We Are Functioning Podcast

We sent our son off to college and he came home with schizophrenia.

That was 20 years ago.

Let’s face it, we all think our families are crazy!

Come along for the ride with us as we discuss how our family is Functioning as we search for a cure for schizophrenia.

ABOUT THE PODCAST

We’re a family creating a safe space to remove the stigma of schizophrenia

Listen, we are not doctors. We’re a family that’s had a crash course in schizophrenia.

Most of us are fascinated with the arts and creativity, what we may not consider is how closely creativity/brilliance and schizophrenia connect us all.

One percent of the population (3.2 million) Americans are living with schizophrenia, it’s pretty likely that you have a family member
(immediate or distant) connected to this disease. If not, we have seen how this illness has created a homelessness crisis across the globe.
