What is it like to live with voices, visions, and different realities?
What do these experiences mean to you? How can we learn to accept and
live with who we are? What are ways to cope with fear, trauma,
isolation, and overwhelming responses? Are there positive, creative,
and spiritual sides to what we go through? What is mental diversity
all about?
Will Hall was diagnosed with schizophrenia and is an internationally
recognized mental diversity educator, advocate, and counselor.
