the government both physical and mental health. The in-depth training not only gave me insight into this but really scared me. Ever since I’ve been self aware about early symptoms and management.
It’s best to get an assessment from a professional. You aren't objective. Also, if you are functioning well, you wont need to worry. Most people with schizophrenia cannot live on their own or work. Many are dependent on family, assisted living, independent living programs. Like only ~25% are completely fine and normal after an episode.
Vitamin B12 deficiency has been highly linked to several psychiatric disorders like impaired memory, irritability, depression, dementia, delirium, schizophrenia and psychosis1.
My symptoms started with distorted memory. I would think something happen and then believe it happened. At first I was fully aware this was happening but it got so bad a whole other history took over. Prozac and Zyprexa cleared it up.
They tried to give a Prozac lick lol. I didn't take it. I suffer instead so I got something to give when I open my black book of truth. You should try it sometime,your body will fight withdrawal but the benefits of keeping your dignity outweigh the risks. I banged slipknot til I was a nonbeliever. It took me to break myself for him to change me. I changed my music to sound pleasing not screaming. Though when my voices scream like Corey,I hit that good green leafy stuff one time and flip a new page. We don't need Prozac or Seroquel. I love you truly,all my schizo psychos we are one ❤
I’m sorry. I make right decisions at the wrong time. I make wrong decisions at right time. I always hurt the ones I love even if I don’t know them. Even if it’s me. Lord help me. ❤
This also described how I felt when I went through menopause. This describes how I feel when the stress of school or work gets to me. This is how I felt living with abusive people who gaslighted me regularly. This is how I felt when I had postpartum depression/anxiety.
You got it 👍 All psychiatrists and doctors (particularly male) need to understand this! Men label women as neurotic and emotionally unstable, far too much due to our hormonal changes that affect our brain. If only they could experience it, along with all of the physical symptoms too.. I'm sure they'd love it!
I’m 17 and I’ve been in and out of psych hospitals sense I was 12 and 8 of these things apply to me. I really hope I’m not developing, I’ve got many diagnoses but none of them really fit me exactly. I’m scared I’m gonna get to like 20 and have to depend on family to care for me
Don't worry, its pretty unlikely. I read a good source, but can't remember where now,but in any case it said out of ten people who experience prodrome type symptoms, only one will go on to develop schizophrenia.
No severe depression doesn’t cause hallucinations and delusions like schizophrenia. I know because I had severe depression last year ( I’m better now tho)
I’m Schizotypal & what freaks me out most about it is potentially developing schizophrenia because I worry that I will change so much that I will essentially be a different person. This is something I feel I struggle with with STPD, but I worry that it would be more intense than it is now
The symptoms she's talking about are signs BEFORE full-blown schizophrenia. Meaning before they start showing the classic symptoms of schizophrenia like hallucinations, delusions, paranoia. People with depressive bipolar don't have delusions or suffer psychosis. People with bipolar with psychotic features do but they are not as severe and pervasive as those with schizophrenia.
These are symptoms before full-blown schizophrenia. What happens is most people often get misdiagnosed at this stage up until they start displaying classic symptoms of the disease.
I had all of these except for the religious obsession. For me, that one was zealous myth-centric obsession (based on my background family's folklores told to me as a child). Though, just as a question: did anyone ever get recurring dreams that are centered around their own psychosis from childhood? I did.
The prodormal state is the silence before the storm so to speak. Prodormal symptoms are negative symptoms that appear before a full blow psycotic episode which will have pozitive symptoms such as delusions. But as long as you are not at risk of schizophrenia, meaning you don’t have a family history of it, your mother didn’t have birth complication when you were born, and you don’t do drugs I think you’re pretty safe as this symptoms can mimic a lot of other things.
I love how all the early warning signs of schizophrenia (except 10) are the same symptoms of depression. 😅 I'm pretty sure that general odd obsessions and paranoia are also an early sign of schizophrenia. (My parent is my reference) If you're experiencing these signs, don't fret, just see a psychologist and a therapist as soon as you can to help you treat these symptoms, learn new skills to manage your symptoms, and make your life, and the lives around you easier. To learn new skills, Therapy is available through your medical insurance or online (think Better help). Psychiatry appointments can help manage or lessen the symptoms themselves. You are going to be okay. You got this. I believe in you.
Girl, you are not sick, you are being possessed literally. Listen to what Jerry Marzinsky say about schizophrenia. He is a professional psychiatrist with immense experience.

