Off my meds and other stories / by Matt Barrell.

"Off My Meds And Other Stories follows on from Matt Barrell’s much-praised Nightmare Scenarios, this time delivering four melancholy yet wit-infused tales based on his experiences with schizophrenia. Missed medical appointments, an ever-building pile of takeaway boxes, a stranger threatening violence and an incomprehensible set of instructions from the devil – Barrell captures the unnerving and alienated perception of the world that schizophrenia can trigger, especially when you’re off your meds, while maintaining a touching self-awareness that highlights the funny and the ridiculous in the situations he presents. It’s impossible not to be moved by the profoundly human stories portrayed in this unique graphic collection."--Provided by publisher.
