A book that debunks many of the myths that still persist about psychosis and opens a new perspective that combines theoretical depth with a practical therapeutic approach, structured in three phases: to survive, to exist and live.

Survive, exist, live opens a new perspective for psychotherapy of severe psychosis and provides a heuristic model for understanding along a continuum of severity from extreme incapacitating experience acute psychosis to a fuller life experience. Pamela Fuller insists that, to facilitate the recovery of psychosis, consider the situation of each person based on three phases: 1) Survival: concern for survival; 2) Exist: restrict concern the life experiences to address them; and 3) Living: concern for quality of life and relationships. Fuller provides a detailed guide to tailor treatment to these three stages and help people with psychosis to move from suffering to a fuller life. To do this, described in detail the specific therapeutic interventions for each phase, provides examples of case studies and proposes strategies to strengthen resilience in the professional working with people with psychosis.
