As a struggling alcoholic I can say with confidence that I have experienced alcohol-induced psychosis. It is the strangest sensation and experience. I hallucinated seeing people in my yard and I ran around my house with a gun. I knew after the fact I didn't see anyone, but with my own eyes they were there. Needless to say I got rid of my firearms and Im trying to rid myself of this poison. Shit sucks though. Just wanted to share! Hope you all are having a great day!
I experienced psychosis as a result of being overwhelmed with life, depressed and abusing Marijuana and edibles. I was delusional, paranoid and very confused along with hallucinations. I was in the psych ward of the hospital for almost 2 weeks to get better. Even when I came home I was waking up during the night confused. After months of playing around with my meds, I'm feeling back to my normal self! Godbless anyone who had gone through this or any mental health issues. 🙏
Can you please provide what medications you were prescribed, a loved one of mine is experiencing very similar events and we need all the information possible that could help. Please respond, you could very well be saving a life.
@@Ophiuchus47 not the original poster but I suffered a psycosis as well. i took invega (paliperidona), 3mg first 2 months then 6 mg after 2 months then 9 for a year just to be sure my mind was completely stabilized. see a psychiatrist and get an opinion before you go on the medication route. dont play with your mental health!
*SCHIZOPHRENIA TREATMENT BREAKTHROUGH* *I read through with interest. There should be no shame. I once believed Schizophrenia or mental illness has no cure. Well, it is true with English medicine, but not with Consummo Herbs. To be clear, there is no pharmaceutical medicine, no magic pill that has any significant effect on the progressive downhill course of this disease. My daughter's experience opened my eyes to the reality of a cure through the wonders of herbs. My daughter was diagnosed with schizophrenia many years ago. I spent more time in hospital than out of hospital. She had a major breakthrough only with CONSUMMO treatment. She has been well and living her best life. While there may be other different options to into, never make your own success path a secret. I consider myself an advocate for people who don’t have a voice.* *You can visit this blog for more info: **curetoschizophrenia.blogspot.com*
I remember waking up to a psychotic episode that came out of nowhere at about 2am one night. It lasted for at least 2 hours and I had a voice in my head telling me to kill myself even though I wasn't depressed and had never had suicidal thoughts before. I had to get a cold shower for like 30 mins to calm me down just enough where I could fall back to sleep. It was absolutely terrifying, god help the people who have to experience something like that regularly.

I usually get a lot of lesser psychosis symptoms/hallucinations due to caffeine abuse and high stress lmao Given that I'm also depressed thoughh, I'm quite surprised I haven't heard the voices tell me to kill myself though.
I had my first psychosis about a month ago and it really opened my eyes to how 'psycho' people think and made me see the world from both sides after I was in my psychosis. I remember a lot. I definitely still see mass murders and such as monsters but I can understand their perception of reality and why they do these horrible things. When I was in my psychosis I was able to run outside naked despite having a severe social anxiety where I can't even say hi to my internet friends with text. I was able to talk with anyone naked and I thought the world was against me. There was so much in this 'world' that made me do things I would absolutely never do. I almost threw my caretaker out my window, I screamed and banged at the hospital door with all my strength, I thought people could read my mind and at one point I really thought I was going to heaven. I was just not sane but in my world my mind fooled me into believing I was right and what I did was the only way. Someone saying no or blocking me? That person is the enemy, because I thought then that me and others were in danger. I got it from sleep deprivation (not sleeping in 2-3 days), going on Concerta (ADHD medication) and being in a lot of stress due to all kinds of stuff at that time, all this together made my brain snap. When my brain snapped it really felt like someone called me, like I suddenly experienced life from a higher level and that god himself or something in control told me that me and future peoples lives were in danger. Thinking this, or rather feeling this in a way I've never felt before, made me think this was something extremely important that I had no choice on and just do right now. THIS, this right here is what made me do those extreme things. Things like I mentioned above, I ran outside naked and almost threw someone out my window. It was like my mind gave me missions to do every now n then and that I only had a few seconds to complete them, making me panic and probably look like a real crazy guy while I was screaming and doing really stupid stuff. So hard to explain but. Believe me.. it's something way different. Your mind completely fools you. Hell, it felt so real it even took me a day or two to finally go 'okay, that was completely horseshit. None of that was real. That 'god' call was not real'.
The same happens to my elder brother and he sometimes think he's god himself. he would try to kill or talk to his voice on his own head. it must be horrible and scary to constantly live and struggle like that, l don't have psychosis never suffered from it. But l've got depression and anxiety.
Perfectly described for my situation last year, too. It's like a "god call" and you feel like you have no choice, but to act spontaneously and very fast or you or someone other gets in real danger. I jumped out of my car, blocking the traffic and had nothing but multiply reports. I needed some weeks, to recognize the mess i created there.
I know what you mean as in the mind twists up reality and you feel like your almost getting obsessed in something that isn't real. For years, I believed in the illuminati, I believed a cult ruled the world, I believed that the freemasons were running the UK, America and every nation on earth because I myself was filled with doubt. I needed that there because I was very shy at school, I was very quiet so I guess physcosis happens when the world your in is too stressful for you to handle so your mind tries to use delusions as a form of escapism. But, these delusions lead you into a darker and more depressive hole. Because of you are deluded, your social skills break, if your deluded, your self esteem breaks. This is why mental illness is so complex. Because its not a broken arm, it's so much more varied and there's such a broad range of issues and treatments. That's why it's difficult to identify an issue and recover.
idk why im looking into this so much when I already take meds for all this ._____. this is kinda reminds me that I'm not alone with having a.."problem" I guess. to the other people like me, who suffer. you got this, and you will make it. i love you.
Thank you, I feel so lost.. disconnected. I’m getting my life together and reaching my goals but I still am dealing with mental health. You are not alone, keep fighting.
@@Seeker4you2 hey me too, I had my 2nd episode this June. Its not going away regardless of my medication. I feel like a shadow of my former self, I can hardly think :( I hope to make out of this. Hope you do too. Take care
@@Jose-oq6kj have you tried doing a jigsaw puzzle. Totally random, I know but it might retrain your concentration levels and when you complete even a small part you might feel a "small win" to give you the inventive to keep going and concentrate longer. Just an idea 💚🧡
Wow, it's incredible to me that the disfunction in primarily just two neural pathways in the brain can result in a severely life altering disorder for someone.

@@veronicagorosito187 thats what faith is. 5 years old you thinks that you knows the world, but the current you knows that 5 years old you is wrong, and current you that understand reality. 90 years old you will think that current you is immature. So the question is, how far will it go? And at which point will you really know, that you know it all, and it's the ultimate non-changing truth from that point onwards? To blindly say that god is real is wrong, same goes to say that god doesnt exist. I think it's better to have a open mind and accepting change as we experience more and more of this world. But be sure to enjoy yourself in the process of learning rather than forcing yourself to stay in a perception of something you choose to believe at one point in time.
I had a psychotic break yesterday truly believed my friends were plotting to murder me and hurt me I genuinely thought it and began sweating and getting so distorted I wanted to die it was terrifying I don’t want to live this way anymore
Same! I once was taken in an ambulance bc I believed there was going to be a terrorist attack in the metro. Once in the ambulance, the 3 doctors were men and I screamed at them beggin for them to not rape me. I believed they were trying to kill me. You're not alone and we'll get over this!!
@@shazzalennon6327 Soooo, is that paranoia? During the hight of ISIS attacks, I used to try and "predict" if an attack was going to occur... I recall once in 2015 I was feeling bad; almost nothing was going good for me, school stress and no joy. There was a famous Shia holy day "Aashoora", and ISIS hated Shia's, I recall telling my friend "I have a gut feeling that that day is going to be a dark day in Qatif". I recall I was in the car; sad for no reason, then I hear in the radio in that afternoon that ISIS bomb a mosque in Qatif and dozens of people were injured and killed... It was sad for me to hear that, yet breifly happy that my prediction was right... but that was a emotion-driven "prediction"/assumption (I'm feeling fear; therefore a bad thing is going to occur, like I felt like something bad will happen because I was feeling fear or something like that). And I attributed that to my grandmother feeling bad or falling ill when a relative of her's passes away. She generally gets ill even though she did'nt know about the bad news (seems like an interesting observation by people around her).

