"It's all about finding out what will work for you personally, where you are, right now." Do you feel stuck in a place of poor mental health, unable to find help and feeling you've failed if recommended treatments don't work for you? This book offers advice and encouragement to move your focus from the things that are holding you back to the things you want in your life and move towards that step by step from where you are right now. With exercises to help identify out what works for you and suggestions for applying this to areas such as self care, social life, work and career and moving on from self destructive behaviour, it reminds you that the journey to recovery from mental illness is individual to each of us. Based on the author's personal experience of both making this journey and of delivering training on goal directed care planning to mental health professionals.
