Thank you Lord and to nurse Mike . I passed my Nclex exam last week with 85 questions. Watching most of your videos everyday helped a lot🎉🙏 simple nursing is the best.

Great video! One thing to add- schizophrenia is thought to be caused by an increase in dopamine in the brain, not decrease. That's why many antipsychotics work to block dopamine.

I passed my NCLEX because of you nurse mike. You’re mnemonics did well!!!❤️❤️❤️

Thanks for the video. But please note that at 0:40 >>>> Schizophrenics have a High Level of DOPAMINE not Low, This explained by the dopamine hypothesis

Thank you Team Mike, I passed my NCLEX RN 1st attempt by just watching your videos. You are awesome. Thank you! 🎉🎉🎉

Thank you SO MUCH to the Simple Nursing Team/ Mike!!! I watched these videos so much during nursing school and non-stop this past month preparing for the NCLEX. I wanted to come back and say thank you for all of your amazing videos that helped me pass!!

Thank you for this much-needed video! I have a test on schizophrenia this Friday!!

I watched all of your videos and I passed my NCLEX in 83 questions on my first attempt 6 months after graduation your videos along with UWorld are a great combo for passing the NCLEX. Thank you ☺️ you are awesome I love you, I couldn’t of done it without you.

Increase in dopamine but not decrease.Schizophrenia is associated with an imbalance in dopamine levels in the brain. The prevailing theory suggests an overactivity of dopamine transmission in certain areas of the brain, particularly the mesolimbic pathway. This overactivity is thought to contribute to positive symptoms of schizophrenia, such as hallucinations and delusions. However, the relationship between dopamine levels and schizophrenia is complex, and other neurotransmitters and brain regions are also involved in this disorder.

Uve been a great deal in my success I passed my nclex NGN at 86 , u were my plug God bless you for changing lives. Nurse u are doing great ❤

I just signed up for they premium package, all I can say is wooow I don't think anyone out there does this teaching thing. Better than Mike. Highly recommend Simple Nursing

dont think like that... see if you feel a little pain, the best thing is to ignore it. similarly you should ignore it and take the "full responsiblity" of your mind. it means - "whatever happens in my mind, i am responsible for it." and you will see soon that youre now ok! 😊

I thought schizophrenia’s neurochemical etiology is an INCREASE in dopamine and not a decrease. That’s why when levodopa (dopamine agonist) which increases the dopamine might cause psychosis Whereas, clozapine which is a dopamine antagonist decreases psychotic symptoms.

0:37 I believe that schizophrenia is caused by an increase in dopamine. That’s why meds for schizophrenia can cause Parkinson’s symptoms which is why it is important to have anti-parkinson drugs like Benadryl or other antihistamines.

This is great! Loud and clear! Thank you!

Hi Mike Thank you so much for everything I passed my Nclex with 75 questions at first take … Thank you so much for helping me with those videos during school … Your app helped me to understand better all content 🎉❤ MOST IMPORTANT THING IS I WAS CONFIDENT ABOUT CONTENT AND EXAM BECAUSE OF ALL KZfaq VIDEOS I watched so many videos than real books 😂 during school THANK YOU ❤ Whoever reading this comment and preparing for nclex Make sure you know all basic content about everything You can get questions from anywhere Fundamental of nursing and med surge is your key Trust me you will pass With flying colors ❤

Thanks ssooooooo much! I am taking NCLEX and you are saving me a huge time and lessen my worries.

This is excellent classic schizophrenia information. It may not fit this lesson to say this - but delirium may cause sick hospitalized elderly patients to say they see things. My daughter is often better able to calm these patients by not trying to orient to reality. Once she calmed a patient experiencing delirium by simply ordering some imaginary "loud children over in the corner" to quiet down so the patient could sleep. It worked.

Thank you nurse Mike and your team thank you I love the way you study you help me pass my exit and my NCLEX 😊 thank you

Love this videoooo🎉 thanks for loading it up!!

Thank you for your video. Your videos have helped me immensely to prepare and pass Nclex Rn in the first attempt with 75 questions .

