1) What are the differences between Recovery and Cure in the realm of mental health issues? Is it possible to be cured or fully recovered from mental health issues as with medical conditions? What might that look like? How might this concept of a full recovery differ in relation to our view of other disabilities? Which definition of Recovery that is provided resonates the most with you? Are there people in the Mental Health Disability movement who believe more in the concept of being (fully) “recovered” rather than a process toward recovery, and why?

2) Compare and contrast Personal Recovery and Clinical Recovery? What are the characteristics and advantages of each, and which would you favor, and why? What are the limitations of each? How can the Medical Model fit into Recovery as per Slade? Is one model more effective with certain individuals, and which settings? How would you decide which model better applies? Can we integrate the two models in some way?

3) Many people believe empowerment is the cornerstone of Recovery while others believe it is hope, what do you think, and why? How can we go about encouraging hope in the hopeless, and empowerment in the powerless? How could this be incorporated into the treatment process, and what is its value?
