At the beginning of the chapter, a woman who suffers from schizophrenia described her story in her own words. What analogy did she use to describe how this disorder affects her life?
a) She says she lives in an invisible closet where the walls are imprisoning and the darkness is terrifying.
b) She feels as if there is a dark cloud following her everywhere, and like
rain clouds she never knows when it will rain on her.
c) Every day she struggles to live her life as normally as she can but she feels like a car with a failing battery, never knowing when she can't get started.
d) The overwhelming feeling of dread she feels is similar to riding a roller
coaster every day; she never knows whether she is in for a slow ride up
or a wild ride down.
