Is this aimed at me?
Oddly, this is one of the only media representations of schizophrenia I've seen that actually gets the symptoms right.
You can tell the edgy comments that are like "santa claus lives in my teeth!" are the ones that never experienced psychosis in their lives
It's sad that the Onion is unironically the most accurate news source there is.

@@user-ec3rm9wr1n so talking behind ppls backs is good?
As a schizophrenic myself I‘m happy to say that they have since implemented all of these help measures. God bless them.
I'm watching you.
You're not schizophrenic
You somehow have all forms?
They are also putting microphones in your microwave. Thats why they call them Microwaves
Then you have a very pacific case of paranoid schizophrenia, should also go back on you’re medication. Lol I’m actually schizoeffective, be a little more creative man. I’m doing some usual thread reading. I’m well aware it’s not real, schizophrenia means split mind, like living in 2 worlds at once bassicly. I’ve seen dead children, people hanging, to my own sisters head watching me. We’ve got absolutely titanium fkn balls brother. Lol😂
As a paranoid schizophrenic, I'm glad to know that these people are looking out for me.

As a semi regular person with schitzo aspirations I am happy to know I won't be alone when I reach diagnosis..thx
That’s right, literally everyone you pass by in your daily life is looking out for you! Many are also coordinating their…help. They want what’s best for you. We all want what’s best for you. Comply with our help. Let us help. You need our help.
Why is the onion so damn good at writing around serious conditions, while keeping it realistic, not offensive to those with the condition and hilarious to all? Their channel from 8-12 years ago is absolute gold, their writers need oscars
It's too bad they don't make these kind of videos anymore :(
The producers would “commit suicide” with 2 bullets in the back of their heads if they made anything like this now.
@@AdolfTrumpler i mean considering that basically every person with a condition they made skits on laughed, i doubt it.

@@apollo1573 "which is obviously not possible if you shot yourself"
Not with that attitude...
It is so depressing to see how little the government does to help schizophrenics nowadays compared to just 15 years ago.
Ive heard that ever since the aliens left New Mexico they have now since found a new home in Wuhan, China in which these kind aliens helped develop groundbreaking technologies in our masks and vaccines so that we can control everybody around these schizophrenics in order to help them more effeciently without the use of outdated technologies like phone booths and radio waves.
They just want to do so less invasive, and so aren't public about it and all. They do this still, and much, much, MUCH more. They're always watching our schizophrenic populations, very closely, and often overtly 😇
@@Reblwitoutacause Nah, they're so busy helping other countries' schizophrenics that they neglect the local population.
It's a good thing the internet private sector has picked up some of the slack. It's just not the same. Nowadays, you have to go online and on social medias to be properly watched and monitored.
OK buzzkill, dry ass comment no one cares
Sad pattern ive noticed: schizophrenia is a common disease found in people doing horrible things with news coverage.
There is evidence of things like subliminal messages and other forms of subtle brain washing.
Schizophrenics are easily to manipulate as they would likely mistake attempts as hallucinations or delusions.
I believe they are being manipulated now as an easy source for black flag ops victims
Oh man it's so perfect

@Srithor You are doing a piss poor job of explaining any of these points. You want to be understood then its up to you to make yourself understood instead of insulting people because of your own incapabilities. The video DOES mention paranoid schizophrenia "Improving care for america's paranoid schizophrenics". Its a joke video clearly not meant to take seriously...
@Srithor sorry to burst your ego bubble but literally the whole video it displays a box saying 'America's Paranoid Schizophrenics'. The main part is them being paranoid, but it's upgraded by adding schizophrenia
Srithor if I may ask, you claim to be a professional no? If that’s the case may I ask why you said they confused a neurological disorder with a plausible symptom of said disorder? I’m kind of confused why you felt the need to state that if the point of the joke is that they would be exasperating the joke. I’m currently studding neuroscience and would just like a clarification on that point since that seems like and important thing to note. Since you seem to be knowledgeable in the field I would love it if you could explain this. I could see it as a confusion between just general paranoia versus paranoid schizophrenia as what you were stating to be the confusion. But that wouldn’t make sense considering they were hinting at symptoms that would not be apart of some sort of general paranoia disorder and would be more inline with schizophrenia. Thanks in advance and I hope to hear back from you soon! :)
Srithor can I ask why symptom is in air quotes? It seems like you are not disputing the fact that it’s a symptom which is what it sounded like from some of your arguments. Also this video doesn’t seem to be attempting to inform the public on the nature of schizophrenia, just kind of act as a nod to those who know about the discorder at least vaguely? Not only that any of the things taken at face value from this video would exasperate the paranoia symptoms that such people would have if actually implemented no? It would seem kind of weird to take this all at face value wouldn’t it? Or am I crazy to think that? If I ever do work in this kind of stuff I would like to know what would be an appropriate way to show case this disorder. If this is truly inappropriate I would appreciate it if you could let me know in fair detail on how to present this. It is a fascinating disorder and I would love to be able to do the topic justice if I ever have the need to. Once again thank you in advance!

