Abstract
There is a growing awareness that a person’s recovery from mental illness is largely dependent upon the informal support they receive. Yet when people experience mental illness, most families, friends and carers are unaware of how to cope with it.¹ Consequently, this sense of powerlessness reduces coping strategies and increases social isolation, and has been found to cause depression and physical health problems.²
