Rebecca Lewis thinks back to the movie A Beautiful Mind. "Russell Crowe did a wonderful job of portraying what it's like," she says. "A lot of people think that with schizophrenia you don't have a heart. He had his family, he had his wife and his son, and he loved them."
"We're not crazy," she says. "Medicine and therapy helps things out. We shouldn't be judged like that. But we are."
