	Patricia Deegan is a psychiatrist who has recovered from schizophrenia. She written a number of books, journal articles etc on the subject of recovery. Her program '''"''Hearing Voices''"'''is a training given to judges and police officers; as well as numerous mental health workers where the participant listens to recordings of voices wearing headphones. The statements made by these voices are actual words repeated by persons who have heard voices. A particularly moving account of a personal journey is that of Patricia Deegan, She compares her own experience with that of a young disabled friend. Deegan was diagnosed in her late teens with schizophrenia, and her friend became paralyzed in an accident. Both were initially told that their condition was incurable and that they would be sick or disabled for the rest of their lives. Both experienced long periods of anguish, despair, and hopelessness. Yet through a process Deegan calls “recovery,” both were able eventually to learn and manage their difficulties, and achieve meaningful goals. She became a psychologist; he became qualified to work with other disabled people. …Both took charge of their lives and, in that sense “recovered.” - Psychiatric Rehabilitation Journal, 2002		Patricia Deegan is a psychiatrist who has recovered from schizophrenia.

	In her earlier career as a mental health professional she was reluctant to disclose her own mental illness to her coworkers and colleagues, but she became frustrated by working in a system that disempowered and stigmatized the very people she was trying to help. All this while coping with the issues of her own recovery from mental illness, she then started writing articles and conducting her speaking engagements. Although not taking an anti-medication stance, she does oppose the mental health worker pushing for medication compliance. She states that medications are ~~“one~~ tool among many tools that a person may use in their recovery ~~process”~~ (Deegan, 1996)		In her earlier career as a mental health professional, she was reluctant to disclose her own mental illness to her coworkers and colleagues, but she became frustrated by working in a system that disempowered and stigmatized the very people she was trying to help.

	According to Pat Deegan PhD: ~~“Recovery~~ is a process, a way of life, an attitude, and a way of approaching the ~~day’s~~ challenges. It is not a perfectly linear process. At times our course is erratic and we falter, slide back, regroup and start again. . . .The need is to meet the challenge of the disability and to reestablish a new and valued sense of integrity and purpose within and beyond the limits of the disability; the aspiration is to live, work, and love in a community in which one makes a significant ~~contribution”~~ (Deegan, 1988, p. 15). Pat Deegan is well-known writer in the recovery movement. She is the inventor of the “Hearing Voices that are distressing” training for mental health staff and police.
