Recently, I heard a colleague talk about The Recovery Model in Mental Health.  I always take notes and ask for copies of PowerPoints from excellent speakers.  Here are a few points he made...
  • Everyone has, is or will be in Recovery for some type of illness, grief, or crisis
  • Anyone can Recover
  • Not everyone does Recover
  • We can't predict who will or won't Recover...No really, we can't
  • Recovery is highly individualized
  • Success in Recovery seems to include:
    • Skills
    • Supports
    • Resources
