Thrive with Schizophrenia

Kristen Stone lives with, and is now thriving with, schizophrenia. She lived in denial of the disorder for nine years and was hospitalized thirteen times. However, she is now living a full life which includes peace, joy, and love. Kristen wrote the book Thrive With Schizophrenia to share what she learned about the disorder from her personal experience, the experience of others, and evidence-based research. Each chapter is meant to address the different aspects of life for those living with this illness. These chapters contain information that include defining and exploring the symptoms of schizophrenia, what to expect when going to the hospital, and healthy eating methods while managing antipsychotic weight gain.
