A Day in the Life of a Schizophrenic

As a person suffering from schizophrenia, I often feel the stigma attached to people with mental illness. This made me afraid to go out on my own and I often get a sense of isolation as a result.

Through this project, I intend to show you a glimpse of my life by photographing some of the activities that I do as I go about my daily life - have lunch, listen to music, buy things from the shop, visit the toilet, water the plants, surf the Internet, watch television and go out for a movie.