Anxiety paranoia anger all at once. Forgetfulness, or thinking you lost something when it’s right in front of their face. Carries for days and during those days digging up every piece of dirt that will piss you off. Purposely searching for problems when they are really not that bad.
I've been through hell in my psychotic break. I remember being accused of faking it the whole time because of how it expressed. I was so talkative, I couldn't shut up. It felt like my life depended on expressing something. Through the whole matter though, the worst part was the treatment I received from certain family members and the community I live in. I've had to educate myself on what happened because through the whole process, I was treated by mental health '"professionals" like I was just being problematic and trying to get attention. Maybe, I really was trying to get attention because I was reaching out for someone to see me underneath the erratic behavior as someone who did need help. Thank you for this informative video. I wish someone would have taken the time to explain this to me sooner, but I found it now and it's helping me now.
I know how it is... Exactly. I am only 19 and learned about myself and such in so many ways. I am not schizophrenic but I learned how to overcome negative thoughts. Sometimes it feels like you're dying and it's all over, hang in there.
My husband experienced this. He decided to self medicate with more alcohol than usual, and then he added edibles. Then he needed to go to the ER because after donating platelets one Saturday, he followed it up with a night of heavy drinking and wound up dehydrated. It has nearly been a year. He is doing a little better.
I wish he had mentioned bipolar too, but I guess he did not do it because it happens only with bipolar type I, so he would have to explain a lot about this disorder.
AVOID STRESS! u cant fight with delusion or halucination even ur try to thinking logic.. it will bigger and worst... delusion will disappear naturally if u do constantly activities , dont always alone , hangout with your friends
I did a psychosis from substance abuse, I took 3 tabs of lsd mixed with shrooms and 2 different products of Cannabis. The whole experience is too long to write but I'll have to say that please be careful with the consomation of substances(drugs). I was in a state of mind where I wanted to get fucked up cuz at that time I had mental health problems (depression which is why of the substance abuse)
Hi are you better? And if soo what helped you get better .. i too had Sever problems after LSD abuse 😔, now i dont want to live ..im damaging my body by smoking compulsively..i dont shower or take care of my self ..i dont live the house ..i cant work ..i dont wana live like this ..i cant enjoy life at all ..

