EMPOWERMENT AND SELF-MANAGEMENT

World Health Organisation has defined empowerment as: the level of choice, influence and control that users of Mental Health services can exercise over events in their lives (WHO & EC, 2010). Self management is one of the key developments that allow this to happen within the context of the care and treatment that traditionally is entirely controlled by clinicians.

Self-management is about transferring the focus from treating a condition or illness to enabling people to live with it in the long term. Within the context of mental ill health, the focus does not have to be on a diagnosis or a particular illness; rather it can be on how to respond to the obstacles faced by the individual, whether these are viewed through a neurological, biochemical, psychological, social or spiritual lens.
