Do you scream or shout when in an episode?

I keep reading on reddit about “schizophrenic neighbours” screaming/shouting all night long. Do you ever do this? I sometimes shout to myself when talking to the voices.

Exactly the opposite, when I’m really bad I go quiet and non-responsive.

Generally quiet. I only had one episode long time ago that was explosive towards others.

I never raise my voice. I’m not crazy enough for that! :sweat_smile:

I believed people were commenting every single thing I did and said it was stupid, so I was more paralyzed and afraid instead of talking or shouting, although I did shout when I was fed up with it.

Only when the internet is acting up.

:wink:

Other than that, I’m quiet as a titmouse.

I did when I was locked up in jail and in psych wards. But to be honest I think I was trying to get out. And to be honest I thought if I raised enough hell then they would let me out. So it was debatable on whether or not it was because of my episodes

I talk loud. People say I’m screaming. I’m not.

only once I shouted a Jewish hymn “eho Yeshua Holy Yahweh” over and over because I was trying to bring Jesus back to earth…my room mate stopped me.

@shutterbug and @Nomad .

I’ve also gone mute in the past because I felt overwhelmed.

I just couldn’t answer questions or speak.

Thankfully i eventually could speak again.:yum:

There was a time when I had voices and would scream f#€k off to them trying to yell at them to leave me alone.

Sometimes I lose my voice also if people supress me or have aggressive energy at me.

I get fearful and more on the quiet side when I’m paranoid. But I tend to write a lot.

I don’t have an episode so I don’t shout or scream!!! But it’s possible for Sz to be crazy

Yes, i used to scream and shout at my voices in the middle of the night when I was symptomatic and not medicated.

I’m the opposite
I get real quiet and passive
(When I’m not manic)

I yell and scream when I get episodes in the summer months and I get quiet and almost mute and catatonic in my winter episodes.
