Abstract
The editors have identified and collected representative publications from the last 30 years of research and clinical and rehabilitative practice that present the evidence supporting use of the term recovery in relation to serious mental illnesses. This literature addresses both the natural history of the illness as well as the effectiveness of various interventions addressing different domains of functioning, such as vocational, emotional, social, physical, cognitive, and spiritual. Overall, it offers a highly variegated picture of a complex, dynamic, and ever evolving condition that, on the one hand, may become lethal when left untreated, but which, on the other hand, also can be contained, managed, and/or overcome over time by the majority of people who experience it.(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved)
