In this episode join Kody and Kit as they explore the concept of insight when it comes to mental illness. A lack of insight, often called anosognosia, is something that a lot of those with schizophrenia spectrum illnesses deal with, especially before they get help. Both Kody (who lives with schizophrenia) and Kit (who lives with schizoaffective disorder) have dealt with anosognosia, but in different ways, which is what this episode is all about!

So enjoy this fun exploration of two different experiences and let us know what you think!

This week on the Schiz & Giggles podcast, your hosts Kody Green (a schizophrenia advocate) and Kit Wallis (a schizoaffective disorder advocate) explore the differences between schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder. While the two mental health conditions have a lot of similarities, there are key things that separate them and Kit and Kody have a conversation about just that!
We apologize for the delay on posting. This podcast will now be posted weekly on Fridays at 12 pm CST, going forward!
