Set for a new marketing campaign, the book tells the heartbreaking story of Smith's struggles to deal with his schizophrenia while ultimately realizing that he also had to find a way to stop drinking. With the encouragement of his mother, he began the long road to sobriety and a more productive life.

"Just as I was relieved of my suicidal thoughts, I believe that everyone who stays sober receives some sort of comparable gift," Smith says. "For others it may be keeping or getting a job. For others it is the saving of a marriage, or getting their driver's license back. There is always something positive which happens. Of course there are also the everyday rewards of being more confident and feeling good,"

"Mom's Idea: A Journey through Madness" offers readers an in-depth account of an average person suffering from schizophrenia; it chronicles the frequently changing ups and downs of dealing with a debilitating disease and the compounding problem of alcoholism.
