Storying Mental Illness and Personal Recovery (Hardcover)

This book contains excerpts of life stories from 118 individuals
diagnosed with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, borderline
personality disorder, and major depressive disorder. This library
of personal narratives, heavily reproduced and quoted throughout
the text, presents a composite image of the ways in which narrative
identity can be affected by mental illness while also being a
resource for personal recovery. Those researching, studying or
practicing in mental health professions will find a wealth of
humanizing first-person perspectives on mental illness that foster
perspective-taking and aid patient-centered treatment and study.
Researchers of narrative psychology will find a unique set of life
stories synthesized with existing literature on identity and
recovery. Moving towards intervention, the authors include a 'guide
for narrative repair' with the aim of healing narrative identity
damage and fostering growth of adaptive narrative identity.
