CRAZY is a collection, or a collage, of expressions through art that give an inside view of living with mental illness. Four years in the making, CRAZY includes hundreds of pieces of art and text from more than 150 artists and authors—all of them impacted by mental illness in one way or another.

Description

The book is divided into eight sections, where these creative and personal pieces are supplemented by facts, figures, and general information relevant to the particular kind of mental illness being presented:

  • bipolar
  • suicide
  • schizophrenia
  • OCD
  • eating disorders
  • ADHD/ADD
  • trauma
  • recovery

As it seems most crazy people are artists of some kind, we decided art could be a starting point to fight the fear of stigma and step out to use our voices. We came to understand we aren’t victims. We aren’t alone—with treatment and support, we can live full and purposeful lives. We are exceptional people with individual talents beyond the scope of normal. We are characters. Artists, writers! Poets! Friends, parents, lovers, teachers, mentors. We are you.
