My Punished Mind

I am a mental health consumer. This is my memoir about my (past) experiences of being psychotic; having been diagnosed Schizo-affective in April of 2001.</p><p>It is a very vivid description of what I went through for several weeks being psychotic before I was finally hospitalized. I struggled with a relapse but I was stabilized and eventually got my life back together.</p><p>I believe there are not enough books out there that are first hand accounts of psychosis. I think my book helps alleviate a lot of the stigma and misunderstandings of mental illness. And I also believe that I am fortunate to have recovered enough along with my medications to be able to write about it.</p>
