    I can say so much about this horrible disease. I was hospitalized at 17. Went as far as grad school, then relapsed at 26. Still got my degree, but guys this thing is relentless. I’m 41 now. We look the same on the outside but a universe of changes throughout our lives. Some of us commit suicide. Some are in psych wards our whole lives. The meds are brutal. I almost died because my white blood cell count was so low. And I couldn’t tell anyone but close family. Stigma. WE ARE HUMAN. I’m proud of myself for living independent and in a career supporting myself. Love is harder but still possible. To all those facing this monster: I see you, God sees you, and we are slowly getting to a place where the stigma isn’t so harsh and unyielding. We’re not there yet but there is hope.

    My brother suffers from schizophrenia. It was so overwhelming. He is native and Jan 6 triggered something in his head. He was freaked out and stressed about the genocide our ancestors experienced happening to us. I believe there is definitely a generational component to it via epigenetics. Our grandmother went to residential schools that traumatized her and I firmly believe that history is passed down to protect my brother. Sometimes we think mental illness is always a bad thing when sometimes in order to survive you HAVE to detach from reality.

    i’ve been dealing with psychosis, schizophrenia by myself, spent a lot of time in my head trying to figure out what was happening to me, everything i would say made sense to me but everyone around me always had this face of concern. Spirituality plays a big role in my mental illness, i remind myself i am not my thoughts, i am who i am in my heart space, and just focus on the things i love to get by. my memory is awful, and i’d say that’s the saddest part to it, that’s the one thing we all have as humans to cherish when time goes on, my relationships suffer alot bc i can’t remember much and it makes people irritated and they think i don’t care to connect and get to know them. It’s a lonely time but it’s helped me grow a lot as a person. it’s made me more thoughtful about what others struggle with in silence,

      Hello I am Callie Quinn! I was healed by Jesus from schizophrenia, He cured me! First I was born again, then I had the elders lay hands on me, and then I received deliverance, and I was healed! You must believe in Jesus, He can cure you and heal you. I didn't think that my schizophrenia was possible to be cured, but He did it! He is wonderful and will help you always and forever. He can save you. I hope to share my testimony to encourage faith and salvation in Him. Please if you are even a little interested in God, then please look into Him! He is great and has also saved me from suicide many times!

I once heard a metaphor of prayer being a phone-line, just make sure that there isn't a Man in the Middle attack. In other words, listen to your pastors but verify from a fearfully translated Bible first.

      Please read my comment to Rosa Gonzalez above. You may have Toxoplasmosis gondii, especially if you were ever around a sick cat. There are many known physical and energetic causes and cures for schizophrenia. In my opinion homeopathy works the best but "orthomolecular" treatment also restores people's mental health. Good luck to you. - Linda, author of "Goodbye, Quacks - Hello, Homeopathy!"

      i don't have any hallucinations any more. I had a very rare kind of illness it was tactile hallucinations and I hallucinated and had slight catatonia, I was in the hospital many times, and was encouraged to take medicine, but Jesus healed me with absolutely no medicine. You have hope of a cure with Jesus. Medicine most likely wont cure it, but Jesus can cure it, as He cured it with me. PLease have faith in jesus

      David, please see the comments I've written above. It's too much to re-write all of them. I'm confident you can cure this disease. Just always remember: conventional psych drugs are not designed to cure anyone, just kind-of suppress symptoms, ensuring that the patient keeps coming back for more treatment- until he dies. That's what brings in the most profit to those at the helm of the mental "healthcare" system, the Am Psych Assn and their business buddies, the drug companies. I have found conventional psychiatry to be a complete and total fraud and there are many who agree with me. Good luck, Linda

    Not only can better decision making reduce symptoms, they can completely get rid of them. How we respond to stimuli brought on by psychotic symptoms affect how much deeper into the pit of psychosis we sink. So to reverse our responses is like rising out of the darkness of the pit whereas we were sinking previously. A lot of schizophrenia is fear based, and assumptions helps to fuel the fears. The symptoms stimulates fears which cause irrationally behaviors as we react to what we're shown to be truth. Everything comes so fast during psychosis and then rapidly builds on what preceeds the current experience. We don't have time to process anything and we're pressured to just react. So if we learn to allow the pressures to pass, and to chose how to respond instead of reacting, then the outcome will be different. There's an order to the madness my friends. Most people don't understand this. A great misunderstanding lies where we erroneously believe the mind can't return to it's original symptom free state. It 100% can. We're looking at schizophrenia through a poor lens, and people are continuing to suffer because we remain unnecessarily slow to understand what it continues to show us daily through each symptom.

