Title
The importance of personal medicine: a qualitative study of resilience in people with psychiatric disabilities.
Authors
Deegan, Patricia E
Abstract
Resilience does not refer to a magical state of invulnerability and the capacity for resilience does not end when one is diagnosed with a prolonged disorder or disease. Despite the enduring legacy of pessimism regarding resilience in the population of people diagnosed with psychiatric disorders, a majority do recover.
