9. Their Stories
“Katherine’s Story - Recovering from
Depression”
Having achieved two bachelor’s degrees and a master’s degree
public health, Katherine thought she “had the world by the tail.”
Although she had experienced dark feelings and insecurities before,
she never would have believed they would lead to full-blown
depression. But by the time Katherine was 28, her depression had
impacted her life in a major way. She had been hospitalized
numerous times, lost her apartment, job and benefits, ultimately
forcing her to file for bankruptcy and move in with her parents.
I truly believed that any hope of having any semblance of a normal
adult life was over and I would forever remain an adult-child
dreaming of the life that could have been.
Story Continued on next slide…
10. Their Stories
But at a hospital dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT) day-program
Katherine attended, life began to turn around. Through the
program’s individual and group therapy (most helpful for people
who have difficultly managing their emotions), Katherine learned
new skills to manage and cope with her emotions and tolerate
emotional distress. Eight years after her life fell apart, Katherine
re-entered the job market and her life “took giant leap forward.”
In Katherine’s words,
Recovery is possible for most everyone because it is defined by the
person doing it. There is no right or wrong way to recover - rather
it is about living a life that has ups and downs, successes and
failures, dreams and hopes - one that is fulfilling. It is about
building or rebuilding a life in spite of being diagnosed with a
mental illness. I never thought that I would be able to take the
most disenfranchising event in my life, being diagnosed as
seriously mental ill, and turn it into one of the most empowering.”
(Tracy, N.D)

15. Mental Health & Structural-
Functionalist Perspective
“Structural-Functionalist Perspective views society as a system
of interconnected parts that work in harmony to maintain a
state of balance and social equilibrium for the whole; focuses
on how each part of society influences and is influenced by
other parts.”(Mooney, Holmes, Knox & Schacht, 2013).
• Mental health and the structural-functionalist perspective
connect in many different ways. Structural-Functionalists
use both the terms “functional” and “dysfunctional”. Crime
is related to mental health and this is a part of the
structural-functionalist perspective. It also connects
because when rapid social change occurs it disrupts the
norms in society, which is also how mental health works.
When social change occurs it can affect ones mental health.
