In this episode, Tolu and Kristina take the conversation all the way to the UK to discuss the negative symptoms of schizophrenia with Isabelle Butcher, a Ph.D. student at the University of Manchester. What are negative symptoms? How can one feel...but also not feel? How do these symptoms differ from person to person? How do patients with schizophrenia think their symptoms came to be? All of this is discussed in this short but sweet episode. Tolu's movie/book suggestion is 'A Beautiful Mind' and the term of the episode or TOTE is Schizophrenia. We hope you are enjoying the holidays!