i think your wrong about all you said. the last was the one that made me post you need jesus
I literally have every single one of these! And far more symptoms. Zero s drive as well. Been this way for the past 18 years. Whats wrong with me? Ill go from sleeping 5 hours a night to 2 hours im 24/7 exhausted and nothing brings me joy. I use to enjoy making things, but i just cant do them anymore and when i try it just feels like a super stressful chore. I have really really bad panic/anxiety attacks to where i feel like im dying and bad chest pain and feel like i cant breathe! And heart palpitations and very hard beating heart. They are so scary! I usually end up going to the e.r. because i am so convinced i am dying. i have zero quality of life and often have the urge and thougts of "ending it all" you know what i mean. At this point i am not living, i am barely surviving! I am so miserable 24/7 or just feel like a zombie! Emotionless I hate it. I miss the old happy,funny me that people loved to be around. Its ruining my Marriage and relationship with my young Children. I used to enjoy playing with them and going to the park etc. Its gotten so bad now i do not leave my home. And i hardly give my babies attention. I feel so very guilty! about it all, but cant seem to find the drive or will to get up and try more than i already try. My wife takes them to the park or store etc. And when they all leave i just cry so much for feeling like such a failure in life. I know they would be fine without me and probably better off. They deserve so much better and i hate myself for it, but i just can not seem to change my feelings and fears, depression etc. I also have social phoebia (agoraphobia) but its gotten way worse over the last 4 years. I am also very overweight from meds and eating away my problems, but adding another! Morbid obesity. Im a huge mess and have tried Doctors etc! And just feel hopeless and my ptsd has been extra bad lately as well. I feel so lost and alone. All of my friends have cut ties with me because i stopped talking to them. I dont really talk to anyone anymore. I just cant.
All of these signs also point towards me lol. I've got ehlers-danlos. It's no wonder they used to put people in institutions for everything under the sun, it all presents so similarly. It's quite interesting, thank you
It also sounds a lot like someone just going through an existential crisis
But these are also depression symptoms
Prodromal schizophrenia can often resemble depression, so unfortunately, there is an overlap.
It's also symptoms for a lot of other conditions and illness. Basically anything can fall under these criteria.
I think thee main thing to focus on are the last two, change of perception and religious obsession. At least those defrentiate from most other conditions. Sad thing is, that these symptoms are mostly ignored since they're so common.
Is it bad that i have all of these?
@@a10robibrrrttt67 not necessarily, but I'd try to pay attention to changes in your relationships. A lot of people thought I was doing a lot better than when I was depressed but they found that I acted so strangely they began to distance themselves. In my case, symptoms also manifested themselves differently between depression and psychosis. When I was depressed, things didn't bring me enjoyment because I'd focus on the negative moments and stressors it could cause. Now I don't enjoy things because I'm convinced people are always trying to mess with me.
@@dylanwaters3146I'am lately doing extremly well and i have found lately new friend after not having any friends at all so idk if i need to worry about depression. Thank you for the information from now on if i feel depressed i will take a look at my relationships
RIP to all the people with anxiety who now think they could be developing schizophrenia and have another thing to worry about
😂🎉
Hurayyy🎉🎉🎉🎉😂😂.
Yippe I’m now stressed
(At the beginning to middle of the year everyone at school said I mostly likely have schizophrenia even tho I’m not diagnosed and still pretty young)
Exactly. These videos don't help.
✋😭 🪦 1990 - 2024
also depression symptoms. dont get anxious guys you are fine. dont start diagnosing yourself on shorts pls. also got through a dark night of the soul, and obsessive spiritual thoughts were part of it, and I am better now. sometimes there is rougher patches in life and you might just need to disconnect from screen and look at yourself directly without disconnecting at all, to understand what the issue is. hope that helped
Dark night of the soul?
yea especially if you were raised irreligious and were constantly taught there is some god you have to find and pray to or else you’re life is gonna go to shit. we all have our own form of psychosis which is largely shaped around things we were taught when we were young and our own personal experiences but many ppl go through a stage where they are looking for a deeper spiritual meaning to life which can seem like religious obsession. ppl just want answers to the unknown
@@ralphnasr9180It’s Basivally just a very hard stressful time where there’s a lot of growth you have to go through. You likely had a traumatic experience which opens your eyes to the world and also how your childhood impacted you and your behavior patterns/defense mechanisms wnd you just become more aware. It can be isolating and depressing bc a lot of change is happening and you have to let go of a lot of previously held beliefs which is why it’s called dark night of the soul. For some it’s much worse than others but it’s always darkest before dawn!
Self diagnosed based on a random short that just appeared on my screen. My heart started racing, been feeling different lately, checked 7 boxes; I'm doomed.
@@Tdawgloveppl also need to be realistic and understand extremists of any kind are usually not good ppl and unhinged..whether its religion or politics ppl need to take a step back and ask themselves who or what theyre glorifying even cares or know they even exist..too many right wing trumpets acting like trump gives a shit or even knows they exist lol 😅

Don’t self diagnose
Have a good workout and ditch your phone as much as possible. Usually I can get a good sleep if I workout early. All these devices are not healthy for one’s wellness. Obviously I don’t know if this can help you but it’s simple (as I’m stuck awake because I never exercised::)and worth a try.
I know, here I was thinking it was just end of summer blues but no, turns out I'm about to turn schizophrenic 😅

I know the symptoms she lists might sound vague, but if you’ve lived with someone who’s developed schizophrenia then you know exactly what she’s talking about. I have type 2 bipolar disorder and depression, but I’ve had it managed and under control for the last 15 years, so when my brother started to act strangely a part of me thought maybe he was just depressed, or worse maybe he also had bipolar disorder. No. His symptoms started vague and progressively became more and more distinct. He was sleeping 3 hours a night, his tone of voice shifted to nearly monotone, he lost 50 pounds and then pretty quickly gained 60 pounds, he stopped flushing the toilet, stopped washing his hair, he couldn’t remember small and even big things things from day to day, he would routinely start cooking something and then completely forget and small fires would start, it got so bad that at one point I was afraid that he developed early onset Alzheimer’s, when he wasn’t completely silent he was speaking manically about the importance of certain stones, how vitamins can heal everything, how sugar was the root of evil and that Jordan Petersen would look through the computer screen and speak to him about allot of this. The symptoms sound vague, but they very much ARE NOT.
That's called "confirmation bias" Leslie. If I need to explain that further to you, you've lost all rationality. The symptoms are vague because like most medical and health vloggers on RUclips they're just a (for now) meat version of an AI text to speech program that read garbage made by AI spam bots on blogs by the terabyte per second by Indian and Chinese grifters looking for ad revenue.
Im pretty certain my sister has the beginning stages of schizophrenia. And she went to the hospital and they said she just has anxiety. No she hears voices, says shes being recorded, people follow her. Seeing otherwordly creatures. Saying she needs a shaman and priest. Im worried. I dont know what to do.!
Wait, so you’re telling me it’s not normal for Jordan Peterson to pop out of my computer screen?
Recent studies have made the assumption that schizophrenia could be caused by deterioration of brain tissue. If this is true it is very similar to Alzheimer’s Disease as the root cause of it is neurological degeneration due to plaque build up in the brain. Patients diagnosed with Alzheimer’s Disease also have shown similar symptoms of those diagnosed with schizophrenia such as ( obviously) deteriorating memory, delusions, depression, and anxiety. The reason I bring this up is because you mentioned how it looks like Alzheimer’s at first, if it is true that schizophrenia is caused by brain tissue deterioration then that could make sense.
Bring her to a doctor @@Zen-place
I remember there was a time I was in an abusive relationship and I lost so much weight and my pee was dark and I was so dehydrated depressed and ill. I went to the doc and all my vitamin levels were almost extinct. My body was depleting itself to keep me alive I remember having odd feelings and chronic anxiety and I just saw the world a different color. I’m so glad I’ve healed from this and put that person in jail. Severe stress and toxic people can really mess you up too.
Same happened to me. It’s ptsd and overactivated nervous system. the stress can lead to autoimmune disorders too even if you were not originally at risk. That’s why it’s really important to talk to a psychiatrist and not try to self diagnose eapvaklky after going through something traumatic. Bc PTSD can mimic so many other diseases and can make your body take on a lot of somatic issues like sleep disturbance, loss of focus etc. as well
did you have memory loss from that if so has it come back
@@derekenlow7607 yes i did and yes for the most part it did come back. Thank the lord. I ate as god as I could and I supplemented all vitamins I was lacking.