@@JasonP6339 If "everyone knows is a complete joke and parody" is enough to stop mental illness, it wouldn't be much of a illness would it?
I find it very wholesome that these measures are considered to help the schizophrenic people, I use to follow them around their routine and then pretend I'm not when they look at me to make sure they are fine but also to give them space to be themselves. It's very important that they feel a constant hidden presence around them so they know they are not alone.
Sounds like something an imaginary psychologist would say.

You're doing it right brother! I say it all the time too. We live in hard times.
Humor is the best medicine
@Alpha I'm epileptic and some of the meds I take also work as bipolar medications. Without them I'd be kaput. Not all meds are bad, it just depends on the severity of the situation. Believe me, I've tried every natural remedy out there and worked with everyone from certified nutritionists to naturopaths and nothing comes close to being as effective as pharmaceutical drugs. I supplement with a healthy keto diet that's proven to help epileptics, but believe me when I say my meds are a GOOD thing. In general, though, America is overmedicated, I agree.
@Alpha Oh, gotcha. Nice troll haha.
The woman getting interrupted at 21 seconds. The satire is so well done it is almost brutal.
As somebody who went through pretty much all of the delusions listed in this video, this is one of the best/most accurate things I've ever seen
Bigtoe the only real part is the doctors injecting recorders on patients and updating the system through medicine, trust me I’m a doctor 🥼 just to study them and then give the information to the government so they can find out how to control them and use them in favor of society, nothing dark, just good intentions!
i dont call persecution dellusions
The thing about these kinds of a delusions is that even if the rational part of you recognizes that it might be a little ridiculous for some reason the "feeling" doesn't go away, and the thoughts persist.
@@bryanmejia3498 You're 100% right, some of my delusions were literally impossible but still to this day there's a small part of me that thinks they're real. It really throws your sense of intuition and instinct off
@Green Giant Try anti-psychotic meds
See, this is why I'm for insurance reform. My paranoid grandfather's Medicaid only covers subliminal messages in TV static and infomercials, and all I can do is to go to his house in the dead of the night and scrape my nails against the windows or slam the lights on and off via the outdoor electrical box to show him that he is not alone, and that he has a grandson that loves and cares about him.
@Bangbabangbabangbang Agree, taking away old items and putting new ones similar to the original makes them realize that you both care enought to get new thing and recognize his likeness of the already present design.
This is underrated. From a psychosis guy :)
This made me laugh so hard I cried.
Underrated comment
This is one of the funniest things I've ever read in my life.
We should organize supportive "gang helping" communities over the internet to carefully plan who schizophrenics get to interact with during the day. When the schizophrenic is present, we can use special hand signals and secret words to coordinate each other, as to not distract the schizophrenic from his activities.
This comment is evil 🤣
We should also alternate between signal colors using our clandestine civilian outfits.
Dude if one of those gangstalk nut jobs read this, they'd have a straight up aneurysm and start foaming at the mouth
This just sounds like the internet already

@@staringatchairs7844 it isn't making fun of schizophrenics, it's mocking people who don't have schizophrenia but believe the government is constantly tracking and surveilling them. The humor is that they list out these things commonly said by your average libertarian Facebook user and compare it to a disease as serious as schizophrenia. The onion doesn't just pick on people with mental illness
@@szewal They talked about schizophrenics and used textbook paranoid schizophrenic delusions. It's about schizophrenia. Still funny tho
@Wise Acres Not even remotely the same, you can take your edgy atheism somewhere else lmao. And people with schizophrenia can have religious delusions but that doesn't mean anybody who is religious is experiencing psychosis, it's a faith.

