why experts talking about psychic disorder always serious to the level ,a normal person would be scared to the extent that he would run away from the world by hook or by crook if they are asked to meet these experts again.

Please the first thing your job demands is be intelligent but stop looking intelligent to make people afraid of you.

@trakomako I function with periods of symptoms and periods w/o symptoms. It can get worse or better as you age I will be doing a video on these topics. Please make sure that you sub so when this video drops you can be notified right away. Thanks so much for these great questions!

[soymiguelalejandro23]

@trakomako Safe that I am not taking those meds. Thanks for asking.

[soymiguelalejandro23]

@trakomako No they did not. Respiridal all most killed me. I don't trust the drugs as being safe or effective for all people. Some people however very few people are not harmed but actually helped by them. Others it can be a nightmare come to life due to the side effects and then even worse in terms of withdrawal symptoms when they must stop taking them.
