Abstract

If we are to deliver services that encourage recovery from mental illness, it is essential that there is a vision of a future where recovery from mental illness is both possible and understood by communities, services and staff. Piers Allott provides a brief introduction to the concept of recovery from ‘mental illness’, proposes a vision for recovery, and flags up ways in which recovery practice can be taken forward.

Abstract

I am proud to be known as an expert by experience in recovery from mental distress, but I am also a co‐founder and director of a multi‐award winning, peer‐led charity called Changes 12 Steps to Mental Health. In the 1980s, after experiencing my third breakdown, I was an extremely angry person because of the lack of cross‐sector service provision to assist me in becoming whole again. Thankfully I used my rage to develop, along with my co‐founder Dave Wheat, our Changes 12 Steps to Mental Health services to meet the needs of those in mental distress. Changes 12 Steps to Mental Health provides person‐focused, recovery‐rooted services that aim to promote recovery, enabling people to become contributing members of society again. This is the history of Changes 12 Steps to Mental Health, our achievements and the challenges that we have faced in developing the services that we provide today.

Abstract

This article explores recovery within mental health as a journey of healership, one in which we are all engaged in healing our own wounds. It recounts the author's personal journey with the question ‘What is the journey into healership?’ and her research with four co‐researchers who work as recovery guides in a crisis house in North Birmingham. It explores the wider implications for service development and the training of mental health professionals.
