Join the National Alliance for Caregiving, Mental Health America, and the National Alliance on Mental Illness for a briefing on the new report on caregivers for adults with mental illness, including schizophrenia, depression, and bipolar disorder (among others). We invite you to join the discussion!
It was a lot of good information. Mostly focused on a poll regarding different needs of those suffering from mental illness. Medical needs, services avilable, services needed. Educating the care giver. It talked about how long it can take sometimes for a proper diagnosis and then the challenges of finding the right meds and the right dose. I was hoping for more information on coping skills for the caregiver. It was good information but more of a scientific study.
