There was nowhere enough meat on that girl to get a choice cut like that.

I need to be diagnosed with schizophrenia by a specialist to get welfare, maybe. I got diagnosed by a general doctor already but it would help if I got tested by a specialist. Any tips on getting that diagnosis?

Also: do you get welfare?

Have you ever experienced any type of hallucinations? What were they like? Did you believe them?

>>2380235
That's exactly what I was thinking when I saved it, actually.
I like pictures like this, though, (people prepaed or packaged for sale/eating) I don't have any more saved since I purged all of my old images.

>>2380248
I just turned 18, you have to be 18 to be officially diagnosed with schizophrenia, I will be going to my therapist again on the 9th. I
am going to be put on anti psychotics.

>>2380254
My parents did, yes. but not because of my disorder, I got no money from the state besides child support from my biological father and mother, which ended because I am a legal adult now.
My old foster parent was very poor and was on food stamps.
I am living with new ones now and they are well off, the only benefits I will receive from the government is help paying for college, if I can go.

>>2380262
Yes, auditory and visual in random bouts. I have episodes that are completely random. The last episode I had was a few months ago.

Hey OP, I'm schizophrenic too. I got diagnosed right around your age, too. 20/m/USA. I've been there, man. How are you doing with it?

My old psychiatrist prescribed me Solian (amisulpride), a med used to treat schizophrenia.

I only have generalized anxiety disorder, do you have any idea would she would prescribe that to me?

Do you have like reoccurring characters? If so please tell us about them
Sorry if that's a dumb question I'm not very educated on schizophrenia.

>>2380303
I have yet to be diagnosed properly because I've only recently got into therapy and they need to do more tests on me to confirm. I show all the symptoms and I am certain I have it. My biological parents both have schizophrenia (as well as bipolar disorder, narcissism, and my mother is a compulsive liar), yes, I know they shouldn't have bred.
I show the signs of progressive schizophrenia, or schizotypal personality disorder, which may be the case, since it is extremely common for the offspring of two schizophrenic parents.

>>2380308
Small doses could help with depression. I was recommended risperidone, which helps with the paranoia and fear.

>>2380310
No, there aren't any humanoid figures that I see/hear. All of my hallucinations are inconsistent for the most part. The only clear thing I have heard was my name chanted to me by voices, otherwise it is just whispering. It never really bothers me, as in I believe it to be some strange entity, but a few months ago I woke up in the middle of sleep to a loud voice that wasn't there.
With my visual hallucinations, I see bug-like creatures, geometrical shapes, and sometimes claws/hands or walking feet under objects. The only coherent episode I had was when i was a lot younger, in which I believed I saw a floating creature, unlike all of my other hallucinations, this lasted for a long time (about 15 minutes of visual stimulation instead of just a sudden one)

>>2380368

OP, I'm the 20m schizo. I'm not on any meds, even though I still find myself conversing with people who aren't there every now and then. I'm not on meds because I absolutely hated the effects they had on me just with the risperidone, and after you start taking those meds for a while they start you on taking other meds along with it until you're downing a drug cocktail every day. It's different for everyone, and some people really are happier with medication, but I personally would rather deal with the hallucinations and paranoia(I'm undifferentiated, residual now, I did have characters and things).

>>2380426
I was not planning on taking the medication at all for this reason.
It's not so bad, I can deal with the hallucinations, the only thing that bothers me is the extreme paranoia. I can't sleep or talk to others because I am so afraid of them. I said I would go to therapy for a few months and see if I improve, if my fear resides or I at least I learn how to deal with it.

I'm glad there are people who don't want to go to drugs as the first answer. Medications scares the fuck out of me and it seems, stupidly enough, like a personal failure on my part, since I would never learn how to deal with myself by myself.

>>2380449

Yeah, I share that thought process! It's the same reason why I don't smoke pot or anything. I hear a lot of people saying it calms them down when they really need it, but I'd rather learn to calm myself down. My parents really, really pressured me into taking the medication(they're both on lexapro or something to deal with depression), so I ended up agreeing to take it, but then lying about it and just dumping it into the toilet when they weren't looking. I had to get really creative with how to dispose of the stuff, I learned to talk with fluids in my mouth for extended periods of time so I could spit it out later. It took me longer than a year to come clean that I wasn't taking the medication, and I did that because I had to pick up an $800 prescription one month that made me feel absolutely horrible for trashing. Thankfully I got the therapist to convince them I was fine without meds. You can learn how to deal with it, OP!

>>2380368
Do you jerk off to this shit?

