In a society intrigued by what is out there, as reflected in Star
Trek's opening line, "To boldly go where no man has gone before
..." A shift in focus has occurred from what is "out there" to what
lies within us. In the early days of our knowledge of mental
illness, our discomfort with it was showcased by asking, "Who is
responsible for causing mental illness?" We accept the fact that
mental illness does exist, but what does living with a mental
illness, such as schizophrenia, look like from the inside facing
out? Living with Shadows steps into the world that someone with
mental illness inhabits every day to offer a no-holds-barred
portrait of living with schizophrenia. This memoir of author Eric
Fraser explores both the times when the disease wins-immersing him
in the realities of hallucination and delusion-to sweet moments of
victory, allowing him the clarity to live a full life with a family
and a career. No mask and gown is required to come on this journey
into the inner world of schizophrenia. Fraser valiantly struggles
to prove that he is not his disease and that it does not define
him. Living with Shadows considers how to live a full life with
this disease once and for all.
