Abstract

A chronic mental disorder that profoundly impacts the thoughts, feelings and behaviours of the individual is known as schizophrenia. Today, in the treatment of schizophrenia, recovery-oriented approaches that aim to improve the quality of life of the individual, rather than only relieving symptoms, are gaining importance. The aim of this review is to examine the current literature on the recovery process of individuals diagnosed with schizophrenia and to adress the concepts of clinical and personal recovery from a multidimensional perspective. The study analysed national and international studies published between 2015 and 2025. The findings indicate that recovery is not limited to the reduction of symptoms but also encompasses personal components such as hope, identity, finding meaning in life, and empowerment. Evaluating clinical and personal recovery approaches together contributes to the development of a holistic care approach. In conclusion, the recovery process has an individual-specific, dynamic and multidimensional structure. Mental health professionals must therefore develop practices that support this process.

Özet

ÖZET Bireyin düşünce, duygu ve davranışlarını derinden etkileyen kronik bir ruhsal bozukluk şizofreni olarak bilinmektedir. Günümüzde şizofreni tedavisinde sadece semptomların giderilmesinden ziyade bireyin yaşam kalitesini artırmayı hedefleyen iyileşme odaklı yaklaşımlar önem kazanmaktadır. Bu derleme çalışmasının amacı, şizofreni tanısı almış bireylerde iyileşme sürecine ilişkin mevcut literatürü incelemek ve klinik ve kişisel iyileşme kavramlarını çok boyutlu bir şekilde ele almaktır. Çalışma kapsamında 2015-2025 yılları arasında yayımlanan ulusal ve uluslararası çalışmalar analiz edilmiş ve elde edilen bulgular iyileşmenin sadece semptomların hafifletilmesiyle sınırlı olmadığını; umut, kimlik, anlamlı yaşam ve güçlenme gibi kişisel unsurların da sürece dahil olduğunu göstermiştir. Klinik ve kişisel iyileşme yaklaşımlarının birlikte değerlendirilmesi, bütüncül bir bakım yaklaşımının geliştirilmesine katkı sağlamaktadır. Sonuç olarak, iyileşme süreci bireye özgü, dinamik ve çok boyutlu bir yapıya sahiptir. Bu nedenle ruh sağlığı profesyonelleri bu süreci destekleyen uygulamalar geliştirmelidir. Anahtar Kelimeler: İyileşme, Kişisel iyileşme, Klinik iyileşme, Literatür taraması, Psikiyatri hemşireliği, , Şizofreni.
