As someone with bipolar type 1 I wish you would have mentioned people with Bipolar 1 can have psychosis and delusions in the same way people with schizophrenia have them. It's a terrible disease and we still don't know how it works. Great video!!

[@silabelll]

the crazy thing is that like half of these can be included in schizophrenia

[@BuddyBot]

Right?? I noticed that a ton of these are linked to schizophrenia in some way.

[@LillianGraceFullofficial]

it’s even more insane that it also is really underrepresented and have a lot of inaccurate representation in media. last time I saw schizophrenia being represented it was to make a character into a villain and was really rude and totally unrealistic.

[@brad-hj4nj]

Well schizophrenia and related disorders are basically just the prefrontal cortex slowly melting away into swiss cheese so a schizophrenic has probably experienced having every personality disorder and forms of divergence possible

I know when my depression is out of control, when i go grocery shopping and cant decide which piece of fruit to choose out of the pile. Ill just stand there for too long, and i literally can't make a decision, or decide which apples to pick. Like its some huge decision that weighs so heavy on me. I think i remember hearing about not being able to make decisions in this vid...made me think of myself.

[@Godzooky]

As an adult with adhd that has a child with adhd, it’s a lot more than attention and it’s not just diagnosed in children. Reducing it to a children’s disorder is a lot of the reason it’s not taken seriously in adults. It comes with problems in executive functioning, not just attention. I’m so good at so much stuff but bad at the things that require me to sit and focus on things that require steps. I can sit and do puzzles tho so I don’t have issues concentrating, I have issues concentrating and things that don’t give me dopamine.

[@mimotakito1114]

I have it too and the older I get the more I realize its largely a motivation related disorder. Our brains simply do not make enough dopamine to motivate ourselves to do many simple tasks, so we tend to fall into bad habits of binge eating, addictive behavior, and obsessiveness/hyper fixation because those actions create a rush of dopamine and other happy chemicals that our brains are largely starved of. You can see how this affects attention and focus. You cant force a machine to work if it isn’t oiled, thats how adhd brains tend to work. Its a generalization im aware as some people experience this differently but its largely true with all the people I’ve spoken with who also have the disorder. It can make jobs and school later in life and extremely difficult and in some extreme cases basically impossible as the person has a very difficult time making themselves do anything. This is the symptom that I’ve struggled the most with my entire life. I tend to binge eat, forget to eat, I lose track of time and play games for hours, study topics that I find deep interest in for too long so much so that it impedes the other tasks I need to perform. There’s also issues with memory recall as its hard for us to remember certain things, this greatly affects school and work as well as there are lots of assignments and jobs associates with these things. If someone doesn’t have a support structure ADHD and its symptoms and how people react to them can continually chip away at their self esteem, self image and even self awareness in general. I genuinely believe that ADHD is one of the most misunderstood and I accommodated disorders, as no one who doesn’t have the disorder and doesn’t study this sort of stuff doesn’t have an actual grasp on what the disorder does. These people are every where, and the lapses in cognition and missteps people with ADHD fave every day can be seen as laziness, even passive aggressiveness in some cases. I know other people with other disorders have it harder or just as hard, but as someone with ADHD and knows countless others with it, I believe that ADHD is one of the most debilitating. My two cents lol

[@BuddyBot]

Thanks for the view man. I’m sorry if you felt misrepresented by my description of your and your child’s condition. That wasn’t at all my intention.

[@urplantpal]

I'm curious as to why anorexia and bulimia aren't in the same category and was wondering if you could explain. Also if you make another one of these, you should go more in-depth into eating disorders as there is not just anorexia and bulimia. There's also orthorexia, EDNOS, ARFID, diabulimia, and others, and any eating disorder can cause serious physical symptoms. For your OCD explanation, the most debilitating thing at least for me is the intrusive thoughts and many people struggle with harm thoughts which are more taboo. Mental compulsions are also just as common as physical compulsions.

