My friends fell away. I was walled by a screen of prejudice and fear from the general public. Was this to be a life sentence? Was there a way to escape from the straitjacket of serious mental illness? This is my story, the story of how I learned to survive. Is it success? You be the judge".

Get ready to embark on an intimate tour of the dark recesses and haunting landscapes of a schizoaffective mind. My Schizophrenia: One Man's Struggle With Mental Illness is a telling of the author's life journey through madness and mayhem on his personal path to redemption. John U. Gunter is an entrepreneur and author who lives in Callahan County, a few miles east of Abilene in West Texas. John owns and operates a furniture repair business, and writes novels and short stories - but he also suffers from a condition that, left untreated, becomes debilitating and often dangerous; a mental disease known as schizoaffective disorder. My Schizophrenia is John's telling of his life as one who has suffered from schizoaffective disorder from early childhood through an adolescent life of crime leading to a criminal career, personal loss, a life on the streets, a carousel of hospitalizations and multiple incarcerations culminating in a tale of redemption that continues to unfold. In these pages, John draws a distinction between schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder as he chronicles the onset and progression of his illness through the years. He shares intimate details of his experiences and thought processes as a mentally ill person. He explains the effects of his illness on relationships with family and society and exposes many of the hellish hallucinations and strange thought processes that led him into darkness and isolation for years at a time. John also reveals how medication, therapy and love brought him to redemption, and how he uses coping skills along with medication and counseling to help him overcome the downward pull of mental illness as he strives to maintain a successful life and career. John's message is one of order arising from chaos, hope from the depths of despair and happiness in place of hopelessness.

A father reflects on the rich life of his son, who died suddenly at twenty-six after living with schizophrenia. On the morning of Boxing Day 2009, the poet Fraser Sutherland and his wife found their son, Malcolm, dead in his bedroom in their house. He was twenty-six and had died from a seizure of unknown cause. Malcolm had been living with schizophrenia since the age of seventeen. Fraser’s respectful narration of Malcolm’s life — his happiness as well as his sufferings, his heroic efforts to calm his troubled mind, his readings, his writings, his experiments with religious thought — is a master writer’s attempt to give shape and dignity to his son’s life, to memorialize it as more than an illness. And in writing about his son’s life, Fraser creates his own self-effacing memoir — the memoir of a parent’s resilience through years of stressful care. Fraser Sutherland, one of Canada’s finest poetry critics and essayists, died shortly after completing this book. A RARE MACHINES BOOK

Reshma was diagnosed with schizophrenia when she was 22. As she says, she didn’t ‘even know what the darn word meant’. In this extraordinary, first-of-its-kind account she writes about her experience of living with therapies and medication, struggling to make sense of her situation, surviving suicide attempts, finding support groups -- and finally coming into her own. With rare candour and clarity she recounts her sense of being ‘different’ as a teenager, while rebelling against all attempts to pigeon-hole and discipline her. Her will to overcome the tremendous odds she faced enabled her to gain unexpected insights into her condition, and her story, told in utterly unsparing prose, is courageous, powerful, eloquent and poignant.
