Following on from my other blog post about understanding mental illness you also have to think about the healing process of mental illness and self harming and how somebody gets to that stage within their life.
The book which helped me see the recovering healing process of mental illness was The Power of Recovery in Healing Mental Illness by Kathleen Crowley 2000 this book gave me an idea who are suffering from mental illness and the recovery which goes with healing individuals with a certain illness such as depression and self harming, it is giving other hope.
But this book also made me understand that there is a lot of healing which goes into making somebody who suffers from mental illness better it is not just something which happens over night, and even though I knew it did not happen over night I was not expecting to find out that it was more deeper process than expected.
It helped with my project because it then made me realise that mental illness and self harming will always be with the individual who is suffering no matter where they turn they will also be a victim of self harming and need to have that control to keep them on the right track.
