COLORADO SPRINGS, COLORADO, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, July 31, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ -- Jean Manthei, a distinguished author and experienced AOD counselor, is proud to announce the release of her latest book, Photography and Schizophrenia. Drawing from her personal struggles with schizophrenia and her profound interest in photography, Manthei offers readers a unique perspective on mental illness and creativity, encouraging them to think differently about schizophrenia.
Photography and Schizophrenia delves into the author's journey of coping with schizophrenia and how photography became an integral part of her healing process and creative expression. By skillfully posing thought-provoking questions, Manthei challenges traditional notions surrounding schizophrenia and emphasizes the importance of embracing creativity and artistic vision, regardless of one's diagnosis.
