Alycia Schlesinger's Path to Healing from Psychosis and Trauma

If I can take that and I can help people with it, I think you know it's not just people with mental health, but I think when you go through any adversity that's bigger like when you're like I'm done, like this is it and, like I, don't see answers right.
What happens when your mind takes you to places you never thought possible? In this compelling episode of 'Mental Illness Happy Hour', host Paul Gilmartin welcomes back Alycia Schlesinger, a friend from his support group. Alycia bravely shares her experiences with anomalous psychosis and the road to recovery that followed. Her story is one of resilience, finding purpose, and the power of helping others. Alycia opens up about how spirituality has been a cornerstone in coping with guilt and self-loathing.
She also delves into her interactions with the legal system and her contributions to mental health research. The conversation doesn't shy away from sensitive topics like sexuality, gender identity, and childhood trauma, making it a deeply human and relatable discussion. Alycia's journey serves as a beacon of hope for anyone grappling with similar issues, showing that healing and recovery are possible. Tune in for an inspiring and raw conversation that will leave you feeling both moved and hopeful.
