Rom-Com 'Words on Bathroom Walls' Shows Schizophrenia In a Different Light
What happened: A new movie is highlighting what it’s really like to live with schizophrenia. “Words on Bathroom Walls” is in theaters now, and the film — based on Julia Walton’s book about a teenager struggling with mental illness — may be the film those living with the condition have been waiting for. Why? Because the film doesn’t glorify mental illness. It doesn’t romanticize it, and the film’s protagonist isn’t portrayed as deranged, violent or crazy.
