Can you recognize when it's your retardation acting up, if so, how often?
>>768957594
>Can you recognize when it's your retardation acting up
Yes, but not super frequently. It's more often that I'll realize that my retardation was acting up afterward.
>if so, how often?
I'd say about 60-70% of the time, if I'm just guessing.

What's the best way to protect yourself from Jesuit semen nuclear bombs?
Also, how does the illness manifest for you?
>>768958368
>What's the best way to protect yourself from Jesuit semen nuclear bombs?
>Jesuit semen
I think it's a sin to masturbate in their religion. Problem solved.
>Also, how does the illness manifest for you?
I assume you're referring to the symptoms I experience?
The main things are:
Hallucinations, both auditory and visual. Although the visuals are less common.
Severe anxiety and paranoia attacks, often unprovoked. (These also cause hallucinations)
Bouts of mania and depression with large portions of "numbness" in between.
The occasional catatonic attack.
There's more, but those are the big things.

hey man, since its topic related, maybe you could give me some advice?
i've had a traumatic event a couple of years ago, and started hearing voices. coulndt really understand what they said. i just heard distressed and angry whispers, plus wheeping. At first i heard them almost every night, but now a days its mostly just once or twice a week Never told anyone before or seeked helped, and the voices don't really bother me anymore since i've trained myself to tell me that they are not real. Should i still find a shrink, or not?

Hello, Anon.
>maybe you could give me some advice?
I'll give it a try.
>had a traumatic event
>started hearing voices
>distressed and angry whispers, plus wheeping
This is not good, Anon. You've clearly got unresolved traumas. I don't know what happened to you, but you really need to sort it out.
>trained myself to tell me that they are not real.
I'm guessing that's also how you dealt with what happened to you those years ago?
>Should i still find a shrink, or not?
I'm sorry, I cannot answer that. Only you can.
Is it in your best interest to see one? Probably, given the information you've given me.
But, at the end of the day, it's a choice you need to make for yourself.
Is it true that schizophenia can be a jail if not hell for someone to live with it.
Also my boyfriend ex claimed that she was schizophreniac (wich is obviously a lie for many reasons but too boring to explain) what would be a good way to proove that she's just a lying attention seeking whore bitch ?

Yes, very much so. Like being trapped in someone else's head.
>Also my boyfriend ex claimed that she
>Boyfriend
>she
There are some inconsistencies in your story, Anon.
>what would be a good way to proove that she's just a lying attention seeking whore bitch ?
Take her(?) to a shrink. There isn't much you can do yourself, unless you're a trained clinical psychologist.
Did she ever describe any of her symptoms to you? Why do you think she's lying?
>>768962687
>thanks man.
You're welcome.
>maybe i'll save up some cash and look for one
Hope it all works out for you.
>>768962687
>inform yourself about scizo
>ask her about her symptoms
This is a very minimalist way of going about it, and not very accurate.
>She claim to hear voice like "all the time".
>Actualy did seek a profesional and I'm aware less than 10% of schizophreniac has voices hallucination and that they don't actualy hear them all the time.
>I'm not allowed to actualy talk to her because my boyfriend would break up with me
>She doesn't do any therapy or take any medication.
>All this "schizophreniac" shit piss me off 'cause she uses a real issue to blame the fact that she wasn't really her for her ex (my boyfriend)
>Also my boyfriend ex claimed that she
>Boyfriend
>she
Boyfriend's ex. Is it that hard ? She. Boyfriend's Ex. She . My boyfriend's ex is a girl. Jesus
Forgot why I left this rat hole, everyone here is fucking autistic .

If shes bullshitting its an easy first step to get an idea
>>768963074
anyway the wind blows
>>768962993
It sounds, from what you said, that she probably does actually have Schizophrenia.
>I'm not allowed to actualy talk to her because my boyfriend would break up with me
Is your boyfriend talking to her? If so, break up with him.
Your issue isn't the ex GF, it's your current bf.
>cause she uses a real issue to blame the fact that she wasn't really her for her ex (my boyfriend)
That's a legitimate claim.