      @Kerstin Lyons Hey now.... you pretty much nailed it right on the head. That's the key. If we understood more about how our minds work at a younger age, then we could guard against schizophrenia. We can't stop what knocks at the door of our minds, but we can control what we let in. We can control the habits and patterns of thoughts that form within our minds. So before we get stuck in patterns of thoughts and behaviors that grow beyond our capacity to control, we prevent the seeds from taking root. Understanding this from childhood is the key. Moreover, this would also teach the law of success. It's the law of seeds. The natural world is the shadow of the mental world.

      According to research, deja vu happens when the two hemispheres of our brain get unsynchronized.
      So we notice something with one side of our brain and file it away as a memory. But, usually a few seconds later, we notice it again with the other side of our brain.
      It's like the time delay between an email arriving in the Inbox on our laptop, and in the Inbox on our phone (which has the same account open).
      When our brain then 'updates', it finds the earlier copy, and concludes 'this has happened twice'.
      Sometimes it allocates an estimated date for this archived event. The longer ago this date tag is, the more severe the deja vu state.
      The unsynchronized state, as with computers, is due to your brain being overloaded with stress. Too many hidden 'windows' open in the background, running semi-automatic fight/flight/freeze/fawn programmes. The more often deja vu is happening, the more severely stressed your brain/system is.
      Stop pressing keys. Have some downtime. Allow time for buffering, and for updates to install. Switch off and on again, by getting a sleep. Don't open the 'all possible metaphysical reasons why event xyz occurred twice' programme, at least until a fortnight afterwards, as that App uses loads of CPU space and slows things down further.
      Ideally work on clearing glitches that are preventing some fight/flight/freeze/fawn programmes from closing.
      I stopped deja vu completely.

      Same for me, those delusions stay with me. What has helped me so far is waking up and reading my devotional and the scripture verse for the day. When i dont do this I feel myself slipping. I have to be mindful of everything I do. I move really slow, that upsets some people. I have to be cognitive of the boundaries I have put in place. I do a feelings check, am I hungry, angry, tired, lonely. I really, for me this is a must, when I feel the weight start to settle on my chest, I have to check my dates (certain dates within a calendar year can trigger an episode for me). I've come to peace with the fact certain people I just can't be around, including family, or limit my visit and time spent. Certain music I absolutely can't listen to, It's the frequency that's been used in that particular song. Last but not least.. I religiously take me SEROQUEL.

    I was diagnosed with Schizoaffective Disorder in summer 2020. I am still struggling to come to terms with this diagnosis, even four years later. I used to believe I was relatively 'normal', (if traumatised, by various life events). However, looking back, I can see how very 'abnormal' I am, and have been. I have unusual thought strategies, and abnormal reactions to difficult situations. I feel as though abuse (in its various forms) may have had contributory factors in the development of this life changing disorder. I feel very disheartened that, in spite of numerous efforts on my part, others in the workplace find it so very challenging to accept fully somebody like me into their work community ... they are so busy jumping to unfair conclusions, and judging me based on their various prejudices.

Everyone views their life and reality based off of their life experiences. U are ok and normal for this to happen to u too because your life is just as valid as the next person's. I've been all sorts of "lost" and in psychological places I've never known before or even knew existed.......it was scary at times BUT I knew how I got there, that didn't provide a way out though.

    I was diagnosed when I was a teenager. It ruined a relationship or two... In my late 20s I was doing pretty well, But I had completely forgotten about that diagnosis. Instead I had a new diagnosis of BPD. Seemed to fit the bill in many ways. Things got weird, I lost a girlfriend, and it was devastating. It was 10 years ago and i still dream about her... I tried to move on, but i began drinking heavily. Started using drugs.. Could not quite figure it out. Lost my apt and job....
    But got unemployment. Tried to go to school, talked out of it by my father... then he more or less robbed me and disappeared.
    Anyways room with a chica, we start bickering. She gets frustrated with everything, starts drinking...
    We lose the apt. End up in the woods. But then she gets violent. Drinks half gallon of whiskey after i get home (tent).
    Eventually i cant handle the pressure and slowly start to notice inconsistenties in my field of vision she was so aggressive... she made it sound like she was out there just trying to be there for me.
    homeless for 2 and a half years. worked 80/ 90 hour weeks at times, for long lengths of time...
    So an ex gets ahold of me at some point... we talk, i apologize for how things went, tell her i have bpd and all this, she tells me point blank- "bro youre schizophrenic. don't you remember what you said about the voices?"
    Then booooooom memory recovers. Within 2 weeks i was at a shelter. Anothet month and i found a room to rent.
    For like 8 years i could not figure out what i was having trouble with. How did i do that

