This is a very moving video of a student's experience with schizophrenia and recovery.
"To all appearances, Eleanor Longden was just like every other student,
heading to college full of promise and without a care in the world. That
was until the voices in her head started talking. Initially innocuous,
these internal narrators became increasingly antagonistic and
dictatorial, turning her life into a living nightmare. Diagnosed with
schizophrenia, hospitalized, drugged, Longden was discarded by a system
that didn't know how to help her. Longden tells the moving tale of her
years-long journey back to mental health, and makes the case that it was
through learning to listen to her voices that she was able to survive".
