Open Minds Quarterly: Spring 2007
$7.00
Volume IX, Issue I
The Spring 2007 issue covered a story about the power of the human touch and having a loving support when you are suffering from depression; a personal account of one writer who took a leap of faith into new science and was able to beat her illness; an essay written by a “noncompliant mental patient” who found ignoring good medical advice and using ‘bad judgement’ to be the right path for her in overcoming her illness; a movie review on the documentary “Unbreakable Minds”; and a poem on a schizophrenic writers hope and ability to be a survivor – a survivor from the stigma of the intolerant, mind-numbing medications, fears, bad relationships, loss of loved ones and the continuing survival from her mental illness. The winners of the 5th Annual Brainstorm Poetry Contest were also featured inside.
