Schizoaffective Podcast

In this episode, I talk about how harmful it is to use medical terms like "psychotic" and "delusional", as insults, and just how this contributes to the stigma those of us with psychotic mental illness face. I also talk a little bit about media representation of psychotic mental illness, and will be discussing that in more depth at a later date.

In this episode, I talk about the stigma around "appearing well", and stereotypes relating to mental illness, particularly psychotic conditions.

In this episode, I discuss how stressful events — such as coronavirus / COVID-19 — can cause an increase in psychotic symptoms. I also talk about some tips to manage these stressors and how to self-care during these difficult times. Please take care of yourselves!

In this episode, I discuss some of my main symptoms, and how my psychiatrist determined that I had Schizoaffective Disorder.

In this episode, I explain how I came to be diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder. I also explain many of my symptoms, and some psychotic episodes I experienced which led me to get further help.
