Recovery and mental health

Slade, Mike
Abstract
The term 'recovery' has become widely used in mental health systems internationally. Empirical and conceptual approaches have been used to differentiate aspects of recovery. However, it can be most useful to consider two contrasting understandings: clinical recovery, meaning recovery from mental health difficulties, and personal recovery, meaning recovery with mental health difficulties. Both meanings are underpinned by sets of values and create role expectations for mental health professionals and for people using mental health services. The distinction between the two meanings reflects a debate about the core purpose of mental health systems. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2017 APA, all rights reserved) (Source: chapter)
