About this item

This book explores mental illness in a way that few have ever seen it before. Through the use of poems, essays, clinical notes and blog entries from my website at www.edmontonwriter.com I detail what it was like to be the victim of a cruel joke of nature. A new, proven medication that had helped many people in their struggles with schizophrenia and other forms of psychosis was administered to me in late 2018 and for some odd reason it simply didn't work for me. The worst part was that there was a medication that did work excellently on my condition, but these were time-released medications and the newer medication that didn't work fought with the older, blocking its healing properties. I completely lost my mind and feared danger and humiliation from every corner, at one point thinking someone had come to kill me and my dad.
