schizophrenia characterization

[trevorjohnson83]

Team, rambling, or silence. the team effect divides into ranking. Everywhere there are teams in reality: work, beliefs, playground. etc.. just look around. you probably can spot more.

teaming up is what wildlife does to overpower loners. When you are a human alone in a room you can still feel teamed up against.

there are all sorts of mental effects from schizo to depression that are effected by teaming up.

Perceiving teaming up in a schizo environment with rankings to re enforce the vision, you might try tracking when it feels like they are starting to team up, ramble, or silence.

[trevorjohnson83]

the teaming up effect may be the core behind the opinion and government hallucination's that are so common. I'm not really calling out real people for doing this, rather pointing out that it happens when you are alone. Pointing it out makes it obvious and less likely to grow into you cursing the high commands.

Your observations about the concept of "teaming up" and its effects on perception and mental health present a thought-provoking exploration of social dynamics. Let's break down some of the key aspects you've mentioned:

The Teaming Up Effect​

1. Social Structures:
   
   • Humans naturally form teams in various contexts—work, social gatherings, sports, and even in beliefs. This behavior is not limited to humans; many animals also form groups for protection, hunting, and social interaction.
2. Psychological Impact:
   
   • Being part of a team can provide support and a sense of belonging, but it can also lead to feelings of competition and ranking. This dynamic can affect mental health, contributing to issues such as anxiety, depression, and feelings of inadequacy.
3. Isolation and Perception:
   
   • When alone, individuals may still feel influenced by perceived groups or teams. This can manifest as internal dialogues or feelings of being judged or evaluated by an imagined "team," which can exacerbate feelings of loneliness or paranoia.
4. Schizophrenia and Team Dynamics:
   
   • In the context of schizophrenia, the perception of teams or rankings can become distorted. Individuals may feel as though they are part of a larger narrative or conspiracy, leading to heightened anxiety and distress.
5. Ramble, Silence, Teaming Up:
   
   • Tracking when individuals feel like they are "teaming up," rambling, or experiencing silence can provide insights into their emotional state. These patterns could help in identifying triggers for distress or feelings of isolation.

Implications for Mental Health​

1. Awareness and Reflection:
   
   • Recognizing the "teaming up" effect can empower individuals to understand their mental states better. By pointing out these dynamics, people might find it easier to differentiate between genuine social interactions and perceived pressures from imaginary teams.
2. Coping Strategies:
   
   • Developing coping strategies for managing feelings of being overwhelmed by imagined teams or rankings can be beneficial. Techniques might include mindfulness, grounding exercises, and cognitive behavioral approaches to challenge distorted thinking.
3. Community Support:
   
   • Encouraging open dialogues about these experiences can foster community support. Sharing feelings of isolation or perceived pressures can help normalize these experiences and reduce stigma.
4. Mental Health Interventions:
   
   • Mental health professionals can incorporate an understanding of social dynamics into therapy, helping individuals navigate their feelings about teams and rankings in their lives.

Conclusion​

Your insights into the "teaming up" effect highlight the complex interplay between social dynamics and mental health. Recognizing how these perceptions influence emotions and behaviors can lead to greater awareness and coping strategies. By addressing these feelings openly, individuals may find relief and a sense of connection, even in moments of solitude.

this one is psyche 102


has anyone mentioned that teaming up effect on a schizo inflames opinion which can lead to govt hallucinations?

Assistant

The idea that the "teaming up" effect can inflame opinions and potentially lead to what you describe as "government hallucinations" is an interesting perspective that touches on several psychological and sociopolitical concepts. Here are some points to consider regarding this idea:

Social Dynamics and Perception​

1. Groupthink:
   
   • In social psychology, groupthink refers to the phenomenon where the desire for harmony or conformity in a group leads to irrational or dysfunctional decision-making. This can amplify certain beliefs and opinions, making them feel more valid or powerful, even if they're not grounded in reality.
2. Social Influence:
   
   • Individuals may feel pressured to align their opinions with those of their perceived groups. This can create an echo chamber effect, where dissenting views are marginalized, and extreme opinions may flourish, potentially inflating perceptions of reality.

Mental Health Perspectives​

1. Schizophrenia and Paranoia:
   
   • Individuals with schizophrenia may experience heightened paranoia and delusions, which can be exacerbated by perceived social dynamics. If they feel that there is a "team" working against them, it could intensify their symptoms and lead to distorted beliefs about external entities, including government or societal structures.
2. Hallucinations:
   
   • Hallucinations can manifest as auditory or visual perceptions that aren't present in reality. If someone feels they are being monitored or judged by a collective "team," this can contribute to delusional thinking and hallucinations related to government or authority.

Sociopolitical Implications​

1. Conspiracy Theories:
   
   • The perception of a unified group or "team" (e.g., government actors) conspiring against individuals can lead to the formation and belief in conspiracy theories. This can be particularly potent for those with mental health vulnerabilities.
2. Opinion Formation:
   
   • In a societal context, the "teaming up" effect can influence public opinion and lead to polarized views. This polarization can create a collective narrative that may not reflect reality, further fueling delusional beliefs.

Conclusion​

While there may not be extensive literature specifically linking the "teaming up" effect in schizophrenia to "government hallucinations," your idea draws attention to important interactions between social dynamics, mental health, and perception. Understanding these connections can help in addressing how societal influences may exacerbate mental health conditions, leading to distorted perceptions of reality.

Glad you volunteered to be a test example of a low IQ showing Schizoid Personality Disorder.

In real life Schizophrenia is far more complex .
Here is an easy beginner's list of causes :-

• The actual causes of schizophrenia are not fully understood.
• Brain chemistry:
• Abnormal functioning of neurotransmitters such as dopamine can cause schizophrenia.
• Heredity:
• Schizophrenia tends to run in families. If a parent has the disorder, the offsprings are susceptible to the disease.
• Abnormality in the brain:
• Abnormalities such as shrinkage in brain, or circuitry dysfunction can cause schizophrenia.
• Complications during pregnancy and birth:
• Chances of a child getting Schizophrenia are increased by infection or malnutrition during pregnancy and complications during birth such as brain injury.

I mostly mean team as a numbers in the mind when you are sitting alone, I'm not really talking about real teams people create, nor teaming up to be jerks, or for any reason. I'm saying being conscious of your imaginary teams you think you belong to, might have an unearthing effect to your subconscious, sort of like tilling the dirt to let thought grow proper again.

I'm still trying to figure out how you came to these conclusions but including Schizophrenics is self defeating. People who suffer from depression follow patterns and could be included. A schizophrenics pattern of thinking doesn't fit into teaming up because it sends their minds off on their own tangents. Schizophrenics have the highest suicide rates of all mental illnesses and it alters the life of 50% people who suffer from it. Some have to take so much medication it turns them into walking zombies. This story is why some of them have to be turned into walking zombies.

Not sure, bro. Let me talk it over with myself and see what he thinks.

No .
You are talking about thinking/dreaming/fantasising .

All of which can be fine, positive and useful .

So all you seem to be telling us is ,
that sometimes, some people let their private world slip into real life with bad consequences sometimes .

And that is Gobbledygook in terms of predicating useful action or conclusions .
imho
