If everybody with schizophrenia are murders, then we would have 20 million murderers. Certainly, we don’t have 0.5% of the world’s population wanting to kill each other.
Conclusion: stigma just makes people believe that schizophrenics are all murderers.
I have a high level of self-stigma, and I realize that I was just being irrational. This statement made me think again about how I view my psychosis.
Analyze your conclusions whether its true or not before believing in it otherwise it can become like delusions. People not view schizo people as murderers instead they view them as ill person just like other chronic diseases like diabetics, heart patients etc. Since its a mental illness people approach them with caution as mental illness people have less insight when compared with physical illness people.
Yes, the healthcare people who work with shizoprenic people know that there is no link between murder and the disease. I have never gotten violent when in psychosis. Deep down I know that it’s me there’s something wrong with and not the people around me trying to help.
It is true that some people get violent, but that mostly stems from fear and paranoia, not a desire to injure anyone. They are afraid that the people around them are trying to hurt them because they themselves are deluded and can’t see reality clear.
Yes, I thought that people were stealing my energy and ideas. I am violent without meds.
I was only violent towards my family though, I hided my aggressivity in society fearing cops.
Have you heard back from your Moms Covid test results yet @Aziz?
How is she doing?
5 more days for the results, she’s still coughing and sick since 3 days. Thanks for asking.
Some schizophrenics get a bit aggressive off meds, but not to the point of murdering someone.
Only if someone attempts to hide chocolate from me. jk
My delusions and tendencies would be really bad with added testosterone
I’ve had people push me off them when at the time I was deluded they wanted sex including a virtual stranger woman
I’ve had violent command delusion where I’ve punched a nurse 3 x in the face
I thought she was telling me to punch her
And I have once tried to kick another patient but the staff were right there and stopped me
I was convinced a one night not even stand that he wanted me to force a dildo on him
Etc
If i wasn’t a peace loving female behind this stuff but an average man I’d have done something really bad before now
I’ve never been violent when psychotic either but sometimes Alien puts suicidal or homicidal thoughts in my head. And I have fear and paranoia but tend to run away or avoid others instead of fight.
