An opinion piece based on my book “Zig-Zag Boy” was featured in the Los Angeles Times on the 6th of March, 2023. You can find the piece in it’s entirety here: https://www.latimes.com/opinion/story/2023-03-06/psychosis-mental-health-treatment-elephant-seals
Thank you for this piece, of journalism, of your story, of your son’s. We have a daughter who suffers from a mental illness. It showed itself as she was becoming a teen. She is now 30. The last couple years have been better. I tried, have tried, am trying to find the place you seek. I wish you and your son a peace that is meaningful to you
