She is 34 when the first psychosis suddenly occurs. The diagnosis is "schizophrenia." This severe illness, which has a great destructive power, is still heavily stigmatized by fear and shame, and there is a significant lack of understanding, even though millions of people in Germany are directly or indirectly affected by it. Clara Feldmann experiences the harsh social consequences of this mix of illness effects, ignorance, and rejection. She loses everything: her job, friends, her apartment, her retirement savings. Life was over. But should society allow people to fall so deeply? Feldmann recounts how she completely spiraled down, giving voice to doctors, psychologists, lawyers, parents, and former colleagues. She calls for a broad debate on mental illnesses and an end to discrimination. She appeals to the social responsibility of society.
