Comment:

This mix documents my mental Illness; I suffer from schizoaffective disorder. It is a narrative--in a non linear aesthetic order--from my first psychotic break up to the present, more rehabilitated me. When I am sick, I tend to gravitate towards certain songs. When I hear voices--at one time or another--these songs have been racing through my brain.

This is a really incredible mix. Some of these tracks just frighten me slightly (I'd be interested in knowing which portion of those Residents tracks you put in). Overall, though, this sounds like a really awesome piece of work. Good job.

Phil Ochs was schizophrenic as well.