Also generally signs of sleep deprivation, stress, and biotic changes in the gut.
Vitamin B12 deficiency has been highly linked to several psychiatric disorders like impaired memory, irritability, depression, dementia, delirium, schizophrenia and psychosis1.
Just get your B12 levels checked before you take extra. I am mentally ill and my levels are fine.
And allergies. I get a lot of these when having an allergic reaction (it's a slower and more prolonged type, not the anaphylactic kind) so make sure you're not reacting to anything, if you have a tendency towards allergies or autoimmune conditions.
Biotic changes in gut, does that include constipation?

So I've been in the Prodromal phase abt 14 years now...
Ur just waking up from the matrix. Schizo is bullshit.. it's normal when we aren't supposed to be controlled . It's totally normal to see that. Now they have all this clinical bullshit naming stuff that it's really not .. they definitely won't share what it really is cause they want u to look crazy
@@aaliyahhicks8706 That sounds like a DSM-5 explanation for what schizophrenia is.
You probably don't have schizophrenia then. Check with a psychiatrist.
@@Catlily5 Nah, I think I have it.
@@AB-zq4fw It is possible.
The people saying these are symptoms of other conditions aren’t realizing that this is exactly what makes schizophrenia so hard to diagnose. There is lots of overlap and it’s hard to make that distinction.
They realize it. It's obvious. 2 things can be true at once.
That's because none of these "disorders" are real. None of them are truly distinct from each other, because almost all "mental illnesses" are just trauma responses. The APA just wants to try to validate itself by attempting to categorize them into distinct disorders. Mostly to justify the long-term sale of life-shortening medications.
because its Not an illness, its being spiritually attacked.
There is anxiety & depression, then there are Delusions . I remember my Mother being afraid to go out side. There were airplanes overhead & see didn't want the pilots to laugh at her .
Schizophrenia is actually not that hard to diagnose correctly, but yes, these symptoms have many differential diagnoses.
I am crying my 20 yo daughter is now in crisis unit at state hospital and all this applies, I'd noticed her sleeping tons not doing her makeup she always did and religious ideas were getting so fearful and constantly reading Bible . My little brother has it I'm so afraid for my beautiful girl. She hasn't experienced her life
Prayers 🙏🏻
Hi Sarah. I can't imagine what you must be going through. My heart goes out to you guys.
Let us know how she is doing and how you are holding up.
All the best. 🌷
I’m so sorry! I will pray for you and your daughter. I came here too because my daughter is experiencing something eerily similar to my aunt and my cousin’s diagnosis (diagnosed schizophrenia). I am hoping she’s not but like you mentioned, she’s constantly reading the bible. Telling me ‘God told her to’ and that she is seeing things. My daughter is diagnosed with autism (high functioning) but now she’s changed. I look at her and she looks listless most times. I know she lacks sleep she’s admitted to that and is getting absent minded too. I don’t know what to do
Look into spiritual awakening! Once u realize this is a prison planet filled with narcissists who deplete you of course u change n God is your only source in this broken world
Also could be the trauma associated with narcissist abuse and domestic violence.
Spot on. Thank you for saying this ❤
Yep.
Omg I thought at 33 I was becomin a skitz nope just low standards self love lack and my third eye opened😅
But this lady has the disease her self so you doubt her wtf you think she doesn't know what she is talking about
@@TheBigTripper420 Not doubting the lady at all. I took it to mean people outside of this diagnosis can also experience similar symptoms ❤
My son was diagnosed which schizophrenia in May 2022.. it was the toughest time of our life …1 year of pure sheer terror and delusional thoughts that God wanted to kill him and hated him and that death was right around the corner … we could not watch tv… listen to music, could not go outside because he was certain the earth was gonna turn upside down and he would go burning into the sun… no swimming… he thought the pool ground would open up and drag him straight to hell… hearing messages sent by God through tv and music.. that he wanted to kill him… voices that scared the crap out of him.. sleepless nights … fearful days lots of praying .. crying and very emotional times for a year straight.. my poor baby 😢(18 yrs old) just snapped one day! We are on the road to recovery with the help of a place called Henderson’s Mental Health with a program that started a few months before we found them call Early Treatment Center… thank god for them and the wrap around service they provide him, from his psychiatrist, to his therapist and peer specialist and of course medication, he is just starting to live life again… the weight gain and nightmares is a terrible side affect as he gain 60 pounds in a years time and was have terrible nightmares that were just as real as the terror he had in the day time… please pray from my baby and all the people that suffer from this disease! It’s heartbreaking and with help, and a lot of patience, we are grateful and hopeful. ❤❤❤
Tell him God still loves Him I went through something similar I thought God wanted to kill me & vice versa and I was really angry at God. I don't think mine was as bad though. People around me thought i was going crazy but ik it was spiritual. I was also 18-19. I'm 20 now. it was really tormenting but I'm okay now. I didn't take therapy but my mental health healed by reading the Bible everyday and praying everyday. It was a difficult, slowish healing process. Tell Him to seek God ever day. God will heal Him completely. God's healing power is stronger than any mental problem your son may be facing.

