Carlos Laurrari describes himself primarily as a mental health advocate. He’s pursuing a law degree at the University of Michigan and a policy degree at Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government. In the spare time he somehow still has, Carlos plays music with his band, Fogdog. Carlos also has a background as a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. He’s 35 now and, as he tells NAMI’s Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Ken Duckworth, a lot has changed in his world since he was first diagnosed with schizophrenia at age 23.
This conversation was part of Dr. Duckworth’s research for the book, You Are Not Alone: The NAMI Guide to Navigating Mental Health--With Advice from Experts and Wisdom from Real People and Families. Hear more episodes of this and other podcasts and nami.org/podcast.
