      I think there is a better awareness about mental health conditions, and the services are more accessible. Early intervention services and GP providing referrals for support/intervention is really helping in identifying individuals with the condition, and intervening early to reduce the poor outcome (which typically happens with a long duration of untreated psychosis – DUP).