i have schizophrenia and this is one of the funniest things ive seen about it. i'm normally way sensitive about my illness and the "delusions" i have are no joke (i only call them delusions bc its easier) especially about surveillance. this is just so funny tho. def dont wanna watch while im unmedicated but good job
What else would you call them other than delusions?
@@rum-ham "thoughts and beliefs i have that only i experience the effects of and know are 100% true" doesn't roll off the tongue quite so easily so delusions it is
@@acenewgate4039 I see. Question: How could they be true/real if you're the only one who experiences them? I have had issues with paranoia about surveillance myself and I try to ask lots of questions to myself like this. I find that it helps me realize that's it's probably not true.
@@rum-ham the reasoning is kinda more than i wanna say on a public forum where ppl are joking about this kind of thing, but i'll say a schizophrenic's mind can take incredible twists and turns to make a "delusion" "work" if that makes any sense.

I am a paranoid schizophrenic and am greatly relieved to find out it's been a "team effort" all along. I used to worry that I had good luck or God was watching out for me or something. I guess all those daily rituals and prayers were for nothing.

Remember kids, even if a person refuses your help, you can always give them some confident reassurance that you’ll be coming back to get them (again, in reference to help). Best to show your determination by giving example scenarios that you will gladly overcome, and make sure to never break eye contact because it would be rude.
Shit had me crying 😂😂
😂
Spookily similar to Jehovah's Witnesses.
Are you referring to intense stare as another act to care for them?
ive found it really helpful to let them know I know their secrets and I've heard their thoughts, just so they feel seen and understood
The question is not: "Am I paranoid?", it's: "Am I paranoid enough?"
Yeah. The fact that the government can be so paranoid that they openly say to "prepare for the worst" but then lock people up thru the hospital system when individuals also show concern for what they can not falsify is screwed up.

Is that not the point of the video? That everything they are saying would be the exact opposite of what a paranoid schizophrenic person would want?
They don't know what else to do. It's only understandable to those afflicted. I think it's normal and everyone else has an issue.
Wdym "mild schizophrenia"? You been bipolar or Cyclothymia?
I know it's not the best look but I showed this to my schizophrenic boyfriend without context when it first came out. He responded exactly how you thought one would.

More phrases they should say in the Ear Speakers:
“We want you”. This is in reference to them being in our lives.
“We know what’s going to happen”. We know that we’re going to help them with their mental state.
“We’re here for you. Basically in your house”. Because THATS how devoted we are to helping them.
I think such a message is necessary: "We will always be here. Nothing can get rid of us."
It's important to anyone being treated for mental health that they know their caregivers are present and not going to leave or give up on them. I think that message of constancy needs to be sent to underline the fact that anywhere they go there will be someone watching for them. Regardless of where it is, whether it be their bedroom at night, the woods outside the city, or even in abandoned infrastructure they may seek shelter in.
I find it annoying that when I give a schizophrenic a friendly stare at the coffee shop while my FBI friend secretly places a GPS tracker on their car they have this look like they are uncomfortable and I'm "suspicious".
I hate when my schizophrenic next door neighbor complains about me whispering "you won't be alone much longer" through my shower wall. I do it so he knows that I'll always be there for him. Ungrateful.

People hearing in the spiritual realm aren’t crazy, people listening to the demons who claim to love them or give them power while they tell them to do harmful things, that’s another story. Scripture says Satan is the father of lies who comes to steal kill and destroy, people need to stop putting their faith in him. People coming to Christ and being delivered from the voices or even possession that was beyond their ability to control or be controlled with meds is a real thing, how you want to define how it works, it doesn’t matter how it works, it matters that true and “genuine” acceptance of what Jesus did on the cross does work. By his Isaiah 53 stripes we are healed. See the gospels, start in Matthew, Mark, or John.

