Hi Jacob, as someone who battled lifelong mental illnesses, specifically anxiety, I've been profoundly touched by your video. To the grave extent of how society labels itself, those suffering from general/bodily illnesses (be it diabetes, Llyme's disease, or any form thereof) are crowned as warriors, soldiers, or musketeers of some sort. Consequently, those with psychiatric/neurodivergence (the mentally illicit, poorly-comprehended individuals) aren't viewed in light of the former group's brevity but viewed as subhuman, possessed, and -- far too often -- castaways, peasants who should be best avoided at all costs, not be mingled with, and be left to rot. This stigma, circa long before the Middle Ages and up until now, isn't a dwindling phenomenon. Unlike what most people (especially suicide prevention cults) would love you to believe, there isn't much help for mental illness out there -- nor are there any parties willing to go the full mile and actually assist as much as required. Evidently, it's better to pose as a helping hand and then leave it all to the angels. But sadly, no one's willing to be the angels and actually change finances and access to cheaper, more affordable care options, something you've been far too often the victim of. Now, how about your nobility to battle with schizophrenia? I'm afraid it won't be praised by any of your surrounding hospital staff. Instead, they view you as a party, an experiment who should be treated until they get their paycheck. I cringe when I see how often depression is almost synonymous these days with struggling mentally as if the only form -- and the only extent -- to suffering mentally is clinical depression. You see the hype all online. Google help for mental illness and several poorly-edited documentation is often visible with the focus on teenage suffering, a rough breakup, or (I chuckle), a broken arm. It becomes such a weasel word -- almost indivisible -- that no one is willing to extend their gaze to the more extreme forms of mental illness. And it's not because society doesn't envisage such conditions, but because the easy way out, and the one society advocates, is to play the devil's advocate -- posing as a false messiah for fixable conditions that require a mere word of encouragement or a pat on the back. At least you look cool and you don't need to do much, right? Granted that someone, a helping member or a well-meaning member of society, intervenes, they miscategorize mental illness as a form of depression or a known anxiety disorder. Rather, mental illness is a very opaque term and can involve not only teen depression but cases like yours involving terrible, almost uncurable conditions such as schizophrenia, extreme intrusive thoughts, and, of course, psychosomatic pain -- all leading to the sleepless nights you came to know. I don't know if such parties should be pardoned or punished, or how such corrections should inflate the understanding of society's belittling of mental suffering (or mental Marines as I call them), because even the DSM-5 isn't willing to adapt properly and extend further research into many of these fields. For those who don't suffer the credence of mental illness, I can assure you, and despite what most of society would like you to believe, we're not enjoying this right. And, perhaps most importantly, we don't act to get sympathy. To put it bluntly, we're in Pain. So many of us have dreams, but our dreams are broken by an unfixable, refractory illness. Many of us (I included) had dreams of voyaging into outer space, becoming a scientist, and drafting up experiments to conquer the universe and all that. Many of us are mums, dads, siblings, individuals who survive societal titration, harassed, and mutilated, and still get up each morning and try our best. Strange as it may be, soldiers winning wars get medals of honor, but little credit -- if only a small gesture -- is given to those of us who battle daily demons that will never recede and, still, too often, will remain with us, calling our names to the day we'll depart this life. Should someone decide to leave, they're seen as a coward or, perhaps, a lawless specter who did so out of respite to their families. Worse, and to the largest extent to what you've faced, the way psychiatry processes how mental illness is treated is demoniacal, a crude understatement that caused so many hapless people to spin further out of control and even to the extent of suicide. It woul dbe nice to extend an arm and meet online, if only for a small amount of time, a couple of minutes or so. I'd be happy to launch a podcast if you're willing to. Take care. -Sam

to preface this, I have not been diagnosed with schizophrenia but a lot of the things you speak of, I can relate to. as a kid, i would do the same thing (cover self completely and wake up drenched in sweat) and whenever nobody is home at night I tend to get extremely paranoid, one time I brought a big ass knife with me and slept under my bed. so stupid of me, there's no real reason to break into my home, I'm not involved in any criminal activities, I'm not rich, I have dogs but for some reason I just am. whenever i feel any physical symptoms i tend to overthink/exaggerate them and think I'm going to end up dying and have extreme end of life anxiety and afterward comes the depression, everything becomes dull and meaningless. all motivation is lost, that tends to last up to a week. anyway.. the work you're doing is fantastic, helps me tremendously and I'm sure it does for many others as well. have a good one, take it easy.

