Love your show! I’m a psychology student and find it more interesting to learn about mental health issues from the people who have the diagnosis, and I’m learning a lot listening to your podcast. I just wanted to add one thing, that might be interesting for an episode: I’m on antipsychotics and...Read full review »

I’ve never felt so seen & understood before I found this podcast. the relief I’ve felt listening about the different stories and experiences make this entire thing so much easier for me & I feel much less alone than when I got diagnosed years ago.

I listened to a single episode (Helping Caregivers Navigate Schizophrenia) and it was a beam of hope fired directly into my heart. They reminded me that this illness isn’t just misery and fear and scary pop culture references. It’s life. Its growth. It’s a teacher. It reveals your hidden bravery...Read full review »

Like many reviewers have mentioned this is a very informative podcast. What keeps me listening is how fun and engaging it is. The hosts and their guests have great chemistry and I genuinely enjoy spending time listening to them talk with each other.

Finding this podcast has been so amazing. My spouse has a schizophrenia diagnosis and while they are older and decades past onset there is always so much to learn. And your success as an advocate, expert and hero is medicine in the best way. Representation matters so much!

throughout history white people have re written everything to make black people look like the worst and most dangerous all while the predominant population of serial killers and school shooters are WHITE MEN!! thank you for exposing the lies.

I cannot tell you how helpful that this podcast has been for me. My son was recently diagnosed after 2 years. I’m trying to learn how to support him and get him the help he needs. This podcast has given me hope for his future. Thank you and keep up the amazing work you’re doing.

Great podcast, thanks for being an advocate and educator in the mental health community! I work at an in-patient psych unit and learning more about our patients helps so much with understanding what they’re going through! Keep doing what you’re doing(:

With the loved experience of the host, and the honest life experiences of the guests, this is a critical description of life with a stigmatized mental health condition.

My girlfriend is schizophrenic and your podcast has been outstanding and has helped me understand schizophrenia so much better. I do have 1 question specifically I’d like some information on but the website isn’t very helpful.

Gabe and Rachel are so respectful of one another and so insightful. They speak with grace, candour and generosity. It’s a pleasure to listen to. I have learnt a lot and am very grateful to have this on my podcast rotation!

I have a close family member with Schizophrenia. I listen to every Podcast of Inside Schizophrenia. My sincere thanks to Rachel Star Withers and Gabe Howard. Their education and interviews have given me new understanding, practical tips, and a feeling that I am not alone as I support my loved one.

I have someone close in my life with this disorder and seeing a different perspective that has an open mind that does not portray these people as monsters or like the movie split or other similarities, an open minded podcast that doesnt discriminate people with these symptoms as someone thats...Read full review »

Very informative and enlightening for family and friends that have a loved one diagnose with mental illness. Rachel and Gabe stories send hope to those that are affected by schizophrenia. Keep up the great work!

With both a brother and a friend who suffered from schizophrenia before they died, hearing Rachel speak so openly about her life… I am both saddened to know they can no longer benefit from these podcasts and grateful that others can benefit.

I love it , Listening to them has thought me a lot. I have a 22 year old brother that came to me last year really out the blue and told me he wanted to talk.

I sorta stumbled upon this podcast but it’s perfect!! It’s something I have been looking for. Real people who are living their lives with a mental illness and the hosts are open and genuine. Gives us all hope

This podcast is excellent - always an engaging topic, thoughtfully researched and blended with plenty of lived experience. Thank you for sharing this information with depth, honesty and even occasional humor.
Funky Little Chair via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/25/21
Just listened to the homelessness episode (3/17/21). Why don’t you identify that the medication used to treat treatment resistant schizophrenia is clozapine? It seems like the episode went out of its way NOT to name it. Why? It is life-changing for many people and severely under-utilized.
amtrak fan 123 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/17/21
Interesting. But I feel that this is viewed from a point of a schizophrenic taking medications. And most do not.

Truly never thought part of our parenting journey would be dealing with a diagnosis of schizophrenia, but I’m putting on my big girl panties and we will do anything we can to help our son. Sometimes I don’t want to listen just because it’s hard to continually meet this head-on, but I’m always so...Read full review »

I am forever grateful that I’ve found this podcast, and I can’t imagine the amount of bravery it takes for people with schizophrenia (such as yourself) to not only open up, but to also educate the public. So I wanted to give you a big ‘thank you’ ❤️

I like this program The Most of the SZ podcasts I’ve heard and hope they have a long run. As a survivor myself, I found the show explained the facts well and dispelled the myths even better. I recommend people who have a curiosity, or need, to know more about SZ listen in!