Your videos helped me a lot . I passed my Nclex thank you

Mike u are doing marvelous ❤ I came to say thank you. After God you were my second source❤

Videos are very useful to review key concepts and highlights for NCLEX and nursing school prep. I am in Canada and maybe that's why my info is different but I have learned that acute dystonia of the neck, face, and tongue can happen within hours and is considered a medical emergency (although it is a side effect and part of EPS symptoms); 50 mg benedryl IV is given; can be severely painful and benztropine may also be given as well. So, in this case we would be contacting the HCP for orders. This is from Varcarolis Canadian Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing (2019) and my instructor for mental health. Can you clarify?

Good luck on your NCLEX future nurses! Please keep in mind as you treat schizophrenic patients that they need all the validation despite the things they're experiencing is "not real". Because it is 100% real to them. I feel very strongly about this because my schizophrenic loved one has been traumatized again and again by the very system that's supposedly supposed to help them.

Thank you for the information.

Thankyou!! These are gold!!!

Please can we have a video about Boron? Thanks 👍

You are gods sent. I want to thank you for all your hard work and dedication to helping nursing students succeed. I pass my nclex a few days ago because of you. This video helped with answering a few questions I got when I took nclex and I was so confident because you gived all the information I needed. Thank you❤

Thank you for sharing!

My friend's sister has schizophrenia but we do not know where we can receive treatment and therapy in Cambodia. Please recommend. We are living in Cambodia. Thank you.

That is the problem - voices - sounds and visual images and more can be transmitted to the brain .

voices might be real, but they are not saying the truth!! be strong and do not let those voices control you.

Thanks Mike. Awesome.

Is there any video regarding defense mechanism?

Thanks

It is an increase of dopamine not a decrease!

Hey Mike, I would like to purchased your plan but is there any discount code? I failed twice already, so im hoping on passing the nclex on the next one 😊

thanks nurse mike☺

Thank you Mike

In therapeutic communications you said stay with client, never leave client. Here you said if client wants to leave, let him go. How should we differentiate this????

Thank you so much!

Thank you so much

Thank you ♥

Thanks mike ❤

thank you

You're an Angel.🥹🤍

excesses or deficiencies in dopamine can lead to schizophrenic symptoms.

Per-SEV-eration, not pre-ser-vation

❤ helps me a lot

What about if schizophrenic is involuntary admitted and having a hallucination/delusional episode would they still be allowed to vote or not until their in their right state of mind

i cant find the long version of this video anymore iam sad

You are great

Hi Mike how can I contact you please

how many questions did the computer stop on you

How to get 60 days plan pld

The rhyming part made me think of happy Gilmore

Clang association.. sounds like the recent songs lyrics

Wt is hesi and Ati

schizophrenia and schizophrenic behaviors and bpd terrify me. I have bipolar 2 and it's horrid, I can't fathom how much they try to escape their damn mind.

Omg some of this sounds like autism symptoms

I always feel like songs have a secret message just for me lol

U r Love Gem 💎 ♥️

Imagine if beings, who looked just like us, appeared on this planet, but they were 100's of times smarter. If they presented themselves as regular people to psychiatrists today, but spoke of things that are beyond our human understanding, the psychiatrists would in an instant be absolutely certain that these people were completely detached from reality, and were speaking nothing but total nonsense. Meanwhile, the psychiatrists claim to be in touch with reality, even though they obviously are not. If you are in touch with reality, then obviously you know of what it is that you are in touch with, thus you are not in need of any physics educations since the physics of reality are blatantly obvious to you, since you are in touch with reality.

Yes these are are correct behaviors and symptoms. A patient will never be given a Rx of lorazepam even though it works, so forget that. Haldol is not that effective and forget Geodon. A person with schizophrenia in a paranoid state will Not listen to a word you say! Always give them food and drink that are sealed… I know this because I live with someone who is schizophrenic 😞

I’m not sure if im skizofrantic but I seriously think I am but I know I won’t do anything about it im alone in this world and no one seems to like me cause im different I always been laughed at im surprised my hair isint white

1:50 Will giving the patient Pewdiepie's catear headphones soothe the patient to a greater degree?

4:45 most rappers today

All I know is schizophrenia hurts and I won't be here much longer

wow

Try to stay away from those who have schizophrenia, unless you are a doctor or nurse aware of it

Will you ever understand that the medical professional is extremely delusional.. not the patient...

Schizophrenia say Patricia

To be fair, we are being spied on by the government 🤷🏽‍♂️

$3,000,000 say meatballs. schizophrenia
