Guest: Jeffrey Lieberman,M.D., author of Malady of the Mind

Dr. Jeffrey Lieberman draws on his four-decade career to illuminate the past, present, and future of schizophrenia.

Of the many myths and misconceptions that obscure our understanding of schizophrenia, the most pernicious is that there is no effective treatment or cure. Though that may have been true in the past, the current reality couldn’t be more different: today’s treatments have the potential to be game-changing—and often lifesaving.

For the first time in history, we can effectively treat schizophrenia, limiting its disabling effects—and we’re on the verge of being able to prevent the disease’s onset entirely.

----

We ask about:

What can families do to get more psychiatrists on board? 

Hope for today’s young people who are in First Episode programs after their first psychosis. 

 Is true recovery possible or what do you mean by recovery?

What can families do to promote housing that heals/works for people like our sons? Why is there so little of it?

The leap that cannabis can cause not only psychosis but also schizophrenia. 

Assisted Outpatient Treatment and the right to treatment despite

Anosognosia.

…and much more!
