It genuinely seems that schizophrenia and other psychotic illnesses goes under-diagnosed in Asian communities. Same goes for many of the Natives/Indians (some tribes prefer different words) I’ve met. It seems the infrastructure for mental health just isn’t there and the fact that there’s a stigma to begin with really doesn’t help.

Big hugs dude. I have a friend w paranoid schizophrenia and he hardly contacts me anymore and same for the rest of his friends because his medications make him apathetic to almost everything. It’s sad.

We are in 2023... And still, the schizophrenia remains being misunderstood. If someone with this illness takes meds, people expect you to behave and be cured, as if schizophrenia were like just a flu or a headache. Finding your right medication is the hardest thing I've ever known, what works for one, may not work for others... Nobody can understand how it is to live with this illness until you live with someone who has it. And it is devastating and hopeless. I'm saying this from the bottom of my heart. I so wish this illness, along with bipolar and schizoaffective disorder would disappear forever. How can we live in a world where these illnesses exist? My compassion and best wishes to y'all.

My son's college friend and roommate started hearing voices. He didn't say anything because he thought that everyone did. My nephew the same. Both are getting help and are living wonderful lives. I wish this young man and his family nothing but the best in their futures.

So sad that when he was diagnosed he thought the doctors were just lying to him so nobody would believe what he was saying. What a cruel illness to make people so sick but then part of that illness is making them believe they aren’t sick so they don’t seek help.

This guys one of my favourite people you’ve ever showcased, he really reminds me of my friends and this guy is a fuckin pure soul. Not only is he self aware, he is so smart to the point where it’s almost surreal seeing someone know this much about their own delusions. I’ve never really seen anyone that had this much hindsight I’ve had psychotic episodes as a result of drugs and I can’t imagine having that constantly.

2:25 "I love you, Dad." With a genuine smile and a fist bump that warmed my heart. ❤

i am so glad my mom stayed with me when i was telling her all about my voices making fake facebook accounts and messaging them fucked up shit. but my mom knew i was just ill. and i think it saved my life. if ur schizophrenic out there bro, just know that theres people who know the truth

This is such a beautiful and powerful interview. So much love and respect between the father and son. And such warmth and authentic connection between Chris and Daniel.

When youre in psychosis, it makes sense to YOU. The voices, the being paranoid, the delusions you have, the thinking cameras are everywhere, thinking people are talking about you ,all the signs you see etc... it makes sense to YOU

Dismissive is inaccurate in my experience. It’s more denial and refusal to change their views rooted in ignorant, false narratives on mental health issues being signs of weakness.

Most cultures and specifically people from this father’s generation all over the world share these misconceptions of mental health.

I hated seeing that thick medication being injected into him. Schizophrenia stopped his education in the 9th grade and I can not get over all of the things a young man his age should be doing anything but injections.

I hope the best for you. I would like to say that he’s lucky to be diagnosed this early and treated. My mother lived with paranoid schizophrenia WITHOUT treatment nor diagnosis (hence constant psychosis and delirium) for more than 50 years. She got diagnosed after attacking me during a psychotic episode (I was 15 and alone, shortly after divorce.) but since it has been more than 50 years, in her case, it’s degenerative (physically; brain). To make it worse, she had untreated Psychosis Post Partum (my older brother’s harsh and traumatic birth at 18) and long lived abuse and discrimination. Bc of her conditions she abused his son and my father (who protected me). All of this to say, it could be worse, doesn’t matter, what matter is that your son is getting treated and has your support, and I hope a warm community :)

I have to agree with him. SBSK has truly helped a lot and I mean a lot with my personal schizophrenia. I was born with schizophrenia which is extremely rare, I found out after high school I had it. Something about seeing schizophrenia outside yourself, just has an extremely comforting and humanity effect. I will always be thankful for this. Thank you SBSK, honestly there’s nothing like you. ❤

To help me understand what it is like and relate, to me it seems like religion is a milder form of schizophrenia that shares a source/location in the brain because there are so many similarities... Feeling like you are being watched all the time, hearing messages or voices, talking to invisible supernatural entities that have no physical reality, imagining things you are convinced are real but aren't, being convinced whatever you believe is reality based on no actual evidence, feeling persecuted or becoming angry and defensive when you feel threatened if anyone questions ​or disagrees with ​your beliefs, feeling mysterious or other worldly sensations, feeling sure irrational things are reality and true, even to justifying them with hatred and violent force​. (as in the long history of religious wars and persecution... witch trials, infanticide, jihads, the Inquisition, the Crusades, etc​)​. Whereas schizophrenia originates with internal individual perceptions, religions are mostly fed initially by "sacred texts" external messages, established dogma, and serial brainwashing involving a legendary mythical, but deceased figure. "Cults" are one step removed in that they have a living leader to captivate his followers and can dictate his evolving beliefs as truth over time.