That's really fucking weird. I'm awake 24 hours a lot of days, and it's for the exact reason you stated - I'm always researching and I don't want to interrupt that with the waste of time that is sleep. I call it "getting stuck in the 36-hour day". It also impacts my eating too. And I've also always slept with my lamp on. I used to also always sleep with my radio on too.

Hey Jacob, so to answer your question about how Seroquel works (or why it's different), the answer is that even though it is classified as an "antipsychotic", it actually has very little affinity for the D2 receptor, its action is overwhelmingly at the Alpha-1 (adrenergic) and H1 (histamine) receptors. See here: image.slidesharecdn.com/atypicalantipsychotics-140917112035-phpapp01/95/atypical-antipsychotics-5-638.jpg?cb=1410952868 So because it blocks H1 and a1, that's why it's so good at giving you the sedative effect; the flip side of that though is that because it has so little affinity for D2, it's not very good at treating positive symptoms (probably why you're still having hallucinations and delusions). But if you find the Seroquel is benefiting you and don't want to change it, one thing you could consider is adding a low dose of Haldol (Haloperidol). As you can see on the pie chart, that's a very strong D2 blocker, basically at the opposite extreme compared to Seroquel, so that could be a way to address your residual symptoms.

Sleep MD saved my day. For many years I only got a nights sleep after about every 2 1/2 days. So 2 days no sleep, then 1 nights sleep, then 3 days no sleep, and so on and so on... Eventually it totaled up to the loss of a complete years worth of sleep.

I used to endure years of sleep paralysis with depression, anxiety and those hallucinations during SP. This problem with SP for such a long time, promps a question: Could years of sleep paralysis trigger off bouts of schizophrenia? The reason why I ask is because I was diagnosed years ago with acute paranoid schizophrenia, of course I had those positive symptoms - delusions, paranoia, thought broatcasting and visual and auditory hallucinations. Some times nowadays, I have problems sleeping...even with prescribed abilify. What do you think about this?

When I was a kid, I used to always hear those idiots on TV talking about the stock market when I tried to sleep lol. That's the only audible issue that ever really drove me crazy. I used to hit my head on walls trying to shut them up lol. One thing I can say, lack of sleep really contributes to hallucinations. I always think of it as dreaming while awake. Acts up more when tired, as if your brain is trying to go to sleep on you. At least for me anyway. Of course if I felt presences or heard screaming, I don't suppose I'd sleep either.

If you still got problems with darkness, one realisation that was a watershed moment for me was this: When the light is off, visualise what the room you're in looks like when the light's on. I found that instead of struggling to make out the room & setting the imagination loose on what's in the darkness, trust that the room will behave exactly as it did when the light was on, all the things that were there while the room was lit are still there & never any of the stuff introduced by imagination (not yet anyways!). Visualise it lit, if you can. I found comfort in this & overcame my own fear of darkness this way. Onbviously only works in rooms you've previously seen, but how often is one in an unknown darkened room?

I have schizoaffective and I either oversleep or stay up late for the same reasons (to learn). I usually don't trust people or I am too trusting, they are plotting against me or they know everything about me and hate me. I wont go where there are a lot of people and inside a building. I talk in my sleep too. My main delusion is from a childhood event and I still think there is a foreign object inside my body. I got really paranoid where I lived cause I thought they knew about it and wanted to kill me. I have really bad laziness, like I sit in my room for like 4 hours and get nothing done. Space cadet here! I don't have hallucinations but I have hallucinated. I am pretty anti-social. Even my friends I had for a long time were accomplices to my main delusion. They choose the side of popularity and were helping the enemy.

Stace C I have schizophrenia and I will say each person has a different experience with it and it’s also the same way with medication. It can be tricky. We like to not feel the same reaction as most people. I was always extremely paranoid with my psychiatrist when I had to talk about my hallucinations. I also was paranoid about what she thought of me. Empathy, trust and safety are key. It’s a scary world so finding some tranquility is really important.