When it's written that poorly, yes it is.

op are you a boy and do you want to do lewd stuff on skype or discord
>>768963158
>If shes bullshitting its an easy first step to get an idea
Not really. Spotting bullshit in someone who's potentially mentally unstable is not easy.
She could have seemingly inconsistent stories that could all be true.
The fact of the matter is psychotic disorders are NOT easy to deal with for any party.
>>768963823
>op are you a boy
Yes.
>and do you want to do lewd stuff on skype or discord
I know literally zero things about you. Why would I do lewd things with you?
>>768964020
i don't know, you don't have to commit to doing lewd things it's just what i have in mind and you're a boy and you're like... schizo and stuff. I think I actually like that. I can tell you more if you want.
>>768957375
Are you able to hold a steady job? Do you hallucinate voices and demons and stuff?

litterally what part of any of that made you so sure?
>>768964138

Well, I don't commit lewd acts with bois. So if you're a boi, that's out of the question.
But, you can add me on Discord if you'd like to just chitchat: Laxeris#4748
>>768964207

No, I'm a dirty neet.
>Do you hallucinate voices and demons and stuff?
Voices, yes. Demons, no.
>>768964458
>what meds do you take?
None. I avoid all medication, even simple things like Tylenol.
>litterally what part of any of that made you so sure?
What makes you think I'm sure? Because I'm not. Thus my usage of the word "probably".
>She claim to hear voice like "all the time"
This is one reason.
>She doesn't do any therapy or take any medication.
Also common Schizophrenic behavior.
>she wasn't really her for her ex
Common among higher functioning Schizophrenics.

Curious because I have a few friends with Multiple personalities that just hate the effects it has on their personality.

This is a big reason for why I don't take any antipsychotics.
I also just don't see the need to take them. I'm able to manage without

Yep, that's me.
>>768967791
>Paralyzed by fear that I'll never fully learn my new hobby
The only reason you wouldn't be able to learn it is if you held yourself back, you know?
>I tried to show up to the last thread but sadly came after you left
Well, at least you made it this time.
>>768968094
I know, I have a pretty bad habit of holding myself back whether by self doubt or depression fueled laziness
>>768968346
>I have a pretty bad habit of holding myself back
Well, you've identified a part of your behavior as bad. So, why don't you alter it?
As the old adage goes, realizing you have a problem is the first step to fixing it.
>>768957375
Do your audible halucinations manifest as actual words and phrases or are they more obscure like you thought you heard something?
>>768969121
>Do your audible halucinations manifest as actual words
They are often real words that are jumbled up into meaningless sentences.
>or are they more obscure like you thought you heard something?
They also do this. Sometimes it's like someone whispered something far away and I didn't really hear what they said.
>>768969253
I hear things sometimes that are kind of jumbled and mumble like. I am diagnosed manic depressive but I have read that the difference between that and schizophrenia are very similar. I also refuse to take meds because I become very aggressive with outbursts of anger no matter what I take. Do you ever have thoughts of suicide? Do you act out in sexually perverse ways? So many more questions.
>>768960148
We all die. Being mortal doesn't offer any alternative. Other than that, you were free to give your share of attention like you did. What would you have done otherwise? It seems, you were in need of OP, to be completely yourself today. That said, I'm closing my expression of attention, that I was giving to your post. (I couldn't have done so, if you weren't, so I needed you, too. Isn't that some kind of crazy?)
>>768957375
the weirdest shit have you ever think about or done
>>768957375
were you ever abused sexually or taken advantage of when you were a child?
>>768969578
>I have read that the difference between that and schizophrenia are very similar.
Yes, they're quite similar. They're both psychotic disorders. So they both suffer from psychotic episodes.
The main differences are that Bipolar is more of an "emotional" psychosis. Always either depressed or manic.
Whereas Schizophrenia almost always has all emotions removed. Except for neurotic emotions, like anxiety, paranoia or fear. But, the manic-depressive cycle is also present in Schizophrenia.
>no matter what I take.
Have you been on a lot of different medications?
>Do you ever have thoughts of suicide?
Quite frequently, yes.
>Do you act out in sexually perverse ways?
I don't act out, but I do have the desire to quite often.
>So many more questions.
Fire away.
>>768969913
>the weirdest shit have you ever think about or done
That's a really tough question to answer.
>>768970105
>were you ever abused sexually
Nope.
>or taken advantage of when you were a child?
Nope.
>>768962630
Something like ...

