| Sliding into the Rabbit Hole? Would She Ever Return?On the surface, Alice Laxton seems no different from any other college girl: bright, inquisitive, excited about the life ahead of her. But for years, a genetic time bomb has been ticking away. Because of Alice?s near-genius intelligence, teachers and counselors have always made excuses for her ?little idiosyncrasies.? But during a stress-filled senior year at college, a new world of voices, visions, and unexplainable ?knowledge? causes Alice to begin to lose her grip on reality.As Alice?s schizophrenia progresses, she experiences a disturbing religious ?awakening,? believing that God and angels and demons are speaking to her. When others attempt to intervene, Alice is subjected to a wide range of ?treatments? even more frightening and painful than her illness.Powerfully raw and brutally honest, Finding Alice is a story of individual suffering and hope, a family?s shared ordeal, and a search for true mental and spiritual healing. |
