I understand what you mean. My feeling, though, is that the only thing necessary to identify or "label" are the symptoms themselves, rather than to focus on the diagnosis and group the patient from there with everyone who carries the same diagnosis. I've found that by focusing on my symptoms, I've completely been able to treat myself of BPD, as I no longer fit the DSM criteria. Once you start working on the symptoms, the underlying thinking patterns reveal themselves, and it's like a snowball effect where you get better and better, faster and faster with each symptom you knock out.

I'm not validating distrust, they don't like being lorded or told, neither because that's nerve-wracking because psychology shaped their ethics. Depression=suppression/suppressing Depression=suppression/suppressed. Fear/nervousness of/about charisma, criticism~ (hopelessness, hopeful~) In summary, doubling worries while worries percieved are potential compulsions which validate paranoia which are potentially nerve-wracking causing or justifying (validating) painfully nervous.

@Snaggle Toothed Injun White Pride No Guilt No Shame no no no, that's not what I'm saying. I'm completely for creating names for diagnoses based on the symptoms. What I was referring to was the method of treatment OF those diagnoses. For me and many others, the treatment itself can become overwhelming and due to stigma even within the mental health field, it can seem unmanageable or impossible to treat when you are thought of as just a diagnosis with no way out. The best course of action in my experience is to look at the diagnosis as a guide for treatment based on the individual symptoms, instead of clutching onto the diagnosis, which can feel like a life sentence when it doesn't necessarily have to be. Taking it one step at a time and breaking it down that way can lead to actual recovery.

I've actually experienced how it is to be sane in an insane place. While I were studying at an upper secondary school here in Norway, two teachers felt something was "off" when they met me for the first time. Months later, they wanted to have me checked "to be safe" and reasons for this were nothing else than me being "a bit too energetic". One thing led to another and I was written up as a mental patient in the nearest mental hospital for children and young adults. I stayed there for almost two months (which is the max time you can legally be there), and they didn't find any particular mental disorder but still settled with paranoid schizofrenia. Never once while I was there did I say anything about hallucinations (which I know is the most common effect of being schizofrenic) and I behaved like I normally would anywhere. For 6 months I used an anti-psychotic drug called abillify and it REALLY messed up my life. They said I was sick in my head and soon I actually felt sick. I was hit with a mild depression which I fought off myself. But it still pains me as I was medically sane and still had to take drugs meant for those who are actually sick.

I have suffered with depression and have been diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome, and it's horrible feeling like you can't open up about it to your friends and family. People don't judge if you say you have a physical illness, so why should this not be the same for mental illness?

Just because I don't look sick doesn't mean I am ready for river rafting.

How is Crash Course Psychology supposed to be "more responsible"? This is no different then a lecture given in a college psychology class.

+Nika Dare Been there, the mental healthcare system is a sick joke in desperate need of a serious overhaul and radical paradigm shift. As it stands, it is repugnant in many, many aspects. To practitioners you are, by necessity, a medical object, not a human being. And to top it off, if you are severely wronged as the result of treatment, you are merely chewed up and spat out by the system, left alone to deal with the consequences while your practitioner gets to laugh about it all the way to the bank. Psychotropic medications that I wasn't able to understand wholly at the time fried my brain to a numbing crisp, for one; the negative impacts my experiences within the mental healthcare system have had stretch far and wide, affecting relationships with family, with friends, with strangers, with myself, with the things that used to bring me joy, and with the things that used to bring me pain. There are unbeatable teams of scientists, ethicists, and lawyers there to support the judgement of mental health practitioners, but in the end there is no one there for you. It all represents a cold, soulless machine that refuses to question itself, following with blind faith its own conceptions and constructs. It's been years and I'm still reeling. I have the desire to write about this in greater detail one day, as to reinstate and propagate the notion that no institution should ever be completely trusted by the individual, and we must all keep ourselves sharp and harshly critical in order to help maintain a greater standard, for the sake of all people. If nobody points out what is wrong at all, then anything that could be done can be thought of as right, in a given situation. I would write it now, but alas, not enough time has passed, so the pain from those experiences is still there, and I refuse to allow it to potentially tarnish the quality of my writing. I will admit that I am predominately biased as of yet, but that will change in due time, for time heals all wounds, and at that point I will be able to more soberly engage all the concepts entailed with a stronger backbone of reason. For now, though, I'm still healing.

