Is employment necessarily therapeutic for people who have experienced mental health problems?
Abstract
The assumptions on which many articles in A life in the day are based include the idea that work is good for you. This underplays the real life experiences of many people (and not just mental health service users) who have found that work is sometimes very bad for them indeed. Phillip Hill explores the relationship between work and mental health and the qualities that a job must have to be therapeutic.
