Module 3: The Recovery Paradigm


Ch 3: What is Recovery?

(Slade, 2009)


What is the difference between clinical recovery and personal recovery according to Slade (2009)?

Clinical Recovery Personal Recovery

 Refers to recovery in the sense of cure  Refers to individuals self-reporting as being
 It is an outcome or a state, generally dichotomous recovered – even when they experience ongoing
 It is observable in clinical parlance, it is objective symptoms
 It is rated by the expert clinician, not the patient  Recovery is an individual process
 The definition of recovery is invariant across  Recovery is seen as a journey into life – not an
individuals outcome to be arrived at
 The intention with this definition is that it is  Recovery is about seeing people beyond their
operationalizable – suitable for use in empirical problems (e.g., abilities, possibilities, interests,
research dreams) – and not about cure
 Recovering the social roles and relationships that
give value and meaning
 Early individual accounts of recovery provide
ecologically valid pointers to what recovery looks
and feels like from the inside
 This understanding of recovery emphasizes the
centrality of hope, identity, meaning and personal
responsibility
 This understanding of recovery reflects its
individually defined and experienced nature
 Recovery is a deeply personal, unique process of
changing one’s attitudes, values, feelings, goals,
skills and/or roles
 It is a way of living a satisfying, hopeful, and

, contributing life within the limitations caused by
illness
 Recovery involves the development of new meaning
and purpose in one’s life as one grows beyond the
effects of mental illness
 It is the establishment of a fulfilling, meaningful
life and a positive sense of identity founded on
hopefulness and self-determinations
 Recovery involves living as well as possible
 Personal recovery makes the operationalization of
the concept and empirical investigation problematic
 Recovery can be identified using the domains
empowerment, hope and optimism, knowledge,
and life satisfaction



Where do they overlap?

Clinical recovery and personal recovery are two overlapping, but different, understandings –
subsequently, three definitions of recovery have been proposed:

1. Spontaneous Recovery – i.e., recovery is a naturally occurring phenomenon – some
people who meet the diagnostic criteria for a serious mental illness are able to
overcome their disabilities and fully enjoy a life in which their life goals are
accomplished – without any treatment

2. Clinical Recovery – i.e., as with other medical illnesses, people can recover from
mental illness with proper treatment – others who do not enjoy spontaneous recovery
from mental illness are able to achieve a similar state of goal attainment and life
satisfaction as a result of participating in variety of services

3. Personal Recovery – i.e., recovery reintroduces the idea of hope in understanding
serious mental illness – it means that even though one is diagnosed with serious psych
disorder, his/her life need not be limited by institutions



Personal recovery encompasses all three types of recovery listed above

, 1. Spontaneous recovery occurs for some people – when one’s biological,
psychological, social and spiritual self-righting skills and supports combine to manage
the mental illness

2. Personal recovery occurs for some people – via receiving evidence-based treatments
(clinical recovery) – so treatment is an important element of MHS

- This is where personal recovery and clinical recovery overlap

3. Crucially – personal recovery is underpinned for all people by hope, meaning,
identity, and personal responsibility

Although these concepts overlap – a primary focus on clinical recovery is incompatible with
a primary focus on personal recovery

- The current focus on clinical recovery can hinder personal recovery in the
domains (1) hope, (2) meaning, and (3) symptoms

Approaches and Core Arguments
RECOVERY-FOCUSED SERVICE – RECOVERY APPROACH

Summary Description  A recovery-focused service – is an approach, a way of thinking, a set of attitudes
and values put into practice by skilled MH practitioners
 Recovery involves a journey – from disengagement to engagement – from
surviving to living and growing
 Awareness of the journey starts in adversity – such as mental illness – the journey
is not about the adversity
 The journey has many routes – and each person’s journey is unique – it involves
finding the courage to hope for a good future and to relate to yourself and others in
beneficial ways

 Setbacks are inevitable – but the challenge is universal

Aspects Identified by  Recovery is a continuing journey – not an end-product or result
Perkins and Repper  Recovery is about growth
 A recovery vision is not limited to a particular theory about the nature and causes
of mental health problems
 Recovery is not the same as cure

,  Recovery can, and does, occur without professional intervention
 Everyone’s recovery journey is different and deeply personal – there are no rules of
recovery and no formula for success
 Recovery is about taking back control over one’s own life
 Recovery is not a linear process
 Recovery is not specific to people with mental health problems
Aspects Identified by  Recovery is a journey from alienation to a sense of meaning and purpose
Ralph  Recovery is moving from withdrawal to engagement and active participation in
life
 Recovery is active coping rather than passive adjustment
 Recovery is breaking through denial and achieving understanding and
acceptance
 Recovery is reawakening of hope after despair

 Recovery means no longer viewing oneself as primarily a person with a psychiatric
disorder and reclaiming a positive sense of self

 Recovery is not accomplished alone – the journey involves support and partnership

 Recovery is a complex and nonlinear journey



CLINICAL RECOVERY PITFALLS

Clinical Recovery and  Hope is central to personal recovery as it leads to action based on approach rather
Hope than avoidance motivation – having positive goals rather than trying to avoid
negative outcomes
 Hope is a problem in MHS – they should work in ways to foster hope and
optimism
 Professionals rarely communicate possibility of good future and clients may
develop the belief that they will never recover – self-fulfilling nature of belief
 Spirit breaking – i.e., when interactions with MH professionals engender feelings
of being disrespected, discouraged, and hopeless
 Hopelessness takes away the motivation to become well – a focus on clinical
recovery with its emphasis on engendering realistic (low) expectation – can
destroy hope

, 

Clinical Recovery and  Finding meaning involves making sense of experience and generating a story
Meaning which fits for the person

 Meaning gives a narrative of how they come to be where they are in life – such a
discovery that we do not need to be a slave to our genes is a facilitator of hope

 Imposing a single explanatory model on the ways of developing meaning – can be
damaging

 Individuals need to be supported in finding meaning via a stance of offering
understanding rather than imposing an explanation

 If a service is focused on clinical recovery – lack of insight is always to be avoided
as it is a symptom of illness – and symptoms are by definition undesirable

 In a service focused on personal recovery – it is important that the person finds
their own meaning which can make sense of their experience and provide hope for
the future

Clinical Recovery and  For clinical recovery – symptom abatement is necessary
Symptoms  For personal recovery – there is no universal stance about symptoms
 Viewing symptom reduction as the primary goal of MHS – (1) leads to an
escalating cycle of increasing compulsion and (2) a view of symptoms as always
undesirable – ignores the potential benefits

 Personal recovery is almost always about the relationship with the symptoms




EXPLANATORY MODELS OF DEVELOPING MEANING

Life History  E.g., a difficult childhood

Medical  Often expressed with ambivalence – such as a view of medication as a necessary
evil

 With recovery as present when medication has ceased to be an issue