Wait.... but Adhd isn't suppose to get worse.... the effects it has on your life can definitely get worse but it itself shouldn't get worse :|... Maybe I was informed wrong but I'm 99% sure it doesn't get worse. Also, yes there are special snowflakes who are annoying in so many situations. But just because you do research on something that you find might apply to you doesn't mean that you automatically apply to that. I do find that the diagnosis of something can be crippling though as well. Or even thinking about the potential of it being true can have it's effects. But I digress, why assume people are trying to be special snowflakes :(. They might actually have problems... and even if it's not adhd it might be something else. Just because you don't have it doesn't mean you're not struggling. Although if are saying something like homework is boring so I have adhd.... you're annoying And I just realize I'm suppose to be doing homework... why am I even here :|..... bye....

This crash course was very thorough and easy to understand. I definitely learned a lot about the history of the DSM just by watching this 10-min video. Thank you!

6:58 EXACTLY This is my absolute favorite explanation of what mental health is. I want to share this a million + more times. This needs to be common knowledge... I definitely learned a few things from this ..

9:09 This is a very crucial point about our cultural outlook on psychological disorders. A lot of people don't come forward to seek the treatment they need to get better because they fear the apprehension society has against people with such problems. Meaning people don't feel safe coming forward about it in the public eye, especially in today's world where people fear who'll be the next mass shooter in the nation. It's why I felt extremely afraid to be open and honest with my campus therapist, due to fear of being diagnosed with something, and being locked up in a looney been like they showed and being forgotten about.

When I was little I was mis-diagnosed with ADHD, resently it was discoverd that the drug they wanted to put me on caused guy to grow brests. In that instanse I am glad my mother is paranoid about drugs.

I loved this I’m bi-polar and was in treatment for 4 years and I’m so happy this is a thing ugh I love crash course

This literally blew my mind. Just goes to show how far we have to go with understanding mental illnesses.

I went into a mental hospital after a mental breakdown in middle school where I was suicidal. even after I no longer felt suicidal, got better with therapy, and requested I wished to return home, they still kept me there for maybe 5 days longer. they kept playing mind games with my parents, bringing up complicated unnecessary paperwork, and asking me the same questions over and over. the nurse even looked me in my room and screamed over and over "this is all your fault!!" through the looked door because two other patients got into a physical fight over a sharpie marker I was using. later I went into schooling with this program and I was trying to go back to public school because they weren't educating me but they kept holding me back from transferring. its a known thing to anyone who has been hospitalized that you always stay at least two weeks, if you're lucky.

As someone who suffers from mental illness I love this video and the way it does away with the all too common stigma and stereotypes of mental illness. I think watching these videos on mental illness should be required. If they were, perhaps the world would be a better place, and people like me wouldn't feel the need to hide and feel ashamed of their mental illnesses, and/or refuse to seek treatment for them.

I'm loving this channel! So many subjects being taught and discussed!

I love watching john and hank. They are really interesting and I feel like I can learn alot just by following along with their videos. Keep up the good work!

cellogirl11RW They did a video on depression and bipolar disorder. I didn't think it was very good though. They completely failed to mention psychotic symptoms in bipolar, and I'm not entirely sure, but I don't remember them discussing mixed episodes either. I also think it's odd they put bipolar and depression in one video, and schizophrenia and dissociative identity disorder in one video. It would make more sense to make a more extended video on depression, and then put bipolar and schizophrenia in one vid since they are related. I just think it's weird that they put schizophrenia and DID in one video. They are often confused, even though they are very different disorders. Why put them together!?

