صداهای داخل سر من | النور لانگدن
از روی ظاهر قضیه، النور لانگدن درست مانند بقیه دانشآموزهایی بود که با کلی وعده و بدون دغدغه وارد کالج میشدند. این تا وقتی بود که صداهای داخل سر النور شروع به صحبت کردن کردند. این صداهای درونی که در اول بی ضرر بودند به صدهایی ستیزجویانه و دیکتاتوری گونه تبدیل شدند و زندگی او را به یک کابوس تبدیل کردند. بعد از تشخیص به اسکیزوفرنی، او بستری شد، دارو مصرف کرد و بعد توسط سیستمی که نمیدانست چگونه به او کمک کند مرخص شد. لانگدن داستان احساسی مسیر بازگشت طولانی به سلامت ذهنیش را تعریف میکند و میگوید از طریق گوش دادن به صداها بود که توانست زنده بماند.
To all appearances, Eleanor Longden was just like every other student, heading to college full of promise and without a care in the world. That was until the voices in her head started talking. Initially innocuous, these internal narrators became increasingly antagonistic and dictatorial, turning her life into a living nightmare. Diagnosed with schizophrenia, hospitalized, drugged, Longden was discarded by a system that didn't know how to help her. Longden tells the moving tale of her years-long journey back to mental health, and makes the case that it was through learning to listen to her voices that she was able to survive.