Great video! Thanks for making it! I was diagnosed with clinical depression complicated by schizoaffective disorder in 1992. Fortunately, the Schizoaffective disorder is almost entirely in remission, but I still dissociate, particularly when I am trying to focus on a technical project. The depression is somewhat in remission but always in the background like a heavy weight. In 1992, I had a psychotic break. I was 26, and a Pentecostal Christian. I totally immersed myself in my religion, and began to hear God's voice as a persistent interlocutor. I had doubts about the voice and began questioning my sanity and soon began to viscerally "feel" demons in my bedroom at night. I fell into a depression that was close to catatonic, and was treated with antipsychotics. Since I have been studying philosophy, human behavioral evolution, psychology and whatever neuroscience I can grasp. For me, delving into the how and why helped me get out in front of the delusions. Today I am an atheist, anti-theist philosopher and optical engineer in the Planetarium field. Understanding goes a long ways towards healing.
@@mr.drummond4656 Sorry for the delay, I guess I need to check my notifications settings. No, I didn't go down the ECT road. I Only had a few catatonic episodes. I am on the minimal dose of seroquel, trazadone, buspar and ritalin these days.
(Does anyone else have these following issues?) I’m continuously watching this video after a decade of being diagnosed as bipolar, and a life of being diagnosed with autism. Today, at 28 I received a fresh diagnosis of 🌟 Schizophrenia 🌟 and this video makes total sense to me. More than anything I have watched on CZcams in a long time. It irks me that I have done 10 years of higher ed, and didn't learn more than basic psychology. Anyway, I pretty much live in non-bizarre delusions and I know it. So much so that they are clear movies in my head and I create thorough hypothetical situations with the same premise over and over but a new script. I complete the tasks I remember, but I never stop thinking of these hypothetical events that I really want to happen. Like chances to prove myself in instances where I feel like I was unheard or wronged. I’m obsessed over it. I’ve never been this way. Though being highly irritable has been the bane of my existence, anger management helped with that a lot. Shrugging off ignorant people daily is tough, but it’s better for me to not dwell on it. My biggest issue is that I think I lack the ability to genuinely nurture and care for other people. Unfortunately, I think my nature and nurture were both crap. I’m pacing constantly, I can’t eat or sleep, I can’t maintain relationships despite not having bad intentions. Man, I just don’t see myself living a full healthy life. I just don’t see how it’s possible when I don’t have control over my own thoughts. I can’t even speak the way I type. My entire life, people have called me highly intelligent. Recently I’ve been reduced to a sack of dumbness. Just mumbly and confused. Air-headed even when I know I can speak circles around the most eloquent people I have ever met, but I get over it pretty quickly. Negative comments about my intelligence are new, so it doesn’t hurt me if that makes sense. Now that I have videos like this, I can say yes. I know my abilities but I also know how I’m presenting to people and both can be true. I think it’s important to put extra time and work into protecting what thoughts I have left and patterns that make me content. Setting alarms for things like turning off appliances and making my bed, truly helps me feel less irritated at the "top" of my days. As of lately, I am painting, engineering things, and making music at a level I haven’t been able to before; but I barely remember doing it or how long it takes. I don’t really care what happens going forward, but I’m hyper-interested in knowing. I think being in my home on lock down was the worst thing that could have happened to me at this stage of my life. I’m super comfortable with complacency now. Ahh, one more thing, super scared to tell my doctor that my eyes are doing this thing where they take a while to focus on one thing, I didn’t tell him that I feel super anxious at all times or that I keep stretching, getting naked, punching walls, and whistling; but I’m sure it’s all connected.
TaylorLaurie the information I'm about to give you will change your life, listen, can I convince you to eat and drink 100% USDA organic and if you can grow your own food, all the better.? The information I'm about to give you will change your life. Objective in this is that you are avoiding the chemicals that they are adding into the food. Don't quit taking any medications that you are prescribed,. Especially your schizophrenia medication. I promise you will see Improvement and it's going to happen like this. It takes 21 days to get the drugs in the food out of your system. And by the way if you happened to go back to food that is non-usda organic it will take the same amount of days, 21 days for it to fully get back in your system and it takes another 21 days of you going back to organic food 100%, to get these drugs in the food, back out of your system again. You are going to notice the difference. You're also going to notice that the shape of your head is going to get a little smaller, that's because these drugs in the food make us hold water. It's opening up your lymphatic system and now your body can actually detox. You will notice in a matter of months when you are hypothalamus has healed because these drugs in the food cause a sore on hypothalamus. The job of the hypothalamus is to create our eight major hormones and now since you would have given your hypothalamus a chance to heal your eight major hormones will function like God intended. You going to feel better every day. Each year passes you're going to hit a mark of feeling better. If you look at it in the way of this being for the rest of your life damage control on what has been in the food causing the harms, so this will be a good way of looking at why you will be eating organic among many other good reasons. So I've got to explain now listen, you can't eat out at restaurants anymore. You have to get good at carrying your own snacks around. Couple items you can eat if you have to eat out, would be eggs and potatoes but nothing more not even condiments or spices or seasonings especially. You specifically want to avoid excitotoxins AKA MSG. Excitotoxins causes the brain to work way too fast where the brain is supposed to go nice and slow. Look up the book, excitotoxins the taste that kills by Dr Russell L blalock, A Neurosurgeon a brain doctor. This information is going to change your life please listen to me. Anyone else in this section reading this, same message to all of you.
Ive been hospitalized for paranoid delusions , have them often enough that they don’t really bother me anymore, I’m used to them and know how to handle them as best I can, but one time I made the mistake of telling someone new right after it happened which landed in the psych ward The first of the two psychiatrists I saw while there told me they didn’t think I had a psychosis based illness or whatnot but rather that it’s just an intense stress response, I’ve never heard of simple stress leading to that severe of symptoms so i now also take an antipsychotic as i keep searching for more answers and stuff but it’s so interesting what the brain can do and how little has to be wrong to cause such drastic symptoms
Yes, extreme stress or anxiety, or a traumatic event (like sudden death of a loved one) can cause someone to go into psychosis, especially if you have allowed stress to build up over time. It happened to one of my kids, who has always been anxious, and also has ADD. No bipolar, no schizophrenia.
I had a psychotic breakdown and have experienced psychotic episodes since. It is the scariest single thing to be happening and it is so hard to make sense of after. Bc whats going on in your head makes so much sense at the time. It is scary. I hope everyone gets better.
I had a long psycosis and was locked up for my own safety, i remeber at the psyc-ward i *tried to remove all the mirrors checking for camreas, went outside my room and sat on the floor putting plastic pieces between my door so i could see if someone opened it. Went a while then a lot of staff came and stood around me while one gave me medication, i could not understand why and what i did wrong.. Today i do but still, horrific memory
Known I’ve had mental problems and psychotic symptoms for many years now it started slowly and then all at once. I’m a completely functional person and quite independent but I’m very disconnected with what human life is and what I’m expected to do in the society, especially faced with everything I’ve learned.. yes, I’ve had drug use as a teen and throughout my 20s plenty of drinking to and quite a few events that I have stolen a lot of time and effort I put it in my life. But what really triggered my mental state for the last few years were some of the things I learned from my accessibility and briefing of technologies that came from extraterrestrial origins. Not the fact that aliens exist, and what they’re capable of, but rather histories and events that have happened things that are taking place and overall inability to function, knowing what I’ve learned and try to go on with my daily life, like everybody else who are in a strange way, blessed to be ignorant. There’s so much I do know there’s a lot of things I don’t know for sure many contradictory things. There are lies that cover truth, and their truth cover lies. There’s so much I just can’t say as much as I want to, it’s hard to wanna live life, knowing the big picture of humanity is terribly insignificant, and that our society is weak and a joke and a giant tapestry of wasted potential. I’ve learned that so much of what gave me a Drive to live life, have hope for the future. There really are forces behind the scenes that our entire civilization will never be able to grasp or escape from.. the lies upon lies, and just trying to readjust my self, and find a way of thinking about my conscious self, and what I should do with my time, knowing what I know. So far the best option is to pretend and go along with the narrative and play my role. I just really hope humanity will endure, and that true goodness will come. And that we stop being controlled and manipulated and rise above it, and gain independence as a species and a civilization. And that everybody learns the truth of our history.
I relate to what you wrote. Very interesting comment thank you for sharing. You put in words a couple of my thoughts that I have trouble explaining. Hope you are doing well!
That was awesome. I have been trying to find a training course which explains this. (work in mental health and just like to know how things work) and this is really interesting and explains a lot.
I had a psychosis breakdown 1.5y ago i saw demon and belived i talked to god. I was in the hospital for a month i was sceraming, believeing funny things, assuming that people are doing stuff to me. Somehow i knew what was gonna happend every momment, like i controled time, i saw my body from above... Today im off medicine and i dont hallucinate or hear anything and i just think sometimes about it, it makes my hands sweat when i remember my suffering. I wonder will it ever come back. Hardest year ever
Wonderful medical content but that artwork! I was absolutely transfixed. I can't even imagine being able to draw a flawless presentation like that on the fly!
Just found out my 61 year old brother was diagnosed with psychosis, he never filled his prescriptions or followed up with Dr. Had no insurance. Nobody helped him, he self diagnosed himself! Had a massive stroke in 2019.
I understand this is about the dopamine theory of schizophrenia and admittedly I have not looked through your other videos yet, but I think the glutamate theory and how it affects dopamine is very interesting to include as well.
I’ve thought for ages that I have ADD inattentive, but now judging from what I’ve seen and read I think I might have a form of psychosis from my recreational use of hard scripts and stimulants. I sometimes see shadows in the corner of my eye, when I’m home alone and having a ciggie I may (or may not) hear something and always get freaked out and frantically check my surroundings thinking I’ll get attacked, when I sleep I feel like something is touching my legs like bugs or something even tho a bug wouldnt be able to get there, racing and continuous thoughts, intrusive thoughts like jumping off balconies when I’m sitting on one in a chair, holding knives and thinking about stabbing someone even if I would never want to, it scares me that one day I might actually break from all my mental pressure and really do something like that one day, which makes all the intrusive thoughts that much more scary
This was the best video I’ve seen on the topic until you stopped before explaining how antipsychotics affect the synapses that DONT release enough dopamine!
I went to a psychiatrist to see if I had schizophrenia and they said I had bipolar disorder. I had two months where I would hear things that weren't there, and seeing things that weren't there.. I always think the worst will happen, some of my thoughts don't feel like my own, I have a speech disorder as well. Should I still go get a second opinion?
Alogia is the inability to speak because of mental defect, mental confusion, or aphasia. It is a speech disturbance that can be seen in people with dementia. However, it is often associated with the negative symptoms of schizophrenia. Alogia has been called a poverty of speech, or a reduction in the amount of speech.
I had a bizzare delution a while ago in the hospital after taking an overdose on 4mmc, weed, and xtc. It was exactly how you explained it, I tought my dad was replaced... Thanks i understand i had a psychosis and i got out of it really well😄
It mostly got better over time. i stopped with all drugs for a while, that helped a lot. Are you watching this video bc you are "scared" you have some things like delusions or psychosis?
my experiences with psychedelics and trauma received from my first love have left me so fucked up. I've spent like a month in therapy, but now i'm just doing more research on psychology on my free time outside of being educated in college. I had picked up a few books on psychology today but as im learning more and more, it's like im figuring out more things that are wrong with me, but now i can articulate a little more in depth, i just hope i get better instead of going more insane.
I am a girl with psychosis, but when I tell people they always tell me that "I don't look like it". Like are you serious? I have also been told, "but you wear makeup and don't seem crazy". Like jeee thanks........
actually, people have described the hallucinations from psychosis as being very similar to that of a deliriant or anticholinergic such as belladonna or datura
My mom have the positive symptoms and she suffered with this for about 20 years now, she took first meds from psy but refused to change them,its impossible to convince her to take other meds than the very first ones she got, she trusts nobody. We just started a new tactic with her today that i hope it will help her. After watching your video i made sure that i herited this mental illness too, and it seems that i have negative symtoms and i think its in the begining now, i will go check a psy asap. thank you, you probably saved me from more than 20 years of suffering :)
So, I've recently discovered that alcohol and marijuana triggers psychosis in me, which in turn triggers my depression, which THEN drives my self esteem down to the ground. My psychosis episodes last around 5 or 6 months. I will hate myself for that long. :\ I dont drink or smoke anymore been clean and straight for a year solid.
I'm surprised you didn't include bipolar mania as a possible cause of psychosis. I'm sure you know that almost every antipsychotic is also a bipolar medication, and often because they treat or prevent manic psychosis..
Man, driving and listening to CZcams videos that just pop up and then coming back to watch sure clarifies things. Pronunciation is quite important when describing the pathologies, when I could see what you were trying to read, things made sense
You all don't understand a thing about gravity. The disorganization is about not being able to have it work, because a toaster cannot work if it's not plugged to the connections. That's what makes the difference between a person and a spirit, you know? No one, and I mean NO ONE has a right to use a toaster bigger than the spirit, right? Right.
My mother got Psychosis from an iv steroid (methylprednisolone) she was never treated for that when she got it, why wouldn't they treat the first signs of psychosis before the brain goes full psychosis?...she passed away from the steroid, was never treated with medicine to help fix the state of the brain it was in
Hi, thank you for this video. I have a question on the primary and secondary illness. How will you categories severe depression with element of psychoses? TNX!
Help me someone.... I smoked regular weed and did lots of opium for 4 years but the first couple of time I smoked spice (Synthetic Cannibis), I was extremely paranoid even though my friends who also did it first time said it felt amazing.... I used to feel pride in telling others im a hardcore drug addict so I did it again after somedays as I only took small puffs even though I didn't wanted to... and it would still give me panic attacks and I would walk around the room pretending Im having fun.... eventually I quit and started drinking too much... I was all right and clean of drugs for a year and than suddenly one day I had that dissoving in my psychical environmemt kind of feeling and it was horrible although I was completely sober at that time... I felt alright aftet few minutes and than after couple of day it happened again and was permanent.... now its been 3 years im 100% clean not even drinking coffee or any energy drinks.... and my psychosis is getting worse.... If i was just a little brave enough i would have already hanged myself.... i think abt killing myself at least 5 times a day.... ever since i was a kid i used to love thinking about the universe and as a teen i was very into simulation theory multiverse and solipsism and stuffs like that.... now my thinking habits are mixed with my psychosis and the world has become this ultra realistic 3d hell for me...even if i was sleeping on my mothers lap it wouldn't make a difference to how i feel.... Id rather get in an accident and die than experience one more psychotic episode and i know its comming in the next few minutes.... its been a year i have not even been inside a vehicle cause im extremely restlessness... if i sit on a sofa still i feel like the sofa is eating me... i know its just my mind but i actually physically feel it... its just as real as i can feel my phone on my hand right now.... even more real.... every night i have to fight with my brain to sleep i lie on bed for 3 minutes and get up immediately and walk around.... i feel sleepy but cant lie down... i rest my head on the wall and make myself extremely sleepy enough to lie down.... it takes hours for me to sleep like that every night..... this whole universe including my physical body has become a boiling water and my consciousness is the lobster..... when I wake up my only achievement in life is to go through the day and fall asleep at night peacefully... I think too much and i cant help it... the people around me sometimes look like different beings like they are objects and when they move and interact with me my mind refuses to belive that they are something alive... its like what a normal person would feel like if a chair starts moving and talking.... I have explained it to my family and friends ive seeked help on the internet and everybody says that i should be calm its only in my mind, it will go away eventually... "just dont think about it" is the worst.... I had an amazing mind... i could cheer myself up from any bad mood just by watching the orange color of the sunset... i would close my eyes for a long time and covince myself that the sky has been pink all my life and i open my eyes trick myself into believing that im watching a blue sky for the first time for a few seconds..... I would wonder does the smallest bacteria living on the tip of my nail know abt my existence??? Im a genuinely happy person and all of the ways i think my mind is amazing now i wish it wasn't... I wish i was dumb... i wish i had spent my childhood and teenage just like the rest of the kids.... i wish i thought more about girls, celebrities, sports and having fun rather that existence.... I wish I was dumb... maybe i already am or im just me someone who has no clue about his own self.... but nothing matters anymore cause my psychosis has convinced me that it wont let me go for the restof my life.... Im all fucked up and gone crazy all i can do is pretend that im normal so id just fit in... but i know eventually i wouldn't be able to pretend anymore and lose total control..... the thoughts of solipsism is stucked in my head that only my consciousness is real and everything else even my body is just its imagination....i put this comment on evry video i find useful cause the only thing that makes me feel better is that there are others like me... probably in worst situation than me... if you are... boy i know it fuckin sucks...if only there was a easy way to end it... anybody who reads this please say something back even if you think its useless.... say something to make me feel that the world i think is real is really real and not just my consciousness tricking itslef just like the pink sky....
Hi I’m sorry you’re going through this. I hope you feel some solidarity from this reply. I hope you see brighter days. I’m here and I’m real. I went through psychotic episodes which weren’t as permanent as your experience, but I still remember. I hope you can live a happy life again. I send you a hug.
So antipsychotics stop you from having auditory hallucinations and delusions but they make you feel depressed? Rip. No wonder I feel like I’m going in circles. Avanza had me hearing voices, now these antipsychotics and anti anxiety meds have me feeling depressed.
I must say that your writing is, more often than not, very difficult to read. I can't read it at a first glance, if at all. You're very informative though.
Its what they call Doctors hand writing lmao. Its amazing. My issue was with his pronounciation of certain symptoms, he mispronounced a lot and made it harder for me to google
I had this after a psychedelic trip I started feeling it midway through the trip but I didn’t know what it was. I was just paranoid. The continuing three months I couldn’t tell you how I felt. I began drinking myself to sleep because I would have panic attacks all this because I was overthinking everything as hard as it is I don’t give it vices, but all I could say what help me was changing my scenario and I know it’s the hardest thing because all you want to do is stay in but go outside go by yourself if you have to but go, I don’t know where, but go experience the beauty and nature and except the sin of men for you cannot make them be righteous only you by heart can be righteous. go outside and be thankful and appreciate. You are in control. Don’t fight battles with yourself. Might feel like a demon but you are in control. You are in control. Give it two months three months and after those three months, you’re constantly gonna wanna be doing it. Going outside anywhere to appreciate.
bro just relax, it gets better, take meds for like 4 months or what doctor recomends, many had it they just dont share, as theres stigma around it, take it as cold, u feel even better then before tbh after completing the meds, comparitavely
A man walks into a psych clinic with nothing on except for clear plastic wrap wrapped around him. The receptionist looks up and tells him "clearly sir, I can see you're nuts." -.- Anyyhoooo.... thanks very much Armando for putting this and other videos for us! :)

