 | Tim Grutzius @holisticff @TruthPathing Good Evening Sue. How are you today? #ptsdchat |
 | The Doc as eR+T=L living on purpose! @CosmicLifeOfMe #ptsdchat Good evening to everyone who is here or who will arrive at some point. Good to be here for another chat. My question stands for my topic. Is mental illness misleading? Can another term be substituted to make it sound less threatening to the public? |
 | YouViewIt (Y๐u๐ธB๐๐๐ธIt) 2 SECURITY @GillianWotton2 @KateGillieART Did I do it right? I think I went left when I should have gone right...tried following someone here, but I got lost... #PTSDchat |
| The Doc as eR+T=L living on purpose! @CosmicLifeOfMe #ptsdchat when the word "mental" is used many people see a deranged and out of control person or group of people who need to be arrested and thrown away. Even I hate to use the term, even though if I don't, it can cause confusion. |
| Tim Grutzius @holisticff @cannonfyre12 Good question Chris, I think that the term illness brings with it a negative connotation. Would behavioral health issues sound less threatening? #ptsdchat |
| The Doc as eR+T=L living on purpose! @CosmicLifeOfMe #ptsdchat PTSI can be a beast, one that makes you feel afraid when nothing is there, or feel anxious when you are perfectly safe. It makes reality more like a bad fantasy than a real situation. Dealing with this is difficult and frightening at times. |
| Tim Grutzius @holisticff @cannonfyre12 I agree that the word mental creates a stereotype of being locked in an insane asylum. When in fact, most people with behavioral health concerns are seen on an outpatient basis. #ptsdchat No more thorazine soaks. |
| Tim Grutzius @holisticff @cannonfyre12 You pose an excellent question with no easy way to lessen the stereotype. #ptsdchat |
| The Doc as eR+T=L living on purpose! @CosmicLifeOfMe #ptsdchat I remembered the sight of a man who pulled out the eyes of his wife for looking at another man. How could any human stoop to this level of cruelty? It started haunting me over the past weekend. A memory I could surely do without! |
 | Playthrough (Y๐u๐ธB๐๐๐ธIt) TORONTO @YOUVIEWIT @cannonfyre12 Why does nobody call said person by name B4 tackling them & making the situation potentially worse 4 all people involved? Sometimes people go postal cuz they R sick of being ignored & treated like a bag of potatoes instead of a human being. First time!!! Sorry #PTSDchat |
| Tim Grutzius @holisticff @cannonfyre12 Usually when someone is uncomfortable with another person openly discuss their journey, it is because they see something in themselves. They are just not ready to enter the open arena of discussion either in a group or 1-on-1. #ptsdchat |
| The Doc as eR+T=L living on purpose! @CosmicLifeOfMe #PTSDchat who makes the rules as to what is or is not normal? The abuses suffered at the hands of Dr.s of mental institutions over the generations is a sad and sickening record of inhumanity. |
| Tim Grutzius @holisticff @YOUVIEWIT @cannonfyre12 To what are you referring to my friend? #ptsdchat |
| Tim Grutzius @holisticff @cannonfyre12 There is no doubt that in the past many abuses were committed on those who were locked away and forgotten. #ptsdchat |
| Tim Grutzius @holisticff @cannonfyre12 What did he carry in his past that would lead him to such an act? #ptsdchat In this case, there was an underlying cause. |
| The Doc as eR+T=L living on purpose! @CosmicLifeOfMe #PTSDchat fear is still the cement of pubic perceptions about subjects that they don't understand. |
| Tim Grutzius @holisticff @cannonfyre12 And this is why it is up to us to provide the much needed educational outreach to assist in bridging the gap towards understanding. #ptsdchat |
 | The Happy Hunker @bannedtweet I made the rules for a while but I don't think anyone paid attention. #PTSDChat https://t.co/t58klQ6run |
| YouViewIt (Y๐u๐ธB๐๐๐ธIt) 2 SECURITY @GillianWotton2 @cannonfyre12 @KateGillieART I think I am, but the lights R off, so I'm not sure. Just listen 4 me tripping over something, I don't go far!! #ptsdchat |
