Video on schizophrenia upset me/also interesting

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=nEnklxGAmak&list=PL150326949691B199&index=24

I liked this video, and I thought it was interesting. But, I didn’t understand how the audience of students would laugh when the professor discussed the behaviors of schizophrenia, such as disorganized thinking. I’m diagnosed with disorganized thinking, and I feel very self conscious when I speak. I notice that I switch topics quickly, and I don’t answer questions. It’s also like my brain is blocked.

I think sometimes it can be funny in a morbid way. Some of the things I’ve experienced are kinda funny in retrospect.

Yea, I had to think more about it because sometimes my brother will be like “how did you go from this to that lol” and I start laughing. Then, there’s an auditory hallucination that I used to hear. It used to call me Homer Simpson, and my aunt and I were laughing about it. Also, I realize when I tell my gran my auditory hallucinations she laughs, only hearing the content of it and not the voice tones’ dramatic presentation. But yea, I did cry during this video.
