Health Care Costs and Schizophrenia: click here

I reflect on the cost of care for people who are diagnosed with schizophrenia.  I muse about a moving lecture by Eleanor Longdon, PhD, who was once a schizophrenic and now is a clinical psychologist.  She spoke about her own process at the Hearing Voices Conference in Melbourne, Australia.  Eleanor echoed my observations, that the way we manage people who hear voices and suffer this kind of distress is costly and ineffective.
