Angel in the Mirror: Road to Recovery

Book excerpt: Mental illness directly or indirectly affects everyone, and yet it makes the sufferer feel completely alone. This book aims to educate the reader about mental illness, about therapies that are available, what has worked for Lumi and what has not. Whether you are a patient or client, carer or health professional, Lumi shares with you her own experience of the world of psychiatry. By speaking out, she wishes to tear down the walls caused by stigma. Everyone deserves some happiness and understanding and hopefully you will find that within this book.