      Have you ever gotten drunk, smoked weed, or been under the influence of any other drugs where you had a "bad trip"? Have you ever had a nightmare where you woke up in cold sweats with your heart racing from terror? Recall the feelings of powerlessness within a nightmare, along with all the other emotions and thoughts. If you've been drunk before, recall the slurred words as you try to speak, along and the loss of control over the body, which at times, you desperately struggle to regain. Also, making poor judgment calls, experience drowsiness or high energy. If you've been high before, recall any hallucinations, paranoia, or delusional thought, believing you were something you're really not. You may have experienced "zoning" out, the uncontrollable laughter and weakness within the legs and the rest of the body.
      Schizophrenia features all of these, and then more, and at least some of them, 24/7 if not medicated. It is literally a waking nightmare. But just like you've awakened from your nightmares, return from the high of alcohol and drugs (if you've experienced either) so too can the mind of someone with schizophrenia awaken and return back to our shared reality. Your friend shouldn't give up hope. Schizophrenia steals hope because it is the light by which the individual is able to see their way beyond it. One of the most devastating blows of schizophrenia is to steal our light of hope. If the son has lost his, then it's imperative that the parent holds and carries the light up for him. Someone has to hold a vision of the desired destination. I wish them luck

      Don't sweat on it though. I technically have "schizophrenia", although I never had "hallucinations" in a purely sensory sense, it was more like "feels", my delusions were also mild. Yet here I'm 10 years later, having executive dysfunction (aka adhd like symptoms) and a pretty average career. I've learned though and become much better over the last few weeks infact, half of it is meds, half of it is eating / drinking / what you put in your body / dust / weight management / exercise amount

    A key mention here is that it often comes on in early adulthood when we are trying to figure out who we are and what we want to do in life. I am a recovered schizophrenic who was diagnosed back in 1990/1991 and haven’t been on any meds since 1992/1993. I spent 4 weeks in a psych ward, underwent ECT, and had the whole gamut of very strong intrusive negative thoughts and voices and an intense hallucination…a snake-like creature with a lion-like head came out of a portal and entered my room through a cloud. I had no knowledge of Gnosticism at the time, but they refer to this entity as Yaldabaoth among other names. I truly believe schizophrenia is a shamanic/spiritual experience in which some surpass and others do not. Today, having overcome the illness, I live a successful and fruitful life.

Sometimes its unbearable, like the world around me feels like its burning. The voices, through medication and reflecting, have piped down, however the delusions are still a major problem. Ive grown increasingly paranoid over the years often thinking that everyone is out to get me. Its hard to speak clearly aswell. My thoughts are always scattered and its hard to be productive.

    Schizophrenia (& Bipolar) run in my family. The anhedonia, brain fog, and disinhibition seem to be the main disease and the hallucinations/delusions are side effect symptoms. It's like how AIDS patients get unusual cancers and infections because the immune system is severely damaged, but curing the cancers/infections doesn't cure AIDS.
    It used to be called Juvenile Dementia in the 1800's for a reason. I have schizophrenia and I think recategorizing it as a neurological disorder is accurate and would minimize stigma. And a lot of the general public know someone with elder dementia, so it would be easier for them to extrapolate their experiences into supportive behavior. People honestly make me worse by lecturing me about motivation or giving me "tough love" instead of just organizing my kitchen or helping me write a To-Do list.
    I wear a nicotine patch every day. I can still hallucinate but it seems to rebuild the filter in my brain. I'm excited to see researchers move towards studies on the underlying cognitive issues. I only knew to go looking for studies on nicotine in neurological and psychiatric disorders because my mother is noticeably "there" during her cigarette smoke seshs.
    There's a bunch of other things I do for my schizophrenia. Witchcraft, and cbd also help, but the nicotine patch is key. Nortriptyline seemed to help a lot, but I have trouble making money in a traditional job so I don't depend on pharmaceuticals I'd need health insurance for. I make more money when I'm gig apping or not dealing with workplace politics. I like temping, and entrepreneurship, too.

