Look Again: Mental Illness Re-Examined

S6FEED DROP: Dr. Xavier Amador: Insight, Love & LEAP (from Brain Stories)


Listen Later

Look Again is excited to present this candid conversation from our friends at Brain Stories, a documentary series that captures stories of those living with a mental illness, and the people who support them.

In this episode, we hear from Xavier, who was a senior in college when he got a panicked call from his brother. This was his closest brother, his older brother whom he deeply admired, and he was telling Xavier that he had killed their dad. It would take Xavier nearly a decade to truly repair his relationship with his brother, though not for the reasons you would expect. But in the process, what he discovered would change the entire approach to schizophrenia for him, and then millions of others.
