  • Experience Of Embodiment & Thought Insertion
    Sep 30 2022
    Schizophrenia often involves an altered sense of embodiment, an experience In describe here. My experience with altered embodiment in Schizophrenia has been heavily focused on the brain and skull, which led me to think about how this might affect other Symptoms, particularly Thought Insertion and Thought Broadcasting. I explore some of my thoughts on the topic here, I'd love to hear what you think in the Instagram comments for this episode or in a private message!

  • Maturing Through Psychotherpy: A Cross-Diagnostic Look
    Aug 17 2022
    I've always been interested in the ways different diagnoses relate, and was fasdcinated at how similar the description of developmental remediation was in a book I have been reading for Borderline patients as it was in my experience for DID & Schizophrenia. Personality Disorders & Schizophrenia have interesting areas of overlap & similarity, and here I sharte my reflections on how re-parenting in Schizophrenia is similar to Personality Disorder Therapy when both are using Psychoanalytic elements.

  • Self-Alienation, Trauma, & Psychosis
    May 24 2022
    We've talked about social alienation & Social Defeat, but what does that do to your relationship to yourself in the context of a Psychotic condition? Feeling alienated from yourself & others is normal for Traumatized people, but how does this manifest in someone with Schizophrenia (and DID, as my case was)? Here I explore some of my thoughts & hypotheses on Self-Alienation in Schizophrenia/Psychosis, and my experiences in Recovery/Stabilization from this state.
