On this episode of The Vault with Dr. Judith, I sit down with Michelle Hammer, an artist, entrepreneur, and advocate living with schizophrenia. We discuss Michelle’s experience with schizophrenia, how her artwork has been a therapeutic outlet for managing anxiety and schizophrenia symptoms, common stereotypes, and how schizophrenia manifests uniquely for each person. We provide tips in these podcasts because not everyone has access to the types of experts we interview. We hope that you learn valuable information and please discuss treatment with your licensed provider as this is not medical advice.
Tune in to hear to Michelle’s firsthand perspective on living with schizophrenia and thriving despite the challenges, and how we can all turn struggles into something positive.
