Encounters with Mental Distress : Quaker Stories
Bok
Issues relating to mental illness and mental distress
have been of particular interest and concern to Quakers
throughout the history of the Religious Society of
Friends.
It became apparent that it would be helpful to learn
more from Quakers about their personal experiences
of mental ill health. Friends were invited to share their
stories, whether positive or challenging.
The result is this candid collection of encounters,
responses and insights from individuals, carers and
meetings. We hope that it will increase understanding,
reduce stigma and enable people to be more open, more
compassionate and more accepting of those who are
distressed or ill.
