Families & Mental Illness
Looking ahead
Managing mental illness with the correct medication and care can mean living a life that is both fulfilling and hopeful for the future. Responsibilities taken on by those with a mental illness, from the day-to-day running of a household, to larger ventures such as maintaining employment, can give the gift of independence and achievement. In this 'Speaking From Experience' video clip, carers reflect on some of the most important elements to being a carer.
