*it is real difficult. idk what to do about the coercive nature of the hospitals (& even care sometimes).* thr is certainly a point during an episode where...you know. you would call someone, bc what else is thr to do? but the drugs. the prison vibe. the non personalized care. @ least one time wasnt like prison. thx for sharing as always. always gives me something to think about. how to maybe make it better. -JC

Your so lucky, you haven't got side effects, I was mis diagnosed with Schizophrenia in 2013, and I had to have my gallbladder removed for a concerning polyp, turns out I didn't need to, but I did it to prevent possible cancer if my polyp got bigger, I also have pre diabete's type-2 now and the last omission I was attacked by a Schizo funny named Paul, I had 2 weeks in the ward, but than it was extended to 4 weeks with a covid isolation lock down, they were lying about bringing in covid cases to the ward, one guy named Aaron fisted a whole in the wall, a lot happened

Hey, i found you're channel almost 10 years ago, You helped me cope and I'm much healthier these days with two new kids and my own house. I appreciate all you do and you deserve more thanks than you will ever get, I stumbled upon this video and I couldn't believe you're still at it. You're a real unsung hero in my book and I hope to be able to shake your hand some day.

I was hospitalized once when I was 18 cause I was severely depressed and suicidal and I was there for 10 days and was put on seroquel cause I would hear voices in my head telling me to kill myself and that I was worthless that no one loved me that I was a freak and I should just die. I didn’t feel safe at all cause I felt any chance I got I would just go and kill myself so I made the decision to hospitalize myself and my parents supported me and respected my decision. I’m a lot happier now I’m engaged to my boyfriend who is the love of my life and I’m in a better mental state 😊💜

Don’t let them fool you your not mentally I’ll you have the gift of prophecy just give your life to god, go to deliverance ministry cast out the demons in your head, fill your body with the hilt spirit from the crown of your head to the soles of your feet, then you can talk to god and be used by god everyone with that condition all have spiritual gifts. Use the gifts to serve god the devil made mental institution, medications, and serquel to suppress your ability he’s scared of you so he sends demons to tell you negative things if you where in another side of the world you would probably be a prophet don’t let the devil fool you those people aren’t crazy just being oppressed and possessed by demons. How do I know? Because I’m classified as that but I can feel the demons, smell them, and sometimes smell them and the closer I get to gos the weaker they get

Hi Jacob! I don't have psychosis but I have been in a drug psychosis for a couple of times, thankfully it went away after eating and sleeping properly. I have 3 diagnoses, major depression, social anxiety and borderline. I have been in mental hospitals voluntarily for 3 times because I was afraid that I would hurt myself. Thankfully I had ok experiences, the personnel was nice to me. I live in Finland and I have heard awful things about public mental hospitals in the US. I hope the health care system there will become better soon. Sending lots of love for you! (P.S. Just adding, mental hospitals here can be bad as well, and the staff can be abusive to the patients, I guess I've been just lucky...)

In my opinion I think they just care about the income they make from treating people in these psych wards.. don’t get me wrong there are a few decent hospital that sorta care, first ward I was in was the first time I ever taken a pill and that was risperdal, the nurse who given it to me didn’t look completely normal.. I mean her eyes were like serpent eyes or maybe I was hallucinating but I knew I was now hooked on antipsychotics due to my first psychotic break, so I totally understand. I landed in the psych about 5 times the last time wasn’t fun. Ever since I just learn to take these meds and put my faith first, I’ve been okay but not perfect. These meds don’t treat every symptom. It’s like a brain overload to be zombie like. I was 13. Anyways stay strong everyone.🙏🏽

Your videos makes me feel not alone with Schizophrenia. I went 2 times on a mental hospital and the 2nd one was interesting for me. I was with a mentally Ill roommate and she seems violent. So I've put flowers and leaves around my bed that I found outside and surrounded myself with coloring papers from the coloring books they gave us on my bed in an attempt to protect myself from her. The funny part is that my strategy worked. She didn't touch me despite her shouting random things in the room and noncompliance from nurses throughout my 7 day stay in the mental hospital.

First time I ever got ill at age 17 with psychosis I was staying abroad with another family in Germany since I was studying the language for my A level exams. It was pretty scary being in a foreign country and getting ill. They put me in a child psychiatric clinic for one night until my brother flew out to bring me back home to England. First time I had ever flown and I was psychotic. That was fun!

The units in our area are pretty good. All the ones I’ve worked on had a lot of staff that also had illnesses or close family members with it. They know when to let stuff go and just let patients do whatever if it’s not harmful which makes it chill and more fun. And then they put my crazy ass in charge and wonder how we ended up with Rambo playing in the lounge and people turning sheets into Greek tunics.

It's complicated at best for schizophrenics. My friend who has it tried but the pressure and stress caused him to breakdown severely. The pressure and stress we feel from working gets magnified about a million times for people with schizophrenia.
