Silence You

$18.95

One family’s struggles to overcome the challenges of living with a son who has schizophrenia.

Description

For eighteen years, everyone looked up to Oliver. He was smart, funny, good-looking, and a talented artist. Everyone wanted to be his friend. But after his eighteenth birthday, he became morose and moody. He watched familiar faces melt into unknown strangers. Oliver fights to silence the sinister voice that tells him scary things as he tries to exist in a world that no longer makes sense to him. Oliver’s parents and siblings grapple with how to help him find treatment while his delusions, anxiety, and hallucinations intensify. However, finding treatment proves to be even more difficult since Oliver’s mother is bipolar and his father holds onto the denial he has regarding Oliver’s increasingly dangerous behaviors.

Based on the authors’ own experiences, Silence You follows a family coping with crisis. Oliver, the eldest son, is suffering from schizophrenia. As he goes through treatment, his parents and siblings deal with the repercussions. In particular, Oliver’s mother, Elizabeth, must come to terms with her own mental illness and the role it may have played in Oliver’s illness.
