Your DSM 5 TR series is SO incredibly helpful. I listen to them consistently to help learn the diagnostic criteria in my PsyD program🙏🏽👏🏽

[NeonCicada]

It's not uncommon for people from occult and esoteric spiritual communities to get misdiagnosed with delusional and/or hallucinatory disorders (usually by clinicians without sufficient cultural understanding to make those judgments about their patients).
So, thank you for reiterating the importance of a patient's cultural/religious worldview,
whenever we're attempting to distinguish between a normative experience (for them) -- V.S. a clinically significant pathology.
>----> <----< *X* >----> <----< *X* >----> <----< *X* >----> <----< *X* >----> <----< *X* >----> <----<
Even within my own spiritual community, things can quickly become _exceedingly_ difficult (or even impossible) to bifurcate those experiences into either:
*(A) Personally subjective interpretations* or _[B] Shared objective truths about reality_

This is so awesome and such a compassionate and kind delivery 🙏

Love all the information you share with us on a clear and easy way to understand mental health issues

So sad, thinking that this is how my mother felt with Alzheimers. Constantly corrected, not understood, felt to be a problem, when she totally lived to be anything but a problem. Finally as time progressed, I realized that whatever she said, I could just say “gosh, I KNOW, it IS like that, ” as if in the old days talking in the kitchen with her friends. But we had no training to do this initially. Now I see that the people with some form of schizophrenia (I used to answer the hotline and do intakes at a shelter, so I met many) really could use an affirming “oh i can really relate to that, ” when possible, rather than a stare of incomprehension, because they have enough loneliness and exile already.
We should all be trained from primary school on, that people can be very sincere in their perceptions that differ from our own, and forgetting the self, not taking things personally (as far as possible) and receiving others magnanimously and humbly with love is a great human calling—not debate-team-like efforts at clearing up their mistaken notions. (Unless they are elected officials intentionally pouring forth gushers of disinformation from foreign entities or vested interests, deliberately trying to bring down one’s nation or grift off the public sector…and such persons it appears aren’t interested in counter arguments anyhow.)
Thanks for another humane and wise teaching!

The more comfortable I try to get the more uncomfortable I become. The more I try to get motivated the more tired I get. The more 'answers my brain finds it gets even more confused. Non stop. Hell - nothing more. Life will always be worth it but this diagnosis is incredibly disabling. The health workers around my area fail at explaining it as well

[christinapatz]

Working towards masters MFT - videos are always so helpful. Love your podcasts too

[FalishaOser]

Thank you for these videos! They're extremely helpful in studying for the NCMHCE <3

[ericabedia]

I was hoping whether more videos could be created on how family members can support a loved one with mental ill health. There appears to be a lack of resources for family members.

[lizgichora]

Very helpful refresher learning, highly appreciated. Thank you very much.

[luxykl]

Thanks for your updates! Excellent Presentation!

[lillyfly]

I just really want to thank you for the language you used here as a nonbinary afab person on this spectrum. While I am not in a place where I can transition, I do hope I am some day and while this information about estrogen does worry me, I think I will still pursue hormone therapy and top surgery. If that ever happens I'll try and remember to come back here and tell you how I feel. There is a whole lot more I wanna write here, ironically I am finding it hard to find the words. But I really wanted to mostly thank you for being considerate about what words you use. It's just really nice to know someone cares is all I guess.

[Hjfshuvutd]

I can provide insight as a trans woman with schizophrenia. Before I transitioned a few years ago, i was having really bad symptoms of hallucinations and my sleep was maybe 45 minutes a night. I tried many antipsychotics and nothing helped. When i started HRT, most of my major hallucinations disappeared for a while and i gained quite a bit more control over symptoms. I can see I'm slipping back into an episode lately, so there is a limit. I started at 3mg estrogen with 100mg of progesterone and went to 6mg of estrogen and 200mg progesterone and i definitely feel better at the higher dosage compared to the lower.

[adadove]

awesome. love yr attitude + clarity and depth of info gr8 video :}

[swedishdissident]

Thankyou for a very informative and structured video. I will recomend this to other medical students. Also you have made me make a final decision to specialise in psychiatry. Which I have thought about for a long time.

[grave_alice]

Thank you for uploading this presentation, it was very informative! I'm trying to learn more about schizophrenia due to a loved one. Do you know of anyone online that would be able to answer some questions about it?

[trevorrol]

When my brother told a GP he has one of these disorders she crapped herself. And she was a GP. She was very young and new though.

[musicallessness]

[JasonAdams-yt]
