I've been in the mental health system for about 22 years and only the PHP I have been in since March of this year has ever tried to teach skills to identify when your symptoms are getting worse. How to try to work yourself out of depression. For people who hear voices, trying to get them to realize what is real and what is their illness, etc. Of course, they push the meds. But most people in this program are disabled because of their illness. But at least it's not like regular therapy, where I'm only dealing with issues that come up or from the past. I'm actually able to now identify triggers and when I'm slipping again.
