Meet Mark

In this short video, Mark talks about his recovery journey at St Andrew's Healthcare in Essex. Mark received care for bipolar disorder, schizoaffective disorder and extreme paranoia.

When he was first admitted, he was extremely unwell, experiencing intense periods of paranoia, but he says it was the support of staff at St Andrew’s that helped him begin to believe in himself and see the possibility of a future.

Mark has benefitted from music therapy and taking part in regular gym sessions, which has helped improve his wellbeing.

From avoiding the community to rebuilding independence

For people living with complex mental health needs, recovery is about much more than stabilising symptoms. Many patients reach a point where they are clinically ready to move on from acute or secure services but still lack the confidence, practical skills or resilience needed to live independently in the community.
