Exploring the lives of one family as they discuss their lived experience coping with chronic mental illness and the challenges of accessing community services.
I think a lot of what is in here is very true. Mental disorders affect not only the survivor dealing with the illness, but the social and familial networks surrounding them. I would argue in some cases even more so.
On video number 4 the father says something along the lines of "we have to be truthfull, its a chronic illness and you have to take your mediction for life."
This isn't true. I've had severe, acute mental illness at the age of 17 and I was just as bad as the guy in the video.
I've magaged to get better and no longer take any medication and work part time. Don't go down the road of being a victim otherwise you'll be in trouble. Take care
