Mental illness and psychiatry -- Narratives -- Crisis intervention and home treatment -- Methods -- The user narratives -- Descent into illness and psychiatric intervention -- Recovery from illness and self-coping -- Conclusion.

Drawing on extensive research in the UK, Mental Health User Narratives focuses on the listening to and understanding of the mental health user within the psychiatric system. It differs from other texts in the field by arguing for the avoidance of immediate interpretation. Instead,the user 'narratives' (or stories) are taken at face value, building amore rounded picture of the lives of users, and producing new perspectives on mental health and illness. Insights are gained into such areas as spiritualism, self-coping, self-recovery, alternative treatments, positive affects of illness and future life paths. Further, comparison ofinstitutional and home treatment psychiatric narratives illustrates the fluidity of illness-identity depending on the psychiatric intervention experienced. Theresearch in this book will demonstrate a need to widen the therapeutic mind to include the mundane and everyday as an additional focus for treatment and recovery. It is the first volume allowingmentalhealth users to speak to the professional community which offers to treat them and as such will beanimportant resource for professionals, students and practitioners in the mental health field.
