There's a new interview at Madness Radio:

Breaking Barriers Meaghan Buisson

Is a champion athlete more powerful than madness and psychiatric medications? When Meaghan Buisson said she wanted to break the world record for inline skating, her psychiatrist diagnosed her as psychotic.Two years later, she won the title -- only to face the even greater challenge of self-harm, starvation, and psych meds withdrawal. Buisson now directs BodyWhys Canada, supporting youth with peer education.

I wish I could quit my meds like that.

He told her she was delusional when she said she wanted to be a champion inline skater. In fact, she went on to become an inline skating champion: http://inlineskating.about.com/od/in...sson-Speed.htm

She did say in the interview that if she goes without sleep for several days, she becomes psychotic.
