    This is an old comment about this man that seems to have been lost: This man was my uncle. I'm not going to give any names, but for those of you who are concerned with how things turned out for him, not well. There's so much to address here. First let me say that he was being treated in this video with meds. Without the medication his mood ranged from complete delusion to catatonic. As for being gay, I don't think he had much of a sex drive at all. With or without meds. As for the idea that he was put here because he was gay by some unloving family, that's ridiculous. I don't have time to say all the things my family tried just to make his existence somewhat peaceful just for his own sake. My family had a couple of openly homosexual and lesbians in it even back in the sixties and with the exception of my mother's father no one gave a shit. My uncle suffered with meds and even more without. After forty some odd years, most of which he spent in institutions, he took his own life by way of drug overdose. By the way, the comment about the plot twist, he never had a piano was funny because he didn't. His seeming obsession with piano came and went as did obsessions with religion, especially the Catholic Church and government. As far as I know he couldn't play a lick. He was very ill at his best and a living shell at his worst. I hope that answers some questions because that's all I have to say on the matter. He's been gone since the late eighties and I really hope that other members of my family don't see this video, mostly because of the comments from people that somehow think they understand him better than the people who suffered with him. One last thing, I think people thought that he was talking about sitting or standing effeminately or something. No, he was talking about sitting or standing motionless for hours. Usually not even his facial expression would change but when it did it was usually related to something in his mind only. I really can't begin to tell you all how heartbreaking the whole thing was. He did seem intelligent and with meds he did remind me of a high functioning guy with autism I once met.

      More like he has experienced an overload of pain and is careful in his wording so that he can avoid further pain likely through some form of punishment (I think at this point it would have been very likely that he experienced this). I am guessing he was given medication etc if he acted up. I would say he is detached and in a way does not care, but would prefer not to experience more pain. The impression I have is that his existence is barely tolerable. Perhaps he is catatonic because it was already unbearable and a part of his consciousness shut down as a result (seems like he is experiencing anhedonia).

      What is known so far today is that a lot of people suffering from psychosis which are not drug induced do have a brain damage caused by toxic oxidation of the brain due through their own body chemistry. The strange eyemovement is a symptom of the damaged brain and it can also be very rapid. Most psychotic patients are also reporting really bad headache. Our healthsystem and society should start to threat those people as what they are: Patients with a brain problem... We are not living in the 19th or early 20th century anymore and it is really disgusting that society is so little informed.

Antidepressants at 18-29. 31 now. I took way to much, but took about 20g of Gold caps (Psilocybin containing mushroom) I analyzed my entire life. The emotions that came out helped me understand behavior etc more. Wont ever need to do it again because I'm happy and contempt forever, but I wish more people did this to alter their perception of reality. Would help with healing much trauma

    Watching this is so incredibly difficult. His internal preoccupation is palpable, and I can only imagine how difficult it must have been for him to focus on and answer the questions. From the beginning, I felt he spoke his truth, that he was there because he was "not like other people." I have worked in the field of mental health for over 20 years, especially with people with schizophrenia. And he is not wrong. Obviously, schizophrenia is a complex illness with both genetic and environmental risk factors. But, from a social perspective, one of the main experiences people with schizophrenia suffer from is that of not feeling quite like everyone else. And in many cases, the way they are treated by society and institutions, often as a nuisance or a menace, contributes to the sense of alienation. The loneliness of the illness is often what ends up killing them, and many people end up taking their own lives, either passively or actively. Also, I don't know if the interviewer is a psychiatrist or a psychologist, but his line of questioning is such bullshit, and he treated the guy with cold indifference, hostility, and suspicion. The interviewer knew exactly why the patient was there, but instead of trying to learn about his experience or provide him with comfort, he wasted his time by grilling the poor guy and condescending to him. UNACCEPTABLE!
    My heart is heavy with the grief for these people's experiences and with their families as well.

    I find this line from the patient very heartbreaking in particular, because it goes to show how he was considerably aware regarding the world around him... Medicine and psychiatric science has come a very long way undoubtedly, although, I can't help but to feel we're all just as ignorant regarding schizophrenia as we were 50+ years ago. so subjective from patient to patient, and such a very complex disorder without a doubt.

Most people will never understand schizophrenia just like most people don't have much compassion for those afflicted by it.

      If you have an anxiety problem then you can get traumatized very easily. If your amygdala is malfunctioning, or overreactive, you're going to be very anxious and insecure. You'll have a very difficult time relating to other people because you're so confused on how to do it. Do they hate me for who I am? Did I do something wrong? You're overwhelmed by paranoia and distrust, constantly fighting ghosts in your mind, and also resenting the fact that you have to deal with others in your life. In addition to that, you can get delusional and think you're more than you are while at the same time thinking others have prevented you from doing your best. It's you against the world and the world against you. You've developed the biggest ego but have the smallest self-esteem. Going from one extreme to the other is what drives you crazy and paralyzes your life. There are so many issues going on you don't know what the fuck to do. Sadly, I'm talking from experience.

