Loving Someone With A Serious Mental Illness: Caring for Your Loved One and Yourself on the Journey to Mental Health Recovery

Description

Powerful and practical tools to help you support your loved one with serious mental illness, while also making room for your own needs. If you have a loved one-a spouse, adult child, or other family member-who has a mental illness such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or depression and is experiencing symptoms like psychosis, you need help right now. Authors Katherine Ponte and Izzy Goncalves have been there. They are there. During Katherine's ongoing eighteen-year recovery from severe bipolar disorder and depression, her husband Izzy has been her primary caregiver. Together through trial, trauma, and triumph, they have amassed an unmatched store of lived experiences, shared perspectives, and lessons learned. They now bravely share, for the first time, everything they have come to understand about the challenges they've faced and surmounted together. A vital resource for families combating mental illness, this book will help you: recognize the signs and symptoms of mental illness; maintain and improve communication between you and your loved one; better understand your loved one's feelings and emotions; handle special situations, including de-escalating an emergency; discover different options for treatment; and make room for self-care.
