Customer Reviews
Informative and insightful
As both a medical professional someone with a family member who has experienced psychosis, this is an excellent and informative podcast that provides insight from patient, family, and provider perspectives. Highly recommend listening for anyone who has been affected by psychosis, whether firsthand or as an observer.
Very Helpful
Very helpful podcast. Going through this with a family member at this time. There isn't a lot of information and first hand recovery stories. This was so wonderful to hear and gives hope to us through this time. Thank you!
