Le rétablissement en santé mentale, c’est beaucoup plus que l’absence de maladie ou de troubles psychiques. Il s'agit en fait bien davantage d’un processus de changement continu par lequel les personnes avec l’expérience vécue d’un problème de santé mentale améliorent globalement leur santé et leur bien-être, mènent une vie autonome, et s'évertuent à réaliser leur plein potentiel.
