MyChoice

“It’s my choice, it’s my recovery.”

Welcome. This website is for you. It’s designed to help you find out more about schizophrenia and the choices available to help with your recovery.

People with schizophrenia don’t choose the illness; it chooses them. Nevertheless, you can make decisions every day - some big, some small, but all important on the journey of recovery. You may make many of these decisions on your own, while some may need the help of others.

There may be times when you feel like you have no choice; times when you feel overwhelmed and helpless. In these times try and remember that even the smallest decision can make a difference in your life.

Some of the choices you might make include learning more about schizophrenia; reaching out for help; accepting the condition and recognising the need for treatment; and committing to long-term therapy.

This website is designed to help you make the choices that are right for you on your journey of recovery.
