The Recovery Process Printable Version

There is no cure for schizophrenia but people can and do recover. The experience of schizophrenia is particular to each person and as a result, each person’s experience of recovery is unique. What might work well for one person may not work as well for another. It’s vital, therefore to learn about all the different treatments and therapies available to you so that you can play an active role in your own recovery.

 

“We now have the revolutionary insight that schizophrenia, rather than causing an inevitable downhill deterioration, actually entails a slow uphill progression of recovery”
Arnold Kruger, Schizophrenia: Recovery and Hope, 2000
