Dear David,
Before I get into the details, I just wanted to say thank you for writing this. This book needed to happen for various reasons, and I’m honored that I was able to read it. The understanding of mental illness in this country has come a long way, but yet, it also feels very far behind. There is still so much to be discovered, and until then, the current system is all that we have to work with,
And it seems that part of what the current system has turned into has you to thank. Even if you don’t receive the credit you deserve for this change, I’d like to thank you. So many lives have been made better by your actions and ideas.
Schizophrenia exists on my father’s side of the family. My grandmother had it, but none of us knew what it was until she retired to a nursing home and sought therapy. Because of this, I was exposed to schizophrenia as a child, and have understood for a long time that those with schizophrenia are not dangerous people. However, the rest of society doesn’t seem to grasp that yet. They need an inside book, and your book does just that.
Congratulations on making this book a reality!
“This book left me shocked beyond words.”
–Daniel Davis, 5/5 stars on Goodreads
