Wow! Thanks for sharing your story on the voices of schizophrenia. Really eye opening. I hope your contribution makes us all empathetic to those who suffer with this illness, as well as depression and bipolar disorder, Ayanna.
It would be great if you could find a similar in-depth segment on the latter two, as well.
Very disturbing and informative. Please continue your relevant research into these highly misunderstood and stigmatized mental illnesses so prevalent in both diagnosed and undiagnosed people today and yesterday. This may help de-stigmatize and sensitize us all to those who live with mental illness.
Thank You!
Will take time out to work on your suggestions!
