BC Schizophrenia Society is running their #BustAMythBC contest again this year, 2022!
To mark #MentalillnessMay, they called out to people with lived experience of psychosis, including schizophrenia, to create some content.
I participated in 2020, and now again nednednerB the Schizophrenic is here for #schizophreniafacts and to #smashstigma

Transcript:
"People with schizophrenia should be hidden from view.
What are the repercussions of openness regarding mental health experience?
People are reinforced to hide their struggles and pain because of stigma, fear, violent social reaction.
In historical fact, people with mental illness have been very violently oppressed by non-democratic societies.
For example, families and friends don't want to accept or talk
about a person they care about in terms of a mental health diagnosis.
I'm not afraid of the word schizophrenia. let's talk about it.
In 2022, more acceptance and more inclusion are still worthy goals.
Thanks BC Schizophrenia Society.
Bust A Myth 2022."