I have been diagnosed with schitzophrenia. When I had first diagnosed I`ve never used any kind of a drug, not even alcohol. Full episodes feel like the aspect of time is totally gone. Confusion, anxiety, happiness, fear, joy all welded together. Feelings of paranormal things totally submitting to them. Then it all came very clear... not when I used alcohol or cannabis, but when I took my first trip with lsd. It is almost exactly the same. Messing things and throwing you through time to time and feels like you never have the ability to drop it
will treatment make me feel normal ever again i smoked spice an thats what brought on my psychosis and its been 7 years till i finally opened up an im not one that likes taking pills i was told spice was natural (natural disaster) but its really taking a toll i feel like im i cant explain it but if i go back to the doctor can they make me normal again i miss the old me i try everyday to be that stand up guy that everyone loved now im just a cast away
Hey Robert, thanks for opening up on here to tell us a little bit about your experience. Although my mental health issues were not drug related, they definitely were all consuming and life-altering. At different points I have thought as you have. Wondering if I'll ever be me again. I can't know your situation exactly, but I can say from my own experience that things can get better. Healing takes a long time. It happens gradually and bit by bit. It definitely helps to open up and have reliable people to talk to. Therapy is a great option. Medications can help in the stabilization process. I would say, be open and patient. Allow the healing to unfold gently over as much time as it takes. The brain is such a sensitive organ and emotional or physical trauma really do affect it. Just like a deep cut heals gradually from the inside out, our brains and neural pathways heal. Anyway, I support you on your journey to heal. I believe that your life is worth it and that you will find yourself in new and exciting ways as well as rediscovering the pieces of yourself that have been sleeping for so long. Hope, my friend. One day at a time.
Well done for coming forward! It takes a lot. I have helped many a young person who was spaced out and unresponsive in Manchester UK on the street. Please avoid this drug like the plague! (Along with all the others!) keep seeking help and support and give your brain time to heal. It may not heal completely hence why medication can help. It took 10 years for my brain to fully heal from smoking normal cigarettes.
@Christina Reynolds i am myself diagnosed with schizoprenia but have no depressive symptums at all, thats why i believe that depression is not the same as being psycotic as i am without my medication.
In 2014, I was diagnosed with depressive psychosis. Further on, I lost the depressive components. I was diagnosed psychotic. Later on, I had depression again, but they are now considered two different illnesses. I think, personally, but not from a professional stand point, that psychotic depression is depressive hallucinations and delusions, and depression and psychosis is depression, and a normal, non depressive psychosis. That is to say my hallucinations are not necessarily depression based (vivid euphoric, or just outright strange hallucinations)
Hi Armando, I'm not sure if you have a video on SSRIs and other medications used for depression. I wasn't able to find one but if not could you please make one!
As a struggling alcoholic I can say with confidence that I have experienced alcohol-induced psychosis. It is the strangest sensation and experience. I hallucinated seeing people in my yard and I ran around my house with a gun. I knew after the fact I didn't see anyone, but with my own eyes they were there. Needless to say I got rid of my firearms and Im trying to rid myself of this poison. Shit sucks though. Just wanted to share! Hope you all are having a great day!
Hope you're doing well now
U can do it. U are an amazing person ❤️
Think that's also called "Snakes" or severe withdrawal. I experienced seeing demons 😱 stopped drinking for about a year after that episode.
I wish you the most of luck, self-awareness is the first and hardest step and i commend you for how much of it you already have :)
I’m an alcoholic but I haven’t reached that point yet but aggression is real
I experienced psychosis as a result of being overwhelmed with life, depressed and abusing Marijuana and edibles. I was delusional, paranoid and very confused along with hallucinations. I was in the psych ward of the hospital for almost 2 weeks to get better. Even when I came home I was waking up during the night confused. After months of playing around with my meds, I'm feeling back to my normal self! Godbless anyone who had gone through this or any mental health issues. 🙏
@Malow Castillo for my psychosis i take latuda personally
What meds did you take?
Can you please provide what medications you were prescribed, a loved one of mine is experiencing very similar events and we need all the information possible that could help. Please respond, you could very well be saving a life.
@@Ophiuchus47 not the original poster but I suffered a psycosis as well.
i took invega (paliperidona), 3mg first 2 months then 6 mg after 2 months then 9 for a year just to be sure my mind was completely stabilized.
see a psychiatrist and get an opinion before you go on the medication route. dont play with your mental health!
it gets better?

