What if .. when you spoke … noone could hear you?
You are standing in a room full of people screaming at the top of your lungs and people just walk through you?
The Invisible Plague tells the story of mental illness and it’s history in society. We have evolved in our understanding, but these people get dismissed and often describe their existance as ‘invisible’ to the world.
In our world of the ‘normal’ people here ‘mental illness’ and everything after that is ignored or glossed over as ’symptomatic’. We stay connected to our labels as a society and are strangling the life out of our own people.
That is the story of the textbook ..
but most are to afraid to listen - including those who study the illness.