I have taken quite a few different medications I feel almost like taking the meds makes me angry. I don't know the real reason for my outbursts. They are usually short lived and I am over "it" quickly. But I leave a path of destruction behind me. I may very well be just bipolar, but I never really gave the auditory hallucination any attention because I just brush it off like it didn't happen but it happens quite often. It is usually negative and always directed at me. But they are usually muted but coherent. not just a jumble of words. I also have other emotions like I love my son so does that exclude me? I do find it very hard to empathize with others or love others in the way I do my son. do you feel happiness or love?
>>768968663
I've been trying and making some progress
it's hard though
>>768971506
do you ever look up youtube videos of other people with schizophrenia?
>>768971506
>Time to delete them all!
Good thing I saved them all!
>>768971632
>I may very well be just bipolar
Manic Depressive is essentially bipolar.
>so does that exclude me?
From what?
>I do find it very hard to empathize with others
I think that's just common among people who have mental disorders.
>do you feel happiness
Yes, but not for any good reason. I'll just become happy for a few days like everything is okay. Then it'll just go away.
>or love?
I have experienced it. It's not a common emotion though.
>>768971789

As long as you're trying that's all that really matters.

If it wasn't hard, it wouldn't be worth doing.

Hey Anon!
To answer your yesterdas question, my first language is German, though technically being of Italian nationality. Also thanks for your wishes :).
Didn't expect to see you here today. Seemed a bit masochistic at first, but reading through, it seems again, that the surrounding craziness prefers to stay outside, more or less.
>>768972662
i did find this one channel of this teenage girl crying in all of her videos talking about schizophrenia and how the angel Gabrielle visits her.
also if you had to give up your continence in order to cure yourself of schizophrenia would you?

Back in highschool this one girl get ask "Are you alright anon?" Now anytime I get really stressed I hear her in my head

I wasn't going to make a thread today, changed my mind though.
>Also thanks for your wishes :).
You're welcome.

It does seem to. I'm not sure why but it never really feels like /b/ in these threads.
>>768974050
>i did find this one channel of this teenage girl crying
I think I've heard of this channel. Never seen it though.

No way.

Have you ever smoked weed? Heard that fucks schizophrenics up
>>768975119
>I figured I was too slow for you to see that
I use an app to browse 4Chan, periodically fetching new posts, so I could read it later. Have seen the short film, you've linked, and quite like it, thanks on that.
>My second favorite language.
I bet ;).
>but it never really feels like /b/ in these threads.
An experrience, I'm fascinated by.
If I were a gamer, I probably would have tried, to contact you on discord (which I do not have installed - but at least, I know, that I could find you there).
>>768976474
>Have you ever smoked weed?
Yeah, I smoke on occasion.
>Heard that fucks schizophrenics up
It can trigger psychotic episodes. If it doesn't trigger one it tends to make me feel better though.
Have you or any other schizophrenic person have "positive" hallucinations, ie voices/personalities that try and help you in day to day life?
Are there any games that you like, and do you have a steam account? I added you on discord. I'm Ghost Dice.
Do you ever feel like people are watching you and do you feel like you're arguing with yourself?
>>768976653
>so I could read it later.
Oh, that's quite the smart way to go about it.
>Have seen the short film
I really like that film. It's such a good little animation.
(here it is for anyone else wondering)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vmPvjZKBNYY
>I bet ;).
What makes you say that?
>An experrience, I'm fascinated by.
I am too. It's always been like that here. I can't figure out why it is though. Everyone keeps saying it's because of me. But, I don't see it.
>If I were a gamer
You don't need to be a gamer to use Discord. lol
It's a really good all-purpose chatting program, akin to Skype.
>which I do not have installed
You should install it. I'm sure we could have some fun just chatting.
>>768976712
>Have you or any other schizophrenic person have "positive" hallucinations
I have had a few, but they're quite rare.
>>768977135
>Are there any games that you like
My favorite games are the Dark Souls series.
Followed by Amnesia, and Penumbra.
>and do you have a steam account?
Yep, it's on my Discord.
>>768977197
>Do you ever feel like people are watching you
Yes, quite often. I look over my shoulders a lot. Even when I'm just sitting at my desk.
>nd do you feel like you're arguing with yourself?
All.

