Thanks so much for posting this. It provides so much information about my son's mental illness--and does it much more articulately and succinctly than I ever could. I didn't know this was on Youtube. Now I can forward this interview to my ex-husband and older son in hopes of providing them with a greater understanding of the disorder sand some of Tom's difficulties and behaviors. Again. thanks.
