Not surprisingly, the policy of closing mental hospitals and relocating mental patients in the community has generated great controversy. This book reports on the complexities and ironies involved here, directly from the front line. It explores how a group of people with a history of schizophrenic illness feel about themselves and their circumstances, the various factors that hinder or support them and the alternative ways in which, in an effort to distance themselves from stereotypes of the 'mental patient' or the 'schizophrenic', they now try to lend meaning to their lives.
