Emotional trauma can truly impact your mind, brain, and body.
It is a complete "system attack" in which your daily battle may feel like too much to bear sometimes.
What makes trauma worse is what we call co-occurring or co-morbid illnesses.
A co-occurring disorder would be something like schizophrenia or psychosis (hallucinations and delusional thinking) with alcohol or substance abuse.
A co-morbid diagnosis would be something like schizophrenia or psychosis and post-traumatic stress disorder.
When any mental illness comes with alcohol or substance abuse or another kind of mental illness like bipolar disorder things get more complicated. If these things are present within a complex family system it can be difficult to heal.
In this video, I discuss the relationship between PTSD and schizophrenia or psychosis.

PTSD and psychosis/schizophrenia is something I have only seen in families that I have provided care to in the past. The combination of the two can be so difficult to identify and manage.
Before watching this video, you may want to see this first: czcams.com/video/1ADu9fSwvFc/video.html.
Add to that autism? Which is what my grandchild is facing. Ptsd, OCD, psychosis, delusion and anxiety. Been given an ultimatum of, take the drugs or we I'll section you and force the meds on to you. I am beside myself with worry. Grandchild is afraid of the side effects of the meds.
maybe Heaven is the place where we all get and give forgiveness and get the relationship we did hope for while on earth that wasn't possible
I really hope so 🙏
This makes alot of sense. This girl i work with in Adult Services has been diagnosed with Schizophrenia, however she only hears one voice regarding self harm when she hears a glass break. Completely fine any other time, and she does not remember her childhood. PTSD sounds like a much better diagnosis.
I have PTSD and anxiety. But had the scariest dead sober two week psychosis of visual auditory and tactile hallucinations that were so scary and feeling my body move like if I was being controlled like a robot. After just too much fucking trauma.
Afghan veteran. Ive got "episodes" that last days. And days more recovering from the hightened anxiety. I cant go outside when its a full moon because for some reason my theres people in a treeline that can see me (i can rationalize that it doesnt make sense in the moment but still wont go outside in moonlight). I get auditory hallucinations (always the sound of various sizes of explosions but once again can rationalize that its not real while still hearing it) lastly and most impactfull is dissasociation. When im in an "episode" i can be looking at my own son and not recognize him, look around and KNOW im in america but have the feeling im back in afghanistan and cant escape...like its the first day of a ten month deployment. The dissasociation also comes with forgetfulness and a small loss of time or snapshots of memory from the course of hours. The dissasociation and hallucinations almost always go together.
I've been self aware of these situations and learning more and more about them over the course of 11 years. I've looked for help, but unfortunately I do not know where to turn. I don't even know where to start with the VA
All said well and perfect......only to and for those who have experienced this. There are not enough words to convey this to those who have never experienced this. No one can return from this experience, but only live through this experience.
Scary hallucinations
So sad & horrifying.
Yes, it is. Agree.
Oh wow thank you so much! I've tried and tried to find something that explains my insanely confusing symptoms of living with both psychosis and ptsd. Trust me it is not easy to find. I appreciate your work and the way you explain this. Very helpful!
You're welcome! I'm happy to help. And I understand this fact which is why this video exists. We need more information on this. Without my clinical experience, it would have been difficult to locate this information. Glad this was helpful to you.
Thank you so much for educating me on the different disorders.
You're welcome. And thank you for watching.
My mom was diagnosed with schizophrenia at 40, but a psychiatrist told me it can't be, because it doesn't start at 40. She had a traumatic marriage and I'm wondering if my mom has BPD that with schizoid psychosis, which does make sense for her trauma.
I'm sorry to hear this. Being diagnosed at age 40 is rare. Most people are diagnosed between age 18 and 30. So I agree with the psychiatrist. It may also be helpful for you to know that sometimes schizophrenia or psychosis lays dormant (under the surface) until a stressful life event or trauma causes it to "bloom." That's a possibility as well.
This was a really good one Tamara! Thank you!
Thank you! And you're welcome.
Very informative thank you ❤️💕
You are so welcome! And thank you.
Thank you for choosing this topic very close to my heart. My brother suffers from this, I always thought his illness was caused by an extremely abusive childhood. Should I think this?
You're welcome Judy! I'll be covering more of this on Wednesday -- most likely LIVE. This disorder can be caused by a lot of things which I will cover Wednesday.
@@TherapistTamaraHill Thank you, looking forward to Wednesday 🙏
What are options for treatment? My brother is really struggling and stuck in a hospital that’s not helping him.
@hannahmanela2899 I'm curious about treatment options too. How is your brother doing?
My older brother suffers from schizophrenia. Everything you spoke of feels very familiar.
I'm so sorry Hanna. It's tough to live with and support sometimes.
I am not sure how to advise someone. Their mother took in a foster child whose mother was addicted to drugs and who she decided to adopt. 40 years later, the adopted mother had passed and now the grown man cannot take care of himself after being cared for by the mother. What agencies are available to care for adults with life skills challenges? He refuses to go to Social Services and instead begs, borrows and steals on the streets to survive while threatening to commit suicide. Is there any help available?
We really need an answer to this one.
Im pretty sure my daughter is suffering from delusions and psychosis...she was diagnosed with schizophrenia in 2012 she is getting worse i dont know how to help her.
I'm so so sorry. Schizophrenia is a complicated diagnosis and most doctors target reduction of the most salient or problem-some symptoms such as hallucinations with medication. Delusions are difficult to treat, however. I will cover this on Wednesday.
@@TherapistTamaraHill thank you i will look forward to your video ...im just trying to find ways to help her she will not take medication for fear of worsening her condition. She did okay for some years but now its worse
No i know for a fact i was drugged not a delusion 😅 this isnt me but i do suffer from PTSD
