Kristina Morgan's Journey Through Schizophrenia and Recovery

I think that I think- and sometimes a little bit of what you're saying is, sometimes we take things for granted, but people who struggle with mental illness look at these things and they're a gift.
Ever wondered what life is like for someone with schizophrenia? Kristina Morgan, author of 'Mind Without a Home: A Memoir of Schizophrenia', shares her raw and poignant experiences on this episode of 'One Hour AT A Time'. Hosted by Mary Woods, this conversation takes you through the chaotic and fragmented world inside Kristina's mind, starting from her childhood and moving through her tumultuous teen years when hallucinations began to take over.
She opens up about how she turned to alcohol as a way to silence the punishing voices in her head, only to find herself battling substance abuse alongside her mental illness. Kristina's journey is a rollercoaster of highs and lows, filled with moments of despair and surprising resilience. Despite the challenges, she found a way to manage her co-occurring disorders and even discovered the joy of travel—something she once thought impossible.
Her story underscores the importance of a strong support system and family-centered recovery. In this episode, Kristina also talks about the coping mechanisms that have helped her regain control over her life. Her memoir offers a window into the struggles and triumphs of living with schizophrenia and substance abuse, making it a must-listen for anyone seeking to understand these complex conditions.