Just had to share with you that I have sleep paralysis. I just found out that they are starting to do research and schizophrenia may be a sleep disorder. Makes sense to me. “Delusional” would seem to me just the normal mind trying to make sense of a half dream half reality - reality. It’s like you’re living a waking dream and trying to make sense of both realities. But maybe if this is true you could learn to control your hallucinations or better stated “awake dreams”, the way some people learn to control their dreams. And ask people you trust to help you parse the difference between what is dream and what is reality by doing regular reality checks with people you trust like your parents. Thank you so much for sharing your experience and educating people about this. I don’t think your “paranoid delusional”, I think you may have a deep disorder that causes you to hallucinate and you are trying to make sense of a what can sometimes be an awake nightmare. Dream analysis might be helpful too, like anaylzOng your hallucinations as though they are dreams rather than reality, once you can determine what’s real and what isn’t. But like some very real dreams, I can only imagine that sometimes that has to be really hard. Your beautiful as a young person. Thank you for sharing!!!

I used to be so afraid that I'd sleep in my mom's room. She believed my stories and delusions that she would turn on all the lights in the house including the bedroom light at night. I slept with the light on for about 3 years now. Now though I sleep in a room of my own. The nights when I'm creeped out or scared of something, I'll leave the light on. But if creepy stuff don't get mentioned or I don't hear noises when I'm alone, then at night I'll leave it off. The hallway light will be on though. Listening to asmr on youtube helps me get sleepy for bedtime. I've heard somewhere that if you miss alot of sleep your more prone to hallucinations. I don't know if that's true or not.

Is why a child is scared to sleep. Please ask your doctor to run a microbiome check on you. Known research has shown problems with gut microbes can have a knock on effect with mental health.

The only time it's different is when I drink caffeine. I'm hyper-sensitive to caffeine and I'm not sure if it's just me, or if it's something to do with the anti-psychotics or the schizophrenia. I'm not even talking about Coffee. If I have 3 cups of Breakfast Tea, I'll usually be awake for 30 hours and... To be honest... It's pretty great. I'll be buzzing out of my fucking skull and when I'm on tea is the only time that I actually feel positive. People pay good money to get what I can get from a teabag and some hot water.

I also have trouble sleeping when I get riled up. Like, I sometimes go to Mental Health Text Chat Rooms and I was there once where there was these two guys (I suspect they were possibly the same guy with two accounts) and I'm pretty sure he was just there to "trigger" people with mental health. The things they said, even with the extra time you get to screen things (with it being text-chat instead of voice chat or face-to-face chat), they just seemed very "off". It's hard to explain, as most problems from social interaction that come about with schizophrenia. You'd know if you "were there and experienced", but to describe it and give examples, it doesn't make much sense. I like to think I gave as good as I got that night, but either way, those guys were unfriendly arseholes.

LMAO same, I'll try to think rationally like "ok this would never happen" or "they would obviously never do that" but it's still in my mind as a reality, delusion.

i know this is //really// hard but you could try looking at sleep as completing a task when it comes to taking care of your body :) it's not a waste of time, you need it to help your brain absorb all of the new information you learn. i know that you have probably already done this though. i hope you continue to sleep well!

sleep is for the weak and it only prevents me from learning, my life is busy and noisy and crowded so only when everyone else has fallen asleep I can actually devote my time to whatever

Hi Jacob, how are you doing? Do you study or work now? I know you like science, but what kind would prefer, if you had to choose: chemistry, physics, biology, astronomy or mathematics? Which way would you like to go (Astronomy, right 😉) ? I think psychology would go as well too. P.S.: I am really sorry for my bad english. English is not my native language

I never understood how people feel safer with blankets over their head, I was too terrified to blink when I was in my room at night. I didn't hallucinate other than the paranoia causing minor hallucinations, I was just extremely paranoid that demons were in my room and they'd appear suddenly if I stopped looking. I'm not schizophrenic though, just similar in some ways. Btw sleep paralysis doesn't just affect mentally ill people it's actually common to have it at least once, mentally ill people are probably at a higher risk for it though because stress is a big factor in sleep paralysis.. It's not important info but you said you didn't know so I was letting you know.