[@BuddyBot]

So this iceberg was made by u/SpaghettiRush on Reddit, not me. Any questions about the structure or formation of the chart should be directed to him. However, what I will say is that if I ever make another serious mental health video again, it’ll likely be on autism. Eating and feeding disorders are fascinating too, but as you may be able to tell from the comments section here, I have more to correct myself on when it comes to autism spectrum disorder. And to your point about mental compulsions - I agree. I don’t have OCD, but I do have something somewhat related. I won’t go into much detail at all, but I will say that mental compulsions and overwhelming thoughts can be damn near debilitating.

[@stqzr4839]

Thank you so much for mentioning diabulimia! It’s so upsetting when I see people talking about eds but never know what diabulimia is

[@BuddyBot]

Thank you so much man!

[@bubby-fi9mc]

Well scripted video. I will be that guy though and correct you on some of the lingo around autism, mainly cause it starts out the video and I feel is worth noting to ease confusion. Autism is labeled a neurological disorder, not a mental one, meaning the brain is physically shaped different than a normal persons. The overlap and confusion starts because many kids with autism often also develop mental disorders later in life due to social pressures, such as anxiety and depression, but it’s not a mental illness in and of itself. I can tell your intent wasn’t malicious at all though, so I feel confident I can point these things out without it feeling picky.

[@BuddyBot]

Duly noted! Thanks for this dude

[@LawnOfCorn]

@@BuddyBot Also not to be nit picky but as an autistic person I like to make people aware of things. Aspergers syndrome is actually no longer a diagnosis! There’s a bunch of reasons why but quite a prevalent one is that ‘aspergers syndrome’ is named after a nazi, hans asperger, and obviously he did some shitty things. Alsoooo many autistic people dislike the puzzle piece symbol but I cbf going into that bc that’s a whooole different thing. No hate to you at all though, these are common things that people aren’t aware of and that’s okay!!

[@Andy_008]

​@@LawnOfCornUnfortunately, Asperger's is still a diagnosis in some countries.. considering i have it diagnosed. I prefer to be simply called autistic but everyone shuts me down because im "high functioning" and I'm not like "other autistic", referring to those who had it diagnosed since they were born and those who are for example mute.

I was diagnosed with tourettes syndrome when I was 6 it was really scary and painful but I'm very happy to know that with age (I'm 20 now) I mostly have only face and hand tics to the point where most people don't even know I have it for some it gets better with age and I am grateful every day that it has gotten better and now I'm also grateful that I don't hear explosions when I wake up

[@mrslloyd]

Impressive overview! Well done.

[@shatteredprism]

As someone with DID, I think you did a pretty good job at explaining it, but saying it's scary kind of rubbed me the wrong way (but I can understand how it could seem or be scary to some). Before I found out I had it, the amnesia for things unnerved me, and depending on what had happened while I wasn't in control, when I would be back in control, some experiences I had scared me. In my opinion, this disorder most likely saved my life (due to the childhood trauma that caused me to develop it).

[@BuddyBot]

I’m sorry that comment didn’t hit right. I only meant that the symptoms sounded scary to me, but I totally get how it’s defensive purposes could have saved you. I suppose from that perspective things seem different

[@shatteredprism]

@BuddyBot It's alright, I understood that there was no ill intent and how the symptoms could be scary from an outside perspective, symptoms were scary for me before I knew what was going on. /lh, g Edited to change wording to be reflect my thoughts and feelings.

[@trinityanderson859]

If you have ever had that feeling of being big and small at the same time and that space around you doesn’t exist it’s probably something like Alice in wonderland syndrome. I’ve had a few experiences where I’ll be laying in bed and everything around me just kinda “disappears” and I feel like I’m almost floating in space but like the dark part of space. It’s the most comfortable feeling and the most uncomfortable feeling on the earth it’s strange. 19:48

I can only imagine what it’s like to have Stendhal syndrome and going on vacation to somewhere like Paris.

[@Lilzi_FC]

Same with PTSD. As someone who’s had both, I feel that they should be higher on the list. Anorexia can be deadly and cause your organs to eat themselves, while PTSD can send the victim into a state of psychosis. Both outcomes are extremely destructive and dangerous.