thank you for posting this. my girlfriend recently went through a psychosis episode that was persecutory in nature, where she fully believed me and my family were out to get her along with like anything she saw pop up on her phone. she held me at knife point cause I didn't understand what was going on until it had escalated too far. I was scared for myself but all I could think of was how scared she must be to think that she was all alone in this world and that everyone was out to get her. so I just kind of sat through it and tried calming her down while still being held like that for a few hours. finally, I realized there was nothing I could do to help ground her in that moment so I finally fought back just enough to get the knife away from her so she wouldn't harm herself either and soon after a crisis intervention team arrived. I feel bad just putting this out there but if anything I feel like this is the right place. but um, I'm commenting this because I also need some advice. it's now been almost a month, she's been in a behavorial health center, and I'm trying to understand things so I can learn how to help her if I can at all, or at least learn what not to do. I don't want to diagnose her myself, but for me it's felt like she has bpd but had a persecutory pyschosis episode. she didn't have any hallucinations, just delusions. I'm trying to do all I can to heal myself but also learn from it. I found out I'm autistic as well, at 20. so still figuring all that out as well. if anyone has any advice whatsoever, it'd be appreciated.

Thank you for saying this, no truerwords were ever spoken. May you continue to be happy & well. You have amazing parents, great job to them for their love & support.

I had a bad trauma response, and I’m better now, but I had psychosis for a few months. It’s horrible. But Daniel seems very nice and I’m so happy his medicine seems to be working. His dad seems awesome, too.

@@kanwalraja466 my psychosis was just because of the antidepressant I was prescribed. I stopped taking it and it went away. It’s probably because I was in my early twenties at the time.

I know the feeling about having schizophrenia. It’s hard at times.

Thank you Daniel. You are so articulate. I understand schizophrenia so much better after watching this. Your dad is awesome. ‘Just understand him and help him’. Such simple yet powerful parenting advice.

What a story! Daniel, I wish you the best of your life and I hope this video can helps reach out to those who have the same condition as you.

His father is so amazing!

I wish Daniel and his father all the best in dealing with this. I was recently diagnosed with a mental illness and I’m still in denial, but watching this video and reading the comments helps me know that I’m not alone. I wish there was a cure for mental illness.

DR.AMAN HAS BOOKS ABOUT HOW TO REVERT MENTAL ILLNES & DESORTERS AND HOW TO KEEP YR BRAIN HEALTHY.DONT BELIEVE ALL PSYQUIATRIES ,JESUS CHRIST THE BEST PHSYCOLOGIES & PHSYQUIATRIC

The artwork in the back is amazing

Thanks to Daniel and his Dad. You help me understand more about mental health. I respect and admire both and receive a very warm hug from me. Thank you Chris.

Whatever happened that night, the experience and the trauma of the memory is still real. Regardless if it actually happened or not, it doesn’t lessen the fear and the pain.

Daniel giving you kudos for all the amazing work you do was heartfelt. Thank you Daniel for sharing this. I have a friend who was recently diagnosed with schizophrenia. Hearing your story has helped so much.

What a great guy, and his family is so supportive and wonderful

Omg Daniel, your dad is so freakin' cute! My brother has schizophrenia & bipolar disorder so I can relate as a family member, looking in. Support from loved ones is CRUCIAL! I am sooo grateful your parents were open to learning about your diagnosis and accepted the reality of it, wanting to only help you. I am also aware every culture is different when it comes to mental illness. Thank you for sharing 🙏🏻❤️❤️

His dad holding himself accountable for his previous beliefs is so refreshing

I am tearing up. I see so many people (especially young people) in comment sections of mental and emotional health videos asking: "How can I find help?" "What kind of things can I do to deal with my issues?" "How can I find someone who can help me to understand what's going on with me?" "We do not have a hotline in the place I live." "My [parents/country/ethnic group] do not believe that depression/anxiety/[the concept of mental health ] is real." "... they do not believe that therapy and counseling are useful." "I just want someone to talk to who can understand/help!"

