  3. Dr Frank Holloway “In ten years time will the diagnosis of schizophrenia be out of date?” What Is Psychosis? Frank shared a vignette of a person experiencing the disruptive and confusing experiences of hearing voices, withdrawal and confusion, associated with schizophrenia. He also noted the reactions of the public and the media to psychosis and schizophrenia. Frank suggested a diagnosis of schizophrenia is not based on a specific pathological mechanism.

  4. Stuart Baker-Brown “Stigma, stops people like me, progressing” Reaching Great Heights of Recovery “I’m not willing to hide my diagnosis, I’m proud to be different” “Always believe in yourself, even when others don’t” “ Open your minds -start promoting Hope!!”

  5. Andrew Voyce “ My writing is who I am” The Voyce of Experience “I want to own and ride a bike, go to the cinema, go on holiday”. “Challenge the glass ceiling and where people with mental health problems can go.”

  6. Buddy, an on-going project to create a piece of networked technology that will allow people who use services to record how they are feeling. Katie Harris Buddy – What is it? Record how we look forward rather than back.. Because our activities influence our mood this software becomes more of a challenge to develop.

  7. Bose Dania “Feel like I’m emerging, From darkness.” Life After Diagnosis Find one’s own voice to become who you desire to be, through determination and self will. “When I wasn’t me, I felt life leave my soul; When I wasn’t me, society looked pretty scary to me”

  8. Michelle McNary Several very able people spoke eloquently on film, about their experiences of mental illness and recovery. Recovery Film “One of the things about recovery, is learning to live a new life, get a second chance, a new piece of clay, you can shape the way you want.” “ The more hope I have, the more it helps my recovery - they go together, there is no separating them.” “My current dream is to inspire people that recovery can be done!” Quotes taken from Film

  9. Augusto D. Mello Partnership, Acceptance, Self Knowledge, The Power of Slow, Awe Wellbeing and Recovery Toolbox “ We cannot control the waves, but we can learn to surf! “Life is about choices, self-knowledge help us make skilful ones“ “ Life can be challenging – but what a wondrous challenge”
