The Mental Health Narratives Project set out to gather forty narratives of mental ill health, recovery and life after recovery by interviewing Maori and non-Maori women and men who once had a disabling mental health problem. We aimed to describe journeys to mental health, identify key themes in accounts of the recovery process and describe the impact of the experience of mental ill health on life after recovery.application/pdfenCopyright Hilary Lapsley, Linda Waimarie Nikora and Rosanne Black 2002.Maoripsychologymental healthCommissioned Report for External Body
