- James King has heard voices for most of his life. For years he was able to cope. He studied journalism, and became a radio producer, but shortly into his career he had a massive breakdown.
He's slowly been regaining his confidence through painting. Now he's taking the first steps back into the workforce.

Really appreciate that his story is being told by by him and not someone just explaining psychosis. Not to mention he is so talented, intelligent and brave. Ik he’ll do amazing things in life.
I’ve got paranoid schizophrenia I’m 42 I’ve had since I was 22.
Everyday is hard.
The voices are absolutely positively reality. I have heard them. They aren’t what we all think. No one recognizes or believes it but the visible world was created by the world we cannot see. Since the beginning and Adam we are born helpless and open to anything. Get alone, read the gospel of John,, surrender your life 100 per cent, trust GOD, wait, HE will give you what you need.
I just received a like on 12/22. And it may sound mentally ill but everyone has thoughts dropped into their spirit. There are only 2 sources and the source that caters to our ego and pride is the joker,thief, mocker, the god of this world. Comments, likes, and social media and the internet were like dumping a barrel of gas on a fire. Don’t patronize me satan.
Thought this was fantastic, just seeing this now. I like James a lot. He feels 100% human.
James’s story is inspirational and very important. What a brave and beautiful person 💕
Great video James, well presented. I'm diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia and suffer from anxiety so I could relate to what you were saying. It amazes me you can do public speaking so well with anxiety! good stuff. I've been well for about 5 years and now just starting to look at getting into a peer support worker role. Keep up the good work you're doing at changing minds and all the best for the future.
Living with phycosis is like trying to get out of the cage that's inside your mind,U try to at least be connect with reality but u Can't
I have phycosis and it's hard especially for someone whose young like me
Seeing this made me reliazed that I'm not alone
These are some of the best documentaries I have seen about such a difficult topic thank you for shedding some light
Things really came together for James, I am proud to see him getting on so well.....
Those black dog paintings are iconic
Highly intelligent, sensitive and insightful. Doing a project on psychosis, this was useful, thankyou for your honesty
Thanks for this video. I have hardships now, and I'm doing my best. James reminds me that I can make it through trying circumstances. Just death of a father and paralyzation of my mother, has been hard, very hard. Never had this much struggle. Life was normal once. At least, I'm not on the streets and living under that bridge (27:00-ish). If James can "come back", then maybe, I can come back too. Thanks for videos like this ...
"i can do all things through Him who strengthens me"
Hope you are doing ok.
How are you doing now? I’m very sorry for your tragic losses
My heart goes out to this man. What an ordeal to deal with. He is very insightful in spite of his disease.
I had psychosis hit me as quick as a slap in the face and wow i was in for one hell of a ride. I know mine was probably from past drug use possibly but when it hit me it was the scariest thing I have ever seen and or experienced. It lasted about two years and spent a month or so in the mental hospital. I couldn't even imagine having to deal with that for so long. It's so taxing on the body and soul. James is a soldier and hope his girl can stay patient with him when he's having rougher times cause I know from experience.
How long after did this start for you after you stopped consuming drugs?
My brother is acting very weird he has gotten in fights at school because he says that people tell him stuff that they whisper and that he knows what they are thinking. When that people are sure they never tell him anything. Then at home he doesn’t sleep he says he hears stuff and that stuff happens at night so he doesn’t sleep at all at night he has a knife by his side all the time. He was at juvenile and I know that before going in to juvenile he was using drugs. I don’t know if this is happening because of those drugs. The weird thing is that he says “ everything is fine, nothing is wrong, I don’t know why you think something is happening with me” that scares me a lot. He thinks it’s normal😔 do you think this is a sign of psychosis?
Yes this is very sad I live with my husband that has this illness he really try his best want to be normal but can't fright it so thankgoodness they got help for it a safe place to get better like some one with a broken leg heal an move on all the best to everyone that got this illness an that the future will bring yous happiness
Im 19 and have been like this for 2 years... eventually I have just givin up and decided that this is just what life is like, it's normal. I did not realize that this is what's happening to me..
