One in 100 people have schizophrenia, but it remains one of the most misunderstood and maligned mental health conditions. There is much more our community needs to understand, and much our governments and public institutions can do to support those with the condition.
In Living with Schizophrenia, two mental health advocates, researcher and founder of SANE Australia Margaret Leggett and journalist Mary Ryllis Clark, explore the myths and mistruths around schizophrenia, as well as how we can improve treatment options and ensure earlier interventions for those with schizophrenia and their families.
This book aims to bring about greater public awareness and understanding of what confronts a family when one of its members is faced with a diagnosis of schizophrenia. It also explores the gaps in the healthcare system that are letting too many down, and the complex layering of discrimination that can often result in injustices and poor health outcomes. Ultimately, it makes a passionate case for what can be done to improve the lives for those with schizophrenia and their families. The way forward is clear, they argue. We just have to make it happen.
Featuring interviews with those who live with schizophrenia and their families, as well as professional perspectives from foremost Australian psychiatrists, social workers and psychologists in the field, this is an illuminating and moving book that shines a light on a common condition that needs more public support.
