Book Reviews of I Am Not Sick I Don't Need Help: How to Help Someone with Mental Illness Accept Treatment
Book Review: A "must read"
Summary: 5 Stars
I found this book very helpful and expect that anyone with a friend or family member suffering from scizophrenia will as well. The author and editor both have real life experience dealing with scizophrenia -- both clinical and family member experience.
It debunks some popular wisdom regarding what to do and what not to do and provides thoughtful advice on how to establish a trusting relationship with your loved one. Building a level of trust and establishing shared goals provides a foundation for helping your friend or loved one seek treatment and to continue with it.
