She is engaging in the paranoia delusion that her husband is a murderer, and she is having difficulties discerning the reality of photos and video works published by a performance artist, James, who was her former classmate. After being admitted, the doctor diagnoses Jessie with schizophrenia. Although the hospital discharges her after a few weeks, she ends up staying for another two weeks and opting for injections rather than oral medication.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe story brings together the shared realities of Jessie and her fellow patients through a series of group portraits that serve as a universal mirror to herself. Meng is Jessie's roommate; she is addiction to candy and never speaks. Zen is a female biology professor who gives Jessie a brief life lesson and inspires her to seek a divorce. Ikhlas is a Muslim boy with whom Jessie gets along well; a year later she finds out (via Facebook) that he has died. Dasa is a seventyish man, intent on lewd act with her; ultimately, he is discharged earlier than her. Brian is an aggressive self-involved sociopath who regularly tries to escape and is caught and returned.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis often-surreal memoir accounts for how one's sanity addresses and overcomes madness such as schizophrenia. Jessie voluntarily ceases the pills and lies to her doctor for more than a year and achieves recovery. She finds out just how thin the line is between the mania and depression and explores the trigger and the motive to get healed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 110\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.26 x 8 x 5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 28, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48290320056569,"sku":"9780228821694","price":14.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/NZX3BebpUv9780228821694.webp?v=1776282996","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/jessie-the-galaxy-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
