Kristin Bell's Video Blog on Schizophrenia Has Moved

We want to announce that we've created a separate, independent blog for Kristin Bell. Her past entries have all been moved to this new blog, and from now on she will be posting entries on the new blog. We've done this so that Kristin's new postings are more noticeable to her audience.

Kristin Bell's New Video Blog

Kristin Bell who we discovered on YouTube last month has joined our team as a video reporter and video blogger. We enjoyed her positive and clear communication in the video blogs that she's done in the past, and so we thought it would be great if she could apply those skills to helping us. Kristin is doing well in controlling her schizophrenia and taking medications, getting therapy and getting a lot of family support - all of which are helping her in coping with the disorder. These are the approaches that all the researchers we've talked to have said are good ways to manage schizophrenia so as to maximize recovery. Kristin will be focused on helping us find new videos on the Internet that are highly educational and related to schizophrenia (as well as finding positive video blogs from other people who have schizophrenia), and will also be doing a weekly video blog herself. Kristin is happy to get your emails with questions or comments - you can email her at the following email address: schizhelper@gmail.com Please let her know what you'd like to see covered in her video reporting.

I also take Haldol. I've tried once another medication but it didn't work for me. The only problem in my life now with taking haldol, is I've tried to lose weight, but have failed. No matter what I do. I am 100 lbs overweight. I also have a condition which is exasperated by being overweight.Other than that, I really like Haldol. For a time, I think I did take medication for my family. I think it helps them. I do think better.

Kristin, my family thinks you are wonderful and admire you for your hard work. You are a motivation to us and we have introduced you to Tommy, my brother, diagnosed paranoid schizophrenic. He's been doing so well for a long time now but my father continues to be negative toward my brothers condition. What advice can you give me? Thanks, john