>>2380308
here

>>2380368
So, I am safe? My parents aren't schizophrenic but my family has a history of mental illnesses/alcoholism/suicides.

And to be frank, I had a weird hallucination a year ago (saw 3 shadows dancing above a forest, it lasted like 10 seconds so I'm sure it wasn't my eyes playing tricks on me).

Moreover, I used to be paranoid as fuck back in middle school, everytime someone laughed, I thought they were laughing at me. I would also hear my parents talk shit about me when they were in the same room as me which doesn't make sense because they are loving parents.

And before all that shit, I would do weird stuff : I "had" to touch a doorknob the same amount of times with both of my hands otherwise I would be pissed off.

Thankfully I got over that and the paranoia. But I'm still scared I might end up crazy one day.

I've been scrolling past that picture for a while now, ignoring it since I glanced at it and recognized that it had an anime girl on it and instinctively blocked the information from being processed since anime sucks, but after giving in and actually looking at it I thought about it and realized I would totally eat human meat if it was sold legally, I've eaten cat and dog meat just for the novelty of it.

Anyway, uh, let me think of a question for you. Do you get pissed off when retards think schizophrenia means multiple personality disorder?

What are the initial signs of becoming a schizophrenic? Lately I've been having sudden feelings of whether I and everything around me really exist following light headedness. If it helps, I have an aunt who's schizophrenic.

>>2380700
Schizophrenic people usually aren't afraid of what others think of them like that, the social anxiety comes from literal fear of the people, as if they are going to hurt them.
Schizophrenics are can't comprehend or care about what others think is socially acceptable, they can learn it through behavioral therapy and by emulating their peers and so on. You have grown out of it,like you said. You don't really grow out of schizophrenia, ha.

I think you have anxiety. Maybe you use the odd behavior as a coping mechanism, to ease your mind.

Also, there are a lot of unconventional treatments and medications that can relive the symptoms of mental disorders that may not seem appropriate (like electro shock therapy being successful to treat major depression.)

I think you are fine but a little worried. Go to therapy and talk about it and see what a professional has to say.

>>2380720
I was wondering how it tasted too. I like guro images for the novelty of it. Packaging and drowning, torture devices, they make me feel odd, kindof anxious and afraid but it isn't too corny with all of the blood and sex.
I heard human tastes a lot like pork, but also it's not very safe to eat since humans can pass on diseases very easily to one another.

No, they don't really think that. Most people assume schizophrenia is some cool disease where you see stuff that's not there. Vivid and meaningful hallucinations, extreme intelligence, and so on. The fail to realize that there is always a fear, lack of interest, and usually depression and frustration.

>>2380797
>>2380720
LOLOLOL I'm totally gonna eat human flesh so DARKKKK. I'm like a psycho you see ? lololol everyone tells me that at the highschool. I've such a dark personnality you see.

xoxo anonzzzz

>>2380665
No, not at all, I just find it elicits certain emotions in me. Kindof makes me feel strange and nostalgic for some reason.It's also interesting to look at.

>>2380813
I don't seriously consider eating humans, it only interests me in a strictly factual way.
Plus, I wanted to make conversation.

>>2380823
LOLOLOOOO you see how superior I am using uncommon words and shit ! MY TICHERS say I'm DuMb BuT tHeY are so LAMEEEEEEEE.

>>2380851

She's part of what has been dubbed the Flat Chest Brigade.

>>2380813

You call that dark and edgy? I find the idea of eating someone alive deeply erotic and I made my last boyfriend let me drink his blood. Get on my level, plebs.

YOU MONSTER

how does one convince a schizophrenic to take medicine.

my sister is having a psychotic episode and i need her to start taking her meds again...any advice?

>>2381009
I guess you don't.

This is the FBI. Are you ready for your mind control implant?

On a more serious note, read crazygail.com. Her faggotry is enough to make *me* want to start taking meds.

>>2381056
I read that first like and suddenly got scared ad fuck and almost cried.
God damnit.
Okay, front page looks interesting enough..

>>2381078

help reach my sister. cmon you have a chance to actually help someone on 4chan.

>>2380908
I let my gf stab my ballsacks to dring the sperm straight out of my balls

>can't touch this

>>2381098
Look, I am not going to tell her to take meds, and you shouldn't force her.
It's her decision, whether you think it is the right one or not. read >>2380449, I am not very pro medication unless it is dire.
My situation isn't that bad, but I am not sure about your sister. Unless she is hurting herself or others, then let me make her own decision.