      ​@@lenkahomolova3715 hi there, i am a psychiatrist who works exclusively with severe schizophrenia (clozapine and beyond) for the last 5 years. Although youre right in saying that we should not reinforce delusional beliefs, we can and should validade and help them naming their feelings, even though they are a byproduct of psychosis. We even can say some remarks like "you may be very afraid of telling me things and i do bad things to you" as the patient appears sometimes in this interview.
      These US vintage therapists are stone cold and very technical, nowadays we know that setting the affective tone by making our own emotions very clear and expressive may be very therapeutical to them. This absolute neutrality (heritage from early psychoanalysis influence) can make the patient more anxious as they have impairments in social communication skill and "reading" the interviewer feelings ans intentions.

      He's actually probably struggling to answer coherently. One of schizophrenia's features is a disorganized type of speech, so often times they simply say random things ('word salad') or repeat what they hear (echolalia). Notice how he latches on to certain words the interviewer asks him, saying them multiple times throughout his answers- he's latching on to what pieces of reality he can. It's a sad condition, given the oft-misunderstood (and even scary!) appearance it creates, without any choice on the part of the patient.

I dont want to seem weird or like a lunatic and it often makes me very lonely and depressed. The signs began when i was 14 and just got worse throughout the years, now im getting help. The inteviewer here is so far out. What some might not understand is that this young gentleman, say what he is able to he is describing what he is able to, in that situation. He is a very intelligent young man and should be talked to differently, he is a human being and he want to be treated so. He needs help to find the tools that fit him and to be put in a mental hospital, can eventually make things worse if it dosent suit hes comfort and how he will acually benefit from the help. I hope this gentleman worked out hes dream with the piano and i hope he found peace.

  • @RockSprites

    This is a comment I found from someone claiming to be his nephew or niece: "This man was my uncle. I'm not going to give any names, but for those of you who are concerned with how things turned out for him, not well. There's so much to address here. First let me say that he was being treated in this video with meds. Without the medication his mood ranged from complete delusion to catatonic. As for being gay, I don't think he had much of a sex drive at all. With or without meds. As for the idea that he was put here because he was gay by some unloving family, that's ridiculous. I don't have time to say all the things my family tried just to make his existence somewhat peaceful just for his own sake. My family had a couple of openly homosexual and lesbians in it even back in the sixties and with the exception of my mother's father no one gave a shit. My uncle suffered with meds and even more without. After forty some odd years, most of which he spent in institutions, he took his own life by way of drug overdose. By the way, the comment about the plot twist, he never had a piano was funny because he didn't. His seeming obsession with piano came and went as did obsessions with religion, especially the Catholic Church and government. As far as I know he couldn't play a lick. He was very ill at his best and a living shell at his worst. I hope that answers some questions because that's all I have to say on the matter. He's been gone since the late eighties and I really hope that other members of my family don't see this video, mostly because of the comments from people that somehow think they understand him better than the people who suffered with him. One last thing, I think people thought that he was talking about sitting or standing effeminately or something. No, he was talking about sitting or standing motionless for hours. Usually not even his facial expression would change but when it did it was usually related to something in his mind only. I really can't begin to tell you all how heartbreaking the whole thing was. He did seem intelligent and with meds he did remind me of a high functioning guy with autism I once met."

      In my personal experience, those with mental illnesses are some of the most considerate and caring people I've ever met. (I have a few mental illnesses myself and I'd never say I'm the most considerate person, but hopefully you understand my point...) Personally, I believe people are diagnosed with 'mental illnesses' based on the fact that they don't assimilate/'fit in' with modern society. However, modern society teaches to focus on 'yourself' and 'putting/loving yourself' first. In my opinion, putting others first is the only way to true happiness, so it's no wonder why so many people are considered "mentally ill".

That truly sounds horrible and I hope that with the increase in mental health support these days that life can become less of a prison sentence for you somehow, stay safe and strong. No matter how bad it may feel remember you're insanely strong for sticking up with everything you're going through, majority of people out there would never be able to continue fighting and living everyday like you. Lots of respect mate.

      it's called masking and it's learned through abuse and the manipulation of those who claim to care for you. ABA is a technique used for autistic kids and the basis for it is to teach kids how to mask and fit in with others. It does tremendous harm to the mind of an autistic person. I would imagine that something similar has happened to him and he has learned to internalize most of what he is going through in order to not get more abuse. It's incredibly sad to say the least.
