Mud Flower: Surviving Schizophrenia and Suicide Through Art shows the perspective of a person who has a serious mental illness, who survives extreme treatments, whose family and the health system have given up on, but who defies all expectations and common beliefs of what is possible. Along the way, the author describes the role of art in her survival, grappling with how the lifeforce can be either nurtured or destroyed by elements in our environment, such as nature, beauty, and art versus dehumanization and coercion.

Imagina, por un momento, vivir día tras día con una nube gris siguiéndote a todas partes, coloreando cada experiencia, cada momento de alegría, con un tinte de melancolía. Esta es la realidad de aquellos que conviven con la distimia.