I'm schizophrenic or at least, I was diagnosed and now its changed to bipolar 1 with some sort of psychotic features. Anyway, Ive been in a help group for my condition, and this skit, is so well informed, so well written, and even for its time, its amazingly insightful on just how many different delusions and things exist, this feeling of being watched by cameras, is one I have to walk people through once in a while for people, that come on, and desperately feel this and need some sort of voice to tell them that they can relax, and be at peace with themselves in public, in my discussions with people a fair few of these very specific delusions come up.

As a health care professional I can tell you this is spot on!
Now they just need to make the patients future visible through normal tv broadcasts 🎉 fuuuu😂😂
The Devil is a liar. What they go into are visions, but what they “hear” about what they see probably isn’t their future. The Devil is confusing and tormenting them. Sometimes with what they see or hear, but more often with how others misguide and treat them. It’s a spiritual issue and an issue of trying to reason through it without scriptures to direct and fight it. Even Jesus had the Devil show him stuff, but he fought it with the truth. Read the gospels with that perspective. That is if you truly care about your patience. I see people get set free. Do you? I’m not being snarky, are you seeing the same results that Deliverance ministers and Biblical counselors see where people go from homeless and out of their mind to productive leaders in society having better than any vision of the future they ever imagined? Like the man in Mark five who knew to run to Jesus after being a cutter he was later found clothed and within his right mind no longer needed if to be chained. It doesn’t matter what position you hold working with those who are deemed mentally ill, shift your own mind and how you see them, see them as God sees them and learn how to talk to and pray for them. They are actually seeing stuff they just don’t know why or where it’s coming from, and they don’t know how to get it to stop, some of these people opened the doorway to that stuff through New Age meditation, messing with the occult, or most common they literally invite in a demon through prayer trying to run away from a trauma and not realizing it’s not God they are calling on as they make deals that have to be broken. I’m not saying that chemical imbalances do not exist, sometimes the problem is drugs, physical, or nutritional issues instead or in addition, but to be “crazy” is to know the truth and reject it that thinking other less spiritual options could work out just as well, that’s crazy. Sadly, medicated people too horrible crimes, I’m not even sure if we can say it’s a band-Aid as they “act normal” (emotionless) but the core issues remain. People need the truth of the Lord and to humbly submit to him as being their custom solutions and the only way.
One of the best things our governments have done for these people is letting the homeless shelter in the walls of their homes, allowing them to never feel lonely at any given time, while not interfering with their day-to-day lives and at the same time giving the homeless a place to stay

As someone who has gone through psychosis and now works with psychosis patients, this is hilarious. Just glad I didn’t see it when I was going through it 😂
this is two minutes of pure gold
I am a medical student finishing up a 3 month rotation in a Psych ward. I laughed so hard bc these are exactly the symptoms and things schizo-paranoid patients talk about!
I guess some may be telling the truth
That's the joke
@@derbenutzer5958that the statue loving them
I met a guy in the psych ward who thought President Obama was monitoring him through the cameras in the unit, and sending magazine advertisements to the hospital to communicate his future blessings. He thought Obama was going to get him a new car. He let me read some of the letters that he was writing and holding up to the camera. It was like a letter to Santa. In his eyes, the world was conspiring in his favor. He seemed happy.
@@Erin____ I'm happy for him in his contentment. I wish contentment for everyone.
As a schizophrenic, this is absolutely hilarious lol and the symptoms and conditions are actually completely accurate which makes this even funnier. i love this
No you're not.

Does the statue still love you?
Wow, this is great; my stunt of living in the sewers of a psychiatric ward for the last couple of years is finally getting recognition from the government! I'm so glad I'm not alone in doing this. Every 67 hours I restart a cycle of whispering "I am watching you" seven times every 8 hours through a megaphone so that the entire psychiatric ward rumbles. I think the whispering helps so they know I don't share their caregiver information. I hope they feel better, knowing that if they stumble, I will be there to pick them up.
Me and that statue: it's complicated
As a schizophrenic person ( literally ) I believe this will absolutely help! Thank you so much for your care 😊💕

Eye contact is also a way of letting people know you care about them. If everyone in the community could organize to stare at them whenever they are around, it would let them know they are supported. But, prolonged eye contact can be a little intimidating, so its important to break the eye contact as soon as they look back. This way we can ensure the greatest level of comfort.
That will just cause severe social anxiety😅

