And even that, like when they get remission, it's not like this simple process, right?

Shocking, surprisingly.

Because you would think that like, oh, if I put them into remission, they should be so happy, jumping up and down for joy, smiling all the time.

And there's some of that.

There's also this phase that almost everybody goes through of profound grief for the life that they've lost.

They recognize, I just lost 30 years of my life to that illness.

Wow.

Why didn't somebody give this to me 30 years ago?

Because I was in college.

I had a girlfriend.

We were going to get married.

And when I became schizophrenic, I lost everything.

I had to drop out of college.

I've never had a girlfriend since.

I lost all my friends.

I couldn't live independently anymore.

I gained all this weight.

I've been a pariah in society for 30 years.

I have had my own struggles with mental illness from a very young age in terms of OCD, later crippling depression, suicidality, all sorts of things.

And I'm happy to go into that at some point if you want to.
