    What part of it are you thinking about if something stood out more? I haven't rewatched this older video in a while but I've recently been learning more about catatonic states and stupor and other symptoms. Catatonic syndromes turn out to be more common as a whole outside of schizophrenia and psychosis, and another very sad reality is that a lot of black and indigenous people, forced to not have homes by history we don't need to explain here but is just a fact. When seeing people suffering in some corner somewhere and not very responsive, not very aware, but somehow carrying on, I would suspect this is something catatonic now but that's my guess. I definitely did recently read that black people, indigenous, poor people, people without stable homes, and the unhoused with nowhere at all to go, on the street somewhere in a North American or an African city, are overflowing hospital and emergency facilities.

    This is the only video I've found about this subject. It's pretty much my exclusive psychotic symptom, and it started during a huge psychotic break a few years back. It went to the extent that I even memorized the alphabet in numerical order. A 1 B 2 C 3 etc. It's still very present, but it doesn't have any real mystical impact anymore aside from the fact that I'm constantly analyzing numbers and wasting brain power for this weird compulsion. Thank you for the content even if this is really late :)

    Strangely enough we may have stood beside one another for some time unawares... I did wander into a camp at some point, that your comment triggers a memory about.... The Wizard of Oz and Dark Side of the Moon, I know it's been synched outside of Burning Man.... but that's so familiar hahaha. That BM 2002 was my only year visiting, and Howdy Heck it was a strange messed up time. Strangely the actual week AT Burning Man was somehow a strange holiday from what was happening for a couple years up to that point of getting there. In early September that year, when I was supposed to be in my first days of university courses in Canada, instead I was riding by ambulance back to Canada to go straight to a psych ward. Oh MY, the disorganization.. I don't ever tell the full story of what was socially occurring to me in that time; it's just too weird and hurtful to recall and describe, but yes, the green lasers, staying out all night, the happy people.. that Black Rock Desert is quite the place.

    Children don't hold back and I adore it. Grown ups should be comfortable with questions, and be humble enough to say "I don't know..." Then maybe even explore their imagination and ask "how do YOU think it works?" They may be surprised by the switch in attention and then they go from asking to creating.

    I cannot understand your sentences. Too many loops around in my brain, I stopped trying after the second look at your words. Cannot proceed from A to B then to C. This is for sure a KZread video where I am using words to explore a subject deeply. It may be effectively impossible to read too deeply into something from certain open minded, talkative perspectives. It may always be possible for some people to not want to be prompted to think. I generally avoid idioms except to point out something of the idiomatic perspective, because something like "Ignorance is Bliss."

    I started laughing so hard at the metaphor I made out of my brain a few days ago experimenting with audio to MIDI. Know how audio feedback works? Sound out of a speaker into an audio input, and a "constructive loop" that gets loud enough to fry the system with so much vibration. Instead of THAT, after I was done playing some music via audio to MIDI, I put my microphone down, and my speakers started quieting.... But they didn't stop! There was "cross format" feedback!! Sound from speakers was still travelling into the mic, but the computer was processing it in a way that there could be no runaway feedback. But there was a "droning oisy\pleasant chaos"! The way it occurred to me like my very own mind on some personal continuous loop of sound and idea..... I burst out laughing and it was hard for my partner to even understand why I was laughing! Hah!

    In my case I have experienced periods like my brain is flashing repeatedly and scanning fast and spotting them fast. It's like surfaces become surreal, abstract patterns that turn into faces morphing between varied expressions. The emotions seen in the faces can but don't need to match the feelings I have, negative, positive, wanted, or unwanted, etc...

    @bacchushollywood2021 just seeing faces never bothered It happened as long as I ever looked at patterns, like clouds, trees, fabric... Emotions unexamined, therapy not undergone, and human experiences of violence are what I find terrifying. Truly, pareidolia is just seeing faces in things, to me. Terrifying things are what's terrifying to me. Maybe just seeing faces would be enough for some people, but for me by itself it's neutral. I would say it might be more activated when stress is exaggerating symptoms, sometimes. There is so much overlap with experience and impact with symptoms and things just happening. I sometimes wish I didn't see faces in things sometimes, but that's more on a level of annoyance and distraction.

    @bacchushollywood2021 I am absolutely sure I have been in states of unwelcome distress and instability that feel like "the sense of impending doom" which is a term used for some "anxiety" symptoms, or fear and stress due to social and relational crisis, and I have seen faces appear in my perception of a non living object. At times like that, it was unwelcome, while in my memory the (sense of or reality of) distress or crisis was the melding factor of concern. I have usually experienced many symptoms and they change over time. The individual symptoms for me can sometimes persist constantly, but the stress and distress are what really halt and disrupt living activity.

  • @nednednerb
    @nednednerb3 ай бұрын

    Probably depends on where they are emotionally and receptively. Some things are undeniably good to talk about and reflect on, I think, but there is a time and place for conversations. When someone is distressed, there is more immediate concern and emotional support that might be "smarter". But if someone is talking openly, calmly, and you ask if they want to watch something, that could be a better approach. If someone is rejecting the ideas being presented, forcing the idea to be taken in is probably counterproductive, and has been in my own experience of running into stressful ideas or triggers in conversation.

    Stress is real. You sound real, not crazy, to me.. I do not know you, but I still have a sense about your loss. Emotions being complex and actually hard is probably the number one reason for my thoughts ever being 'weird' or 'disordered'. Understanding that real life is complex and hard to sort through, when accepted, is what will keep us sane. All power to you. All peace to you.

  • @nednednerb

    People who have schizophrenia & Tourettes usually both are human, have brains, have Broca speech zones in their brains, and develop a language to speak and comprehend. The symptom name I know most for "mental outburst" is actually _thought broadcasting_ where in my experience, the subject matter and the felt meaning of the subject matter, the emotional terror, anxiety, or frustration of a schizophrenia is all wound up in the experience. In fact, I have heard Tourettes described in a way kind of like you did. Some relevant differences are that the 'outburst' language can also coincide with bodily "tics" and that the 'verbal tics' you speak of very generally do not mean anything at all to the person with Tourettes. Your idea is not not totally off, I'm just aware of some thoughts, questions, and possible answers to the ideas that I got elsewhere before reading your comment!

    I once learned that the form of tobacco, like a strain or related species, originally smoked and used many ways in the Turtle Island would have been probably less addictive and pose less health risk than toxic tobacco agriculture. However, there is no feasible way for a mainstream culture in 2023 to reconnect to that older tobacco without appropriation or exploitation. I never tried it. I am speculating from my own reading. Who knows what I read... Otherwise, in some capacity, "nicotine" might "potentially" do "something" helpful. I don't think it's worth trying anything. It's a "stimulant" right? Need a "boost"? Walking briskly for 5 minutes might be better boosting than a smoke and not hurt your lungs cumulatively. Simply put, comparing the risk of one cigarette with the benefit of one 5 minute walk is more relevant and significant than considering a fringe benefit of nicotine to schizophrenics. Tobacco Industry already argued in the 70s and 80s that tobacco was helpful (probably where you got the idea, ultimately). In 2010s in Canada, the last psych wards were the only places on hospital grounds were people were allowed to smoke. It was considered "more harmful" to stop the smoking which was compulsive. It was actually just very cruel math. The risk of suicide makes having schizophrenia so much worse statistically dangerous than smoking, they said "let him smoke, it's not that bad" --- pure cruelty.
