2) Recognize the power of the individual. As William Anthony, Ph.D., has said, "recovery can be facilitated by any one person." Because procovery can be initiated or contributed to by any individual, at any time, procovery is most easily reached in a climate that fosters individual initiative—whether that of consumer, family, or staff.

Flower Portrait #44
Another day, another opportunity to find delight in life. Yes, I know what it feels like to be so depressed that nothing seems inviting, interesting, or involving. That's where WILL comes in. . and FRIENDSHIP. You've helped people when they were down. . cash in a few "chips" and ask them to visit, or go fo a walk, or visit the botanical garden. Life IS wonderful, you've GOT to try and see it.
