I must say that when I came upon this movie I was curious. I struggled for 20 years with acceptance of my illness. When I finally made the decision to start medication on a consistent basis, my life changed. I would never in a million years go back to being unmedicated. In my experience, going off of my medication leads to a downward spiral very quickly. And unlike what I found depicted in this film, it leads to serious symptoms. And it can take quite a bit of work to become balanced again. I was appalled by some of the comments made by individuals in film. One woman going as far as to say it is a spiritual issue. Clearly she has never suffered from mental illness. I feel that this film could be very dangerous for individuals that struggle with maintaining their health and balance. I thank God everyday for modern medicine, to think where I would be spending my life in a different century makes me shudder.
