I want to offer this as encouragement, so I hope that it lands as encouragement. I live with CPTSD and am hyper vigilant, never really feel safe, always need a plan and always need to know how to get away quickly from or hide wherever I am. I have worked many, many years in therapy learning about myself, my reality, my past, my symptoms and learning methods to manage myself. CPTSD is a permanent part of my life and I will always need to manage my symptoms. Something that has helped me is thinking about mental illness in the same way I think about physical illness. For example, if someone has diabetes, they will always need to be aware of their illness, manage their symptoms, be aware of anything that will impact their diabetes and pay close attention to their body. No one thinks twice about someone with diabetes who is daily managing their illness. Why is a mental illness any different? I decided to love, value and respect myself with CPTSD and embrace that daily care for CPTSD is a part of my routine life. I began to feel less "broken" or "undesirable" because of CPTSD. This has been a very slow and not steady process, but it has been worth the effort. I can have peace and joy while living with a mental illness.

[@Kimberly_Viktoria]

@@hollywebster6844 what a comment! Thank you Holly! 🥹💚 and I also believe in treating mental illness like physical illness, being kind and aware 💚

[@madiArabella]

That’s exactly how my therapist explained it to me when I was 12 years old I was so ashamed to take adhd meds and people see me take them at lunch at school and she explained exactly like you did with diabetes and it changed the whole way I view mental health I am now 25, with a son with autism and I advocate for autism here in my city. ❤ being aware is key once we become aware we can do what we need to do to be kind to ourselves and take care of ourselves ❤

I was at a dermatologist office and I thought the lady across the waiting room was laughing at me, but when I told my husband about her. He said there was no lady across the room period. Okay mania is upon me, but as usual I don't accept its mania. Two weeks later I'm at my GPs office for a wellness check, and when I was done I exited out to the waiting room to leave, and again heard a lady say here she comes and started laughing. I looked up and there was nobody laughing and there was nobody who looked like the woman at dermatologist office. We went to my psychiatrist office and he increased my dosage of lithium. Thank God it worked. Your never alone Kimberly, because your KZbin Fam is always here to listen. Love and Peace to you💕✌️🌹

Short note about olfactory hallucinations: I have them from vestibular migraine. When it first started happening, I really thought I was breaking with reality. When I finally had a reason for smelling things that aren't really there, I became more comfortable with asking people if they also smell whatever it is. I only ask if it's the smell of something dangerous, like burning electrical wires or gas. Olfactory hallucinations are really terrible. I never smell anything nice! It's always something awful!

I appreciate your channel a lot. My husband developed paranoid schizophrenia at age 25 tho I now realize he was beginning at about 18. His mother was schizophrenic as well. When I had my son I educated myself about the disease and knew to look for the signs when he became 18. I knew there was a genetic predisposition doing my research. My son avoided schizophrenia. So now the odds were more favorable that his children may never have it. But that isn’t the case. My granddaughter has paranoid schiz. Too. I think her symptoms started at about 16 but we had no idea. Now she’s in full psychosis most of the time because she self medicates with street drugs. Any medicine (to quiet her mind ) for the psychosis won’t work if she’s using drugs. So I’m watching my granddaughter fall deeper and deeper, cannot work or have meaning ful relationships with anyone. It saddens me terribly. She’s losing her life as we all live it because she’s so sick. I do text her and tell her how much I love her. I’m praying for a miracle. She doesn’t go out cause she thinks everyone is watching her. Your video today is helping me a lot in regards to her. When her grsndfather was so ill the meds didn’t really help but we’ve come a long way in science. You are functioning well because of the great medicines now available. Someday I hope she can resemble you. College, friends and a relatively normal life. So thank you so much sharing about what goes on. ❤ I want the best life can offer you. I respect you so much. I do not agree with Swedens approach at all. I’m glad your therapist may be able to get you some funding. Btw a lot of artist’s never completed a formal degree yet have successfully done well with their art financially. There is a possibility for you too! 🌈

