@LivingDead532 жыл бұрын
I don't know. I wish they'd do more research on disorganization in schizophrenia. When I was in a group home, I was with disorganized schizophrenics who never came back to reality and the meds did not help them at all minus to curb some of the anxiety they had from a chaotic world. Antipsychotics did next to nothing for them. Sometimes, I will randomly lose organization or start responding to strange thoughts and be tangled, but I come back to reality with help, time, and perphenazine. Less vague. I am not a disorganized schizophrenic as they are. I've had issues since I was 8 but had some family politics that prevented me from getting care. I'm also dyslexic. I don't know the difference. Writing helps me along with reading as well.

I tried a low dose of Abilify but my diagnosis was Autism Spectrum Disorder. It did make “simultaneous” thinking less constant (I have endless thought parallelism that takes me out of the moment). But ultimately Vyvanse turned out to be a better tool. For me, medication just takes care of enough of the neurological to give me a fighting chance to improve the psychological. None are “magic.”
@DrTraceyMarks3 жыл бұрын
I could see how it wouldn’t be magic for you with autism spectrum. There’s so many facets to ASD that there really isn’t one medicine to treat the issues. But I’m glad the Vyvanse gives you that fighting chance

Antipsychotics are one of the worst medications ever used to treat anything. The way they work is completely inefficient and even dangerous. It ruins the life of people who already suffer alot masking it as the only way out of the condition. Modern psychiatry is completely missing the point with most of what they do and it just requires a look in the history books on what kind of foundation it's built. I myself got diagnosed with schizophrenia about 5 years ago the meds pretty much took everything I loved in life ranging from creativity to social interaction to sexual pleasure. A year ago I quitted my risperdal single handedly against anyone's advice and by now I moved out of my home country, married a beautiful woman, regained my creativity and joy for life and my mental health struggles were extremely severe I used to destroy the flat I lived in with my mom because I thought higher forces are about to execute me, behaved toxic and delusional in many ways but all of that didn't got any better from engaging in psychiatric "treatment, in fact it got worse. I'm not telling anyone what health decisions they should make but I definitely see it as crucial to make choices coming from within than to blindly accept anything beeing told to u by doctors or psychologists because every human is unique and there's no one group medications that works for everyone especially not in the mental health field.

@@MM-eb4fl I use many different ways to manage my symtoms without using meds. I do believe that those natural treatments don't work as well whilst on the medications but even if your son is still on them it does help alot. The things I recommend and what has helped me to recover are - natural supplements like magnesium, zinc, vitamins, cbd, kratom, vitamin b12 and all of those kind of things but you have to do your own research on how it works how to take it and for some things like cbd or kratom it can't really be combined with antipsychotics and should definitly do alot of research on them and considering if it's worth a try because for some it doesn't work whilst for others it's a miracle medicine. - exercise, even if it's just a little. In beginning I used a small trampoline to just slowly get into it because I was not in a good shape, I also got my testosterone levels checked by a doc where he confirmed that my levels are very low therfore receiving replacement therapy wich has helped me so much and also those medications tend to disturb hormone balance so it's worth asking a doc to check your son's testosterone levels. - mindfulness, meditation, creativity, yoga. Can do that in many forms and it's not for everyone but it can definitly restore alot of inner calm and prevent psychotic episodes. All of those are very deep and subjective fields so it's my subjective experience too but it worked for me so it might work for him too. Good luck.

I've met a couple of people who had severe schizophrenia complete with the famous "word salad" and neither one of these people ever seemed to get better. One ended up in hospital for more than two years, the other was in a halfway house. I talked to one of these people at quite some length, the way she talked was almost like poetry sometimes and she would mention strange things like "the smoke in the garden" (where there was no smoke). It seemed almost as if she was on an ongoing drug trip, except her emotions and reactions seemed opposite to those of someone who's tripping. She seemed flat, uninspired, unhappy. Not terrified or paranoid but very flat and although she would often laugh for no apparent reason usually she seemed bored and unhappy and extremely unfulfilled. Whatever they were giving her obviously didn't work and I couldn't help wondering how ill she would be on no meds at all.

My schizophrenia certainly was treatment resistant. I didn't allow myself to be treated. I decided that I needed to trust my delusional mind over that of someone wanting to medicate me. Anyway, I cured myself by ignoring my hallucinations delusions and beliefs so that they lost their power over me. I have been symptom free since about 1984. I retired at the age of 62 after working 30 years at a high security airport. I'm glad, so glad I resisted treatment.

