Program Title: Pride and peril
Description: Will Hall is a 43-year-old man who has been diagnosed with schizophrenia. Doctors have prescribed medication for him. “But Hall would rather value his mentally extreme states than try to suppress them, so he doesn’t take his meds. Instead, he practices yoga and avoids coffee and sugar.� Will is also a member of The Icarus Project—an Icarista—and is involved in Mad Pride activities. He’s also hosted Madness Radio for three years. [Source: Newsweek]
