Trapped

Where no one understands

Split mind,

in a split world.

Inescapable voices

A fantasy world

Unable to get away

Clouded by voices

Nonexistent people

Crazy

Different

Think about it.

Every sunset is different

Each Snow Flake is different.

Each Person is Different.

So why are they all treated the same?

A one size fits all approach to the treatment of Schizophrenia will not work,

Because every patient is different.

Schizophrenia

Medications

Electro-Shock Therapy

Psychotherapy doesn’t work

Some children are affected

Adults are the main target.

Affected for most of their lives.

Some become homeless

Many live in homes, or mental hospitals the rest of their lives.

There are a lucky few who live with their families

For a lucky few, medication controls their symptoms

Different Medications

Some work,

Some fail

Different doses may be needed

Sometimes varieties of medications

Each case is different

No treatment is the same

No reaction is the same

everyone

is

different

Slow.

Watching Themselves live.

Depressed.

Alone

Service project

Clinical

Different Units

3 hours

Shadowing Nurses

Overall Experience?