| The Doc as eR+T=L living on purpose! @CosmicLifeOfMe #PTSDchat How do you REALLY feel about your emotional condition? Mine makes me angry enough at times that I want to blow my brains out, just to kill it off! Does anyone else ever feel this way? You can be honest here. |
| The Happy Hunker @bannedtweet The word Mental got re-purposed into slang, same as Retarded did. There was never anything wrong with the words themselves. Perfectly innocent language gets hijacked & people redefine words to mean things they never meant before. #PTSDChat |
| The Doc as eR+T=L living on purpose! @CosmicLifeOfMe #PTSDchat Why should we be so sweet about what we're going through. It's f*cked up to tell the truth and there is no need for us to pretend that it isn't! I hate being affected by this "thing", this intruder who was never invited to my emotional party. |
| Tim Grutzius @holisticff @bannedtweet Amen to that my friend. It is all in how it is spun for the sound bite of the day. #ptsdchat. |
| The Happy Hunker @bannedtweet @cannonfyre12 I guess the good news now is that institutions are only for the Healthcare Wealthy. The vast bulk of people are completely locked out of any kind if inpatient care. #PTSDChat |
| The Doc as eR+T=L living on purpose! @CosmicLifeOfMe #PTSDchat I was going to take my own life! MINE! and I love the hell out of myself, so there is definitely something wrong with PTSI(D) I won't give it a pass, it's going to have to fight to stay inside of me, I intend to lick it out of myself somehow. |

| Tim Grutzius @holisticff @bannedtweet @cannonfyre12 That and goverment deregulation back in the 80's. #ptsdchat |

| The Happy Hunker @bannedtweet @holisticff Way back when, Cult described any minor religious order and that's all it meant. It became common for folks from larger religious denominations (ie:Walter Martin) to hold minor faiths in disdain & redefined Cult to mean evil. It was kind of an interesting process. #PTSDChat |
| The Doc as eR+T=L living on purpose! @CosmicLifeOfMe #PTSDchat We can be found in strange situations because of a condition that imposes itself on us without reason and without hesitation. Disturbing as it is to us, it seems to be more so to those who have never experienced any of its dynamics. |
| Playthrough (Y๐u๐ธB๐๐๐ธIt) TORONTO @YOUVIEWIT #ptsdchat IDK about the world in general, but we have https://t.co/pVcz72QWSx it is not impossible 2 find a good MD... https://t.co/FlaC5mdTMy |
| Tim Grutzius @holisticff @bannedtweet Interesting indeed. All it did was widen the gap of understanding between people and nations. #ptsdchat |
 | Sue Wood @TruthPathing #PTSDchat this is a good conversation I had a few days ago re injury vs. disorder https://t.co/BwtwKJjXLD |
| The Happy Hunker @bannedtweet @holisticff @cannonfyre12 Institutions then really were dangerous crapholes. Not all of them were & most varied from safe sections to Circles of Hell. For a lot of folks locked away, the street was safer. Now we send mentally ill to prison. We administer 1980s care at 10x the cost. #PTSDChat |
| Playthrough (Y๐u๐ธB๐๐๐ธIt) TORONTO @YOUVIEWIT @cannonfyre12 #ptsdchat There is a lot 2B said 4 mind over matter... Just don't let it win. It's like quitting any bad habit...the cravings get better & better, ultimately disappearing or becoming more manageable in time from my experience. Never say never. |
| Tim Grutzius @holisticff @bannedtweet @cannonfyre12 Prison is not going to address their underlying issues in any way, shape, or form. What do you think about these recent celebrity suicides? Will they spearhead a more open conversation about mental health concerns? #ptsdchat |
| The Happy Hunker @bannedtweet Florida has done what it can to keep the spirit of 1980's mental institutions alive. Staff & patients alike are at high risk of abuse and death. https://t.co/zZJNcFSnw8 #PTSDChat |
| The Doc as eR+T=L living on purpose! @CosmicLifeOfMe #PTSDchat How far are we willing to go with our advocacy? People are in need but they are also in fear, some of us can get beyond that level to help, I'm one, but time can be a serious hindrance for me. |
| The Happy Hunker @bannedtweet @holisticff @cannonfyre12 They might. The news orgs are a little less focused on sensationalizing them. If the pattern follows MeToo, we'll need more high profile events before a larger conversation takes form. #PTSDChat |