Also keep in mind a lot of women end up getting misdiagnosed with ADHD and or BPD when they’re really just autistic. There’s not a lot of research on female autism up until now. so we really don’t know if most of the women who are diagnosed with those disorders are actually autistic or the diagnosis was correct in the first place. I’m in that situation where I’m not sure my original diagnosis are correct. I was always told I looked like I had ADHD, but I would pass the ADHD tests with flying colors. I was also diagnosed with BPD, but the symptoms of BPD just don’t seem to match up like they used to. I think my doctor had a suspicion that the diagnosis were wrong to begin with because I was so young. I had barely turned 18 when I had my most recent diagnosis. My doctor wanted to wait until I turned 21 to give me a full diagnosis but in order to try to get state insurance he gave me the diagnosis. I still can’t get approved. So now I think that everything I’ve ever been told is a lie. 9:55

[@kai_alex]

i really liked the video and i think it was done well but i wanna ramble about stuff in the comments because i like to talk about this type of stuff and i know a lot of little facts about different disorders, ive been researching disorders for years but i wont share every fact that pops into my brain or i will be typing for hours im autistic and the puzzle piece isnt used anymore, instead i saw a new symbol recently the rainbow infinity. aspergers also isnt used anymore as a diagnosis, because of more research being put into the spectrum and many use asd/autism instead as a term if they were diagnosed aspergers in the past because the term/label has history with n*zi germany in WWII and i know you didnt make the iceberg but autism and adhd both arent considered mental illness theyre both considered disabilities and autism spectrum isnt a line its more like multiple lines with different traits being diffrent severities for the depression entry there is another type: persistent depressive disorder (something im diagnosed with) which is a type of depression where it lasts years ptsd entry: i have cptsd which is a type of ptsd not often talked about, it means complex ptsd and it is a disorder caused by repeated trauma before the brain fully develops (25) social anxiety entry: there is also a rare disorder that is an extreme form of social anxiety called selective mutism where the person will be unable to talk in certain social situations ive never researched transvestic disorder but it sounds like a really strange thing to have a term for because i know lots of trans people and people assume them being transgender is that bpd also is categorized by extreme fears of abandonment, thats one of the 9 criteria and probably one of the main ones that sets it apart from the other personality disorders. i also like that you didnt say "its women who have this disorder" because many creators without the disorder say that. im a guy going through the process of being assessed for it and its not "just a woman thing" i havent looked into this too much but many people dont like hpd being a seperate diagnosis because many say it is just a modern term for female hysteria, im a man so i dont know too much about this or what psychologists opinions on this are its good you pointed out not everyone with aspd is a bad person, many will generalize mental disorders as "everyone who has them is bad and you should be scared" and stuff along those lines did: my boyfriend has did and its a disorder caused by really severe childhood trauma dpd: a bpd "favourite person" can look like dpd but not necessarily be dpd i have more i can share but ive already typed a lot

just started the video and right off the bat, i'm seeing some outdated information about autism. first, aspergers syndrome is an outdated and ableist term that was removed from the dsm in 2013, and is now called autism. rett syndrome is something else entirely. the puzzle piece is also a hateful symbol to the autistic community due to its association with autism speaks which is a very bad organization. autism isnt a mental disorder and is instead a developmental disability. the correct word is traits, not symptoms. no hate to you, just constructive criticism. and i hope this isnt weird to say but youre really really cute. edit: i also wish you wouldve added that there has been a fight to have odd removed from the dsm because its usually a misdiagnosis of something else and it adds an unfair "bad kid" label to kids who just need more help than others. but i totally get that you wanted to keep it short and its not really well known knowledge lol edit 2: fun fact, the woman who created dbt, marsha m. linehan, actually has bpd and created it because she was misdiagnosed as a teen and she knew there needed to be help and understanding for people like her. edit 3: so happy you went over dpd!! nobody ever knows it when i tell them i have it and it drives me nuts edit 4: theres a girl i know who has coprolalia tourettes and someone asked her a question one time and she yelled "WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU HAD SEX?" in response lmao edit 5: capgras is pronounced cuh-GRAW. french people, man. edit 6: just finished the video and subscribed! great video, can't wait to see more from you!