I literally will just sit and argue with myself.

>>768960148
its probably more of a coping mechanism
>>768977329
>What makes you say that? What makes you say that?
General disbelieve in its popularity, which obviously has nothing to do with you, but seems to be strong enough, to override my impression, I got from your words. No distrust, more or less an outcome of insecurity in form of a (should have been) joke.
>I can't figure out why
Not intending, to negate your personal afford, it might also have an impact, that those, not facing their own craziness, are not only those to fear most, but also those, who unconsciously fear to see themselves, avoiding any potential mirror (like these threads could easily been seen as).
>I'm sure we could have some fun just chatting.
That's why I made a note about your nick ;). Actually, my phone is a bit oldschool and constantly out of free memory, but we'll see.
>>768972662
I've been doing pretty well so far
Spent about 1/3rd of my time awake today studying for my classes and the hobby. Still not good enough though, I need to do better.
>>768979386
>General disbelieve in its popularity,
Makes sense. It is one of those languages that can come off harsh and scary. That's the beauty of it though.
>avoiding any potential mirror (like these threads could easily been seen as).
I've never thought about it like that.. That actually makes a lot of sense.
>Actually, my phone is a bit oldschool and constantly out of free memory,
I know that feeling all too well. I used a super oldschool phone for the longest time. Couldn't even use the most basic of apps.
>but we'll see.
Here's hoping.
Hi anon. I'm diagnosed with schizoid personality disorder which I'm aware that it's quite different from schizophrenia. I also haven't read anywhere that schizophrenia can manifest from SPD, but I feel that scenario may slowly be on the way for me. I'll occasionally hear quiet talking, but I'll hear a loud bang like a door closing quite often. Very rarely I'll see some shadowy type figure in the corner of my eye, and even more rarely directly in my FOV. What are your thoughts on this?
>>768979480
>I've been doing pretty well so far
That's good to hear.
>Still not good enough though, I need to do better.
All in due time, Anon. Don't try to rush it.
>>768980665
>Hi anon.
Hello.
>also haven't read anywhere that schizophrenia can manifest from SPD
There's some papers floating around that say SPD is the "precursor" to Schizophrenia.
>What are your thoughts on this?
Those aren't good signs, Anon. It could just be intermittent psychotic episodes, it could be something more. I would keep an eye on it. If you notice things getting worse I'd recommend seeing your psychologist.
Couldn't hurt to get yourself rechecked, if you're worried about it.
>>768980351
Will be off in a few minutes. Hope you'll have an acceptable evening. Will have a closer look on discord tomorrow.

>>768982929
>why not?
It's just trading one bad thing for another.
Akin to using meth to stop your cocaine addiction. Albeit a bit on the extreme side of an example, the premise still stands.
Even in a perfect example where the trade-off always benefits me, say: "If there was a perfect cure for Schizophrenia, that had no ill-effects, would you take it?"
I probably still wouldn't take it. As most people with some abnormality would not as well.
The reason for that is quite complex. It goes a little something like "If I remove part of who I am, then who am I?"
The notion of a perfect life doesn't exist. But, this is my life. I couldn't have it another way and still be me. It's just not possible in my mind.
>>768983268
>because then what would he use as an excuse to constantly ask for attention?
That's quite the superficial reason, Anon.
But, if I really was just an attention whore as you say. Couldn't I just come up with another reason to get it?
>>768957375
Hey you're here again, and for so long thank you!
Did you use drugs and was it related to your mental condition?And did you start to believe in "weird shut" like that aliens abducted you or similar stuff?

It hasn't been that long.

I have, and do. I don't, or haven't used them with any sort of frequency. I've always been an off and on kind of smoker. (weed is my go-to)
I'll smoke for a day or two then stop for a week or two, etc.
>and was it related to your mental condition?
I don't believe so. Though, it is entirely possible that it is.
>And did you start to believe in "weird shut"
I do believe in some fairly weird shit, if I do say so myself.
Most notably, that I am not from this universe.
>>768983993
>Can you use the carpool lane without being fined?
I don't have a drivers license, so I'd get put in jail probably.
