Recovery From Schizophrenia: What It Means?

Abstract

Age-old accepted myth about Schizophrenia is that, it is a chronic, incurable progressive mental illness with genetic defects of the brain. Many researchers focussed mainly on the medical model of this particular disorder. However, a thorough review of recent literature on recovery from Schizophrenia absolutely contradicts this strongly held pessimistic view point. The current concern is not only on symptomatology or pathology but to achieve recovery and wellness for each and every person suffering from this illness.