*SCHIZOPHRENIA TREATMENT BREAKTHROUGH*
*I read through with interest. There should be no shame. I once believed Schizophrenia or mental illness has no cure. Well, it is true with English medicine, but not with Consummo Herbs. To be clear, there is no pharmaceutical medicine, no magic pill that has any significant effect on the progressive downhill course of this disease. My daughter's experience opened my eyes to the reality of a cure through the wonders of herbs. My daughter was diagnosed with schizophrenia many years ago. I spent more time in hospital than out of hospital. She had a major breakthrough only with CONSUMMO treatment. She has been well and living her best life. While there may be other different options to into, never make your own success path a secret. I consider myself an advocate for people who don’t have a voice.*

I remember waking up to a psychotic episode that came out of nowhere at about 2am one night. It lasted for at least 2 hours and I had a voice in my head telling me to kill myself even though I wasn't depressed and had never had suicidal thoughts before.
I had to get a cold shower for like 30 mins to calm me down just enough where I could fall back to sleep.
It was absolutely terrifying, god help the people who have to experience something like that regularly.
I was about to go to sleep and randomly lost touch with reality. Its still happening rn and started 2 days ago

@ hmmmm
I usually get a lot of lesser psychosis symptoms/hallucinations due to caffeine abuse and high stress lmao
Given that I'm also depressed thoughh, I'm quite surprised I haven't heard the voices tell me to kill myself though.
i felt as scared as you did when i watched don’t hug me
I experience psychosis from time to time and let me tell you what i had never known how fragile reality is.
Fucking true fact brother
@@Peter-ie6po frfr
I had my first psychosis about a month ago and it really opened my eyes to how 'psycho' people think and made me see the world from both sides after I was in my psychosis. I remember a lot. I definitely still see mass murders and such as monsters but I can understand their perception of reality and why they do these horrible things. When I was in my psychosis I was able to run outside naked despite having a severe social anxiety where I can't even say hi to my internet friends with text. I was able to talk with anyone naked and I thought the world was against me. There was so much in this 'world' that made me do things I would absolutely never do. I almost threw my caretaker out my window, I screamed and banged at the hospital door with all my strength, I thought people could read my mind and at one point I really thought I was going to heaven. I was just not sane but in my world my mind fooled me into believing I was right and what I did was the only way. Someone saying no or blocking me? That person is the enemy, because I thought then that me and others were in danger.
I got it from sleep deprivation (not sleeping in 2-3 days), going on Concerta (ADHD medication) and being in a lot of stress due to all kinds of stuff at that time, all this together made my brain snap. When my brain snapped it really felt like someone called me, like I suddenly experienced life from a higher level and that god himself or something in control told me that me and future peoples lives were in danger. Thinking this, or rather feeling this in a way I've never felt before, made me think this was something extremely important that I had no choice on and just do right now. THIS, this right here is what made me do those extreme things. Things like I mentioned above, I ran outside naked and almost threw someone out my window. It was like my mind gave me missions to do every now n then and that I only had a few seconds to complete them, making me panic and probably look like a real crazy guy while I was screaming and doing really stupid stuff.
So hard to explain but. Believe me.. it's something way different. Your mind completely fools you. Hell, it felt so real it even took me a day or two to finally go 'okay, that was completely horseshit. None of that was real. That 'god' call was not real'.
The same happens to my elder brother and he sometimes think he's god himself. he would try to kill or talk to his voice on his own head. it must be horrible and scary to constantly live and struggle like that, l don't have psychosis never suffered from it. But l've got depression and anxiety.
That’s fucking rough bro. I hope you’re doing better tho, i also feel like i experienced some sort of psychosis before
Perfectly described for my situation last year, too. It's like a "god call" and you feel like you have no choice, but to act spontaneously and very fast or you or someone other gets in real danger. I jumped out of my car, blocking the traffic and had nothing but multiply reports. I needed some weeks, to recognize the mess i created there.
I know what you mean as in the mind twists up reality and you feel like your almost getting obsessed in something that isn't real. For years, I believed in the illuminati, I believed a cult ruled the world, I believed that the freemasons were running the UK, America and every nation on earth because I myself was filled with doubt. I needed that there because I was very shy at school, I was very quiet so I guess physcosis happens when the world your in is too stressful for you to handle so your mind tries to use delusions as a form of escapism. But, these delusions lead you into a darker and more depressive hole. Because of you are deluded, your social skills break, if your deluded, your self esteem breaks. This is why mental illness is so complex. Because its not a broken arm, it's so much more varied and there's such a broad range of issues and treatments. That's why it's difficult to identify an issue and recover.
I understand the part where you felt like people were blocking you from helping other people if they told you no they were In the way.
idk why im looking into this so much when I already take meds for all this ._____. this is kinda reminds me that I'm not alone with having a.."problem" I guess. to the other people like me, who suffer. you got this, and you will make it. i love you.
Thank you, I feel so lost.. disconnected. I’m getting my life together and reaching my goals but I still am dealing with mental health. You are not alone, keep fighting.
@@Seeker4you2 hey me too, I had my 2nd episode this June. Its not going away regardless of my medication. I feel like a shadow of my former self, I can hardly think :(
I hope to make out of this. Hope you do too. Take care
@@Jose-oq6kj have you tried doing a jigsaw puzzle. Totally random, I know but it might retrain your concentration levels and when you complete even a small part you might feel a "small win" to give you the inventive to keep going and concentrate longer.

Wow, it's incredible to me that the disfunction in primarily just two neural pathways in the brain can result in a severely life altering disorder for someone.
Yeah neurons are like a gigantic spiderweb. One signal or event in one spreads out into an enormous volume of others.

😂
@@reecefebruary So, Jesus, Allah, spirits, ghosts, and gender, are not real, thus imaginary?
Yeah, I thought the same.
@@veronicagorosito187 thats what faith is. 5 years old you thinks that you knows the world, but the current you knows that 5 years old you is wrong, and current you that understand reality. 90 years old you will think that current you is immature. So the question is, how far will it go? And at which point will you really know, that you know it all, and it's the ultimate non-changing truth from that point onwards? To blindly say that god is real is wrong, same goes to say that god doesnt exist. I think it's better to have a open mind and accepting change as we experience more and more of this world. But be sure to enjoy yourself in the process of learning rather than forcing yourself to stay in a perception of something you choose to believe at one point in time.
i am MADMAN WHAT DE FUQ I SHOULD DO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I had a psychotic break yesterday truly believed my friends were plotting to murder me and hurt me I genuinely thought it and began sweating and getting so distorted I wanted to die it was terrifying I don’t want to live this way anymore
Same! I once was taken in an ambulance bc I believed there was going to be a terrorist attack in the metro. Once in the ambulance, the 3 doctors were men and I screamed at them beggin for them to not rape me. I believed they were trying to kill me. You're not alone and we'll get over this!!
@@shazzalennon6327 Soooo, is that paranoia?
During the hight of ISIS attacks, I used to try and "predict" if an attack was going to occur... I recall once in 2015 I was feeling bad; almost nothing was going good for me, school stress and no joy. There was a famous Shia holy day "Aashoora", and ISIS hated Shia's, I recall telling my friend "I have a gut feeling that that day is going to be a dark day in Qatif".
I recall I was in the car; sad for no reason, then I hear in the radio in that afternoon that ISIS bomb a mosque in Qatif and dozens of people were injured and killed... It was sad for me to hear that, yet breifly happy that my prediction was right... but that was a emotion-driven "prediction"/assumption (I'm feeling fear; therefore a bad thing is going to occur, like I felt like something bad will happen because I was feeling fear or something like that).
And I attributed that to my grandmother feeling bad or falling ill when a relative of her's passes away. She generally gets ill even though she did'nt know about the bad news (seems like an interesting observation by people around her).
In the name of Jesus Christ heal these people
@@thetruthofthematter8715 ...Thanks? Psychosis can't just be ''healed'' like that. If that's how it worked, this video wouldn't exist.
You're not alone
Emotional shock. Hardship. Neglect. Poverty. Adversity. Loneliness. These all factor in psychosis, delusions, many personalities.
Yes!

Psychosis is a medical term used to describe hearing or seeing things that do not exist, or believing things that other people do not.
And don't forget there's no cure.
Anxiety paranoia anger all at once. Forgetfulness, or thinking you lost something when it’s right in front of their face. Carries for days and during those days digging up every piece of dirt that will piss you off. Purposely searching for problems when they are really not that bad.
I've been through hell in my psychotic break. I remember being accused of faking it the whole time because of how it expressed. I was so talkative, I couldn't shut up. It felt like my life depended on expressing something. Through the whole matter though, the worst part was the treatment I received from certain family members and the community I live in.
I've had to educate myself on what happened because through the whole process, I was treated by mental health '"professionals" like I was just being problematic and trying to get attention.
Maybe, I really was trying to get attention because I was reaching out for someone to see me underneath the erratic behavior as someone who did need help.
Thank you for this informative video. I wish someone would have taken the time to explain this to me sooner, but I found it now and it's helping me now.
I know how it is... Exactly. I am only 19 and learned about myself and such in so many ways. I am not schizophrenic but I learned how to overcome negative thoughts. Sometimes it feels like you're dying and it's all over, hang in there.
My husband experienced this. He decided to self medicate with more alcohol than usual, and then he added edibles. Then he needed to go to the ER because after donating platelets one Saturday, he followed it up with a night of heavy drinking and wound up dehydrated. It has nearly been a year. He is doing a little better.
Mental health professionals usually suck
You didn't mention bipolar or major depressive disorder. You can have psychosis with them
Yeah I have major depression with pyshcosis and it's not fun
I'm really surprised he didn't mention psychotic depression actually
I've had bipolar hallucinations and delusions myself.Many psychiatric illnesses can have this issue.
not a person Oh no, I’m so sorry. Hope you are getting the medical help, love and support you need ❤️
I wish he had mentioned bipolar too, but I guess he did not do it because it happens only with bipolar type I, so he would have to explain a lot about this disorder.
Just did a short course on this. Very interesting and something everyone in the health industry should know.
I'm a 3rd year medical student and we absolutely learn about this.
My grown daughter is suffering with this right now. I'm taking care of her and it's overwhelming I'll be do glad when it's over dec 18 ,2020
how's it going?

