The Take Charge Helpline
Recovery
Recovery is a process, beginning with diagnosis and eventually moving into successful management of your illness. Successful recovery involves learning about your illness and the treatments available, empowering yourself through the support of peers and family members, and finally moving to a point where you take action to manage your own illness by helping others.
Science has greatly expanded understanding and treatment of severe mental illnesses. Once forgotten in the back wards of mental institutions, people with disabilities have a real chance at reclaiming full, productive lives, but only if they have access to the treatments, services and programs vital to recovery.