Actually, bipolar disorder and schizophrenia are completely unrelated. Bipolar disorder is a mood disorder, and schizophrenia is a dissociative/psychotic disorder.

A lot of my diagnosis was based on 1. brain scan and 2. how I reacted to social and traumatic situations basically through relaying my experiences to the psychiatric team, doctors over the years..

I lost the genetic lottery. Depression and anxiety on my mom's side, ADHD on my dad's. Not to mention the history of alcohol addiction in both sides. Without supportive parents, I don't know if I would even be here right now...

Thank you for this, Crash Course team! Education is a really valuable part of reducing stigma, and I'm really grateful.

Thank you Crash Course for helping me for my Psychology A-Levels. This has been both fun and informative

I actually do have paranoid schizophrenia, and I've been excitedly waiting for Crash Course to talk about abnormal psych. I'll be really excited to see what disorders are discussed and in what way. I also totally understand the argument against excessively distributing diagnoses; having that label can make people focus on being "mentally ill". For me, however, I think having the specific diagnostic term actually helped. It allowed me to look at schizophrenia as being a thing that I have, and not part of who I am.

I love your videos so much, it is super interesting and I'm glad you're out education people about these things! It would be great if you could do a video on ADHD! It's something that I think is misunderstood, and I have been targeted with some of this stigma as I myself have been diagnosed a few years ago. A lot of people tell me to just, 'try harder' or 'just focus' or to (and I hate this one) 'just calm down!" It's irritating, and if you could help battle the misconceptions that would be totally awesome!!! Thanks!!!

Thank you so much for this channel, it is one of the best animated, most interesting and informative programs to watch. It is absolutely brilliant in all aspects and although I, like many others I'm sure, are not subbable subscribers it really just brightens our day and lives on whole.

I haven't watched any other videos from you before, but you seem very passionate and engaged with the topic. This appeals to me greatly. Whenever I talk psychology with friends or family (and pretty much anyone who isn't in the field...), I get very passionate and eager. And then I get a little sad and put out when their eyes sort of glaze over, and it becomes more interactive to rant at a wall. Watching this makes me feel a little more invigorated. It's just nice to see someone geek out over psychology like I would.

One of my biggest concerns is how we, as a society, are overdiagnosing hyperactivity and an inability to pay attention. Look, I am in full support of offering kids support, but why not try taking phones away from school settings and homework time? As someone currently in the NYC public school system (entering senior year of high school) I would consider this a big help than to just put everyone on drugs. I'm a supporter of medicine, I've been diagnosed with PTSD and other depression and anxiety, and meds along side therapy have been a life saver, but when you give kids drugs for just being kids and being hyper, that's a huge problem.

You guys do a great job in general, but this one is particularly smart and insightful. The understanding that mental diagnosis and categories of disorders, while mostly constructed in a well-meaning way, can have consequences (and origins) that are as Dr. B says "bludgeons" to force people to conform to societal norms -- that's an understanding that needs to be in the public consciousness. As somebody who works with, knows, and occasionally contributes to the research literature on the psychological well-being of people who claim to experience psychic phenomena, I really appreciate this kind of nuanced thinking; it's really helpful in communicating the complexities of differential diagnosis. Thanks Hank and your team for another great lecture!

man, you're seriously a god send. This is so much more exciting than my 3 hour lecture per week...Excellent work!

Excited for next weeks ep! I can learn about myself as I have an anxiety disorder.

