Recovery in Psychosis: Perspectives of Clients With First Episode Psychosis.

CONCLUSIONS: The emergent themes provide an understanding of the meaning of recovery to persons with first episode psychosis, their experiences as they proceed with their recovery journey and factors they found helpful. The importance of acceptance of the condition and the personal role the individual plays in his or her own recovery was evident in the narratives of the participants. The study suggests a need to incorporate recovery-relevant approaches right from the first episode of psychosis.