I don’t think people will care about this opinion but I find it problematic on labeling of certain conditions as “mental illnesses”, specifically autism, adhd and some other stuff you mentioned, “illness” implies an ability to be cured, when it’s more of an affliction, a veteran who looses his leg in a war isn’t physically ill, he’s afflicted and disabled, unless you mean to imply autism, adhd and other afflictions, can be cured, I would discourage this phrasing, it does matter

anorexia should definitely be lower bc it has the highest mortality rate of most mental disorders, and so should bulimia, maybe its a biased take but i have had both for 4+ years, and they are very much life destroying, also they have lots of direct physical side effects from things like purging/restriction/lax abuse etc, i personally cant believe such a complex disorder could be on tier one.

[@J383n]

Couldn't ADHD be defined as a neurological issue too?

[@anotparticularlynotableguy]

@@J383n the thing is, ADHD affects the way one thinks and acts, while tourette syndrome is completely involuntary. It's not like OCD, where we need to do something because of a superstition ir something, but it's involuntary. We get and urge to do a tic, not because we're thinking a certain way, and do the tic so we dont feel pain.

Also, "Transvestic Disorder" is no where in the DSM5 and you said you used information from the DSM5 to elaborate on this iceberg so my question is did you look up this information online or did you use the actual DSM5 ? im not mad I just want to make sure that information about dragqueens/kings, trans people and "cross dressers" and their expression as a "disorder" is eradicated and not spread around :)

[@PossibleBat]

It’a an actual disorder

[@BuddyBot]

I should have been clearer on this one, my apologies. “Transvestic Disorder” is the word used by some (not all) psychologists to describe this certain type of paraphilia, which is a larger series of mental health conditions. Not everyone who cross-dresses meets the criteria to be diagnosed with the paraphilia, and thus do not have the mental disorder I described simply because of their lifestyle choice. Kind of like how not every “clean freak” has OCD or not every hyperactive child has ADHD (those are just off the top of my head). I really appreciate the comment. I try to be as respectful as possible and do the best research I can into the topics I cover, however if there’s any area I missed or got wrong, I always love to see people point that out to me.

21:54 I’m going to disagree with the notion that all personality disorders are genetic. Yes there usually is a genetic component to personality disorders but they usually have to have significant trauma or neglect or abuse for the disorder to manifest. I want to argue that everyone has an equal opportunity to have any mental illness that can manifest through trauma. Think about how a “normal human” can have a “normal life” without any mental health issues, but then they go through significant trauma. That one situation could be the catalyst for those disorders but I think everyone has an equal opportunity of having any personality disorder.

Autism Spectrum disorder is a neurodevelopmental disorder, the spectrum refers to how different it can present in each person. Asperger's is not the most common type of autism, it's not even a diagnosis anymore it was taken out of the dsm in 2013. Asperger's is named after the Nazi Hans Asperger who sent disabled children to their deaths. Asperger's was only ever used to push eugenics. Retts syndrome is no longer classed as an autism spectrum disorder, it is completely separate. When researching autism it's really important to check the dates of which the studies and articles were published, to make sure that the information is still relevant and considered true. Autism has a long and complicated history. Another thing to mention is the use of the puzzle piece symbol, it was originally created with an image of a crying child, depicting autism as something negative. It is most commonly associated with Autism Speaks, which is actually a hate group that seeks to eliminate autism as a whole and has a history of painting autism horrifically as the destroyer of families and all things good. Search for the "I am autism" commercial by autism speaks to see this for yourself. Know that I do not wish to put you down, my only goal is to educate everyone willing to listen, thank you.

[@yuricock]

i was abt to speak abt this aspergers is outdated and named after a nazi the image used in the video has puzzle pieces which is a hate symbol against autistic people and is normalized too much extensive research on autism, other disabilities, illnesses and disorders are important in general to stop misinformation and stigmatization

36:42 I had a fear that my gender had been changed at birth and it’s not related to being transgender because I am a women and was born a woman. During puberty I was terrified that I was boy because I was developmentally behind from most of my peers. (IF YOU ARE A CHILD PLEASE STOP READING) (contains information not suitable for children) I also have downstairs lips that were bigger than what I thought was “normal” even though there really is no standard. I thought that I had a penis at birth and it was just chopped off and then the balls sack just was there forever. I never actually believed that I was meant to be a boy I think there was just a huge phobia that I was different and nobody told me about it. In all honesty it didn’t really have anything to do with gender. I just felt like I was in the wrong place and that I wasn’t supposed to be there. I wasn’t supposed to be the person that I was. I’ve grown out of that fear of being a boy years ago after I finally started getting my more womanly shape but I still can’t shake the feeling that I don’t belong here. Like I was a mistake. I had never told anyone about that fear until now. I feel like it’s probably more common than we think and nobody talks about it.

