What a hero. She is the living embodiment that with proper treatment and great care, severe Schizophrenia never has to become what it is capable of becoming. Way to fight the stigma!!
I've always thought that there should be more money put into researching mental illnesses the right way but I never ever heard anyone's story before. I'm so glad to have watched this video. Elyn's story touched me.
Man. The part where she said that was expected to only do menial jobs all her life, yet, then rattled off her achievements. That's a big fuck you to society and psychs not knowing everything. I love it.
Justice Sotomayor recognizes The School of Athens. A part of my journey is relying on Art pieces to keep my very visual brain focused. Guerica, the Pablo Picasso about the Spanish Civil War has been since day one my America is having a “constitutional crisis” painting.
What should be expected from society, to protect itself if not for reasons altruistic, is that each and every person who enters the criminal justice system should be asked once they are booked," Do you want to speak to a psychiatrist/psychologist?" Or better, the psychologist themselves should do the rounds. I mean seriously, how many mass-shootings is your country going to accept? Its become sort of dark humor from the other side of the border I hate to say, I mean seriously.. be objective.. I've watched so many mass shootings by people who were probably just bipolar or antisocial or borderline in a state of despair. These people don't response to the threat of prison all that well, ahem... nobody has figure it out right across the USA? :). Prison is a deterrent only if you are within sound mind and feel like its better outside of prison than in. Now let's talk therapy. Many more people go into therapy and come out "whole" than go into the justice system and come out "whole". The justice system is actually built to destroy someone mentally and economically. Psychiatry does the work BEFORE more of your family, friends and neighbors get blown away watching a movie in a cinema or at school while enjoying recess. I don't get your country. If terrorists did that .. you would allow your president to go NUTS!!! Yet....100s of Americans commit what is in my opinion domestic terrorism, yet nothing. Not a peep! And finally while I'm ranting... to the mental health society in the USA.. who has by now witnessed thousands of murders by police of UNARMED (or just terribly armed) who are not true threats but in the throes of mental illness: How can you read about it time and time again and then go back to your spreadsheets? Perhaps the people at the highest level of mental health in America should do a few tests and decide if perhaps they themselves have over the years developed psychopathic or sociopathic tendencies. Because frankly... by now...with so many on video I can no longer pretend they are countable, you have to be a little cold. Or, very cowardly.
I agree with everything you've said, and as an American, I am infuriated by it all as well. Part of me wants the country to burn because then it could be rebuilt, and part of me is thinking that it's going to burn regardless but it may be unsalvageable by that point...anyways, ACAB and BLM
@@cro.artwork During the rebuilding stage you will be frightened at what you see. You will be on the sidelines watching everyone build it how THEY want. You will be devastated, and with zero control or say over it. I’d recommend leaving now if I were you 😂
@Egghead Einstein Say, why don’t you get your head checked. You seem a bit out of sorts to me. Just get your evaluation, what’s the harm? You have me worried about you. You seem a tad unhinged and I’d hate for you to harm yourself or others. Please do it, for the sake of public safety and for yourself.

She's my hero. She connected me to the medication my son is now on and has been stable ever since. Simply because she returned my phone call.
May I ask which medication is that
@@josuerizo10 clozapine or Clozeril
Can you please help with the medicine