What do you mean when it's over?
AVOID STRESS! u cant fight with delusion or halucination even ur try to thinking logic.. it will bigger and worst... delusion will disappear naturally if u do constantly activities , dont always alone , hangout with your friends
True bro agree
Thanks man
So avoid stress by doing stressful things?
Such a great way of explaining the pathway system. Thank you!
I did a psychosis from substance abuse, I took 3 tabs of lsd mixed with shrooms and 2 different products of Cannabis. The whole experience is too long to write but I'll have to say that please be careful with the consomation of substances(drugs). I was in a state of mind where I wanted to get fucked up cuz at that time I had mental health problems (depression which is why of the substance abuse)
That is alot the heck x, d sheesh
Hi are you better?

Great video! Thanks for making it! I was diagnosed with clinical depression complicated by schizoaffective disorder in 1992. Fortunately, the Schizoaffective disorder is almost entirely in remission, but I still dissociate, particularly when I am trying to focus on a technical project. The depression is somewhat in remission but always in the background like a heavy weight.
In 1992, I had a psychotic break. I was 26, and a Pentecostal Christian. I totally immersed myself in my religion, and began to hear God's voice as a persistent interlocutor. I had doubts about the voice and began questioning my sanity and soon began to viscerally "feel" demons in my bedroom at night. I fell into a depression that was close to catatonic, and was treated with antipsychotics.
Since I have been studying philosophy, human behavioral evolution, psychology and whatever neuroscience I can grasp. For me, delving into the how and why helped me get out in front of the delusions. Today I am an atheist, anti-theist philosopher and optical engineer in the Planetarium field. Understanding goes a long ways towards healing.

@@mr.drummond4656 Sorry for the delay, I guess I need to check my notifications settings. No, I didn't go down the ECT road. I Only had a few catatonic episodes. I am on the minimal dose of seroquel, trazadone, buspar and ritalin these days.
(Does anyone else have these following issues?)
I’m continuously watching this video after a decade of being diagnosed as bipolar, and a life of being diagnosed with autism. Today, at 28 I received a fresh diagnosis of 🌟 Schizophrenia 🌟 and this video makes total sense to me. More than anything I have watched on CZcams in a long time. It irks me that I have done 10 years of higher ed, and didn't learn more than basic psychology. Anyway, I pretty much live in non-bizarre delusions and I know it. So much so that they are clear movies in my head and I create thorough hypothetical situations with the same premise over and over but a new script. I complete the tasks I remember, but I never stop thinking of these hypothetical events that I really want to happen. Like chances to prove myself in instances where I feel like I was unheard or wronged. I’m obsessed over it. I’ve never been this way. Though being highly irritable has been the bane of my existence, anger management helped with that a lot. Shrugging off ignorant people daily is tough, but it’s better for me to not dwell on it. My biggest issue is that I think I lack the ability to genuinely nurture and care for other people. Unfortunately, I think my nature and nurture were both crap. I’m pacing constantly, I can’t eat or sleep, I can’t maintain relationships despite not having bad intentions. Man, I just don’t see myself living a full healthy life. I just don’t see how it’s possible when I don’t have control over my own thoughts. I can’t even speak the way I type. My entire life, people have called me highly intelligent. Recently I’ve been reduced to a sack of dumbness. Just mumbly and confused. Air-headed even when I know I can speak circles around the most eloquent people I have ever met, but I get over it pretty quickly. Negative comments about my intelligence are new, so it doesn’t hurt me if that makes sense. Now that I have videos like this, I can say yes. I know my abilities but I also know how I’m presenting to people and both can be true. I think it’s important to put extra time and work into protecting what thoughts I have left and patterns that make me content. Setting alarms for things like turning off appliances and making my bed, truly helps me feel less irritated at the "top" of my days. As of lately, I am painting, engineering things, and making music at a level I haven’t been able to before; but I barely remember doing it or how long it takes. I don’t really care what happens going forward, but I’m hyper-interested in knowing. I think being in my home on lock down was the worst thing that could have happened to me at this stage of my life. I’m super comfortable with complacency now. Ahh, one more thing, super scared to tell my doctor that my eyes are doing this thing where they take a while to focus on one thing, I didn’t tell him that I feel super anxious at all times or that I keep stretching, getting naked, punching walls, and whistling; but I’m sure it’s all connected.
TaylorLaurie the information I'm about to give you will change your life, listen, can I convince you to eat and drink 100% USDA organic and if you can grow your own food, all the better.? The information I'm about to give you will change your life. Objective in this is that you are avoiding the chemicals that they are adding into the food. Don't quit taking any medications that you are prescribed,. Especially your schizophrenia medication. I promise you will see Improvement and it's going to happen like this. It takes 21 days to get the drugs in the food out of your system. And by the way if you happened to go back to food that is non-usda organic it will take the same amount of days, 21 days for it to fully get back in your system and it takes another 21 days of you going back to organic food 100%, to get these drugs in the food, back out of your system again. You are going to notice the difference. You're also going to notice that the shape of your head is going to get a little smaller, that's because these drugs in the food make us hold water. It's opening up your lymphatic system and now your body can actually detox. You will notice in a matter of months when you are hypothalamus has healed because these drugs in the food cause a sore on hypothalamus. The job of the hypothalamus is to create our eight major hormones and now since you would have given your hypothalamus a chance to heal your eight major hormones will function like God intended. You going to feel better every day. Each year passes you're going to hit a mark of feeling better. If you look at it in the way of this being for the rest of your life damage control on what has been in the food causing the harms, so this will be a good way of looking at why you will be eating organic among many other good reasons. So I've got to explain now listen, you can't eat out at restaurants anymore. You have to get good at carrying your own snacks around. Couple items you can eat if you have to eat out, would be eggs and potatoes but nothing more not even condiments or spices or seasonings especially. You specifically want to avoid excitotoxins AKA MSG. Excitotoxins causes the brain to work way too fast where the brain is supposed to go nice and slow. Look up the book, excitotoxins the taste that kills by Dr Russell L blalock, A Neurosurgeon a brain doctor. This information is going to change your life please listen to me. Anyone else in this section reading this, same message to all of you.
Relax... you're over thinking it

