This was great. Psychosis and hospitalization brought about my diagnosis at 45 years old. Hearing it described so closely to my experience helps me accept it and the diagnosis are real.

I love this video. I think another important point is that psychosis isn’t always related to childhood trauma. Psychosis surrounding false narratives about trauma in childhood which aren’t disputed by fact based reality, can perpetuate psychotic states, which can destroy otherwise healthy family systems which were intact, before the person experiencing psychosis became psychotic. It’s very important for a trusted loved one who can substantiate fact based experiences from childhood to work alongside a trusted therapist to help the person experiencing psychosis get better.

Thank you for the discussion. It seems those who have Bipolar, even in my support group for those with depression and Bipolar, psychosis was never discussed. I felt so alone in the pain of a major episode 10 yrs last month and this aniversary really hit me. I seriously could have ended my life in a major car crash but thank God no one else was hurt and I only had 4 bruises to show for it. I left $60k of property damage but that could be fixed. The trauma of that experience still haunts me to this day. Still continuing to take my medication and in therapy.

I can understand how you feel. I hope she gets appropriate help that she needs. I have been through this with my daughter had an episode 3months ago. I was very scared but i soon realised pyscosis is manageable with antipschosis drugs. medication. Now she is stable and receiving mental health support alongside family support. All i can suggest is to be calm and be hopeful and supportive. Your daughter's mental state will be stable. Good luck

Within the first 17m, I just had 80% of my questions on psychosis answered that my psyche couldn’t. Apparently I’ve been psychotic quite a few times in the past 5 years and NO ONE had any idea, including myself. Just like Victoria, my psychotic features were presented during mania and they weren’t scary AT ALL. If anything, it helped me grow into my faith more lol. 😂

This is the best advice I've seen yet. 29:13 The First Step to Help A Loved One in Psychosis: "Be careful, try not to be pushy, try to be patient, listen. First listen and listen and listen. You need to LISTEN first. And then try to find a space in which you can actually give help. It's like going fishing. You have to be patient, you have to remain stable. You will see the cue for you to jump in. What's the key point where you can say "I can help you, make you feel better"? Don't get into talking about the delusional idea. Don't try to say "that is not real". If he or she pushes you to say "is this happening?" don't say "it is not happening". You say "it is happening to you in your brain, and I want you to know that I feel that you're afraid or that you're feeling happy for that." So they need to be empathized [with], and they need to feel that you understand them. That's a first step. Seek first to understand and listen, and then take action."

There is hope ,healing and creative expression in bipolar. Lithium and Olanzepine is a Godsend. I wish my son would have taken his meds on time which would have prevented a meltdown. I wish he would do ART like he used to do when young.Exercise also helped Samuel when he was younger!

With all respect and love, please don’t use identifying information about your son online such as his name. I would be absolutely horrified and stop talking to my parent as much if I found out they were publicly posting my name in relation to my illness online. I hope he has a different last name than you or you’ve just given his first and last name out. Please remove his info, you can edit your post ❤

My son just turned 20 last month. He was dating a very nice beautiful girl, but then the next thing I hear is he is dating someone else new. She said they were just friends until she got him to break up with his girlfriend. She is very smart and seems down to earth. Dressed very shabbily. She is 20, turning 21. Somewhat unattractive, unhealthy level of overweight, and will only eat chicken nuggets. I’ve never seen her eat anything else except coke. I just found out she is bi polar. She got him to move in with her. Demanded a puppy. Then “lost” her job that week. She hasn’t gotten a new job. They have only been “dating” less than six months. My son says he is quitting college to take care of her. They will live in a camper on her family’s property just outside a small town in a very poor county in Tennessee. Son has said before there is a history of abuse in this family. Does anyone have any information for me? These seem like a lot of bad choices piling on top of each other really fast.

Be there for him. He’s making a huge mistake for sure, if he needs financial help to stay with her, don’t give it! My ex wife took advantage of me like this, and eventually reality will hit him. If you can chat about details of his daily life without getting angry or pushing him away, do it. He’s too young to be throwing everything away. But the good thing, is by 26 he will have a revelation. It took me 10 years and now at 34 I am thriving after divorce at 30.

Love is what allows you to move millions of people, to rally them, to inspire them, to give them a vision to do something, love is what allows you to land someone on the moon, love is what allows you to tackle slavery or oppression of other sorts, love is what allows you to care about the environment, clean up the environment, to create better schools and that's ultimately all that people want. What do people want in the world? They want to be able to love. To love their family, to love their children, to love their nation and then to go beyond that and smoke DMT.

CAn psychosis take over for a few months and make an introvert extremely gregarious to the point of spending thousands at strip clubs and having lots of sex with multiple strippers, then the "urge" go away as quickly as it came on,. I'm concerned another hightened and porlonged hypomania or psychosis is coming on because of a horrific lack of sleep/insomnia.
