The Narative Experiences Online (NEON) Study

Participants needed for new study on the effects of sharing one's personal story of recovery.

The NEON publicity material states:

'The NEON study seeks to understand how access to stories of personal journeys through mental health challenges can benefit others.  

Have you had experience of what can be called “psychosis”, or have experiences that others see as unusual (e.g. hearing voices, seeing or believing things that others do not)?

Are you living without NHS support (other than your GP)?

Taking part would involve:

• You would take part in an interview, and be asked to share your story with us.
• You would be paid £20 in recognition of your time and expertise.

This research is being undertaken at sites in Nottingham, East London and South London. Members of the research team have lived experience of mental health challenges.
