Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
Four dimensions support recovery: health (managing disease and living in a physically and emotionally healthy way), home (a safe and stable place to live), purpose (meaningful daily activities and independence, resources, and income), and community (relationships and social networks).

Answer to Question 2

Ans: C
Stigma is one of the major treatment barriers facing individuals with mental health problems and their families. Diagnostic criteria have been established for mental disorders, and evidence through epidemiologic research provides valuable information about the mental health status of population groups and associated factors. A guiding principle of recovery is hope, the belief that recovery is real and that people can and do overcome the internal and external challenges, barriers, and obstacles confronting them.