Ive been hospitalized for paranoid delusions , have them often enough that they don’t really bother me anymore, I’m used to them and know how to handle them as best I can, but one time I made the mistake of telling someone new right after it happened which landed in the psych ward
The first of the two psychiatrists I saw while there told me they didn’t think I had a psychosis based illness or whatnot but rather that it’s just an intense stress response, I’ve never heard of simple stress leading to that severe of symptoms so i now also take an antipsychotic as i keep searching for more answers and stuff but it’s so interesting what the brain can do and how little has to be wrong to cause such drastic symptoms
Yes, extreme stress or anxiety, or a traumatic event (like sudden death of a loved one) can cause someone to go into psychosis, especially if you have allowed stress to build up over time. It happened to one of my kids, who has always been anxious, and also has ADD. No bipolar, no schizophrenia.
I had a psychotic breakdown and have experienced psychotic episodes since. It is the scariest single thing to be happening and it is so hard to make sense of after. Bc whats going on in your head makes so much sense at the time. It is scary. I hope everyone gets better.
I also experience psychosic when i smoke weed.
Every single time i smoke weed. It never has gotten better.
@@stephaniedugan how long have you been smoking weed
Stop smoking weed?
@@wovasteengova i dont smoke weed but thanks?
Thank You for this! Very Important!
I had a long psycosis and was locked up for my own safety, i remeber at the psyc-ward i *tried to remove all the mirrors checking for camreas, went outside my room and sat on the floor putting plastic pieces between my door so i could see if someone opened it.
Went a while then a lot of staff came and stood around me while one gave me medication, i could not understand why and what i did wrong..
Today i do but still, horrific memory
Now, I am so relief.Thank you so much.
Known I’ve had mental problems and psychotic symptoms for many years now it started slowly and then all at once. I’m a completely functional person and quite independent but I’m very disconnected with what human life is and what I’m expected to do in the society, especially faced with everything I’ve learned.. yes, I’ve had drug use as a teen and throughout my 20s plenty of drinking to and quite a few events that I have stolen a lot of time and effort I put it in my life. But what really triggered my mental state for the last few years were some of the things I learned from my accessibility and briefing of technologies that came from extraterrestrial origins. Not the fact that aliens exist, and what they’re capable of, but rather histories and events that have happened things that are taking place and overall inability to function, knowing what I’ve learned and try to go on with my daily life, like everybody else who are in a strange way, blessed to be ignorant. There’s so much I do know there’s a lot of things I don’t know for sure many contradictory things. There are lies that cover truth, and their truth cover lies. There’s so much I just can’t say as much as I want to, it’s hard to wanna live life, knowing the big picture of humanity is terribly insignificant, and that our society is weak and a joke and a giant tapestry of wasted potential. I’ve learned that so much of what gave me a Drive to live life, have hope for the future. There really are forces behind the scenes that our entire civilization will never be able to grasp or escape from.. the lies upon lies, and just trying to readjust my self, and find a way of thinking about my conscious self, and what I should do with my time, knowing what I know. So far the best option is to pretend and go along with the narrative and play my role. I just really hope humanity will endure, and that true goodness will come. And that we stop being controlled and manipulated and rise above it, and gain independence as a species and a civilization. And that everybody learns the truth of our history.
I relate to what you wrote. Very interesting comment thank you for sharing. You put in words a couple of my thoughts that I have trouble explaining. Hope you are doing well!
That was awesome. I have been trying to find a training course which explains this. (work in mental health and just like to know how things work) and this is really interesting and explains a lot.
I had a psychosis breakdown 1.5y ago i saw demon and belived i talked to god. I was in the hospital for a month i was sceraming, believeing funny things, assuming that people are doing stuff to me. Somehow i knew what was gonna happend every momment, like i controled time, i saw my body from above... Today im off medicine and i dont hallucinate or hear anything and i just think sometimes about it, it makes my hands sweat when i remember my suffering. I wonder will it ever come back. Hardest year ever
You are not alone. I was scared too. It def felt spiritual. I was hospitaliZed and the psychosis remained after the hospital. Felt blessed and cursed.

Very well drawn & explained!!!!
Excellent video!!!!
Wonderful medical content but that artwork! I was absolutely transfixed. I can't even imagine being able to draw a flawless presentation like that on the fly!
Just found out my 61 year old brother was diagnosed with psychosis, he never filled his prescriptions or followed up with Dr. Had no insurance. Nobody helped him, he self diagnosed himself! Had a massive stroke in 2019.
If i may ask how did he self diagnose ? With what?
I understand this is about the dopamine theory of schizophrenia and admittedly I have not looked through your other videos yet, but I think the glutamate theory and how it affects dopamine is very interesting to include as well.
great explanation very detailed and systematic! thank you
Great lecture!! Bravo!!
I’ve thought for ages that I have ADD inattentive, but now judging from what I’ve seen and read I think I might have a form of psychosis from my recreational use of hard scripts and stimulants. I sometimes see shadows in the corner of my eye, when I’m home alone and having a ciggie I may (or may not) hear something and always get freaked out and frantically check my surroundings thinking I’ll get attacked, when I sleep I feel like something is touching my legs like bugs or something even tho a bug wouldnt be able to get there, racing and continuous thoughts, intrusive thoughts like jumping off balconies when I’m sitting on one in a chair, holding knives and thinking about stabbing someone even if I would never want to, it scares me that one day I might actually break from all my mental pressure and really do something like that one day, which makes all the intrusive thoughts that much more scary
Similar issues here but I don't touch any substances, no alcohol, no caffeine, no weed, no medication
Whoah...a scientist with fantastic ability to draw!
Well, unlike my biology teacher when I was at Highschool. She could hardly draw a straight line...
wow! fantastic video. Thanks so much!
Great Video with excellent explanations and diagrams...
will watch again, the drawings help, thank you. thumbs up from me.

This was the best video I’ve seen on the topic until you stopped before explaining how antipsychotics affect the synapses that DONT release enough dopamine!
Fascinating to learn that dopamine run amuk is at the heart of quite a few disorders.
helpful review before my midterm later today. thanks!
I went to a psychiatrist to see if I had schizophrenia and they said I had bipolar disorder. I had two months where I would hear things that weren't there, and seeing things that weren't there.. I always think the worst will happen, some of my thoughts don't feel like my own, I have a speech disorder as well. Should I still go get a second opinion?
no
Don't stress yourself out over it either we are only human. You are normal as yourself :)
Alogia is the inability to speak because of mental defect, mental confusion, or aphasia. It is a speech disturbance that can be seen in people with dementia. However, it is often associated with the negative symptoms of schizophrenia. Alogia has been called a poverty of speech, or a reduction in the amount of speech.
Hello, hope you read my question.
Is it possible that repetitive psychotic breaks can cause brain damage?
Thank you so much for your help ❤
I had a bizzare delution a while ago in the hospital after taking an overdose on 4mmc, weed, and xtc. It was exactly how you explained it, I tought my dad was replaced... Thanks i understand i had a psychosis and i got out of it really well😄
It mostly got better over time. i stopped with all drugs for a while, that helped a lot.
Are you watching this video bc you are "scared" you have some things like delusions or psychosis?
my experiences with psychedelics and trauma received from my first love have left me so fucked up. I've spent like a month in therapy, but now i'm just doing more research on psychology on my free time outside of being educated in college. I had picked up a few books on psychology today but as im learning more and more, it's like im figuring out more things that are wrong with me, but now i can articulate a little more in depth, i just hope i get better instead of going more insane.
Am really sorry for what you went through.. keep going
Where is the other video on schizophrenia and antipsychotics? Have my exam on Monday 😩 and it really helped me but now I can’t find it. HELP
Does nutmeg cause the same type of psychosis as shown in this video?
I am a girl with psychosis, but when I tell people they always tell me that "I don't look like it". Like are you serious? I have also been told, "but you wear makeup and don't seem crazy". Like jeee thanks........
Congratulations for your achievements..
Try to understand symbolic language of psychosis..
I know right They always think Psycosis means like Im a psycopath
Most people are darn dumb, except within their limited horizon.
its basically like taking the worst hallucinogen imaginable
actually, people have described the hallucinations from psychosis as being very similar to that of a deliriant or anticholinergic such as belladonna or datura
Thank you for this one. Very helpful.
My mom have the positive symptoms and she suffered with this for about 20 years now, she took first meds from psy but refused to change them,its impossible to convince her to take other meds than the very first ones she got, she trusts nobody. We just started a new tactic with her today that i hope it will help her.
After watching your video i made sure that i herited this mental illness too, and it seems that i have negative symtoms and i think its in the begining now, i will go check a psy asap. thank you, you probably saved me from more than 20 years of suffering :)
What's the tactic?
So, I've recently discovered that alcohol and marijuana triggers psychosis in me, which in turn triggers my depression, which THEN drives my self esteem down to the ground. My psychosis episodes last around 5 or 6 months. I will hate myself for that long. :\ I dont drink or smoke anymore been clean and straight for a year solid.
Congratulations! Keep it up never go back to those thoughts!
I'm surprised you didn't include bipolar mania as a possible cause of psychosis. I'm sure you know that almost every antipsychotic is also a bipolar medication, and often because they treat or prevent manic psychosis..
You r truly incredible, never before understood the topic this good👍
Man, driving and listening to CZcams videos that just pop up and then coming back to watch sure clarifies things.

You all don't understand a thing about gravity. The disorganization is about not being able to have it work, because a toaster cannot work if it's not plugged to the connections. That's what makes the difference between a person and a spirit, you know? No one, and I mean NO ONE has a right to use a toaster bigger than the spirit, right? Right.
My mother got Psychosis from an iv steroid (methylprednisolone) she was never treated for that when she got it, why wouldn't they treat the first signs of psychosis before the brain goes full psychosis?...she passed away from the steroid, was never treated with medicine to help fix the state of the brain it was in
Iam so sorry
I think both your information and handwriting is awesome.
Excellent. Thanks.
And buzzing in the head hearing voices
Silence sounds like buzzing tho
Don't forget to include epilepsy as an underlying disease for psychotic disorder
Really good intro, thanks!
Hi, thank you for this video.
I have a question on the primary and secondary illness. How will you categories severe depression with element of psychoses?

