A post at 
Reenie’s Reach reminded me a few days ago about the movie A Beautiful Mind, which had a big impact on me. I recommend it to anyone who wants to understand schizophrenia better. The first time I tried to watch it I couldn’t get past the diagnosis, after having lost touch with my oldest brother due to that devastating disease. I had to stop watching. I finally saw the movie again a couple of months ago, after my husband bought the DVD. Together we watched all the way through.
