Kimberly Nash sits down with Dale Walsh, Ivy League Scholar turned mental health advocate and 50-year schizophrenia survivor for a raw conversation about divine delusions, cannabis controversies, and why he calls his diagnosis a "psychic affect spectrum."

This episode cracks open:

• ​🔴 The hallucination that shattered his god complex (and sparked recovery).
• ​🟢 Why 80% of patients reject treatment (hint: it’s not stubbornness).
• ​🟣 How to talk to a loved one in denial without triggering a crisis.
