Societal Labels, Maslows Hierarchy and Care within the Mental Health System

Abstract

This article deals with how social attitudes and the consequent labelling in the society and prevent climbing the maslow tree and the kinds of therapy personal growth can offer to those living with schizophrenia. The way this works is illustrated in the article and how the various parts of the mental health system including hospitals, day centres and sheltered accommodation can help with this based on my own experiences.