| Tim Grutzius @holisticff @bannedtweet Illinois closed many of our institutions. As a medic, I respond several times a week for psych evaluations. In the past it was maybe once every 2 weeks. #ptsdchat |
| Tim Grutzius @holisticff @bannedtweet @cannonfyre12 I agree wholeheartedly. #ptsdchat |
| The Doc as eR+T=L living on purpose! @CosmicLifeOfMe #PTSDchat Prisons exacerbate an already chaotic problem. They don't give a damn about the patients, and why should they? They are only there to keep them locked in, not care for conditions they don't understand. |
| Sue Wood @TruthPathing Thanks all for keeping the conversation going during the snake emergency. #ptsdchat |
| The Happy Hunker @bannedtweet @holisticff All around my neighborhood is one of the densest concentrations of homeless in the US. That means tons of folks struggling with mental illness. Our local police have worked hard to rework their interactions & are doing much better-than-average. #PTSDChat |
| Tim Grutzius @holisticff @cannonfyre12 We live in a world that needs alot of love to help change the way we treat each other. #ptsdchat |
| The Doc as eR+T=L living on purpose! @CosmicLifeOfMe #PTSDchat Destruction comes when a mind is distracted from the path into which it is going. Emotional injuries cause the illness dynamics which keep us unfocused and on the brink of disaster. |
| Tim Grutzius @holisticff @bannedtweet As Lao Tzu said "a journey of 1000 miles begins with a single step." #ptsdchat |
| The Doc as eR+T=L living on purpose! @CosmicLifeOfMe #PTSDchat I called my senator's office, still, no response, I emailed and wrote to all of the national and state officials in this state, and still nothing but stupid form letters in response. typically political bullshit! |
| YouViewIt (Y๐u๐ธB๐๐๐ธIt) 2 SECURITY @GillianWotton2 @cannonfyre12 #ptsdchat That problem originates from the system that was designed 2 help being used as a risk/reward system that punishes anyone who asks 4 help & rewards those who "tell" on their friends. |
| The Happy Hunker @bannedtweet @cannonfyre12 Here prosecutors are likely to dismiss a case if there's any chance for adjudication from MI. I'm not sure how willing they are secure convictions for MI. In most jurisdictions it's Gold Stars for High conviction Rates, no matter who gets locked up. #PTSDChat |
| The Happy Hunker @bannedtweet @TruthPathing Snake Emergencies are the only True Emergencies. #PTSDChat |
| Tim Grutzius @holisticff @cannonfyre12 It is not an issue for them, until it becomes an issue for them. Se la vie. #ptsdchat |
| The Happy Hunker @bannedtweet @holisticff Henry Ford said Screw that. Drive. #PTSDChat |
| Tim Grutzius @holisticff @cannonfyre12 @bannedtweet Beep Beep! #ptsdchat |
| Tim Grutzius @holisticff @bannedtweet LOL! #ptsdchat |
| Playthrough (Y๐u๐ธB๐๐๐ธIt) TORONTO @YOUVIEWIT @cannonfyre12 #ptsdchat Nothing has stopped me yet & I have all the time in the world... |
| Tim Grutzius @holisticff take care my friends, it is time for me to power down for the rest of the night. See you next week. #PTSDChat |
| The Doc as eR+T=L living on purpose! @CosmicLifeOfMe #PTSDchat family, it's been real. But we need to try to get more people to begin participating again. There are so many who need this, maybe they feel stunted because they can't say it they way they feel it. Far from true! Get involved get with us! |
| The Happy Hunker @bannedtweet @YOUVIEWIT @cannonfyre12 Dood. Save some time for everyone else. #PTSDChat |
| Sue Wood @TruthPathing @bannedtweet I posted a pic. Do you know what kind it is? #ptsdchat |
| The Doc as eR+T=L living on purpose! @CosmicLifeOfMe #PTSDchat Love and peace. https://t.co/wKEBt3uG9Q |
| The Happy Hunker @bannedtweet @TruthPathing Looks like a Checkered Garter Snake https://t.co/2ensjPP7er #PTSDChat |
| Sue Wood @TruthPathing Thanks to all for the great conversation! #ptsdchat. Have a great evening! |
| The Happy Hunker @bannedtweet @TruthPathing The dangerous snakes I can think of w/ similar patterns have a really distinctive triangular head and tend to be fatter & shorter. From what I see of it, that one looks safe. #PTSDChat |