They are finding the diabetic drug metformin helps counter the weight gain effect of essential psych meds.
Talk to the doc about it
As far as the nightmares
That’s unacceptable
Sounds like they need to put him on a different med.
He's so lucky having such loving parents with him helping him through all this,and I'm certain he's a strong person to be capable of getting along with it,and after all that,he's even way tougher mentally!
God is was and will be with him,and your family all the way,I swear no way he can leave you,even if nonbeliever or don't want him or hate him so much and think he's not,I don't feel the presence!
He still is there for you!
It is uncharacteristic of God,,,he won't he can't!
All he can,is he can,he is the good and truth before during and after all,it's like expecting heavy clouds not to rain,or planted seed in the soil not to grow...
God bless you and your family,thanks for your time to comment this

The mind has an amazing capability to break away from limiting beliefs and past traumas and to perceive things in a new light- we must also be mindful of our guidance within, and received, throughout this stress and transitions so as not to promote more breakage 💗
I have a few family members that have had schizophrenia and the main trigger for them was stress. Stress in their lives or minds (perceived stress).
Psychiatrist told me that brief psychotic episode is usually prolonged stress and exhaustion topped off with lack of sleep once you start worrying or get wound up.
Loneliness is also a factor.
Get out of stressful situation, get enough sleep, and focus on making real human connections with others. That can be enough to stop psychosis and prevent it returning.
@@louisehogg8472 thank you, these are great. Also just thinking positive in general (especially about other people) works wonders too.
Are you a native american person I love native american people I call them original americans because we stole their land an lives
Same. My mom has this illness and a cousin in law too. Both were triggered by stress. My mom was stressed about my dad. And my cousin lost a child and that triggered it.
I’m so scarred about being stressed and getting it triggered that I’m afraid of trying to be more ambitious, stress used to mobilise me, now I’m afraid of it.
It doesn’t help that i have most of those prodormal symptoms and that I heard a voice not long ago for the first time.
For me and my family members, infections seem to trigger it. Other stressful events like the demise of a loved one or economic stress of unemployment and loneliness do not seem to trigger it, even though these stressors seem to add to the general stressor burden).
I have ptsd not schizophrenia but have experienced acute psychotic episodes a few times over the past few years and this channel was very comforting to me after the first time and also this reminded me to take my antipsychotic so thanks!
I can relate to some of the signs. I was diagnosed with Autism in 2022. For me, i guess it makes me understand a bit better, as to why i behave like i do in certain situations
My son thinks he's predicting the future and that he's been given a premonition...his anxiety is at an all time high...
Can't blame him. I deal with that too. Sometimes I get these weird visions, and somehow they come true too....

Fasting & changing your diet can help with this. My anxiety has gotten so much better. It’s pretty much non-existent since I’ve started fasting
I’ve working so hard at fasting. I totally believe what your saying. I schizophrenic and am managing a normal life for almost 7 years now. And one of my changes was diet. I still can’t get my fast goals down though. You got any advice?
@@jimmyh706 Eat liver. 90% of Westerners are deficient in essential nutrients which just happen to be extremely high in liver. Especially the kind of nutrients which support the brain in various ways. So eat liver weekly. Also, nutrients deficiencies cause a greater than normal appetite which make fasting hard.
Thanks. I don’t see me eating liver though. But I get the idea. I have been trying to do 36 hour fast twice a week but I cheat at dinner time. But I’m getting better. Glad to read a fellow believer in the power of fasting. God bless

Combine this with mushrooms, quantum mechanics, the Necronomicon, and Phillip K Dick and you're in for a helluva ride.
I spent 15yrs of my life believing i was a schizo and 2yrs taking medicines for this illness, by the time I was 26 I wanted to end my life and then something me stopped the violence.. I wondered who it was then, but then I didn't go through it I was sent to the pyschward and I didn't remember what had happened to me but I'm 32 now and I've been reading and listening to the Bible since I was 29yrs of age but I will mention that soon so in that time when I was 26 I think I felt the holy spirit in that situation where I was going to take my life, He stopped me from wrongfully taking the gift He gave to me. I couldn't explain it until I was 29 when covid began and it hit me in 2022 around January I got hit with covid 19 and it put me in a coma for 2 weeks and I saw a lot of things that happening today now and I heard this voice in the coma and that scared me, but I also saw my loved ones flashing through my mind. I remember hearing from the darkness of the deep and He said "Not Yet" in a loud whispering Gentle voice but it was a deep voice, man I've never would have known until I began reading the Bible and taking notes but I don't believe in this Schizophrenia anymore because 1. The drugs were ruining my brain function and 2. When I began talking to God about my problems and he listened and it is said that God works through you and I understood Him. Those voices you hear are just you allowing the enemy to enter your Kingdom (Mind & Heart) and twist your thoughts into something bad, I then started to think of them as spiritual attacks from the enemy and when I read books like proverbs and psalms it felt like I was equipping his Armor and then I found the sword Matthew 5:3-14 whew I still need to find the others but talking to strangers who need to escape this world's prison and start socializing more soon we won't have access to the internet and our money won't matter anymore yall need to pick up the sword too if you want to wake up again.

Thank you having the courage to talk about it and break the stigma.... 🙏
Don't forget if someone persistently curses you, can feel all 10 symptoms.
I honestly think someone I know is developing schizophrenia, or has schizotypal personality disorder. She says she has PTSD, but I’m not sure that that is the only thing going on. She has these moments where she has really bizarre ideas and actions, that she “snaps out of” when challenged. It becomes much worse when she’s stressed.
She is excessively preoccupied with paranormal stuff, like tarot cards, “feeling” people’s presence because they have a “connection”, and things like that.
She thought I wanted to “steal” her crush (a person she “feels” close to her when he’s at home, and that she receives “emotional vibes” from him), because I didn’t answer her messages for a day. I was sleeping most of the day because I was medicated due to a severe migraine.
She based that idea solely on the fact that he had a party and she heard the his door open and close (which apparently only could have been me). We’re all neighbors in the same building, btw.
I have never talked to this man, except for a “hi” once I met him, and he’s not gay, like me. She also regularly thinks I’m communicating with him over Messenger, talking about her… She has also mentioned that she has started to feel unstable, but doesn’t trust therapists. I honestly don’t know what to do.
As someone who's had a few episodes/periods of psychosis in the past, and considering I have some schizophrenic friends. This is how I would describe the initial symptoms of schizophrenia
1. Religious obsessions and change in perception are the ones cited I would mainly associate with early schizophrenia
2. Doubting peoples intentions very often
3. Odd associations that don't really make sense (ex. the weather changes are defined by your mood/ you feel a shiver everytime someone talks about you).
4. You don't have visual hallucinations, but your thoughts are starting to get so loud you can almost hear them.
5. Your vision is sometimes turbulent (sometimes you see very subtle shadowy/light undistinguishable figures).
6. Difficulty processing words, numbers and images.
There are many more, feel free to share your own experiences
And these symptoms always occur before any voices? I think a common misunderstanding is that heading voices is the initial symptom!
@@SparrowHills08 That's a tricky question, because it varies from person to person. I'd say these symptoms usually occur before the hallucinations, however people may not notice them, and cogitate some other illnesses. I believe most early onset hallucinations, come from excessive stress and lack of sleep, but never without any prior mild symptoms, such as paranoia and negative symptoms.