So I'm in the US in Massachusetts and was on MassHealth from the age of 52. This had something to so with disability SSI. Then I got retirement Social Security at 62-1/2 and the MassHealth insurance got shut off so I only get federal Medicare. You have to pick which Medicare plan you want. How to decide? If you decide wrong then you might wind up with a lot of med bills because the plan you picked doesn't cover the illness you got after deciding. I wound up with a heart issue and have some bills but at least the operation was mostly covered. But when you get old and can't work anymore you just don't need the extra bills, and I incurred a few. We'll survive, but yet again we aren't going on a vacation. Anyway if I were you I'd advocate for myself and try to get your nurses and doctors to agree to report that you just don't need to try to work right now so you can keep your benefits and keep your stress level down as low as possible. If you are sick enough I would think they would go along with it as it would make sense and plus I understand that Sweden, Norway, Finland et al are pretty progressive as far as social services and education are concerned? I think I went to school with a girl from Sweden and she wound up being our class valedictorian. You guys have a great ed. system afaik. Yep I had independence/money stress 15 yrs ago and got delusions from it. Had microphones in my walls. Felt as real as I'm sitting here. I'm lucky I survived but it was iffy there for a bit. Anyway keep your fans (us) up to date on how you are faring. I hate to see young people saddled with illness but I'm afraid it's just part of living. "Life entails suffering," as the Buddha said. You're not the only one; my wife's family is loaded with schizophrenia. Nice people and they have their share of millionaires too, so it doesn't necessarily have to hold you down flat. Anything can happen. Let's hope you get lucky! It def. does make life harder though. It sucks and I wish you didn't have it.

Kimberly I just thought of something. You might want to try talking to your teacher and telling him what happened with your test trouble. I have heard of someone who couldn't finish a course and had to be accommodated due to her ADHD. She was part of the way through and had to stop due to getting so overwhelmed, and her instructor let her carry the grades forward to the next time he was giving the class, he was just going to let her keep the grades she already had and finish the course at the later time. Where I went to night school they did the same courses once a year, so you might have to wait until 2025 to complete yours for all I know. AFAIK she didn't even have to pay for it again. He just put her final grade in once she was done. They are doing accommodations for ADHD now in some schools and I don't see why they shouldn't also make accommodations for schizophrenia. It's about time and people shouldn't be held back just because they aren't perfectly healthy. A young lady I knew wanted to get into pre-med and needed calculus but didn't have the confidence to take it, so she audited the course for a lower fee to get her feet wet. Lots of people take calculus 2 times because it's so hard. I think to audit at the time was $200, this is how long ago it was (30 yrs maybe). Then it turned out she was acing it and the dean invited her to take it for credit instead of waiting for the next year. So she updated from audit to credit and got the A she needed. You need an A in calculus for pre-med. So anyway for all I know educators are getting hip to the conditions that slow people up and maybe you can get lucky. I hope you keep making videos. Shoot for the moon and don't make any small plans. I know you are very bright and believe you should be allowed to go at your own pace. It took me 17 years to get a bachelor's degree part time, so I feel your pain lol. I had no idea I had ADHD and it really screwed me up. Hold on to your dreams and DON'T MAKE ANY SMALL PLANS. Don't overdo it and make yourself sick either of course. :) -Gardner

I think it's a bit of rant

[@Kimberly10477]

Hi Kimberly, I also have experienced thought broadcasting. When those fears of other people hearing my thoughts comes to mind I try to combat it with a funny thought, so that if they can hear me maybe I can make them laugh, or nice thoughts, like compliments or kind words. Also even if they could hear my thoughts that would mean that they could hear everyone's thoughts as well. And that would be overwhelming. I don't know if you have seen the Buffy episode when she is able to hear everyone's thoughts and at first she thought is was fun and cool, but then she was drowning in other peoples thoughts, and it was terrible. So yeah, I think of something funny or of compliments. Being fearful of those things doesn't help you or anyone. And I know in the Bible it says many times over, Do not be afraid. I also remember a part in the original movie Dune, where Bene Gesserit says that "Fear is the Mind Killer!" Being fearful cuts your thoughts and body down and can make you physically sick. But having no fear and believing that no one will hurt you will open your mind to thoughts and creativity and freedom! ❤🫂☺
