How Your Life Story Relates to Well-being in Psychosis
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at how your personal life story (narrative identity) relates to your overall well-being if you have experienced psychosis—either for the first time or as a longer-term condition. Researchers hope to understand the connection between your sense of self and your quality of life.