Ah crap
Was diagnosed with Autism, Anxiety and Depression. Always had a tendency to mildly hallucinate whenever things seemed calm, thought it was my mind just trying to entertain itself.
But it's a little alarming that in the last couple years, all the things mentioned in this video have presented themselves, and hallucinations seem to be worsening...
Wow. I suffer anxiety. You just described all my symptoms. 😮
You can also suffer from food intolerance, especially gluten.

I remember in 1996 when I had my schizophrenic breakdown at 18 years old. My hygiene was bad and I thought if I sacrificed my life that I'd save the human race. After realizing I wasn't making sense, I noticed that I'm psychotic and needed medical attention. I was that homeless kid walking around Santa Monica Los Angeles who thought he could be the next coming of Christ. Now I'm 45 and medicated, but still partially insane.

I literally have every single one of these! And far more symptoms. Zero s drive as well. Been this way for the past 18 years. Whats wrong with me? Ill go from sleeping 5 hours a night to 2 hours im 24/7 exhausted and nothing brings me joy. I use to enjoy making things, but i just cant do them anymore and when i try it just feels like a super stressful chore. I have really really bad panic/anxiety attacks to where i feel like im dying and bad chest pain and feel like i cant breathe! And heart palpitations and very hard beating heart. They are so scary! I usually end up going to the e.r. because i am so convinced i am dying. i have zero quality of life and often have the urge and thougts of "ending it all" you know what i mean. At this point i am not living, i am barely surviving! I am so miserable 24/7 or just feel like a zombie! Emotionless I hate it. I miss the old happy,funny me that people loved to be around. Its ruining my Marriage and relationship with my young Children. I used to enjoy playing with them and going to the park etc. Its gotten so bad now i do not leave my home. And i hardly give my babies attention. I feel so very guilty! about it all, but cant seem to find the drive or will to get up and try more than i already try. My wife takes them to the park or store etc. And when they all leave i just cry so much for feeling like such a failure in life. I know they would be fine without me and probably better off. They deserve so much better and i hate myself for it, but i just can not seem to change my feelings and fears, depression etc. I also have social phoebia (agoraphobia) but its gotten way worse over the last 4 years. I am also very overweight from meds and eating away my problems, but adding another! Morbid obesity. Im a huge mess and have tried Doctors etc! And just feel hopeless and my ptsd has been extra bad lately as well. I feel so lost and alone. All of my friends have cut ties with me because i stopped talking to them. I dont really talk to anyone anymore. I just cant.
It’s really just people being programmed to believe something is going on, people want to do better but their programs say no you’ve watched to many horror movies growing up, you must be a monster. I’ve learned that Our environment creates our personality(personal reality) especially when our body is literally hearing everything we say and do to ourselves whether it be from ourselves, parents, friends, tv etc. When you think something is wrong
then it will show you something wrong. When you think something is right it will show you something right. Remind yourself out loud every day, I am healthy, loving, loved, successful, when is the last time anyone seeing this “suffering from something” has said that to themselves so that their brain hears them? Wish you all good health and wellness, you are what you eat. Let go of what’s not you and command your best life. You deserve it!!!
I have Bipolar 1 and Schizoaffective disorder. I’m so afraid that I am slipping into another psychosis. My last episode nearly tore my family apart, but I don’t know what to do. It’s like once that part of me takes over I’m no longer a person. I can only sit in this empty space of consciousness and watch as something else controls my mind and body. I get so scared of the things I see and hear and nothing really seems real.. It had been this way since I was about 13 years old. I’m not a stranger to it, but I don’t know how to control it. It’s becoming unbearable to live with these days.
Me too sometimes i feel as if i am possessed
My little cousin 32 yr male is going through this. The religious obsession especially resonates. and in his last episode, he said some really strange and gross things, nothing he would ever say to my aunt and uncle. ended up running In a field and was 51/50. I want to be there for him. When checking in with the younger brother he said, " that's not my brother, the stuff that was said and his accents and tones sounded like demons as of he was possessed" can anyone explain what that actually is?
@@avill012well when one's brain is altered so much from the illness they won't act like the same person. hope he's getting medicine, good luck to him and your family

