Yes, I think people think "You're schizophrenic? Why aren't you in a dayroom staring out a window; why aren't you in a hospital? Why aren't you drooling all over yourself from psych meds?" No I have this condition; I've written a book, I practice as a counselor with an LPC, CACIII and do all sorts of other intelligent things--I even have a song on an album that I wrote. I'm a counselor and writer and photographer who happens to have a disability. Heal well, heal responsibly, Jean Manthei, MA, LPC, CACIII
