"You get depressed about your diagnosis and what people think about you. I always think about it, it is a severe mental illness that I have and if you're thinking about these things, in the loneliness that I have and you hear all the sounds, see the shapes... it's very difficult for me." Poet and artist Tilney1 and documentarian Jim Mortram have been making photographs together for several years.
