Have you ever felt completely detached to the world around you? Where you lose control over your senses and your thoughts and your actions? Where your mind is so impaired that you break away from external reality? What would that feel like? How would you react? And how would the external world treat you? With kindness, empathy, and understanding? Or with stigma, judgment, and isolation?
In this episode of the Screwed Up Moments Podcast, we are going to be exploring these questions with the story of Rachel, someone who suffers from psychosis.
