Hey guys, been wanting to share something from my channel for a while.
I just got around to re-doing my videos and editing them.
This is my video where I talk about my experience with mental illness.
Hope you guys find it interesting.
Also, I would love some questions for a video. Thanks guys!
Ask me anything you want.
I wanted to be able to say I watched it all before I commented, so I did and the video was really interesting. Since I'm trying to deal with what I think might be Cyclothymia or something similar I get how shitty is can be to not be able to properly control emotions. There are days when I'll wake up and just hate something I liked or not want to do what i know I've wanted to do my whole life. And then the next day I'm fine and super into the one thing again. It sounds really dumb when i explain it, like its just mood swings, but I'm past that age now so...?
Anyway, I enjoyed your video, your really well spoken which helps obviously and your story was very interesting, so thanks.
Hey scooby, i can recognize a lot of your past condition in my current state of mind.
wonder if something is sneaking up on me
Ye like others have said I recognise what you said, and other people in other videos I watched subsequently to yours, in me. It's is actually scaring me now, but I shouldn't do that and I should probably talk to a doctor. It's heart-warming to know that you are improving and you can talk about it.

Thanks for watching. I'm glad you found my video interesting. You might want to check into personality disorders if you're worried, but that's not something I'm well-studied on. Thanks for the compliment, I try to work on being well-spoken.
[QUOTE=onebit;43472426]What do you think triggered it?[/QUOTE]
Maybe the fact I got a boyfriend and broke up with him after two months and got depressed, or it could be the drugs I was messing with then.
I really have no idea. My dad developed the condition, well something different, at 41. Although he suffered a couple delusions since he was young.
Great question though, I often wonder if I had done things differently if I would of developed it. It's actually around 5-10% chance I think.

Umm, I showed minor signs of it in my behavior, but not my well-being really. I remember thinking I was schizophrenic when I was 13-14, but I didn't know what it really meant.
Talk to a psychiatrist if you want.

I've watched a couple, rawsammi is the one who motivated me to start. And thanks, I made videos as part of my own personal recovery. It has helped.