>>2381187
Are you guys aware that schizophrenia is degenerative? Getting treatment will stop someone's condition from worsening, but whatever deterioration has already occurred can't be reversed. It's best to get treatment as soon as possible, even if things aren't so bad in the present, because it's unlikely to stay that way and there's no going back.

My girfriend is currently chopped up in bags in my freezer.

I drank her spinal fluid, it was salty and delisous. Suck'd that shit right out of her spinal marrow.

I'm goin to grind my girlfriends body and myself in a giant meatgrinder ment for cettle. Nothing will ever do us apart.

>>2381346
There is no cure for schizophrenia, there isn't even a real known cause.
Medications are used to treat the symptoms, therapy is used to develop coping skills.
It may be easier to treat when the patient is still young, but the disease will not worsen any more or less if the patient is medicated.

>>2381346

There's only so much that can be done to stop Neurotoxicity. From what I understand, the average lifespan of a schizophrenic is thirty years shorter than the norm. I will be reaching my mid life crisis in five years at this rate.

It's part of why I keep myself in such good shape, and stay away from drugs and alcohol like the plague. I'm waiting for them to come up with nanocomputers that repair parts of the brain that have been destroyed. I can only hope that happens within my shortened lifetime.

From what I understand, there are drugs out there today that do prevent toxicity. I want to look into that.

Also I really, really, REALLY FUCKING HATE PEOPLE WHO CALL THEMSELVES SCHIZOPHRENIC WITHOUT ANY KIND OF KNOWLEDGE ON THE SUBJECT. FUCK YOU I'M GOING TO DIE FROM ALZHEIMER'S AND DEMENTIA WHEN I'M FIFTY.

>>2382140
I heard that having moderate schizophrenia actually helps in preventing dementia.

>>2382902

Really? Where? I would love to learn about that.

>>2383090
Could be pseudo science bullshit but basically people with mild or dormant schizophrenia are more likely to keep their thought integrity.
it's just that some people display full blown schizophrenia have too much of a good thing, and go crazy.

>>2383701

Could you, uh, elaborate on that, or cite a source? It's not that I'm calling you out, I've actually heard this from some people before. But no one ever actually explains what they mean, or shows me any articles or documentaries or anything. I feel like, aside from first hand experience, I'm comparatively uneducated on schizophrenia and the neuroscience and theories for it.

>>2384510
I heard it the same way you did, actually, so I have no idea.
I duno how to word it to get something off of google.

>>2384510
The truth is no one really knows much about it to begin with, the causes or even what exactly happens in the body when it does.
But we like to think there is a reason it developed.

Who is that behind you?

>>2384621
Mai Pilloe.

Try different meds. Something like Seroquel is incredibly effective and would likely make you the most normal (it has the best glutamate related stuff), but it can causes diabetes really easily, as well as lethargy when you take it and withdrawals when you don't. Not the good kind of withdrawals like feeling stimmed from having so much dopamine release, we're talking palpitations and tremors and sweating.

For my relative though, it's the best thing that's ever happened to him, in his words. He's like 53 and bipolar, and he was put on stuff like thorazine and haloperidol back in the day. Like two years ago a few weeks before Christmas he tried killing his roommate, chasing the roommate down the street with a knife.

There's other meds like geodon and whatever which are more for antipsych and less for bipolar. I think if I was one of those disorders I'd have to be on shit like beta blockers or intuniv, I have trouble enough being organized and succeeding at anything as is.

>>2384708
I am not taking medication right now. I am afraid of them. The last medication I took was birth control because i thought it would calm me down, but I ended up puking and nauseous, as well as awake for days paranoid and crying.

>>2380227

Why is there a picture of meat

>>2384708
fuck seroquel, 2 years sober, shits gay

just smoke natural american spirits for glutamate

>>2384566

Yeah, when I read your post I googled thought integrity and just got a bunch of pompous sounding links.

>>2384882
;_; I want to believe.

preemtive blox

>>2384882
If you want, try something like "effects of schizophrenia on dementia" or "schizophrenia + developing dementia".

Did you read >>2379925 and decide to make the thread because of it?

>>2385072
No, actually, I was thinking about it though, after I had posted I noticed it and thought it was someone trying to get me.

Schizoid personality disorder isn't really anything like schizophrenia or schizotypal personality disorder.

>>2385103
What are the differences? Similarities?

>>2385203
Schizoids are avoidant by choice, because of lack of motivation or understanding of emotions/socializing.
schizotypals usually want to socialize but are too inept and paranoid to do so.

