Welcome to Rewrite Psychosis
We publish stories by supporters and family members of people with psychosis. Through creative writing, art, audio and video, we show what it means to love, support, and be with someone in extreme mental distress. Many of us feel that psychosis has been highly medicalised, and the voices of carers have become marginalised.
If you would like to help us change this and you have a story to tell, please get in touch.
