Having Hallucinations In a Job Interview |

- In this #schizophrenicstorytime I talk about the time that I had a visual and auditory hallucination and I truly believed in the moment that there was an additional person interviewing me. Hallucinations tend to cause a bit of delusion which makes it difficult to differentiate between what is real and what it not, and it can greatly affect my critical thinking skills.
Please let me know if you have any of my past schizophrenic story times from TikTok or that you remember for the last few years that you would like me to take more time to break down and talk about.
Thank you AGAIN for helping me reach 100,000 Subscribers!

There’s a cool local bookstore in my city that does readings/signings and they try to emphasize marginalized authors. It’s a well known store in the area and people will come from out of town for some events. I would be happy to send you the name and location privately if you’re interested. I’m in Washington state, so idk if you would want to come all the way over here but it would be so cool to meet you. I also am mentally ill and I am currently in the process of trying to start working after 10 years of being unable to (7 years on disability). I am looking forward to your book, mental illness and work is such a huge issue!
I think your hallucinations wants you fired
The hallucination clearly wanted to hire him
I dont have schizophrenia but i have fibromyalgia and can relate to wanting to work and not go on disability. The Healthcare world wouldnt give me the meds i needed to function and got lucky finding Kratom that essentially lets me function as normally as possible given the circumstances. I hate that our culture doesnt do more to work with us when we WANT to contribute and not be a drain if we can help it.
Wow this is me too! I'm so glad I found kratom but if they ever do make it illegal, I am unaliving my self. Living in constant pain and the medical community gaslights me saying I'm just suffering from mental help... I did do all they wanted me to do of seeing a psychiatrist, doing east/west meds like buying tens machine, cupping, acupuncture, trying to exercise, practicing mindfulness and I'm told that I'm just not doing it well enough and thus I need to focus on mindfulness. After years of that baloney I found kratom and now I can get up in the morning take my dose so I can start waking up and moving and get ready for the day even when the pain, fatigue, and insomnia has me feeling a pain level of a 8...I can usually manage to get that pain down to a 5 and I function. I as well do not want disability - I want to work and be self-sufficient. I don't want anyone needing to physically care for me for basic functions. My SO sometimes gets annoyed because he wants to lets say open up a jar for me and I'm like no, I can do it.
They always tell me they’ll give me a call and never do. Or if they do they say I’m not what they’re looking for but I can’t help but to think that it might just be my other things going on
Bloody hell, that's awkward and terrifying... Your very hardworking man kudos to you... Just asking, what happens if you try to interact physically with your hallucination, do they respond, move away if you try to touch them? When you ask them question if they are real and do something like grab a bottle or something, do they attempt to do it or how do they respond? This is fascinating to me.
@@natas12rm To see if they have a will of their own or not.
Im pretty young and i know it usually gets worse with age, but im 20 yrs old, my dad is paranoid schizophrenic and my mom is a bipolar drug addict, over the years i thought it was just normal to hear other voices than your own in your head, i now pray that im just paranoid because i have a son and i watched my dad slowly go from well, my dad, to this person thats sometimes my dad, i was just wondering if this is definitely schizophrenia bekng passed to me or if i might just be projecting because i saw my dad talk to people that werent there my whole life.
It’s worth it to have yourself checked out with a mental health specialist. I think you’d really benefit from that immensely ❤
Good for you for bringing this to the fore with your own channel. Schizophrenia is such a misunderstood condition. Thank you.
does noticing the confusion in yourself or others give you a hint that something might not be real? or is it more like when you're dreaming and the thought doesn't cross your mind? trying to put myself in your shoes, in that situation i would probably sense that something is off and ask them politely to stop interrupting each other.. and then feel very embarrassed and self-aware if they said no one else was there.. does being told something you are seeing/hearing isn't real upset you or make you socially anxious? i can imagine it's not pleasant..
Thanks for sharing this, you're right that it's a really important story time. I look forward to your book :)
My son had the same situation as you … schizophrenia and addiction … his life was so chaotic and nearly destroyed our family .. he has been so blessed and been sober and on medication for 3 yrs this month.dont give up on yourself and families , don’t give up on them .. my belief is the lord was woven into our story .. I pray for anyone out there suffering in silence .
