Schizophrenia is covered with a halo of romance. The image of an artist who sees in reality his ghostly double, inspired by the mysterious voices, is repeatedly duplicated in fiction and films. And how does schizophrenia flows among ordinary people living, seemingly, in an unremarkable life? What is schizophrenia in fact - the result of organic or genetic damage or the manifestation of hidden spiritual capabilities that rebel from the boredom of everyday life?
This is told by the book by Esme Weissnyun Van. Although, in fairness, the writer cannot be called an ordinary person. Realizing the features of her psyche, she embarked on the path ... No, not healing. Complete healing in its case is impossible. But she embarked on the path of analysis and understanding what was happening to her, and this in itself was victory.
In this difficult journey, she not only survived several hospitalizations, bouts of panic and paranoia, a passion for suicide, but also mutual love and professional recognition. She was able to build a strong relationship with her loved one and proved to the whole world her professional worth. Her experience gives hope to many people with a similar diagnosis. And to everyone who is used to considering themselves "normal", once again reminds of how a shaky line it separates us from a mental illness, the causes of which are often non -incomprehensible
