This is an easy to read page.
The following pages will give details of the possible treatments that will help someone with their mental ill health.
Some people may have more than one treatment at once, they may be on medication and also having a 'talking therapy'.
These pages highlight that someone with mental ill health can and should expect to get better, this is called recovery.
Specific medications can help with recovery but medication should not be seen as the only option. There are some useful links to more information about these medications on the following pages.
Where medication is not used a 'talking therapy' may be tried.
This will mean the individual (and maybe others as well) talking with a trained proffesional to discuss any problems and try and find ways of dealing with them.
Different professionals will use different methods to try and do this. Some of these are described in the following pages.
