Recovery is possible for everyone.

• A. True
• B. Only for those with mild symptoms
• C. False
• D. Only with medication

Answer: (A)

Recovery means people can rebuild meaningful lives and function well even if symptoms persist. This idea applies to everyone, regardless of how severe symptoms are at diagnosis or what treatments are involved. Recovery is a personal, non-linear process that may combine therapy, supports from peers and families, skills training, housing and employment help, and, when appropriate, medications. It’s not limited to those with mild symptoms, and it isn’t solely about taking meds. The focus is on hope, autonomy, and meaningful living, with each person choosing a path that works for them.