      Good question, these experts don’t ever factor into their research about schizophrenia the way that prescribed medications effect the cognitive functioning of the people who are required by law in Queensland to take the medication over long periods, even for the rest of their lives. So Dr Kesby predicts that brain neuroscience will eventually lead to better outcomes for the patients, but what if the meds are the primary cause of lifelong decision making problems. what will he do about it then? Chances are - nothing because there’s no other option for treating the disease within the limited scope of psychiatry any time soon, unfortunately.
      Can we take whatever he says anything other than wishful thinking? It gives him a good income to play around with his ideas, but as the father and carer for my son diagnosed with schizophrenia thirty years ago, I’m certainly not holding out any hope, I’ve heard many claims that researchers have made over the years that amount to zero, regrettably.

That’s it, there’s no known biological cause/causes to justify this determination, but it doesn’t matter because it’s enough for them to convert symptoms themselves into a pathological diagnosis, unfortunately.
      Unless that circumstantial mechanism is overtaken by some new neurological compelling scientific reasoning somewhere in the nfuture that blows the DSM….guidelines to smithereens, the current model will prevail indefinitely.

    I don't believe in mental illness, although I have been diagnosed. I don't believe there is a good understanding of how the brain works, and therefore, doesn't work. However, I think mental illness diagnosis is a billion dollar industry where the patient stays a customer for life. Psychiatrists and the pharmaceutical industry makes money off the "sick." I believe this system should change. We shouldn't have to be a customer for life. I was diagnosed with schizophrenia and bipolar and I take medication daily...indefinitely. Meanwhile, I pay for health insurance and for doctor visits...which makes them richer while I stay sick. It's a parasitic system, where no real healing takes place. I'm not sure if this is an issue only for the U.S. population or for also those in Europe, too. I have been under a 51/50 hold as well as a 52/52 also called the Lanterman Petris Short Act in California, and I think this should be protested to be made illegal...how can someone in a mental crisis forfeit their freedom to a blood thirsty medical system that wants lifetime customers...if they diagnosis you, slap a label on you, force you to take medication and get involved in a relapse cycle of staying on medication thereafter, you're not really a free individual anymore but rather dependent on a doctor's prescription, a pharmacy, and medication.

My sibling went off meds, has had a catastrophic break and is now no longer responding to meds and is starving themself (except for feeding tube) because they believe food being offered in hospital is poisoned.

      It takes time for the antipsychotics to work, unfortunately. I had trouble reading or following conversations for a few weeks after my first episode.
      It's also VERY JARRING to reconnect with the way sane people view reality after the first time. I was super depressed and embarrassed about some of my behavior, and really hurt by the way some people handled my episode.
      It's very frustrating to feel like your relative is ignoring you, but his brain probably hasn't begun regulating itself. It's like how you put out a house fire, but it takes weeks to clean up & rebuild the house itself. Be patient ❤

He can save you. I hope to share my testimony to encourage faith and salvation in Him. Please if you are even a little interested in God, then please look into Him!

      That has been my worst fear ever and still is and I'm psychotic/ schizophrenic. You'll never convince someone with schizophrenia to implant something in their body and especially not in their brain, ever. People with schizophrenia already have a hard time talking to a psychologist or psychiatrist because "what if they use your information against you? What are their plans? Is this all part of a manipulative plan?" - and so on. I'm litteraly afraid to post this message rn bcs what if they figure out who I am by tracking my laptop or digging into my account?

      @purplesky416 ideas of reference, where all little things can relate directly to us specifically. A group is down the street as i approach. They all laugh, I'll always jump to the conclusion they were laughing at me, these thoughts can feel as if they are not mine, ask someone next time you discuss mental illness with them, how would you feel doubting your own mind ? As schizophrenics, our perceptions can lie, our senses can lie to us. With other people (wife and kids in my case, my uncle and 2 friends) they help me see what the real world is, as I like to float in between the outer world and inner world. Don't be scared to talk to people about how you feel, most people are scared of taking about it when they know we have an illness mainly because they don't have any real knowledge about schizophrenia. 90% of the general public gets thier view from movies and documentaries, we're human also, but we've got to let them in to our inner world to see how our minds work differently, then friends and family can help 😀. Hope this finds you well.
