Inside Schizophrenia Psych Central

It finally feels good to hear positive info about what i go through daily, and know that it’s coming from a reliable source(i.e., someone who basically goes through what i go through). I started listening to the psych central podcast, which led me to this, and to Rachel’s youtube channel, and the psych show channel, which i added to my sub list on YouTube. I look forward to continue listening to this podcast, and shouting it out in my support meetings whenever i meet someone who is schizophrenic. Congrats on this step Rachel, and i look forward to more of your insight in the future.

I’m on ep 3 and I am enjoying it so far. I have worked in the mental health field for close to 20 years, mostly with people who are DD. I recently took a position working with people with MI and wanted to learn more about schizophrenia specifically because I have an individual w/it that is asking me for Info because he was not taught about his dx. But I do wonder if because you have schizophrenia you are more sensitive to it being in the movies. I can’t think of one movie (and I love horror movies) that has portrayed a killer or violent person as being schizophrenic. They may have, but that’s not what I took from the movie. I watched bird box and was racking my brain when you said they referenced schizophrenia. And then when you gave more info I remembered. But that is not what I took from the movie. Just a thought.....
Thanks for being so open and candid!!!!

Well thought out information