He is now 28 and his last medication was clozaril, it did not help at all. It just made him very sick. So now 11 years later he has diabetes, high blood pressure and gained at least 80 lbs. his psychiatrist tried prescribing Haldol and ECT treatment. I told him I don’t want to add more medication to what he has been already prescribed and I don’t want him to be medicated especially when there is so many side effects. I just don’t know what to do anymore. I feel like taking him off of his medications that do not work, basically it’s causing him health issues. I don’t think our bodies can handle that much medication. It’s too much.

I miss the thumbnail you had for the original "What is Schizophrenia" video. There are those of us who live with a loved one who suffers schizophrenia, and didn't know that's what it was (most YT videos "clean it up" so much, to not "offend" people, that I almost bought into the delusion that family member does _not_ have schizophrenia.) Yours was the first video that made "schizophrenia" seem like a good diagnosis (versus, as police think, methamphetamines, or "PTSD" though there had been no trauma prior to sudden psychotic "fits"). I know people didn't like that thumbnail, but I probably never would have clicked had I not seen that scary thumbnail. It may have offended some, but it was a truthful representation of an untreated ill person. They're paranoid and that thumbnail and title REALLY caught my attention.

Hi doc, great vid. Would like to draw your attention to something. There's a growing movement trying to get PSSD, or post ssri sexual dysfunction, recognised as a legitimate and debilitating side effect of taking ssris. Its supposed to cause permanent emotional blunting, loss of libido and anorgasmia. It's got some big names backing it, and the European Medicines Agency has recently required ssri boxes to state that sexual side effects may persist upon discontinuing treatment. Detractors say people allegedly suffering from it are depressed and undergoing psychosomatic problems. Would really appreciate a video where you unpick the studies and give your unbiased and considered thoughts on this disease. The more the movement gains traction, the more hesitant people will be to take potentially life saving medication. I have no medical background so I would be really curious to hear what you think about this - does it really exist? And if so, what are the chances of getting it? And if it doesnt exist, what else could be causing these horrible symptoms? Thanks!

I have changed my number because I am tired, I have developed a phobia (when my phone rings, I fear they will tell me something bad happen to my mom/brother) I have an older sister and she's just not in the picture. It has been 9 months not talking to my mom and yesterday someone told me my mom has been worried about me, that she was sick last week.

Dr.Tracey, can you make a video on how to put myself back out there? I think I am not the only one who feels this and is experiencing it. I used to be a goal oriented lady. I am studious, I mind my own business and I always think I have to study well so I can get the best results and have a better life. But so many life obstacles I have been through. I feel like my soul has been crushed. 2 yrs ago, I studied as a pilot trainee. After training for 1 year, I was rushed to ER because I had breathing problem that we didn’t know I have it was due to pressure and asthma. That was the end for me. From that day, I felt so sad and would lock myself in my room. The competitive, insensitive, annoying people also have made it worse by asking me always what happened and they will even give their stupid opinions as if they know what I am feeling and thinking. I also feel like I don’t like to socialize with other people. Only my family and my bf are the people I want to talk to longer and spend time with. I literally feel drained and when I try to do something to change the rut I’ve been through, I just feel lazy, unmotivated to do it. I feel so lost. Days pass that I am just at home, sleeping, eating and watching Netflix. If I’m un the mood I also read some books since I was into books before. I feel like I lost the fun and motivation in life. Dunno how to stop this.

Hey Doctor Marks great video! I think i may have had scizophrenia since I was really young and I'm 19 now , I've been paranoid as long as I can remember but I thought that was normal. I would describe it more as a strong universal feeling of hypervigilance. I have a hard time keeping my composure just walking to the store, because i feel like people can read my mind or that know what I'm thinking. In all honesty it leaves me utterly exausted, and I have a hard time managing my emotions because of it. I'm always in this perpetual battle with myself do I really have this mental illness ? Or is it just my mind playing tricks on me? Did I do this to myself? My parents didn't notice anything off about me growing up, why didn't they do anything. Also Doctor Marks, should I try to avoid the anti psychotics they put me on quetiapine furmate this was my first time trying / engaging with psychiatric drugs for these issues. The quetiapine made me feel like i was on very hard drugs , I barley took it for 3 days. It left me with twitching lips , I couldn't sleep for a week straight it was insane .