Thank you for what you do. It’s so unique here on RUclips and it helped me through (what I thought was) my first psychotic episode.
And what was it really?
i had all of these im 14. this has been happening over the past year and a half. 2 weeks ago i felt an evil presence felt somthing touch me and somthing coming over me like i was being possesed.i cried for 5 seconds for the irst time in 7 months cause im numb i wasnt sad nor scared i dont what happend aswell as laughing hard like some crazy person eratic. i went to get my shoes but stoped because i saw a small white misty figure glide across the front door.and i screemed at the top o my lungs cause the feelings were intense on top of that like dread. i was out for two hours terrifyed to go within 10 feet outside my house and if i looked in the windows id feel like i was being possesed again and felt sick while wailing.before i left the house i scremed so loud i though the police were gonna come.this was my first real phycotic experiance.ive seen things too but not often only 2 a year through out my life from the age of 11. my symptoms have now manifested in being kicked out of school often.ive had my first eposode of mania prier to my eposode of madness and before that severe deppresion.i cant think and my thoughts disorginised and forgotten 10 seconds later wich is driving me crazy. my speech is slured at time and somtimes i just go blank while in the middle of a thought or convosation. ive also just sat in my room staring at a blank wall for an hour my mind vaccant to.but i dont want help plus i dont trust anyone...this is me now and will become not me if helped or cured.sorry bout the spelling , got really bad recentlly for some reason. im writting this only to come back to this if i decide to tell anyone so i can explain incase i cant. things dont look real either like im in a simulation or in a test or game or sm.i have adhd im hyper and have not much concertration but now i have no energy and my concertration is compleatly gone even w the things i like and cant remember things at all and my memory used to be so good. btw these are just the main things i wanted to talk about like i said i have everything she said to
These all sound normal. We aren’t built to work and feel 110% all the time. These symptoms sound like a result of a Burnout
Bingo
They are actually negative symptoms of schizophrenia that appear early and can help people that have this in their family history or other people that are known to be at risk for this illness to asses their health. It doesn’t mean everybody with this symptoms would develop it.
Good post ty! Yeah as someone who has Schizoaffective Disorder, I feel numb to my own body and everyone else. I feel nothing even when a loved one passes away. I have to focus on making a face to match the other person's face when speaking to them cause I feel no emotions, no feelings at all when talking.

@@redlilly4016 hi, I’ve been seeing a therapist since i was 14 (I’m 23 now) and I definitely think it has helped me reframe some of my perspectives and have a better sense of what I need to do to live a fulfilling life; however, i don’t think it did a whole lot in the way of depression. Depression is so multifactorial in that what’s causing it differs so much from person to person. For people who’s depression stems more from situational factors (recent breakup, bullying, struggling at a job or in school, difficult home life, lack of a sense of direction or identity) I think therapy can be really helpful just to have someone who you can pour out your feelings to and have them be validated and comforted.
For people (like myself) who just seem to have a general disposition to feeling apathetic/anhedonic/no motivation/excessive guilt/ other depressive symptoms for no apparent reason, I think medication can sometimes be the only thing that can really kickstart a recovery. It wasn’t until I went on medication and stayed on it that whatever was messed up with my brain chemistry started to correct itself. Things stopped feeling so heavy. Life didn’t feel so purposeless anymore. I had things that I felt passionate about again. Every medication works differently from person to person but the one I’m specifically on that’s turned my life around is Wellbutrin.
If you see your son struggling, it is always worth striking up a conversation with him and seeing how he feels. Many kids would be grateful to have a parent like you who notices these things. I wish your son all the best and hope things get better for him
@@redlilly4016 I'm in the same boat with my 16 year old you just had her first onset of psychosis.

I still can't understand why mental illness its such a horrific ailments for people living in denial like my brother 😢. Life is unfair for some
I wonder how people's life is without mental illness
My daughter went thru phases of psychosis. She was taking pot, Marijuana, then heroin. She lost her 2 kids to CPS. We were penalized for getting her away from a bad marriage and drugs. After multiple psychotic episodes she agreed to 60 day dual treatment mental and drug. I am not so sure it is simply depression ADHD, etc. I truly She has this. You can see her phases. It is hard to believe that in 3 years she basically turned into a reclusive teenager. She cannot function normally. Seems like she is always in her own world. When I match her symptoms she definitely follows a pattern or cycle. We brught it up to her psychiatrist so wondering g if we should seek a second opinion and if so how to properly do this. I know jeroin use can change how the brain is wired and it takes time but she is not getting better, stagnant.
Well I pray for you and your daughter
Prayers to you ! Hang in there.I'm going through this exact same thing with my little brother. My older brother committed suicide about 10 years ago and it was the exact same steps as this with my little brother institution after institution released him saying it was all. Drug induced but the drugs were really self medicatinh trying to stop whatever kept him focusing more on his internal thought process and stimuli.
do you know anything about narcissist abuse? I read the bad marriage thing & your whole post. from experience, the bad marriage could have been worse than anyone knew. people in it rarely know. it's so gradual & insidious &.. it's too much to try to explain. but I felt compelled to respond to this because though I didn't lose my son, I could have gone that far had I not had someone tell me about narcissistic abuse & I began to research. & in the healing there is first more destruction because you need to go back over the entirety of the relationship to see it how it was. so you can understand what happened & get back to reality. it messes with memory. it causes sleep disturbances. weight loss & gain. heart issues. addiction as coping mechanism. loss of joy/laughter. caught in fight or flight mode because we begin operating from our mid brain rather than prefrontal cortex so we dont stop to regulate...basically...it is an entire mind f***. literal brain damage occurs. it's horrible & the worst part is that it's not known by the general public. people usually become aware after its happened to them & usually, nobody believes then because narcissistic abuse is such a bad form of psychological violence that it seems fabricated. if you decide to look into this, please know this damage CAN be reversed. it takes work but it absolutely can be healed & she can get her life back. & also don't write it off if you watch a video & some things are resonate, but some don't because for one, there are numerous types of narcissists. my ex was covert narcissist. very dangerous situation that nobody knew about, not even me. until after...
The Royal We is a great channel. so is Together We Are the Change Nyx the Narcissist. many good channels out there. hugs to you & your family. I think that there is hope here.
Maybe she needs Suboxone? It could be that she can't function normally without opiates now.
Almost all mental illness starts with pot. They'll insist there's no correlation when you point it out, however, it's a near 100% correlation statistically. And unlike all other drug users, weed users will rabidly defend their poison of choice even claiming it's not a drug, and not a problem. At least other druggies have self awareness.
You articulate very clearly with a sense of purpose/experience. I appreciate your insight and ability to organize and share this. Clearly explaining beyond the conceptual and bring things to the actualized perception for ones self feels daunting. Almost impossible. You seem to know yourself well and are and advocate for your self. I wish the best for you. Thank you for sharing this aspect of mental health. Understanding is a big first step for acceptance. ❤

