Opis

People with mental health conditions - they are often unseen and their suffering ignored. When they finally become visible, they are often seen in a bad light of having chronic mental health conditions with little chance of cure or displaying violent behavior. This is actually not the case. Despite having to deal with the stigma surrounding people with mental health conditions, people with mental illnesses can recover and they do possess personal strengths or capabilities. In this book, the capabilities of people with mental health conditions are portrayed in the form of a research study that examines the impact of these capabilities with mental health recovery.
