Great DVD as rated by those who actually live it
Reviewed as excellent by many folks with mental illness. I wanted to use this DVD as a training tool for staff that work with mentally ill clients but may have limited experience with this population. Before doing that however I wanted to see whether it represented, from a client standpoint, an realistic portrayal of their experiences. I had a group of approximately 15 clients with various types of mental illness view the DVD. A couple of clients found it too difficult to watch and walked out. One client stated he hoped that all families that had a mentally ill family member could watch this video. Another stated it hit close to home. I hope this DVD will serve as a useful tool to increase understanding and empathy of a serious illness that is often feared and not well understood.

Surprisingly engaging
This was a much better film than I expected. It was a recommendation for class and I didn't really expect much. But, it was well done. Solid production, well researched, and it had engaging vignettes.

Call Me Crazy
The movie was in segments similar to a documentary but presented as short films. The acting and directing were great. For anyone studying mental diseases, this CD is a valuable one to add to your collection. It includes bipolar, chronic depression, PTSD and schizophrenia. I especially enjoyed the segment on bipolar which clearly shows the two different aspects of the disease. It shows the dangers to self and others and the stigma of the affliction if untreated.

A must see for everyone!!
Such an amazing film and depiction of mental illness and how difficult it can be in so many ways. A truly great portrayal of the raw truth of mental illness. I wish for everyone to see this film to rid the sigma that has been attached for far too long. 💚💚💚

Great montage!
There are 5 people with various mental health issues whose stories are revealed. It is great and I used it as a reference in my health group to discuss specific mental health struggles and diagnoses as well as how it translates into life/behavior.