Both include odd beliefs, hallucinogenic episodes and delusional thoughts.

>>2385237
Fair enough. Are you lonely then?

>>2385278
Yes, very. I want so much to be attached to someone but it is extremely hard for me. I am very afraid of people. Even people I have grown up with and trust more, if left to my own devices I would never speak to them again.
This has happened with one of my friends, I will just stop talking to them.
If strangers approach me I usually tear up.

It's so bad I am afraid of my own family, I won't come out of my room most days unless I am forced.

My psychiatrist recently implied I might have schizophrenia.

The reason for this is that I become hyper alert in public and sometimes think I did things I didn't do, said things I didn't say or heard things that no one actually said.

She put me on a medication for it as well.

Should I be concerned? I'm really worried? Do I have schizophrenia and if so what is your advice?

>>2385312
Is communicating online easier for you?

>>2385321
Schizophrenia is more characterized by thought disorders/delusions/shitty thinking than by hallucinations, though hallucinations are usually easy enough to treat.

Schizos develop as early as childhood-20, though most blossom in their twenties, starting on a spiral of anxiety, paranoia, and "reality distortion", then it just gets worse. Dissociation/derealization/depersonalization are not reliable indicators of Schizophrenia.

>>2385321
Some psychiatrists like to throw out meds like candy, because they assume the only reason you are there is to get medicated.

Ask her about it, she would know more than me.

>>2385332
Yes. I like 4chan because I am allowed to post whatever I want without repercussions. I am extremely sexual and blunt, if I ever spoke to someone freely then they would probably think poorly of me. I am also pretty fucking afraid of them anyway, so it usually doesn't get to that point.

I have been in this situation a lot, in family gatherings I would try to joke about cock vore or overreact to simple things.

>>2385377
>joke about cock vore
There might be something

Oh right, you're schizophrenic.

NEVERMIND

>>2385361

No, there's definitely anxiety there. It only happened recently but I started having the habit of talking to myself without realizing it, and I was usually saying things like death threats and rape threats. I became super cautious after that and sometimes I hear myself making threats when I'm not. A lot of times I'm not sure whether I did or not so I have to check around me to see if anyone is looking at me or if anyone noticed. There have been a few times where I've been in a restaurant or a public bus and I thought I heard someone calling the police on me, and then looked around and saw that nobody was actually paying any attention. This happens even more on my college campus and I'm on my guard so much that I don't feel safe there.

Do you feel content and happy going about your day to day life?

>>2385393
Yeah I know.
I only have one (friend). She has been with me for a while and I can talk to her freely about this stuff because we are comfortable around eachother.
I stalked her until she was my friend because I was lonely, I am gad she is also an anxious depressed person or else this wouldn't have worked out.

>>2385377
Would it help, maybe, if you supplemented your interactions with friends/ family with talking to them online, texting them, even writing things out?

>>2385400
Sounds like a schizophrenia then. Wesley Willis had a style of schizophrenia like that. Like I said, hallucinations are easier to treat than the more insidious shitty thinking and psychoses schizophrenias.

>>2385377
Tell me a joke about cock vore please.

>>2385400
You sure you aren't just paranoid? Serious question.
>>2385408
Absolutely not. I am severely depressed, I cannot sleep because I am afraid of the people around me, I have lost interest in things I once loved, and I feel that I don't know myself.

>>2385420
I duno. I have done that before and I usually scare people off. I remember I was acquainted with this one kid from the library, we talked about gundams and stuff, and as soon as he was online I talked about porno and grotesque stuff. One of my English teachers was a really feel-y teacher, he took special interest in me because I was so awkward, poorly dressed, and shy. I painted him pictures and such, he wrote me a letter after I wrote him one (which basically said how I hated everyone in school and would strangle them if I had the chance, something about me moving to scandinavia and then on again about the shit I saw.

My psych teacher also did this with me, i guess it must be obvious because I dress poorly, stutter, shy away from others, occasionally spurt out grotesque things and cry when people talk to me.
After that they sent me to the school psych, I hated him, he kept insisting I was some angsty teen or something.

>>2385526
It wasn't really a "joke' but I mentioned it and laughed.
>mfw the look on their face when I mentioned it while smiling

>>2385578
Did it come up in conversation somehow? Were there some special hilarious circumstances, or did you just bring it up out of nowhere? I need circumstance to make it funny.

>>2385543
I'm really sorry you've gone through all that. What about having like-minded online friends? Ones who won't be freaked out by guro or what-have-you. Basically what I'm getting at is I want to hug you, help you, and failing that be your friend.

