I found this book to be helpful in understanding the stigma behind schizophrenia. The author did an excellent job in explaining how people suffering from schizophrenia sometimes get labeled by other medical professionals unfairly. This needs to stop and I am glad that the author is standing up for this and sharing her personal story.

It's written well. Informative. Learned a few things but thought author was placing to much emphasis on medication. Not everyone has to be on meds to control disorder especially if side effects is so severe one loses reality. Regardless of my disagreement/opinion I would still buy another book by this author.

5.0 out of 5 stars Pretty decent book about schizophrenia
Reviewed in the United States on July 20, 2021
I wish it had more information about beneficial things such as reading, writing, and socializing for schizophrenia. The book just talked about the basics. Still highly informative though. I overall liked the book. I really like the volunteering info with NAMI.

This book is poorly written and seems more like a copy and paste of the generic information you can find from Google. Don't waste your money!

Crappy book. Lots of information is missing. Gained nothing by reading it. Waste of money and time. Sorry for the harsh review, but this is a basic rip off.
