    I enjoyed watching your video! This is a topic that is of particular interest to me and you did a really nice job. Do you have any thoughts on why schizophrenia is one of the most misunderstood disorders?

    Hi Zoey, this was a fantastic presentation! Do you think it is “easier” for schizophrenia to be portrayed negatively as opposed to other disorders like depression or anxiety?

    Hi, Zoey! Your presentation gave a lot of insight into the accuracy of schizophrenia as represented in the media. Is there a reason that mental illnesses, like schizophrenia, have been portrayed that way, or is it just a lack of understanding from the producers that causes the negative portrayals?
