What's the worst mental illness to have?

Question

I think it's definitely schizophrenia.  Hearing voices, being paranoid, thinking that people have powers like mind reading over you, are just awful.  My great grandmother had it and it was awful.

Audiovisual schizophrenia. You have a low grasp on reality, nobody really can or want to help you, and you likely will refuse treatment anyways

Otherwise I'd say BPD. 80% attempt suicide by 30, about 10% succeed. You put yourself at extreme regular risk, destroy your life and happiness and isolated yourself to the point if you're in the 10%, you're gonna likely die alone and unwanted. My girl has this and it hurts to watch

schizo or bipolar depending on the person but i wouldn't really compare mental illnesses like that. it's gonna be different for everyone and a lot of them are comorbid

and dementia is more of a brain disorder than a mental illness

From your list, trauuma, ptsd.

But worse is the real syndrome listed at psychology website.

For me, dealing with overthinking and self-esteem issues can feel overwhelming at times, because it traps me in my own mind and creates a sense of constant doubt. It’s like battling your own thoughts, which can be exhausting. But I also realize that other people struggle with different challenges, and no illness is easy. And i cry while taking shower there is no reason to cry but i just cry in shower.

I voted schizophrenic as well. That sounds like one hell of a thing to deal with compared to the rest.

I remember dealing with them on public transportation in my college days. My psychologist professor told me they were doing experiments on them because they give off a smell... like wrapping them up in suits to see what was causing the stink.

Panic disorder. Because you're putting yourself and others in fucked up situations. Like for example going through with falsely accusing someone of whatever their panic disorder decides they did and go through with telling the police and serving the guy an ex parte PPO

The one where you can’t rest have any peace that you can’t even sit down for long because you’re freaking out that’s the worst. Or is that just like having a panic attack?

msc545 · Answer

Schizophrenia or borderline personality disorder. Both can be treated but not very effectively.

HawkPerception · Answer

I wouldn't know as I haven't experienced them myself, other than maybe ADHD, which tons of people have in this day and age of constant media distractions.

I would assume it's either schizophrenia or dementia out of those options though.

KittygosMeoWW · Answer

I have ptsd from an abusive relationship and I have been struggling with sleeping/anxiety for years… I have about 1-2 nightmares a night where I wake up sweating and frantic. It’s pretty bad.

When suffering from one, due to subjectivity, there is no worst mental illness than the one we experience

DrPepper12 · Answer

Without a doubt dementia. Not only does it destroy your loved ones, but it destroys everyone who cares about that person. To watch someone you love admire and respect suffer a living death is unfathomably cruel to everyone.

I think all of them are bad and they all can’t be ranked from wort to best to have. They vary from person to person.

Ironco · Answer

I would have to agree with you on "schizophrenia"... But I'm ex military... PTSD is a really hard thing to live with too.

ggrurrllz · Answer

It doesn't exist.

it's a scam designed to shut people down, and mental health professionals are sexist, racist and bigoted.

They would allow a positive bias of somebody to affect their treatment of somebody. for instance, they decide how to treat somebody who looked like Kylie Jenner better than anybody else. And only based on how she looks.

For me, it was my wife's delusionality... which was caused by a mixture of anti-depressants and anti-psychotics, deliberately given to her by govt-controlled psychiatrists.