As a med student studying psychiatry material right now, this is spot on :) thanks for the great video, CrashCourse

That whole thing about hearing one voice once becoming more important than weeks of normal behaviour is something I’ve been thinking a lot about recently. I kind of feel like there are some toxic communities online that almost promote mental illnesses? Like instead of saying “you should get help and feel better” they’re saying “everyone has a mental disorder. It’s nothing to be ashamed of.” And this really scares me bc it makes people who have a meltdown over a presentation worth 30% of their grade one time think they have a full blown anxiety disorder and that they should go on meds ASAP to ‘get better.’ Just because you feel sad doesn’t mean you have depression. Just because you feel anxious, doesn’t mean you have anxiety. And I know Hank was talking about doctors in that context but I’ve seen people, and myself too as a bit of a hypochondriac, do it to themselves.

Hank (and cc team) this is great video! I love how you explained this topic because it is often misunderstood.

i think you mean aspergers? aspergers is no longer a separate disorder from autism but in dsm 5 they called it autism spectrum disorder

One of the best episodes yet!!

I would love to see a video on eating disorders and the subculture surrounding them. I think there's something culturally intriguing for discussion in that topic.

Binge watching Crash Course an hour before my Psych final 😂😂 thanks guys!!

Could you do a video on ADHD and dysgraphia

I'd watch at least two minutes of it before- something shiny!

Im doing a Social Studies Access course and watching this highlighted all key points that I have been learning about.. Like the DSM, & the Medical Model to name but a few.. I have subscribed....

I was put into a mental hospital for depression in middle school. They scored our behaviour by giving us 3 points for various categories, taking one point off whenever we wouldn't behave the way they wanted us. The head doctor ended up deciding that instead of just taking one point from me, I was either at 3 points or 0 points. When you scored a 0 in any category, they put you on "restriction," where they didn't let you have any form of fun at all. How exactly was I supposed to get less depressed in that place?

I have my Psychology final on Friday. This video helped a lot. Thumbs up. Thank you and keep making more videos.

I like listening to Hank talk, he's just so intelligent that I feel smarter after listening to him

I like how some of the videos bring up studies I've covered in AICE Psychology. It makes it much easier to study!

Ok, I have a test in 20 minutes on this. I am ready now

I Love this guy!!😍😍

Thank you so much for talking about this

I went through a simple psychology course this year and the main factor of a mental disorder is something that is long term and affects a person's ability to carry out basic daily activities. This appears to be a better way to measure mental disorders in including those mentioned above

the guy on the video is cool I like his videos hes logical

I know how that feels. I have a disorder. It's not as awful as having schizophrenia, but mine can be annoying. Attention Deficit Disorder. Perhaps you've heard of it. It means I have trouble focusing, retaining information, and forgetfulness. I think I have it on a medium level since I can't focus on the teacher for the life of me, and I forget stuff a looot. I hope we can teach society to understand mental disorders better.

I was diagnosed as an eighth grader. ADHD is highly treatable and not even recognized entirely as a disorder. I’m in 2 abnormal psychology classes right now and we haven’t mentioned ADHD once. To say “it’s not as awful as schizophrenia” is a gross understatement

I'm 53 and starting a new career. I hope to be a Chemical Dependency Counselor after this last semester. Last semester I took Abnormal Psychology, the semester before that I had to take Intro to Psychology. This Video would be, or Is a great first day video for people new to this field. This was really fun to watch. I'm really glad to have found this channel and enjoy at least one episode a day. Way to rock the DSM-5!

Today we used this video in a thing called a "youth summit". It really helped shed light on this subject!!

as someone with bipolar disorder with psychotic features i feel like many docs still don't really know where to start. do we start with the mood part? do we start with the psychotic symptoms? it usually ends up being a game of corking up holes that randomly pop up. maybe it's just the docs I've had but I can see the approach change in the future. I feel like it could use a little research. anyone else got similar experiences?

some mental hospitals now are really pleasent and enjoyable and semi helpful

Rosenhan, you troll 2:11

Don't know if anyone will see this, but I'm gonna start working on this episode's closed captions. EDIT: For the benefit of anyone who was about to contribute subtitles, I've already completed mine. :)

Since Rosenhan's experiment was in 1973, it's worth mentioning deinstitutionalization to give some more current context. Today, an individual with mental symptoms who cannot pay for privatized treatment would be hard pressed to find a place that'd hold them for 19 days.

