Recovery from Mental Illness

What is Recovery? RECOVERY: overcoming the effects of one’s mental illness and living a satisfying and hopeful life.

Recent advances in medical science have proven that with the right combination of treatment and services people with mental illness can overcome the effects of the disease and lead full lives that reflect their dreams. As with any illness, the individual with mental illness plays the central role to achieve recovery.
