United Kingdom2 years ago - Thank you
This podcast is helping me accept and understand so much of what I’m going through as well as my family. I grew up with a mom diagnosed and on and off meds. Now my sister and myself were recently diagnosed with schizophrenia and it’s been a truly terrifying experience. Thank you so much for sharing and showing hope for everyone involved.

Finding out there are actually other moms that have gone through the exact same misery and tragedy that my family and I have was life-changing. I sleep better and feel less alone. Thank you for bringing this into the light so that we can all find answers together- and move forward! I would love to someday tell my story and be heard as well I am sure that it is extremely validating and comforting to find your voices! Amazing books as well! Thank you, and bravo!

I’m so thankful for these real life moms and all the information they share! I’m currently in crisis with my son who has schizophrenia and I’ve gained so much knowledge to help me & his dad move forward. We currently are starting the process for guardianship. Our son has been homeless for several months now. Thank you ladies, keep up the good fight🙏❤️