Made me lol on that one 😂😂
Underrated comment; here's a "like." ❤
My friend is schizophrenic and I love to help her out. Whenever she feels paranoid or delusional I make sure to scream loudly (I hide in her fiberglass) so she knows she isn't alone. Another accommodation I like to make is to act insane, so when she tells someone what she saw no one believes her. That way, she always has something to think about instead of being paranoid. You guys are doing god's work.
Which statues don't love them anymore LMAO
Actually a thing, btw
I personally do not feel spied on enough.
Go to Clearwater Florida where the Scientology headquarters are. You can take pictures of them and you'll be set for the whole trip.
Sounds like a human zoo lol😂@@TheLoneMitten
I’m friends with a few schizophrenic people. And honestly it’s exhausting hanging out with them. I was on a big kick of “don’t let them tell you you’re sick” but it’s a definite illness, and I feel sorry for the constant mental torture, confusion, and oppression many of these people live with
“don’t let them tell you you’re sick” might not be the answer but i feel like you got the spirit right as in "don't let an illness stop you from being a whole person"
@@MFonEarthmy friends did the same the losers. And i had no “episode” i dont have mental illness either. I was part of the occult for a time and it really messed me up, my faith in Christ saved me.
Unfortunately our society is too stupid to understand spiritual problems like that, opting to reduce it to mental illness at times.
@@jakeschwartz2514 amen I feel you, so thankful we have Jesus and the occult is not the answer
What's so bad about being sick tho? Like it helps you to get recognized and be able to live to the best of your abilities managing your symptoms. That's it, you're still human, still the same person. You are sick but that is fine why is there such shame in this? the shame you create yourself, don't let it get you down, you have to accept it, not deny it.
@@jakeschwartz2514 oh this is rich, sure its just a mindset religion issue, even though there are plenty of people religious andd non religious who have schizophrenia so thath makes no sense. And also do you have the slightest idea of how medical science works? do you have a bachelor of science? bc more than 100 years of medical acedemical science would not agree with you. I'm happy it worked for you, but saying society is stupid for correctly recognizing "unwantend mental abnormalities which negatively affects someone's ability to live" is something whe might help with. But I bet you never read a single research paper rct, or systematic review. Do you have abachelor in science? medical ofcourse, if not, please go away and spread your misinformation somewhere else, you are actively hurting people with real mental problems who want help, what you think we laugh at you at the clinics and wards? we all put our passion into our work and it shows so its frustrating to see someone, most likely unedicated in this topic, proclaim its all society based. Like how about you back that up with some facts hm? science sure can, but I doubt you can, also the occult doesnt make you crazy, its literally just make believe, something children would believe, please gr ow up
Installing multiple voice devices in their ears to hear different voices just so that they know it's a team effort is a brilliant idea. Till now I had to speak in different voices myself to help my schizophrenic ex partner but now I know he is in safe hands.
If he is your ex, why are you still with him?
Did he ask you to break things off?
I think it's wonderful that there's a global effort to make sure that paranoid schizophrenics are never truly alone, that there's always someone there, watching them. To make sure they're safe.
Excellent coverage of this important issue, and some fantastic ideas! I think it’s vitally important that paranoid schizophrenics know that EVERYONE is behind them. Right behind them. Everywhere. All the time. Around every corner. Making sure they know they’re never alone.
Damn🤣
i knew it.
this is by far my favorite thing the onion has ever done it kills me everytime and gives out a lot of really useful information i’ve started following my local paranoid schizophrenic and whispering i’m gonna get you (in reference to help of course) whenever i get the chance such as the grocery store or restaurants to remind them that they have someone watching over them and they’re never alone
I really like this skit, but my Husband's favorite Onion is this one, I concur ua-cam.com/video/qvCGqhShNnk/v-deo.htmlfeature=shared whew what a tool 🕊
I was just looking to get some volunteer work at the elderly care home but they made me take over 1,000 skin grafts and total facial reconstruction surgery to resemble a war vet’s dead son.
Overall, I’d rate the working conditions an 8.5/10
I, frankly, appreciate the recent grassroots movement taken in my community, to collectively shine lasers into Schizophrenics homes, hovels, and shantys. Using encoded patterns to send signals is a fantastic stimulus for data collection.
