Evan talks candidly with Isabella Fels, who shares her experience of OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder) and Schizophrenia. In her traumatic history a light has shown at the end of a long tunnel in Isabella's poetry and writing which she shares some of and also is linked to below. Isabella tells of her poor treatment by her peers in her youth and of her bad living conditions, but also of some of the guideance of Schizy Inc and SIDAS which has helped her to express herself and feel more included in a community.
