Author Recounts Raising A Son With Schizophrenia
Miriam Feldman's new memoir, 'He Came In With It: A Portrait of Motherhood and Madness' recounts raising a son with schizophrenia.
According to HuffPost, Feldman says that when one child βis on fire,β the other siblings are marginalized.
She also says it's extremely difficult to navigate a 'broken' medical system not set up to support people with mental illnesses.
Feldman says the medical profession sees its job as stabilizing schizophrenia's bad symptoms with medication--and that's it.