Thank you James for your story. It’s so useful for me in supporting my son. You are a brave, beautiful soul ❤️❤️
Thank you James for sharing your life with us. Thank you to Keiran and Changing Minds and thank you to Louise for providing a good safe relationship for James.
I'm so happy for you James. Your story brought tears to my eyes. Not because of how sad it made me but because of how happy it made me that you were able to find help and to be an inspiration to others. Thank you so much for your service.
Congratulations James. You are making great steps. You are an amazing painter people from all over the world are captivated by your work
God bless you your a very intelligent soul
Thanks for watching Angel Heart
This made me cry.
Stella Annie aww
I am not in a psychiatric hospital, I am "free" but I still feel like being locked up in this world.
What an inspirational man! Thank you Attitude for such interesting stories - I really like your channel.
Thank you for watching Peter Petrelli we appreciate it
Thank you very informative. I m going through the same very embrassed and ashamed of my self. It stared with psychosis end with bipolar disorder. Always eat healthy no smoking no drinking. Having my medication every months aripiprazole
That Ten Years Went Into Some Rather Brilliant Art Friend. Think about those ten years as that~your art is genius, which means you are genius.
Also, I am very sorry for the harm you suffered, you didn’t deserve that...you didn’t do anything wrong and did not deserve to be hurt BUT you DO deserve to HEAL and I wish you to Heal Well.
So many beautiful souls. Love the heart of NZ. Keep loving yourselves and each other. Good luck James
I have psychotic depression from my bipolar, too. I once got so paranoid, I thought the fbi was after me at my most recent job. I totally get not knowing reality from fiction, too.
What meds are you on?
Wonderful and strong human being! Sending lots of love.
Thank you, for this video. Thank you, James and Louise, for doing it
Thank you so much for this. I am constantly looking for ways to better understand thought disorders so that I can better serve my community as a psych nurse (who happens to also be a psych patient). I have seen unspeakable pain, and I have seen unspeakable growth and healing. James, keep fighting. I will keep fighting too. Have you ever heard of intervoice? It’s an incredibly supportive online community of people who hear voices and their loved ones. It’s helped me stop trying to figure voices out, and begin the journey of figuring the voices IN 💖
His artwork reminds me a lot of basquiat work. Basquiat also painted when he was having hallucinations, but his was drug induced
Great documentary. I’ve subbed. James is a very talented incredible man. Love his artwork very basquiat
well played james you are again winning at life, very inspirational video thanks :)

Come on let’s go out and SAVE the people let’s focus on our family members first...Like his partner Louise cares about him, loves him....anyone in your life who needs some understanding?

You’re very talented. I love your paintings.
I wish Jams all the luck to succeed , great story !
THANK YOU FOR BEING SO BRAVE... XXX
I became suicidal and had psychosis 3 years ago... And again last year... It's so confusing. I still feel friends and family are out to get me.... I hate society. I don't know how not to be negative 😣 any advice would be great!
Wat kind of negativity koz I hear it but try to ignore it
Being creative alone or in group, workplace that has kind interaction with people, yoga and meditation especially in group, talking to someone, dancing... Hope you get well soon! ♡
I hope you feel better. I went through the same thing and after you experience a phycosis and come back to reality it hits you really hard! For me it was getting the right medication. I was on ariperiprazol (don't know how to spell it) but it was awful it wouldn't let me sleep or rest or sit down and was unable to focus and made me suicidal. But I got the right medication and it balanced me out it's called quetiapine it helps to stabilise your mood too. Meditate, go for walks, run, bike, paint, do yoga, talk to someone about what your thinking
Brave man. This is why I've started my own channel
wonderful soul
Why do I love this guy's face?
James, you are an inspiration to us all, keep fighting my friend.
Thanku we all can be better informed because of the videos god bless the people that have this and have to live with this day in and day out
Brave man ! I admire him
What fantastic art work! Greetings from Sweden!
