Update on "Beautiful Madness"

[nancylebov]

Remember that totally infuriating article about a beautiful (i.e. thin) schizophrenic young woman and how awful it was that she gained weight on the only drug which restored her sanity?

Paul McAleer of Big Fat Blog contacted the magazine about the truth of the article, and here's the follow-up. The article is probably pretty much fiction.

I recommend reading the rest of the letters to Prospect (the magazine that published the original artical)--it's quite reassuring that all of them were about the article being outrageous.