OMG I want the Dad to be my Dad. The love and bond is beautiful. This young man struggling everyday is so much stronger than he understands. Story time. I go to a Pain Clinic every week and there is Rob who I met the first time he was in angry talking to a trashcan. I knew and heard him go, then tell me he was having a bad day! I wished him a better day. Now if he is having a bad day he tells me. It is incredible. I have my own issues so, hearing a fellow human being is so beneficial. Hearing his Dad say he didn't choose it. So true and unfair. 😊

@@sugarsore Awwwe that is sweet. Thank you. I just believe there are so many bad things happening. I bring joy and being silly is a superpower!

this topic really should be bought up more, thank you so much for making this video, looking forward to watching!

Daniel, I don't know if you'll read this or not. I'm so proud of you telling your story, I agree this channel has brought so much information out! Your father is amazing too, I'm so glad you met Chris and shared your story, I believe you will help others without a doubt!! Thank you, Daniel!!

I think this video was the easiest one to understand Schizophrenia. I really liked the League of Legends and the setup. I’m a new player and I really suck at the game, but I’m sure you are really good!

Daniel and his Father… wow. Brought tears to my eyes, what gems of humans. As a 1st gen American born to Indian parents and having mental issues myself, this interview meant a lot.

Its incredible to hear Daniel talk about seeing other people's reaction to his current mood/state and how it is a signal for him to remember to take care of himself. Daniel is obviously a very smart and caring young man. My uncle had paranoid schizophrenia and was fortunate to be able to drive a car, go to the flea market and make friends with the vendors he met there. I know that he never failed to go every weekend to have conversations with people and get out of the house. He said that it was the best way to lift his mood because if he started feeling overwhelmed, he could just say that he had to go because he was meeting someone for lunch.🥰 He figured out clever ways to "escape" if he ever needed to. He promised his mother that he would always take his medicine and we are fortunate that he kept his promise. His mother would wake him up to take his medicine as scheduled whenever he slept passed the correct time.....as his medicine could make him sleepy. All that to say, that don't believe that you will never: drive a car, make friends that you will talk to every weekend, or go to college because you absolutely will do all of these things and whatever else you want to do. You just have to plan a path that fits you, complete with "escapes" if necessary. 💕

I have angelman syndrome and I'm 31 yrs old, I will be 32 in September 4. Alot of struggles in my life. And I live in Panama city Florida.

Love the Jenga tower of frustration, such an evocative description

Daniel thank you so much for sharing your story. I’m am so glad you are doing well and proud of you that your are standing up against this illness. Many years ago my youngest brother started acting strangely. He had a good job but was using drugs. He became very paranoid. Our family tried to help him but we were so confused. After awhile it became clear that he had the symptoms of schizophrenia. He then started to do a lot of damage to our homes and smashed out windows of family businesses and many many vehicles. We tried to get him help but he refused. I found out recently that he passed away. He was 66. He didn’t not live the life he should have had. I loved him very much but I couldn’t help him. I am so happy that your family found a way to love and support you. So great that you were able to find it within yourself to accept their help. May you continue to be well and have the love and support of family and friends. You are not alone. ❤️

That delusion in college that started it all off is heartbreaking omg… :(!!! That is awful.

I am reading a book called “The Collected Schizophrenias” by Esmé Weijun Wang, and it has helped me cope with my previous diagnosis of schizoaffective disorder (I recently learn I am instead autistic). The field of mental health is ever-evolving. Some of the things Daniel talked about in the video I can relate to a lot. I wish him the best!

Daniel is such a kind person.I am so impressed by his noble perspective.

I agree.

What an amazing young man and his Dad too ❤

Thanks for sharing! I have paranoid psychosis but with meds I don’t have symptoms. This was a very helpful video 😊

This was one of my favorite videos on this channel. I can relate with some of his symptoms. Daniel is clearly very intelligent. I worry about him when his parents pass away.

Daniel - I watched your interview. You are VERY brave to share your experiences and challenges with SBSK viewers! I can tell how much empathy and love you have for others who struggle with mental health. You are a blessing and an asset to others! Thank you!

Wow, Daniel! Really proud of you! You have clearly developed a great self awareness in your recovery and I love that you were willing to take the risk of putting yourself out there to try to share your story and help others. That is a wonderful thing, Sir! Thank you for taking the risk. I know this video will help others who are struggling with some of the same issues. ❤

Daniel you are very smart & explained your disease very very good! This was one of the best interviews I've seen explaining Schizophrenia. Your dad is so nice Daniel. Best wishes to you & ur family.