@modalia_playz i didn't realize you were a kid. My bad. Can you ask your parents to get you some organic unrefined virgin coconut oil & just tell them to read the health benefits on Google? I really think it will help. Also, a messed up gut microbiome can cause memory loss (more bad than good bacteria...can be corrected, don't get worried...if you want suggestions, let me know). Other things for your age (I went through the same thing when I was 8 through 14 actually) is sleep deprivation. Childhood trauma (if someone had said I had trauma back then I'd have thought they were lying but I think everyone does in a way). & I also found out I had adhd. I'm no doctor but I am someone who has gone through a lot & many times kept secrets while spiraling out on the internet trying to find answers. Of course keep paying attention to your body but honey I'm sure it is not some life threatening. Try really hard to get good sleep. To not let yourself get too carried away with worry. & the coconut oil. Memory loss can be associated with not getting enough HEALTHY fats. I have seen people who thought they had dementia, realize it was metabolic...closer to type 2 diabetes which can be turn3d around with diet & ive seen people do so...one woman actually left a memory care facility & moved home after getting on the berberine & coconut oil. I honestly think you being a kid, skip the bernerine. The coconut oil though..truly just Google the benefits of it & ask your parents for some! See how it goes. Tell yourself that you're safe in your body. Go put your barefeet on the grass. In the morning right away try to do it. & spent ten minutes in the morning sun with your bare feet on the ground
#10 hit hard. My ex tried giving me a handful of pills me while yelling at me in 3rd person for disobeying God.
Thank you for sharing ! You are saving lives by educating people about what to look for ! I lost my mom and brother to mental illness because I don’t think people where educated enough about mental health issues to understand and be able to recognize the warning signs and unfortunately by the time anyone in their lives including myself due to lack of information and education on the subject , it was to late by the time I myself and others did realize what was truly happening was mental health emergency’s ! We all need to look out for one another …. Stop judging others and being cruel to each other , you never know what someone is going thru on the inside so never judge anyone ! If you notice someone isn’t being themselves and they show some kind of sign or symptoms, try to talk with them about it and if you think they are a danger to themselves or others please reach out ! They have this number 988 it’s like 911 but for mental health issues and emergency !
Never be ashamed or afraid to reach out to someone …. Your life is important you are important. You can always change your story and write your own! Mental illness isn’t a death sentence! Mental illness is just another hurtle in life that we have to help each other jump over ! And they’re are angels out there that want to help each and every person they can get over those hurdles that sometimes if ur alone trying to jump them they just keep tripping you up but dammit you will get over that hurtle ! Your life has purpose, your life isn’t over yet not even close! You are loved ! Reach out !
this comment section is fucked up. this person is so kind to share her very real and valid experiences with a mental illness to call it fake or her "doing too good" or being high functioning being an indicator of her faking an illness is just absurd - y'all aren't psychologist nor therapist and you shouldn't judge someone off of a small 1 minute clip that's also edited.
Yep
These might be the broadest symptoms for any phase of schizophrenia I’ve ever heard
That's makes sense on 8 that's me. Thx you for what you're doing. God bless you.
I had wild hallucinations as a kids up until 12...I was able to stop it through will power alone. Around that time I started smoking weed. So weed and will power was my cure. 36 now and haven't had a episode.
Some people with schizophrenia get worse when they smoke weed. In fact a lot do. So be careful with smoking weed.
@Cat Lily Good to know. In my case I got better. You're saying it's bad for some people well I hope they can find a cure.
@@Catlily5 you're correct that's how it all started for me
@@Nancy-ow9wy Sorry to hear that.
doubt it, prob your genetics, when you got older your brain stabilized
You're amazing honestly love seeing your posts they're insightful and really informative thank you for these amazing vids!
So all of that and the fact that I have heard voices that aren’t mine, and seen people who aren’t there- should I tell my therapist?
Being alone as a young adult under stress without a good job or support from anyone can lead to psychosis. I just wanted to save the world but I had to save myself first which requires a good grasp on reality. So I cured myself by ignoring the hallucinations and delusions.
Strength 💪 dude! I had to do something similar for my panic attacks
I am having ALL those within the last year. I chalked it up to the onset of menopause. I hope it's just menopause 😢
Wow! This is super important information!
Thank you for all the work you do!
Happy to get to know you!
Sounds like depression too
My daughter started hearing buzzing in her ears and then it turned to muffled whispers, then full on voices.
I was diagnosed with schizophrenia, but knew I wasn't. So I used my video on phone and recorded when I heard voice's. And my phone recorded the voice's too. This is 100 percent true.
So iam not saying all cases, and iam not saying their ghosts. Fact is I recorded the voice's and I don't know where they came from. And you can only hear the voices, when you play video back. Don't hear them at time. Only sensitive people can hear in real time. Strange.🤯
These are evil spirits for sure. they are very real and their aim is to drive you mad and make you think you're crazy, get you locked up and then get everyone else to affirm this. The Lord Jesus is the only person who can save someone and when we declare His words, those spirits have to flee. I'm not saying everyone who has heard voices is hearing spirits but if you recorded them on a phone then that's proof if was something external! Fear not as God is greater than all evil spirits.
@Lotus-r9t I frequently get attacked by evil spirits in the night, I can feel them trying to come right up close to me etc. Those horrible demons bore the life out of me. People will think we are mad for saying this but certain people have spiritual eyes and others don't.
These are also signs of spiritual awakening. So thankful I grew up in an esoteric belief system or I’d be misdiagnosed with a mental illness.
can you elaborate on your experience?
I never knew the name for this I call it goin down the rabbit hole. Thanks for the info.
The comments reassured me. Sigh. I was always worried about developing a serious mental health disorder. I used to complete disability assessments for the government both physical and mental health. The in-depth training not only gave me insight into this but really scared me. Ever since I’ve been self aware about early symptoms and management.
It’s best to get an assessment from a professional. You aren't objective. Also, if you are functioning well, you wont need to worry. Most people with schizophrenia cannot live on their own or work. Many are dependent on family, assisted living, independent living programs. Like only ~25% are completely fine and normal after an episode.
