4 4 NAMI Connection PRINCIPLES OF SUPPORT * We will see the individual first, not the illness. * We recognize that mental illnesses are medical illnesses, that may have environmental triggers. * We understand that mental illnesses are traumatic events. * We aim for better coping skills. * We find strength in sharing experiences. * We reject stigma and do not tolerate discrimination. * We won't judge anyone's pain as less than our own. * We forgive ourselves and reject guilt. * We embrace humor as healthy. * We accept we cannot solve all problems. * We expect a better future in a realistic way. * We will never give up hope. Talk to someone who understands someone just like you NAMI Connection NAMI Connection Recovery Support Groups are open to all adults with mental illness, regardless of diagnosis. Please feel welcome to drop by and share your feelings, difficulties, or successes. Everyone is a valued participant. The groups are led by trained individuals who are in recovery themselves. They understand your daily challenges and can offer encouragement and support. All groups are confidential you can share as much or as little personal information as you wish. NAMI Stanislaus currently has one meeting time for NAMI Connection. It is on Saturdays, 12:30 pm, at the NAMI offices We need you to come, the more participants we have the more times we can set up! For more info call Stewart or the office at Mental Notes: --- Stewart Wise, NAMI Connection facilitator From NAMI I have learned about the Emotional Stages of Recovery. These stages are Recuperation, Rebuilding, and Recovery. I often refer to them as "Hanging on, Bring it on, and Pass it on". Understanding my feelings and needs that occur during each stage gives me a strong foundation for my recovery. The stages are not like a 3 stage rocket. Just because I may be experiencing mostly stage 2 (Rebuilding) doesn t' mean I can discard stage 1 (Recuperation). Because, my disorder is cyclical in nature, I go back and forth thru the stages. When I am in crisis, stage 1, I feel lost. I lose touch with myself and the world around me. I don't know who I am. I feel like I will never get out of the hole I am in. My greatest need is to feel hope. I need to believe that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. I need someone to show me the way. In stage 2, I am struggling to re-establish who I am. I want to tell my story. I want to speak about my pain. I want others to understand my pain. I do everything I can think of to try to stabilize my emotions so I can pick up my life. I fail as many times as I succeed. One day I think that I know all the answers and the next day twice as many questions appear. My greatest need during this stage is support from my peers. I gain strength from their successes. I learn from their experiences. I feel comfortable with them because they can understand my pain. I gain a feeling of self worth because I am not alone. Stage 3 is the most difficult one for me to stay in. I am like a drowning man. Whenever I can stick my head above the water that is when I am in stage 3. It is here that everything comes together for me. My world is not a mystery to me. My self-esteem is high. My relationships are good. I face my fears with success. The understanding of how I am affected by my illness increases dramatically. I rise from the ashes like a phoenix. I no longer cling to the person I was. I have emerged a new person different and better than the one before. I have been remade. My need during this stage is to take a deep breath of all this goodness for when I take that plunge under the water again.
5 Establishing a Routine Most people are most able to keep up healthy habits if they stick to a routine. The routine can create a sense of stability. The same is true for people with mental health conditions. 5 Adopting Healthy Recovery Lifestyle Habits Making healthy habits a routine part of life can help a lot with overall recovery. Healthy habits can include: -Taking medication regularly as prescribed -Getting regular exercise (talk with your doctor before beginning any exercise program) -Eating healthy meals -Limiting caffeine and sugar -Getting enough sleep -Learning relaxation skills, such as yoga and meditation -Reaching out for support -Avoiding illicit drugs and alcohol Start with small changes, and after mastering one or two, add new ones. For example, a person who is not used to exercising may be able to make a commitment to spending just 10 minutes a day doing some kind of enjoyable activity. If cutting back on coffee is a goal, decrease your intake gradually each day. The therapist or primary care doctor may offer help with quitting smoking and substance use and abuse. Exercise What kind of exercise is enjoyable? There are many types. Walking is often a good start. Is it preferable to exercise alone or with a group? Ask friends or family members if they would be willing to set up an exercise schedule a few times a week. Remember, talk with your doctor before beginning any exercise program. Reduce stress Stress can be caused by happy events (like a sister s wedding or a new job), or by difficult events (like an illness in the family, a sick pet, or financial difficulties). When feeling stressed, it s important to take some time and identify the cause of the stress. Once you figure that out, you can develop a plan to reduce or alleviate the stress. There are a variety of stress reduction activities that many people find useful. Some people like activities such as t ai chi, yoga, meditation, qigong, and deep breathing exercises. Other people may enjoy listening to music, taking a walk, going to a movie, reading, or spending time with a friend. What is important to keep in mind is that stress reduction is a personal process. Each person can identify the coping strategies that work well. Eat healthy food Having a healthy diet is important. Eating habits must be improved gradually. Choose one thing to cut back on, and after getting used to that, choose another. Replace unhealthy foods with more nutritious items, for example, fruits instead of candy and other sweets; vegetables and salad instead of potato chips; bake, broil, or sauté proteins such as meat, tofu, or fish instead of frying them. Avoid substance abuse It s important to understand that abuse of drugs or alcohol tends to be more common among people who have schizophrenia than it is in the general population. There is no evidence that substance abuse causes schizophrenia. Substance abuse can cause extra stressors in life, which can make it harder to stay on a medication plan, reduce the effectiveness of medication, and possibly cause symptoms to return. If a person with a mental health condition is having trouble with substance abuse, being honest with someone on the recovery team is important. Tell a therapist, psychiatrist, or trusted family or friends. They may be able to help deal with this issue.
