Synopsis

How is mental integrity (the state of being complete, whole) achieved in light of serious mental illness? The author’s intent is that this work will be a source of insight and healing for many and that it will equip the church, conjoined with the medical/scientific field of psychiatry, to do a better job of enabling people living with mental illness to access the resources they need for becoming whole. The author shares some of her personal story of experience with serious mental illness, i.e., its genesis and her subsequent recovery process, which included involvement in a Christian community and her ministry work as an advocate for the mentally ill.