>>2385621
I really don't remember.
Also, I would compulsively draw porn in class. No one ever found out though.

>>2385640
You're saying you're a schizophrenic?

>>2385666 (woo 666get)
He's saying he's seen some things and doesn't mind guro and wishes to be a friend to you, or something like that.

>>2385666
No. I'm saying I won't get scared away by you talking about guro and sex (two things I talk about frequently) and that, although I'm not schizophrenic, I can relate to your paranoia on some level as I have trust issues (though they aren't as bad as they used to be). I'm also saying that I feel bad that you're lonely and I want to offer you someone to talk to.

>>2385754
You realize ho you are talking to?
I have serious concerns that you are a serial killer who knows where I live and will hunt me down and murder me.

>no word salad
good one OP, almost had me

has the non-ability to form sentences ever gotten grip of you?
I regularly can't form or understand correct english.

>>2385754
He's onto us, do it now.
(just kidding)

>>2385770
you don't have to display every symptom of schizophrenia to have it.

>>2385780
Yeah. It's hard to write essays and stuff. I was always very thoughtful and always scored at almost the top of my literature class.
My teacher would always have to get on me about my sentences being jumbled and not making syntactical sense.
I did good in creative writing though, because it's easy to pass off as creativity.

>>2385768
I'm an erotophonophile (murder fetishest), that's the closest I get to serial killer. I'd never actually murder anyone. Just make an email with fake information. I'm not asking to meet up or anything. If you'd like to have someone to talk to, there, you can email me.

anyone have any of the OCDtraits that tend to come along with this sort of thing?

>I have to pick up any change I see,
>I must turn right and left the same number of times so I start and end the day in the same direction, (this can lead to me turning on the spot for some time)
>I have to blow on any food anyone else touched,
>I have to wash my hands in a certain way, shake them 12 times and then dry fully,
>I have to have all my TV torrents named in the exact same manner.

I have plenty of other ones though

>>2385842
>>I have to pick up any change I see,
You ure you're not just a jew?

>>2385854
that's what everyone else says too.
though most of the time I pick it up I just throw it somewhere, or put it on a table or something.
just so long as it's up from where it was.

Any other schizos ever feel like theres literally no love and support for them? Like your friends and family who know about it want to help you at best but have no idea how and just end up avoiding you and being afraid of you?

There is something to be said for a water born mammal that uses tools.

The problem here is that we choose to believe our own lies.

Do you ever get paranoid about the idea that one day the government will have a supercomputer powerful enough that they can run a simulation of the entire universe from the big bang to now, and then they will use that supercomputer to figure out exactly how the universe has played out, like, use the supercomputer to put you in jail for stuff they know you did but never got arrested for?

>>2385917
Not that crazy yet.
I jsut have this paranoia I will be arrested.
Not really any reason why.

>>2385928
i have schizophrenia as well... i just wondered if you shared that fear/delusion about the supercomputer.

Hey guys, uh.

Have any of you other schizos ever had, you know, characters? Guys you see and talk to and stuff? Where you ever shocked to find out they weren't real?

>>2385917
not OP, but I have had paranoia about similar sets of circumstance and have since the age of 5 continually tried to create a character who would be perceived as not being able to be jailed for any of what could be put on me.

also I have paranoia about everyone watching what I'm doing and knocked someone out over it once.


though the worst one of all it probably all the times I think I've killed myself. through whatever means and it's not done anything but I'm still going.

Alright, We gotta have a roll call. I need all the schizophrenics to acknowledge in a post starting from this one that they have schizophrenia. I just want to know how many of us are lurking in this thread. It's always months between whenever I meet another schizophrenic on 4chan, and I never get to talk to any of them about anything.

>>2386024
I'm not schizophrenic.

>>2386024
probably, though not diagnosed, despite going to therapist about symptoms.

So including OP, that's three of us? I thought there were more for some reason.

>>2386228
you were posting in this thread without remembering it

>>2386228
Speaking of, did OP leave?

what is your favorite thing to hallucinate

>>2386241
No jut sleepy.
Waiting for my friend to come online.

>>2386269
Good. You're not allowed to leave until you email me. Please?

>>2386292
I can't do that.
Already scared enough as is.

>>2386302
you could make a fake email just for that.
australia.edu has all the same stuff as google mail without having you confirm.

>>2386302
But I want to be your friend. Is there anything I can do to reassure you?

How do I know if I'm schizophrenic or not?

>>2386347

Have you ever used google before? I'd give it a try if I were you.
