  1. What can cause schizophrenia I'll tell you. If a person feel like society never accepted them or they feel like they been rejected by everyone. Then that person start to think & reflect on they life. Then they be like damn people really hated me my whole life. So being rejected by society can cause a person to become schizophrenic.

  2. I never had a schizophrenic episode in my life until some guy bought me a drink and hours later I started seeing things and could not sleep, I would see scary looking things in walls like demons and in people.. when I would scratch my arm the feeling would be delayed and wouldn't show up until seconds later and when people would talk the words would be delayed with their mouths. The tv would also talk to me and this was literally after I had a drink from some stranger. I called the police the same night and they tested my blood for drugs and said nothing was found in my system, I was just paranoid. Then, eventually I had to go to the mental hospital because I couldn't sleep for months even when I tried to. This happened in 2018, no schizophrenics in my family or nothing. Now in 2020 back in June the same thing happened some guy bought me a drink and I had another episode and had to go to the mental institution because I wasn't in my right mind, seeing and hearing things. They said I had psychosis and schizophrenia, is it my mind playing tricks on me making me think they did something to my drink or am I actually schizophrenic because I never experienced this ever, the first time it happened I was 19. Now I am 22.

  3. Schizophrenia is not a illness as such. Those who break all laws of nature and follow Patriachial laws in the name of god, religion, sect, caste n marriage are considered NORMAL people. Those who could accept this deviation from NATURE AND GET TOTALLY CONFUSED ARE BEING BRANDED AS SCHIZOFRENIC…

  4. Although this explanation seems correct but some people will disagree with it as they believe schizophrenia is something happens to those who believe they have schizophrenia.

  5. This actually happened to me at 7-9 yrs old. I think it was. I know now I have a way bigger brain and view but back then this week or so I was traumatized and crazy. Something in my mind told me the he was coming. And I was so afraid. I was terrified for hours. He was coming, who? I don’t know. I just said” the little figure .” I cried and yelled like if I were dying . Seriously I was so afraid. Now thinking about it, it’s like I got injected scare injection in me from Batman Arkham night. I was just so scared and did not rest, I was worried. Anxiety. Stress . Sweating . Say the he’s coming . And my mom didn’t know what to do.
    I remember at last I got rid of it and felt a scared relief to final take a deep breath

  6. I kno I should not self diagnose and I am also not saying dat I have schizophrenia, but I have symptoms that u said in video. In school, I always lose concetration and also when I am watching video like this one. I also don't speak a lot and always just think to myself all the time. Thinking too much makes me irritated and antsy. One time my head got so clouded, I was gripping my bed sheets hard where I was laying cos I wanted to punch something… I also forget things from time to time, my expression is usually blank, and I have no friend so I am lonely most of time. Sometimes I spend so long at night just thinking and little noises always spook me and I always hide under my blanket. I literally have no idea what those noises are. I have checked and there is no bug or pest so I freak out. The noise come from under my bed. Maybe I actually do have bugs in my room and I should clean it… Anyways during school I always think someone is watching me! There is character from this show I watch and I think they are watching me and it is really disturbing. Also sometimes when I am passing by my parents room to mine, I think I hear noise coming from parents room even though no ones there. I freak out and think there is a kidnapper or murderer in the house watching me but there isn't. But then after a while I calm down and convince myself nothing is wrong. Humming or pretending to play drum with my pencils calms me down though. I do this during class and am always talking to myself and it is okay. But sometimes it doesn't work and I fidget and twitch because I am really scared and end up destroying computer in impulse (not really, computer is expensive). Also I use my dad computer when I am in school for going to virtual class and doing schoolwork, but also browsing the internet. His computer is on his table and he gets angry when he sees dent there from me hitting the table too hard with pencil lol. He doesn't actually get angry, though I can tell he is. He just tell to stop so I do and just hum and watch YouTube videos instead. I was really freaked out before writing this comment but it help me calm down. Except now I am worrying for different reason, since it is two in the morning and school starts in like four hours and I need to sleep. 🙂 Thank u for stressing me out and depriving me of sleep Ted-Ed! <3

  7. Schizophrenic here,I know I shouldnt give my hallucinations names, so I just call them by what they are. Pink man, Girl, the dolls, the dog, and the terrible noises they make are all so bad. Pink man threatens to kill me and my niece, girl makes a noise like a washing machine with a brick in it, the dolls tell me to hurt myself, and the dog just looks like the creepy pasta dog edit

  8. I think the genetics have an affect on the mental illness is not true because I believe that the way you raise your child or how the child tries to imitate you is how you the child gets it

  9. One day even normal anger will be called a desire if we didn't understood that today's doctors are trying to show normal human behaviour as a disease for monetary benefits

  10. My great-uncle grew up in an age where there was no treatment for schizophrenia and his behaviour led him to becoming ostracised by his family, he killed himself at 50 by walking off the harbor. His body wouldn't have been found if his dog had not stood by the pier barking. I watched this to try to understand him as his story is a painful memory for my grandmother and great-aunt, so I don't want to ask too many questions. He was a deeply troubled man according to my mother and would turn to alcohol often, he never married or had any real relationships, but he was very close with his dog and my great-aunt would try to help him sometimes, so he wasn't completely alone. This video just made me kind of emotional about it, I wish he had gotten the care he needed so that he could have had a good life.

Or is this a coincidence?

  14. Schizophrenia does indeed exist, but sometimes, ppl who are on a higher spiritual level are misdiagnosed with schizophrenia.
    I was misdiagnosed as a teenager. Turns out my “delusions” aren’t so unreal after all.
    More to the story, but will leave it there.
