Supporting people who live with a mental illness may be difficult at times. We shouldn't expect "quick fixes." We're in for the long haul. However, we don't need to reinvent the wheel, a great deal of help is available at your fingertips. The National Alliance for Caregiving and NAMI created a great guidebook for family members and friends to use in learning to support their loved one or friend.
