Well, I'm very excited about this.
Yeah, I'm a freelance journalist based in Detroit.
I've been doing creative writing for really about 22 years now, ever since undergrad.
And over the years, I've got a number of pieces of both journalism and creative writing published.
And right now I'm working on a memoir.
Well, my knowledge all comes from lived experience, though I've done a number of journalism articles surrounding mental health and disability over the years.
Right now, I'm contributing to a Michigan newspaper chain for issue media group for its Michigan Mental Health Series.
So for that, I'm doing stuff like research on CMHs, community mental health organizations here in Michigan.
But my primary knowledge comes from lived experience.
And just over the years, I've gained a lot of insight, I think, into living with a serious mental illness.
Correct.
Yes.
Well, I think people definitely associate with psychosis with men.
And the stereotype is men who become psychotic are violent.
Even though so many people with schizophrenia are victimized rather than the victimizers.
It's far more common for people to be victimized.
But yes, I think people don't associate a history of psychosis with women, though I've also dealt with anxiety and depression.
And those are definitely associated with women, I think.
It was a really terrifying process.
And I remember telling a therapist while I was in college, it feels like there's a hole in my chest and the hole hurts.