Can clozapine cause anxiety as a side effect?
Help me someone.... I smoked regular weed and did lots of opium for 4 years but the first couple of time I smoked spice (Synthetic Cannibis), I was extremely paranoid even though my friends who also did it first time said it felt amazing.... I used to feel pride in telling others im a hardcore drug addict so I did it again after somedays as I only took small puffs even though I didn't wanted to... and it would still give me panic attacks and I would walk around the room pretending Im having fun.... eventually I quit and started drinking too much... I was all right and clean of drugs for a year and than suddenly one day I had that dissoving in my psychical environmemt kind of feeling and it was horrible although I was completely sober at that time... I felt alright aftet few minutes and than after couple of day it happened again and was permanent.... now its been 3 years im 100% clean not even drinking coffee or any energy drinks.... and my psychosis is getting worse.... If i was just a little brave enough i would have already hanged myself.... i think abt killing myself at least 5 times a day.... ever since i was a kid i used to love thinking about the universe and as a teen i was very into simulation theory multiverse and solipsism and stuffs like that.... now my thinking habits are mixed with my psychosis and the world has become this ultra realistic 3d hell for me...even if i was sleeping on my mothers lap it wouldn't make a difference to how i feel.... Id rather get in an accident and die than experience one more psychotic episode and i know its comming in the next few minutes.... its been a year i have not even been inside a vehicle cause im extremely restlessness... if i sit on a sofa still i feel like the sofa is eating me... i know its just my mind but i actually physically feel it... its just as real as i can feel my phone on my hand right now.... even more real.... every night i have to fight with my brain to sleep i lie on bed for 3 minutes and get up immediately and walk around.... i feel sleepy but cant lie down... i rest my head on the wall and make myself extremely sleepy enough to lie down.... it takes hours for me to sleep like that every night..... this whole universe including my physical body has become a boiling water and my consciousness is the lobster..... when I wake up my only achievement in life is to go through the day and fall asleep at night peacefully... I think too much and i cant help it... the people around me sometimes look like different beings like they are objects and when they move and interact with me my mind refuses to belive that they are something alive... its like what a normal person would feel like if a chair starts moving and talking.... I have explained it to my family and friends ive seeked help on the internet and everybody says that i should be calm its only in my mind, it will go away eventually... "just dont think about it" is the worst.... I had an amazing mind... i could cheer myself up from any bad mood just by watching the orange color of the sunset... i would close my eyes for a long time and covince myself that the sky has been pink all my life and i open my eyes trick myself into believing that im watching a blue sky for the first time for a few seconds..... I would wonder does the smallest bacteria living on the tip of my nail know abt my existence??? Im a genuinely happy person and all of the ways i think my mind is amazing now i wish it wasn't... I wish i was dumb... i wish i had spent my childhood and teenage just like the rest of the kids.... i wish i thought more about girls, celebrities, sports and having fun rather that existence....
I wish I was dumb... maybe i already am or im just me someone who has no clue about his own self.... but nothing matters anymore cause my psychosis has convinced me that it wont let me go for the restof my life.... Im all fucked up and gone crazy all i can do is pretend that im normal so id just fit in... but i know eventually i wouldn't be able to pretend anymore and lose total control..... the thoughts of solipsism is stucked in my head that only my consciousness is real and everything else even my body is just its imagination....i put this comment on evry video i find useful cause the only thing that makes me feel better is that there are others like me... probably in worst situation than me... if you are... boy i know it fuckin sucks...if only there was a easy way to end it... anybody who reads this please say something back even if you think its useless.... say something to make me feel that the world i think is real is really real and not just my consciousness tricking itslef just like the pink sky....
Hi I’m sorry you’re going through this. I hope you feel some solidarity from this reply. I hope you see brighter days. I’m here and I’m real. I went through psychotic episodes which weren’t as permanent as your experience, but I still remember. I hope you can live a happy life again. I send you a hug.
Eat good food like nuts and milk a lot
So antipsychotics stop you from having auditory hallucinations and delusions but they make you feel depressed? Rip. No wonder I feel like I’m going in circles. Avanza had me hearing voices, now these antipsychotics and anti anxiety meds have me feeling depressed.
Me too how long have you been on it?
I must say that your writing is, more often than not, very difficult to read. I can't read it at a first glance, if at all. You're very informative though.

Very helpful! Thankyou
I had this after a psychedelic trip I started feeling it midway through the trip but I didn’t know what it was. I was just paranoid. The continuing three months I couldn’t tell you how I felt. I began drinking myself to sleep because I would have panic attacks all this because I was overthinking everything as hard as it is I don’t give it vices, but all I could say what help me was changing my scenario and I know it’s the hardest thing because all you want to do is stay in but go outside go by yourself if you have to but go, I don’t know where, but go experience the beauty and nature and except the sin of men for you cannot make them be righteous only you by heart can be righteous. go outside and be thankful and appreciate. You are in control. Don’t fight battles with yourself. Might feel like a demon but you are in control. You are in control. Give it two months three months and after those three months, you’re constantly gonna wanna be doing it. Going outside anywhere to appreciate.
bro just relax, it gets better, take meds for like 4 months or what doctor recomends, many had it they just dont share, as theres stigma around it, take it as cold, u feel even better then before tbh after completing the meds, comparitavely
What is reality?
It's all in your right brain that is where society is simulated
who else got so high on weed that they expirienced a psycosis episode? Just me?

Happens everytime i smoke. So i dont try anymore

I just had psychosis for the first time two days ago, I know I’ll get through it but does anyone have any tips ?
I have been diagnosed with schitzophrenia. When I had first diagnosed I`ve never used any kind of a drug, not even alcohol. Full episodes feel like the aspect of time is totally gone. Confusion, anxiety, happiness, fear, joy all welded together. Feelings of paranormal things totally submitting to them.
Then it all came very clear... not when I used alcohol or cannabis, but when I took my first trip with lsd. It is almost exactly the same. Messing things and throwing you through time to time and feels like you never have the ability to drop it
You're saying the LSD experience is the same experience as schizophrenic states?
@@tzargon827 not the same but very similar
will treatment make me feel normal ever again i smoked spice an thats what brought on my psychosis and its been 7 years till i finally opened up an im not one that likes taking pills i was told spice was natural (natural disaster) but its really taking a toll i feel like im i cant explain it but if i go back to the doctor can they make me normal again i miss the old me i try everyday to be that stand up guy that everyone loved now im just a cast away
Hey Robert, thanks for opening up on here to tell us a little bit about your experience. Although my mental health issues were not drug related, they definitely were all consuming and life-altering. At different points I have thought as you have. Wondering if I'll ever be me again. I can't know your situation exactly, but I can say from my own experience that things can get better. Healing takes a long time. It happens gradually and bit by bit. It definitely helps to open up and have reliable people to talk to. Therapy is a great option. Medications can help in the stabilization process. I would say, be open and patient. Allow the healing to unfold gently over as much time as it takes. The brain is such a sensitive organ and emotional or physical trauma really do affect it. Just like a deep cut heals gradually from the inside out, our brains and neural pathways heal. Anyway, I support you on your journey to heal. I believe that your life is worth it and that you will find yourself in new and exciting ways as well as rediscovering the pieces of yourself that have been sleeping for so long. Hope, my friend. One day at a time.
Well done for coming forward! It takes a lot. I have helped many a young person who was spaced out and unresponsive in Manchester UK on the street. Please avoid this drug like the plague! (Along with all the others!) keep seeking help and support and give your brain time to heal. It may not heal completely hence why medication can help. It took 10 years for my brain to fully heal from smoking normal cigarettes.
Robert Smith my ex-husband smoked spice and ended up with permanent brain damage which eventually lead to his early death. Get it checked!
Work with a GP and a psychiatrist that you trust.
Robert you are experiencing a spiritual awakening you have to face it with an open mind
I already knew how much of a psychology nerd I am but this video just proved it. I get way too exited learning abt psychology lol
You are Masterpiece 🔥🔥 bro
Until the paranormal is truly studied and taken seriously, these symptoms will continue to be beaten down with drugs.
You left out the most common condition. DEPRESSION
depression is not a phsycosis they are 2 compleatly diferant conditions.
carl aylward so u never heard bout psychotic depression?
@Christina Reynolds i am myself diagnosed with schizoprenia but have no depressive symptums at all, thats why i believe that depression is not the same as being psycotic as i am without my medication.
In 2014, I was diagnosed with depressive psychosis.
Further on, I lost the depressive components. I was diagnosed psychotic. Later on, I had depression again, but they are now considered two different illnesses. I think, personally, but not from a professional stand point, that psychotic depression is depressive hallucinations and delusions, and depression and psychosis is depression, and a normal, non depressive psychosis. That is to say my hallucinations are not necessarily depression based (vivid euphoric, or just outright strange hallucinations)
Very good explanation

Thank you for you educational video.
Hi Armando, I'm not sure if you have a video on SSRIs and other medications used for depression. I wasn't able to find one but if not could you please make one!
SSRIs are the worst. The bind to the same receptors as LSD and other psychedelic which makes trips weak while you're on SSRIs