Me having all these symptoms...
Me: I'm just getting old...
Her: Beginning stages of schizophrenia...
😳😳😳
Vitamin B12 deficiency has been highly linked to several psychiatric disorders like impaired memory, irritability, depression, dementia, delirium, schizophrenia and psychosis1.
Without delusion your symptoms will be depression
I cured my mom's schizophrenia with vitamin B12. Her schizophrenia is all gone!
@@Jamie-lb7ehwtf, you're the one with schizophrenia for thinking vitamin b12 is the almighty savior of people with mental disorders 💀
@@Jamie-lb7eh the thing is that i have those symptoms and i eat so much meat fish and stuff containing b12 that i definitely don't have a lack of it
My symptoms started with distorted memory. I would think something happen and then believe it happened. At first I was fully aware this was happening but it got so bad a whole other history took over. Prozac and Zyprexa cleared it up.
They tried to give a Prozac lick lol. I didn't take it. I suffer instead so I got something to give when I open my black book of truth. You should try it sometime,your body will fight withdrawal but the benefits of keeping your dignity outweigh the risks. I banged slipknot til I was a nonbeliever. It took me to break myself for him to change me. I changed my music to sound pleasing not screaming. Though when my voices scream like Corey,I hit that good green leafy stuff one time and flip a new page. We don't need Prozac or Seroquel. I love you truly,all my schizo psychos we are one ❤
I’m sorry. I make right decisions at the wrong time. I make wrong decisions at right time. I always hurt the ones I love even if I don’t know them. Even if it’s me. Lord help me. ❤
I know you know this. I watch you often. I am bipolar. This sounds a lot like bipolar also.
Hi bipolar, I'm dad!
You nailed every single symptom.
Ayyyy praise God. Religiously blessed and obsessed with the king. 👑
This also described how I felt when I went through menopause. This describes how I feel when the stress of school or work gets to me. This is how I felt living with abusive people who gaslighted me regularly. This is how I felt when I had postpartum depression/anxiety.
You got it 👍 All psychiatrists and doctors (particularly male) need to understand this! Men label women as neurotic and emotionally unstable, far too much due to our hormonal changes that affect our brain. If only they could experience it, along with all of the physical symptoms too.. I'm sure they'd love it!
This ain't about you tho. It's about schizophrenia before it becomes full blown.
I’m 17 and I’ve been in and out of psych hospitals sense I was 12 and 8 of these things apply to me. I really hope I’m not developing, I’ve got many diagnoses but none of them really fit me exactly. I’m scared I’m gonna get to like 20 and have to depend on family to care for me
Don't worry, its pretty unlikely. I read a good source, but can't remember where now,but in any case it said out of ten people who experience prodrome type symptoms, only one will go on to develop schizophrenia.
Thank you for the content it’s a great help!
You just described severe depression.
No sir you just described severe depression
No severe depression doesn’t cause hallucinations and delusions like schizophrenia. I know because I had severe depression last year ( I’m better now tho)
Thank you this was very helpful ❤
I’m Schizotypal & what freaks me out most about it is potentially developing schizophrenia because I worry that I will change so much that I will essentially be a different person. This is something I feel I struggle with with STPD, but I worry that it would be more intense than it is now
How can you tell these (negative affect) schizophrenia from depressive bipolar?
The symptoms she's talking about are signs BEFORE full-blown schizophrenia. Meaning before they start showing the classic symptoms of schizophrenia like hallucinations, delusions, paranoia. People with depressive bipolar don't have delusions or suffer psychosis. People with bipolar with psychotic features do but they are not as severe and pervasive as those with schizophrenia.
Great video! Especially knowing my oldest brother has schizophrenia.
These symptoms sound a lot like symptoms of depression. How can one tell the difference?
Do you get psychotic after going through these symptoms?
Probably you go crazy after that phase
These are symptoms before full-blown schizophrenia. What happens is most people often get misdiagnosed at this stage up until they start displaying classic symptoms of the disease.
Thank you for the information!
schizophrenia, autism, and cptsd have completely destroyed my life.
I had all of these except for the religious obsession. For me, that one was zealous myth-centric obsession (based on my background family's folklores told to me as a child). Though, just as a question: did anyone ever get recurring dreams that are centered around their own psychosis from childhood? I did.
Can you explain more about religious obsession? I never heard about this related to schyzofreniya
Well when people start hearing voices in their head, some people think it's God trying to talk to them or something and get all religous
Also when they are paranoid, I assume a lot of them often turn to religion as a form of coping, which eventually turns obsessive.
Thank you for sharing your experience. ☮️🩵🙏🏻🕉️
I think this symptoms can overlaps in many different disease like depression. But in schizophrenia you develop delusion.
The prodormal state is the silence before the storm so to speak. Prodormal symptoms are negative symptoms that appear before a full blow psycotic episode which will have pozitive symptoms such as delusions.
But as long as you are not at risk of schizophrenia, meaning you don’t have a family history of it, your mother didn’t have birth complication when you were born, and you don’t do drugs I think you’re pretty safe as this symptoms can mimic a lot of other things.
Blessings in holiday's for you and your family 💜🙏
.You are awesome. Thank you for these videos!
This sounds like my OCD and depression combined
I am high risk schizophrenic so thank you for this
This explains SOOOOO much about a certain segment of society!!😮
I love how all the early warning signs of schizophrenia (except 10) are the same symptoms of depression. 😅
I'm pretty sure that general odd obsessions and paranoia are also an early sign of schizophrenia.
(My parent is my reference)
If you're experiencing these signs, don't fret, just see a psychologist and a therapist as soon as you can to help you treat these symptoms, learn new skills to manage your symptoms, and make your life, and the lives around you easier.
To learn new skills, Therapy is available through your medical insurance or online (think Better help). Psychiatry appointments can help manage or lessen the symptoms themselves.
You are going to be okay.
You got this.
I believe in you.
Girl, you are not sick, you are being possessed literally. Listen to what Jerry Marzinsky say about schizophrenia. He is a professional psychiatrist with immense experience.
Wtf???
@@pinetreegreen3330 exactly.
Mental illness isnt demonic posetion tho
I was relieved when i realised i have none of these, and i was extra relieved when i read the comments saying these are depressions systems lol
why the religious obsessions