Thanks for watching Rachel Aspögård! From the team at Attitude in New Zealand 😊
I found the video after hearing about a family member who recently jumped to their death due to psychosis, I wish this person had seen this film before deciding to end it all. All the best to you all.
I agree , brilliant artist.
inspirational
James King is wonderful!!!!
wonderful art, I gave no talents, my now dead brother was a good artist and had schizophrenic. He had a real black labrador retriever,
Your so brave
He's incredible
I had pshychosis on and off for 15 years and spent a lot of time at Toi Ora and slept through my alarm for about 5 years in a row whilst working for my dad on Olanzapine.... and just got a new job a month ago.
So I should try not to be an easy catch.....? I will take this wise advise from someone who's been there as I'm always guilty of the opposite......
Thanks for watching Alex, we wish you the best for your new job!
Slept throught your alarm?
That's interesting, never heard anyone mention that as an side-effect.
I would love to know how things are going for him now…if he has a place where he sells his work.
Maybe he was a bit optimistic for the first week take it easy. He wanted to do it all and rightly so! What a nice man!
Going through it.
I love those dog paintings!
I love you!
I LUV U BRO.
Much Respect to your Lady Louise, She is Incredibly Lovely and Loves You so much, this Obvious to Me, as an Observer.
I want to adopt him. he is adorable
Rude as feck
I wish I could get a nice job like this
What do I do to help my son with this he want watch this or go back to mental health since he had a bad experience and he is in a psychotic stage most days. He's 43 we pray for him and love him but it disturbs us not knowing how to help him. He want let us. Thank you for showing your story your life so we can learn how to deal with his situation and how it makes him feel. God bless you.
Lie to a shrink that you're experiencing psychosis, get antipsychotic meds from him/her & slip them to your son.
I love people
Thank you for your story and you are given hopes to me. Lucky to have a graet partner. Lot of love 😍
Tom Hardy should play this guy in his life story.. does thie dude have a website for his art? Really liked it
He has a page on Facebook for his art. James King art.
Does James sell his artwork? If so what platform does he use to sell it?
Kiera Tomasino I'd also like to know
Yes he does James king art page through facebook
SpeaKing for myseLf, aLot of GREAT ARTISTS SUFFER HARSHLY
You're a GC Bro. Hug the Lovers Close.. You're a Good Man.
I have just started watching this. Just curious of this first guy(James) in the video smoked too many joints when he was younger. Apparently, some people can get bipolar or schizophrenia from smoking too much cannabis from a young age. Just curious if this has validity for some genetically vulnerable people?
Yes, marijuana causes this in some cases
Yes it does I was smoking a lot before along with a few prescription drugs and it caused me to have a phycosis
Ya it can happen on occasion unfortunately.
💚
I love his story and his life journey.
I also love his art, has he sold any I wonder?
Human being... 100 percent
Kieran is a great guy to see James’s talents and hire him.
DEATHSTARS (song: Cyanide) came after me along with others. Thanks, Putin.
3 years. Hell.
Slipping out of the system isn't all that bad an idea, I've thought about it a lot.
I often wonder if being transient is calming for you mentally?
It's a nightmare because you can't do what you want to do and everyone around you lives their lives, and you just sit there, watching. It's like being in a vacuum, not a vacation. Maybe you need a vacation or to take a four day and go hiking. You don't want to be like us. I've wasted 10 years with nothing to show.
try grape seed extract
Me too.... Its hard
Get some Rhythm into yo' Physical!
I thought hearing voices was indicative of schizophrenia?
Hearing voices (and other forms of hallucinations) is generally known as psychosis, which can be its own set of symptoms/experiences apart from schizophrenia. For example, people like James experience psychotic symptoms co-morbidly with his depression. Other common instances of psychosis are cited from drug use, or during mania (e.g. someone with bipolar disorder on a "high" point). It's closely related to our dopamine receptors/levels.
@@JseRivs Man U smart
I have the diagnosis paranoid
But its fake
Its better to be a gay
If you not inaff to a girl
