I believe if every single person treated with psych drugs, including the psychadelics, were assigned a 'life coach', someone who is not a therapist, but say a person who had formal training in social work, would lead them in the area that has been transformative for all...support in "recovery principles". Here are the 10 principles of Recovery, by the APA (American Psychological Association):
Self-direction: Consumers determine their own path to recovery.
Individualized and person-centered: There are multiple pathways to recovery based on individuals unique strengths, needs, preferences, experiences and cultural backgrounds.
Empowerment: Consumers can choose among options and participate in all decisions that affect them.
Holistic: Recovery focuses on peoples entire lives, including mind, body, spirit and community.
Nonlinear: Recovery isnt a step-by-step process but one based on continual growth, occasional setbacks and learning from experience.
Strengths-based: Recovery builds on peoples strengths.
Peer support: Mutual support plays an invaluable role in recovery.
Respect: Acceptance and appreciation by society, communities, systems of care and consumers themselves are crucial to recovery.
Responsibility: Consumers are responsible for their own self-care and journeys of recovery.
Hope: Recoverys central, motivating message is a better future that people can and do overcome obstacles.
ALL are deeply important in our journey, and maybe having a 'Recovery Guide' would really help?Thoughts?
