Rediscover Holly's Passion

Holly has schizophrenia, which typically involves delusions, hallucinations, unusual physical behavior, and disorganized thinking and speech. Common symptoms include paranoid thoughts and hearing voices; in her case, she talks to herself with other voices, including those named Angel, Dimond, and Ophelia. She is self-deprecating, pessimistic, and outspoken. Originally from a small rural town in the Midwest, she is estranged from her parents but is close to an older sister. Holly used to enjoy painting but gave it up due to lack of confidence. She tends to avoid social gatherings because of anxiety about having an episode. A traumatic experience in high school when a classmate spread rumors about her led to trust issues.
