I want to clarify just in case it came across confusing. Violent crimes are not characteristic of people with schizophrenia or Bipolar disorder what I meant was many people who commit violent crimes have a psychotic illness like schizophrenia or bipolar they are not just bad people born evil or monsters. With medication and therapy we can live perfectly normal lives and for the vast majority of us we are more likely to harm ourselves than others. This video is meant to show how necessary it is that we get treatment not make people afraid of us or make us feel less human. Medication saved my life and many of my friends. Please take yours.

They still do shock treatment, medication wasn't working on a loved one and they suggested it for her recently.

Ah Steph, missed you!! Life has been difficult my side, so I get when people go quiet. You are such a beautiful soul, dangerous or not, you are one of the very few who have the empathy most humans have lost! Love you to bits Steph!

I love you!!! ❤️ Thank you.

I’m relieved that you are addressing these topics and your reactions. I’m not filming right now because of hypomania closing in, but even if I was well these are tough conversations to have. Thanks friend. ❤

Usually I hear that people with schizophrenia are most likely to be a victim and not aggressive towards others

Hi!!!! Yes, I think what I said came accross confusing I meant a lot of people who commit violent crimes have a psychotic illness like schitzophrenia or Bipolar disorder those people are not just inherently monsters or bad people. I definately didn't mean violent crimes are characteristic of all people with schizophrenia or Bipolar, I hope it didn't come accross that way. I'll a pin a comment clarifying that. Thank you. ❤️

Hi Steph, thank you for your Honest Videos. Its sad that there are people who cannot afford medications. Being very interested in Astrology, may I have your DOB, Time of Birth and place of birth, as part of my research in Mental Health. Thanks Steph. You are a natural Honest person

I love your content. Farrah Fawcett, and Ryan O'Neal, their son, Redmond, was diagnosed with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. He stabbed 5 people. Luckily they survived. Redmond, was sent to a mental hospital about 4 years ago. He's still there. Ryan O'Neal, is a horrible father. Those stories can be found on KZread about his other kids, Tatum and Griffin. Joseph Kennedy, father of former president, John Kennedy, was a prick. One of John's sisters, Rosemary, was diagnosed young with what they called mental retardation. Today called intellectual disability. She was slower at learning. She was an embarrassment to her father. The Kennedy, kids were expected to achieve in academics and sports. No room for failure. At around 23 years of age, Rosemary, was forced to have a lobotomy. It left her disabled. Barely able to walk or talk. It altered her personality. There's still way too much stigma surrounding mental disorders. Unfortunately not everyone has a strong support group. Your channel is honest. You share your ups and downs. Thank you for sharing your journey.❤

Thank you, I'm sorry sometimes youtube holds comments for review and so I don't see them unless I filter for that. It's horrible what they used to do to people. Maybe one day there will be an actual cure.

are you an empath too? it is almost like you can feel others' pains .

Lol definitely an empath! It's actually a common personality type but the bipolar disorder makes my emotions super intense and really hard to communicate with others sometimes.

That's a scary topic.

I know it's scary to think about. Once you are in that hospital not knowing when you get to leave it does something to you.