Thank you for educating about mentel health!

You should totally do a crash course or Scishow video on self-harm/ cutting and how it relates to mental disorders. @Hank Green @Scishow @Crash Course

+Jackie Capron that would be like doing a video on nail biting. 1 in 3 people self harm at some point in their lives. It can be a symptom of a mental disorder or it can occur without any mental disorder whatsoever. It is dangerous, but people do it for a variety of self-reported reasons. It has been found to lower blood pressure and heartbeat, and so it creates a subjective feeling of relief. As far as I know that is all that is known for sure about it.

Enough! All people think mental illnesses are limited to self-motivated, depression, and BPD. How about doing a video about homicidal ideation! (no offense)

these videos are the only reason i have a chance of not failing my mental health exam tomorrow

best vlog yet...thanks.

I really do like how you guys tackle this topic...not all but most people think that mental illness cannot be cured but most of illness it can be cured..

How about a show on Sociological Disorders in terms of dealing with the diverse range of people on this planet? How we fail to incorporate the range of people types on this planet into our archaic social structures? No? Just easier to isolate individuals and maintain failing superstructures? Cheers.

Joseph Harrietha Cram it? Like you did in your studies? Whenever someone claims to be an expert in something there is always a retort that comes to my mind that I'll share with you, as I do them. You don't declare if you're an expert in something, you let the rest of the world do that based on your accomplishments. Your ego is your worst trait expressed so far, care to add to that?

I'd like my original comment to stand on it's own, not because I or some particular person expresses it. Right now I wouldn't claim to be an expert of anything except my own opinion and that is what I've expressed. There was a time when I'd have said "Screw this planet, I want to go to Mars." or complained that there are no more landmasses to restart countries on, but considering America wasn't even free to colonize from the start, maybe it's time for me to stop looking for ways to get away from the systems I and so many others are born into and start looking at the causes of these problems rather than scapegoating people who don't act according to plans. Yeah, sometimes criminals cause crimes and sometimes people do show signs that they are radically outside of socially tolerable norms, but there have been enough times in the past when people have looked at the ways they've been treated, the way they treat others, and rethought and restructured those as well. This may very well be the case with what we label as mental disability, mental disorder and chemical imbalances. These things suggest that three is a norm, a static figure that one can point to and say "Here is normal, anything outside this is abnormal." just consider if that were the case at any time in the history of life's evolution on this planet and if some species had been granted the ability to limit it's own diversification. That'd be the end of the story. Well, I don't want this story to end, not with our bodies and not with our minds. There is plenty of neurochemistry just waiting to be done, and keeping everything in our heads to strict limits doesn't afford us the chance to explore our potential. That is only one aspect of this I've considered, more have been made by people more impassioned than myself, but this argument, I feel, does not get enough attention. It's so easy to call anyone who does not agree with us crazy and dismiss their argument before even giving it consideration. Calling into question a person's brain or control over their mental faculties can be akin to a death sentence. Not only do doctors and lawyers force people to say to the world that they are dysfunctional, but they isolate the individuals themselves from the communities they are brought up in. We don't tolerate this sort of behavior when it applies to the color of a persons skin or their sexual preferences, so why for now do we condone it for chemistry that a person was born with? If a person wants to be diagnosed and have their neurochemistry altered by pharmaceuticals, that should be their right. All I ask is that we give more consideration to the individuals, the environments and the repercussions and a little less power and authority to the people telling us our children are born bad while they sell us services and cures that will solve those problems. How is this not something that makes absolute sense to people? We've seen it with religions and we see it in marketing. You convince people they have problems to which you have cures. Well maybe *that* is the problem? It's another form of intolerance. One I personally disapprove of and I know I'm not alone.

I heard voices when I was very young. They stopped eventually on their own though :/
