schizophrenia in the music~

have you ever thought that you are actually listening to a psychotic song?

has it ever occured to you that you can learn about schizophrenia by just listening the music?

according to DSM criteria to diagnose schizophrenia, you must have 2 or more of the following criteria for at least 1 month:

1. delusions
2. hallucinations
3. disorganized speech
4. grossly disorganized or catatonic behavior
5. negative symptoms (blunted affect, poverty of speech, psychomotor retardation etc)

so here is MATCHBOX 20 with UNWELL to prove my point...hehehe

All day Staring at the ceiling Making friends with shadows on my wall	Visual hallucinations.....he sees things others couldn’t see
All night Hearing voices telling me That I should get some sleep Because tomorrow might be good for something	Auditory hallucinations...he hears voices!
Hold on I'm feeling like I'm headed for a Breakdown I don't know why	Negative symptoms...looks like depression to me (sometimes people get confused between these 2)
I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell I know, right now you can't tell But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see A different side of me I'm not crazy, I'm just a little impaired I know, right now you don't care But soon enough you're gonna think of me And how I used to be Me	In denial...crazy people never admits they are crazy right?? Different side of him is after he is being treated lar
Talking to myself in public Dodging glances on the train	Bizarre behaviour...you’d be freaked out to see people talking by themselves right?
I know I know they've all been talking 'bout me I can hear them whisper And it makes me think there must be something wrong With me	Persecutory delusion...they are deluded into thinking that others are talking bad things about them...
Out of all the hours thinking Somehow I've lost my mind	Lost your mind means you have no control of your own thought...like some other thing has taken away their thought...this is called thought alienation
I been talking in my sleep Pretty soon they'll come to get me Yeah, they're taking me away	Persecutory delusion also...deluded into believing that others are trying to harm them eventhough there its nonsensical...
