MICHELLE HAMMER SCHIZOPHRENIA ACTIVIST

Michelle speaks about her first experiences with paranoia and refusing help. When Michelle finally does reach out for help she is first misdiagnosed with Bipolar Disorder. If it weren’t for her great college friends or the lacrosse team acting as a support network she feels she never would have survived college. When Michelle is diagnosed with Schizophrenia at age 22 things get better, because now she is being treated for the right illness. Why did she start Schizophrenic.NYC? Book Michelle to find out!
“She doesn’t filter her words, maybe because she’s schizophrenic, or maybe because she’s a New Yorker.”
