I write, then, because I know what it’s like to be psychotic. And I know, better than most, how the law treats mental patients, the degradation of being tied to a bed against your will and force-fed medicine you didn’t ask for and do not understand. I want to see that change, and now I actively write and speak out about the crying need for that change. I want to bring hope to those who suffer from schizophrenia, and understanding to those who do not.
I want to bring hope to those who suffer from mental illness and understanding to those who do not.
