Mental Health Recovery Book: An expose by the mother of a son with schizophrenia including care, nutrition and living within the family unit

Mental health is a major problem in society, one which many people would prefer to turn their back on. Unfortunately mental health does not just affect those with the illness but the extended family as well. Parents and siblings stagger at the news that their loved one has become another statistic in this every growing problem. This book has been written in order to help those family members who are caring for a loved one with a mental illness, and with a view to keep positive as there is often a reasonable recovery.

In the darkest hours family members feel that there will never be an end to the stress that they experience as they are exposed to behavior that they have not seen before. The book encourages carers to care for themselves in order to be the best carer they can.

Tips, strategies and experiences abound in this book and has proven helpful to other carers around the world. It is not written so much about the illness but offering experienced ways to cope and move on in life.
