paranoia

Story topics: family, paranoia, self

The film was incredible!  It put into words and images what it really feels like to have paranoia.  People, including my family and supervisor, don't really understand what it's like to have thoughts that aren't rational and are so hard to control.  

I love the scene where John is standing in his studio saying over and over, “it's not true."  That is so real to life for so many of us.

I would be homeless or, probably, dead without my family.  I know how much a family can contribute to recovery.  Your entire family is to be commended.  I can’t tell you how grateful I am to John -  his courage, especially, is astounding.  Not to mention his determination.