"I read in a medical journal recently that a number of doctors have put microscopic tracking devices under the skin of schizophrenics which is a great way to make sure they don't get lost."
pure genius
They forgot to recruit FBI agents who will pretend to be their significant others (spouse, child, parents) who will monitor them and report to government agencies (to help with their mental health, ofc). And what about medicated food?
--They didn't forget, it's just a secret--
i can't believe they forgot!
As a schizophrenic, I find this very amusing. 🤣🤣🤣
😂 I hope your doing well buddy
“Everyone’s out to get you. In reference to... help.”
The Onion would be great for GTA radio.
"WE ARE GOING TO GET YOU.... help so don't worry bro"
This is so relevant to how some medical professionals make mental illness worse while “helping”a patient. A few ways are: providing solutions for patients that are general due to seeing them as inhuman or under funding, anti psychotics lacking proper testing or even a proper nutritional supplement for how they affect the body of someone already under stress, isolation from society or only exposure to others in a crisis taking someone further from normalcy, ignoring aspects of biology like physical fitness as part of maintaining homeostasis (by locking someone up during a crisis).
“Care givers faces reconstructed to look like the paranoid schizophrenics dead relatives”.....best line ever...
Completely acceptable procedure
The most psychotic and delusional thing about this video is that everyone in this room are agreeing and yes-anding each other on everything instead of getting into heated arguments about every tiny nitpick.
Ahead of there time this was the og “im in your walls”
Everyone around you wants to get you..... in, in reference to help. Hahahahahaha holy fuck hahaha
That's when I burst out laughing, something I almost never do when alone. These pundit parodies are gold.
Been on antipsychotics since 2014 but only diagnosed as a paranoid schizophrenic in 2019.I was admitted to a secure psychiatric ward twice that year. Won't go into the details of my delusions because I don't like talking about it, but I would have killed someone if I hadn't been hospitalised. The misconception of a schizophrenic having a dozen independent personalities within them is absolute bollocks. People need to be educated on these matters, not to make them aware so they don't offend schizophrenics, but to make them aware so they can spot possible symptoms in other people (They won't be able to spot their own symptoms if they have schizophrenia, not until they've been medicated and stabilised, and even then it's not guaranteed. I acknowledge my illness, but still can't ignore how some of my delusions still seem real, to this day) If a person knows what to look out for they can help save a person's suffering by getting medical intervention, be it voluntary (rarely) or forced (almost always), and prevent that person harming themselves, or others. Wouldn't wish this illness on my worst enemy, it's cruel in too many ways
My former roommate DEFINITELY has schizophrenia. Homie called the police on me cuz he believed I put spy cameras in his room. He also believed I had built a secret passageway in the house. Creepy dude. He would even talk outside my door and apparently had LOTS of conversations with me while I was not there. And he tried to break into my room. I hope he gets help but also he traumatized me. I just wanna say too that both the police and the Mental Crisis team failed. I had to call the police 3x on this man and when the crisis ppl came he just lied to all their questions and they said he was fine. And this same person would vehemently tell me how he didn’t need therapy. I still have nightmares about him.
The thing is, people often confuse schizophrenia for DID when in reality they're pretty different.
Check out the work of Jerry Marzinsky - will save your life
It’s not that deep
I love that people are still watching these videos, commenting and interacting with one another 15 years after the fact.
the amount of paranoid schizophrenics in this comment section is concerning
What an amazing piece of satire. Well done.
Where did THIS ONION go? It WAS once funny!
They sold themselves in 2015
Clearly, this stuff wasn't as successful.
Now we find out they predicted the future, back then. They things they say in this video were either declassified or brought into public knowledge through "new research" (code term for "secret services had this for a few years, and then someone else (re)discovered how it's done and allowed it to become public knowledge").
Gotta love these old Onion sketches. Far funnier and edgier than the ones produced today.
Thank you, Onion, this made my day 😂
Wait, there are statues out there that might NOT love me? I'll make them love me!
Never give up!
@Yobama Never run around and desert you!
