  • Episode 048 - INTERPRETATION OF REALITY
    Host Jonathan Harnisch draws on his personal struggle with Tourette’s syndrome and schizophrenia to demystify mental illness.
    In this episode: Accept the challenge that Schizophrenia presents to the consumer right here and now! Take the bull, the Schizophrenia, by the horns. Take it on—embrace it—laugh at it when you can. I hope you’ll feed on what I feed on which is hope and peace of mind—always yearning for it until I catch a glimpse of it. And I do. -JH

Be well, friends. The hard times will pass if there are any in your quest. Just have to do your best!

  • Episode 039 - EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON
    Relaxing outdoors underneath a rain and thunderstorm in New Mexico, Jonathan discusses several topics and shares some new tools he's been using to maintain recovery from schizoaffective disorder. The idea of schizophrenia or any such tragedy being a result of the universe "teaching lessons," as in, does everything in life "happen for a reason?" is brought to the surface in this episode. The idea that we, as unique individuals might be the ones who give "meaning" to things in general. Mental illness can be quite a roller coaster ride, but keeping hope and faith alive is key to recovery and peace of mind, however people define what it is for them that they want out of life in general.
