Chronic Illness
A diagnosis can change your life
You remember the day you received the diagnosis. In one moment everything changed. You may have experienced feelings of shock and grief when you first heard the news. Then it moved towards finding ways to adjust and cope.
Chronic illness can lead to:
- Major lifestyle changes
- A sense of helplessness
- Depressive thoughts
Often others have a hard time understanding what you are going through.
Is chronic illness taking over?