It depends. Perpehazine is the only medicine that works for me. Sometimes, the levels build up too much, and I skip a day or two. I know when I need it and can feel the pill being needed again. It helps to unscramble me or help me think more logically. I am not a disorganized schizophrenic, the worst type. I've had this problem since I was 8. I think it shows up differently if it starts earlier. When I was a kid, I had visual and audio hallucinations all of the time, but they waned a bit during my teen years. I had people who came through the walls and other things then. I didn't even know that I had audio hallucinations until 2011. I thought everyone had those. Many of them were my friends but have been gone since 2013. I read some word salad I typed 7 months ago on youtube, and I can't even think in that way at the moment. However, I was attacked by a blackbird that wasn't there a few weeks ago. I ignore that. It's actually from a seizure, and I had an abnormal EEG, but not too weird. They were confused. I don't know anything beyond that. But different hallucinations have different reasons.

In Florida, a person who is being harmful to themselves or others can be Baker Acted (involuntarily hospitalized) but even then they have the right to refuse medication--unless there is a Court Order. A visiting justice will come to the hospital, so involuntary medication is a matter of legality in accordance to your state laws. There are also emergency treatment orders if the person is acting out severely. What a state does is fully determined by your State legislature and laws.

Hello! I have been taking clozapine for more than a decade now. And it's getting worse. I know what's wrong with me and I can't control it. It robbed me every relationship I had before I got sick. My family and now my friends. It's really overwhelming right now. My last option is to get ect. I don't want to die. I just want to live normally where I can socialize. I can't finish college or get ahold of a job because of this thing that's wrong with me. I want to make my life worthwhile as I want to do a lot of things. I just want to ask if ect really work? Because right now I'm desperate.

Sadly every time a person experiences psychosis, there is brain damage. Classic schizophrenia is hallucinations, speech and thought distortions, delusions, behavior distortion, and negative symptoms. Many are non-compliant with medications; consider long-acting injections, and assertive community treatment (home health). 1/3rd of schizophrenics are treatment resistant. Sometimes brain surgery is used as a last resort: These are called destructive ablative psychosurgery like anterior cingulotomy and anterior capsulotomy or selective stimulation (neuromodulation psychosurgery) which electrode implants are placed in the brain. ECT and TMS provides a noninvasive means and obviously are tried first.

I don’t know the scope of what a functional neurologist does. Psychiatry and neurology have some crossover. So a functional neurologist could treat psychosis if they can prescribe medication and know how to recognize psychosis.

Hello dr, Last week on Tuesday I got a panic/anxiety attack I left work by the time I got to my car I was puking, the next day I was put on Zoloft, ever since Thursday last week I feel very weak and with no energy, have not been able to go back to work. All my blood work came back normal. Is this feeling of weakness normal and will it go away soon when Zoloft kicks in?

I have a cousin who has schizophrenia and he is interested in criminology and psychology, can I send him a book where are informations about schizophrenia, straight life examples of people with this? Will it help him or make him worse? Or maybe he will take this as a examples of new behaviors? Should I stop talk to him about criminals etc? I want to support him but he is easy to manipulate others, sometimes he steal (couple of times from family). Can I trust him? He seem to need emotional support and I want to send him to the hospital this book and couple of candy's but I don't know.. Can you please give me advice?

Hey Dr, I’m part of an OSDD-1b system and I want to ask a question if that’s ok. This may be triggering so I’ll put it under “read more” Yesterday, a new alter showed up in the system. I met her through a dream and she seems really dangerous. She fronted during my therapy yesterday and admitted to having urges to kill my cat. I’ve had impulsive thoughts about killing people before, and I’ve hurt people before, but I always feel bad about it and I’m afraid of those thoughts. She’s not afraid of them. I could feel her apathy when she was envisioning herself killing my cat. She was smiling the whole time. I don’t want to believe she’s real. She’s been taunting me in my head ever since she made herself known yesterday. I don’t know what made her this way. The only violent thing my parents did to me was slap me and pull my hair. And it was only one time. I’m scared.... if you could provide any insight I would be grateful

Lithium levels in your blood probably aren't in therapeutic range yet. You should have bloods after 7 days to check lithium levels and dose increased if you're not yet in the therapeutic range. So it may be that your mood has slipped more and the lithium isn't yet starting to do its job