You’re the MAN,Kody! I would’ve been so, so salty, but you just didn’t give up and that makes you super inspirational bro! Praying for your success for your book and the new podcast with Allison!
I appreciate you telling part of your story. I just found your page today. Yup it’s so important. ❤
Congratulations on the book! I'm soooo proud of you Kody! I just found your channel recently, and I'm magnificently obsessed with your creativity for living with mental illness! Thank you for sharing, you're amazing❣💪🏽💯
I admire your strength to overcome obstacles with this disorder and maintain productivities in life.
Wow what a great storytime! You really are an incredible person. So strong! I wish you would come to Joshua Tree in California for a book signing! ❤
Love this story time! Any bookstore in Lancaster, Pa. Would be amazing to finally meet you. Really looking forward to the book. Sporting new T-shirt tomorrow. 😁
Crazy story time. My brothers ex wives mom was Schizophrenic. But she was not like you. She caused me so much grief. Let me explain. Were sitting at home when out of nowhere our house was surrounded by police & two ambulances. Before i could even react they were at our door about to kick it in. I screamed "DON'T KICK IT I'll OPEN IT." (We saw them on surveillance cameras) i open it,they rush in searching our entire house but not before dragging me, my husband and my 1 and 3 yr old, my brother & his pregnant gf outside. Apparently, she had called 911 and told them me & my husband had drowned her pregnant daughter in our bathtub. Ok, i can let that go i guess. The woman is not ok,i get it. But then, about a week later. Same damn thing. Police surrounded our house ,2 ambulances, 1 for jennifer, one for the baby. This time she told them my husband R -worded jenn and stole baby from the womb. So i asked police ,"when are you gonna stop coming here? You know she's sick." They say they do know but they have to take every call seriously just in case. I'm like ok. This is a lot. About a mnth goes by and what do you know. We are asleep in bed when we hear pounding on the windows amd doors. I swear i already KNEW. She had done it AGAIN. We ended up having to move because of the police activity. I tried to explain to the owner but they didn't care. This was like 15 years ago when pll didn't have surveillance cameras and such and had less Knowledge of things like schizophrenia. We made sure jenn didn't give out our address this time. But she got my mom. Police end up doing this to my moms house idek, like 8 to 10 times in a year.
We became less and less understanding with each call. It can be so hard to deal with. Especially when you get evicted over it.
I’m just curious how often do you end up recording real people because you weren’t sure
Are our comments altered by hallucinations? Has it ever happened?
Disability declines me cause my age. But i struggle hard holding down work. right now I'm in Vocational Rehab. which is work training program where they just put u to work and list it as "self Employed" . they treat me well though. lets me stop and work through things when things don't seem like they are adding up after a bit. Hoping new real job I'm trying to get that says it works with people like me, takes me on.
What do your hallucinations say in different situations? I’m so curious :0
Hey, maybe you should mention the new drugs that are being developed, such as Iclepertin for people with schizophrenia and their cognition. I think it would be a great thing to show that new drugs are being developed, that can radically change a persons life.
would be interested in a book signing if you come to Northern California
This was super interesting! Thank you for sharing! I got a question, have they gotten worse or more "real" over time as you aged? My therapist is starting to really think I have schizophrenia or another disorder similar do to my hallucinations. I am already diagnosed with Autism and its really hard to tell what is real or in my mind. I physical can feel sensations when I would touch them (well where they would be if they were real) and I'm not sure where to go with this information. I've been noticing them more as time goes on, I'm still a young teen though.
Yes! Please do a book signing in Salt Lake City.
Kody, great storytime! In that case is there anything those 2 interviewing you could have done/said knowing you were responding to someone that was not there , knowing possibly it was a mental health issue ???
What meds are you on ? I know everyone is different
❤❤❤
Appreciate you making these videos man, it's super interesting to get a glimpse into your world.
Come down to New Orleans
Have you played Hellblade Senuas Sacrifice? Is it accurate?
i have no idea what a cheese maker does
Blessed are the cheese makers.
this guy's faking the funk
How the hell would YOU know? Do you know him personally? Are a psychologist? Ever went down into research on how scrizophrenia affects an individual?