HHH bro this video is painful to watch. False information and robotic tone. When you list off the symptoms It doesn't show that you understand the disorder especially with the strange tone. It's as if you were trying to learn about mental illnesses for an exam and you just used the first Google result as your answer.

[@BuddyBot]

Beep boop 🤖 that’s why I’m called Buddy BOT. In all seriousness though, I agree completely. Looking back, I don’t think I saw enough value in this channel to double/triple check my info and make sure the videos were top-notch. After all I had maybe 20 subs when I made this. That’s not to say that I “didn’t care.” I just didn’t think “hey, this video’s going to get thousands of views, I should make sure it’s all perfect” when I got ready to upload. That is entirely my fault, and I acknowledge that completely. I should have put in the extra effort despite a lack of confidence in my channel. I am currently working on a way to solve this issue without deleting the video. I would delete it, but I think it serves as a good reference point to see where I was at - something to look back at years down the line. But If you care to give me a second chance, look out for an update on this in the future. Thanks for the comment dude. Much love

don't use the puzzle symbol for autism. Not only is it offensive, but it's also the logo of an organization who wants to erredicate us and find a "cure" for autism. I don't wanna go in depth for a comment, but please PLEASE do your reasearch

Bro don’t even get me started on that…. The shadow people….. Benadryl addiction is a real thing.. its actually terrifying I don’t even want to remember that time I almost died…. Seriously though people don’t talk about it enough because it’s so terrifying and horrible. What’s worse is that you’ll consistently do it even if it’s terrifying. Addiction is a terrible disease I don’t wish it on anybody even someone I absolutely hate.

[@dark_fire_ice]

As someone with SzPD, ADHD, Asperger's and schizophrenia; this could be interesting. Yeah, a lot is very, very surface level, and very misleading or just wrong

[@BuddyBot]

Please tell me what I got wrong. I’m completely redoing this video, so your input helps

[@Nikki-cx6pc]

Out of the topic but you're cute😭😭

[@ButterflyonStone]

Psychologists don't diagnose they aren't medical doctors that would be psychiatrists the DSM is psychiatry not psychology. We dont place MH conditions into tiers! Any can be severe it's not a competition, lots of the things mentioned are not used diagnoses, many of them overlap in factors to the point that the whole approach of DSM is under heavy criticism. This is a really unhelpful video. Nothing like the reality of how we would diagnose. The personality segment on borderline PD was very outdated. I wouldn't read anything into this video if you are seeking mental health information. I know you spent a lot of time on this but as a qualified clinician please I'd ask that you not imply this is serious or accurate information.

"LSD and cannabis can also cause addiction" Can they though? Neither of those are physically addictive. I mean, have you ever actually done acid? It's not a substance you can take day after day lol

[@pxpe7765]

Yes they can both be addictive. If they arent for you.. yet, then that's great, but they absolutely can be. Anything can basically.

[@trinityanderson859]

They aren’t physically addictive but emotionally addictive yes they very much are.

[@VersusArdua]

@@trinityanderson859 that's dependence, and you get that because you use these substances as a crutch. You do that because there are problems in your personal life that you aren't addressing and it's easier to commit to a soothing chemical alternative than it is to actually get in the mindset necessary to deal with those problems. It's not an LSD problem and it's not a cannabis problem. If you have a problem with these substances, I'm sorry to say, but that problem is almost certainly you.

I don’t think you know this but Asperger’s and rhett syndrome are outdated terms it’s just autism now but it’s a wide spectrum with all different abilities, challenges, and amount of accomedaitons depending on the person. Also a lot of autistic people don’t like the puzzle pieve anymore
