    Thanks, Michelle, for an always informative and interesting video. I have other mental-health issues than schizophrenia but the overlap in certain areas means I get a lot of reassurance from your uploads.🤗💚🌱

    My girlfriend was convinced that I was the only person who could hear her talking to herself. It took months to get her to go to a hospital. She literally told me that she didn't want to go because she hated doctors, despite dating me: a doctor. I doubt that your coach could have convinced anyone to do anything regarding psychosis if he was even able to understand your symptoms. It's weird, but I blame my military training that just convinced me that if I just verbally pushed the right button then she'd snap out of it, it literally consumed me because I love her. Getting her to see a psychiatrist and get on medication really gave me an appreciation of why some people confuse multiple personality with schizophrenia.

      @SchizophrenicNYC I'm not claiming to be a specialist, I do surgical bedside wound care but something like that although it probably crushed you could have been the results of problems outside of his control, something like obsessive compulsive personality disorder or even a trait thereof could have reduced you into the pink block standing out from the red ones and in suchm.ua-cam.com/video/nudvhFaNzPE/v-deo.html reduction and misunderstanding he just hammered the block trying to get it back into lihe's he did did he instgains ead of fm.ua-cam.com/video/nudvhFaNzPE/v-deo.htmlm.ua-cam.com/video/nudvhFaNzPE/v-deo.htmlm.ua-cam.com/video/nudvhFaNzPE/v-deo.htmlinding a paint brush. It's OK to not like people at the end of the and I don't know your story or this guy. But over the last year of spending nearly everyday with someone with undiagnosed schizophrenia it's confusing. The dichotomy of speaking to someone who is super intelligent then slips into a dissociative state where they are so overwhelmed that you convince yourself that due to their behavior they don't love you despite spending everyday with you, was in fact a delusion of my own. She was never crazy but it just drove me nuts. It felt like a Venn diagram where the vast majority of our shared experience aligned but there was maybe 10% that I convinced myself that I could just non-physically push back in. It was probably adding to her discomfort although it was never my intention. Who knows, this guy probably smelled like a high school gymnasium. 🤷

    Don't know what future will be for us but I'm sure to tell that, even if I don't know you in person, you have a new friend in me.

    I grew up with a dad who started having signs of schizophrenia when he was in his early 40s , this was back in the 70s, he started talking to someone who wasn’t there, we noticed he would hit his ears, I’m thinking it was to stop the voices, he did a lot of hurtful things to himself, as a child watching your parent change was very confusing . Thanks for these videos you make, bringing awareness is so important.

    Children imagine all kinds of crazy stuff. Ones that are not schizophrenic know the things are in their own mind, and not really in front of them. So people around you probably just thought you had this really amazing imagination. I actually read a book years ago talking about how family trees with schizophrenics have had the greatest artists, writers, and such of all time.

    Thank you for all that you give shares and for this fight and for this strength for this pride beyond the shame...
    I am autistic ( daignostique at 40.year...) and I did 3 psychotic decompensations and 15 days in psychiatric hospital
    I also wonder how nobody saw or did nothing...
    I’m very touched by this video...and I love watching what you publish
    In france people are still hiding a lot.... a lot of shame...
    So I try to talk too and make people talk to find pride and understand that we have the right to exist and that we also bring a lot of things to the world and that in our frailties there is beyond suffering a lot of beauty and strength... and that we are also necessary
    So thank you...thank you for what you do...
    It also gives me a lot of courage
    Peace
    And sorry for my English....

Tracked the Facebooks down but sent something probably even worse. I don't really feel guilty, just ashamed that I sunk to their level. Maybe I'm not an awful person after all lol

    Super cool stories.

Why didn't she start talking to herself? Mental health should be a lengthy part of health education. I'm looking forward to hearing more from you

Those symptoms never fully went away I never felt like myself again. But now I'm drinking heavily and smoking weed again knowing it's causing my depersonalization... I'm getting super drunk and talking to people who are not there and don't remember why is that?? I've always said I felt schizophrenic without the hallucinations and voices but now I'm hallucinating and not remembering its scaring me bad. Plus I'm stressing bad rn cuz im going thru a bad breakup so it's all adding ... sorry I had to get that off my chest. Just feel alone and no one can really relate ...

Accept with the voices I had I talked with them in my mind not out loud so it was harder to tell I was talking to myself i was answering in my thoughts. Could you do a video on this sort of thing. I tried being an advocate talking of my illness a few years ago on facebook but it became clear nobody wanted to hear what I had to say and feels as if I'm ostracized from acceptance on my you tube channel vlogging and hauls for it.

The mask has horns everywhere with fur all around the edges. It likes to jump scare me and run off. I can also hear it calling my name. It said it so loud one day, I fell out of my chair.

    Silence all the voices for good, not just supress them. How? The LORD JESUS CHRIST, The Great Physician. If you truly desire to be healed, it is possible as all things are possible with God. 2 Timothy 1:7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. Jesus can set you free, just believe. John 8:36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
    Not trying to "God bomb" you, as you say, just trying to show you there is healing in Christ. I'm praying for you.
