Discovering recovery.

This paper describes the interaction between a micro-history of recovery and a personal recovery history. It begins with a narrative of the author's own recovery experience as he participates in a series of recovery initiatives in a Midwestern state. The impact of these history-graded experiences on his human life-span development is then examined in the context of recovery. Lessons learned are discussed, and some conclusions are drawn. Implications for mental health professionals and people receiving mental health services are also explored. The benefits of getting involved are highlighted, as well as some concerns.
