Having battled this disease for more than a decade now, he sees that there is an opportunity to express what it means to be schizophrenic in today's world.
His hope is that he can captivate an audience of people who suffer both directly and indirectly from this mental illness. For every schizophrenic person out there, there is a father and a mother. It is quite likely that this same person also may have a sibling or two. Grandparents and aunts and uncles and cousins, not to mention friends, are also to be considered when calculating the impact of this disease.
William Gregg holds a personal belief that by telling the truth, although perhaps in a creative way and fictional manner, many of these people can be helped to understand schizophrenia on a deeper level. The better the understanding of it, the better the ability of all involved to cope and manage life with this disease.
William Gregg has a mental illness, like many other people in this nation and this world. By writing about it, he hopes that his creativity can be a remedy to those who suffer from it. He hopes that people who know people that are schizophrenic will open up the lines of communication and delve deeper into the meaning of their relationships with each other. He hopes that people will gain greater awareness of themselves and others and, thereby, move toward a better perspective and an increased acceptance of those who suffer from schizophrenia.
William Gregg is also the author of Yellow Buses From Costa Rica.показать меньше
