Suffering from a chronic illness can negatively impact your emotional wellbeing as well as that of your family members. You might feel hopeless and have trouble getting through each day because of your illness. Your disease may also cause you to experience stress. At Fishtown Wellness Center, our therapists are experienced with helping people cope with chronic illnesses so they can experience greater happiness.
Chronic illnesses may develop at any age. Some chronic conditions cause obvious disabilities while others may be more hidden from view. Chronic diseases differ in their prognosis, treatment, and symptoms. However, they all cause difficulties for people who suffer from them as well as their families.
When you suffer from a chronic illness, you may also experience negative psychological impacts such as loneliness, low self-esteem, despair, embarrassment, fear, and depression. Therapy can help you to move past the negative impacts that your condition has on your life.
Your family may also be deeply affected when you have a chronic illness. Your loved ones may feel overwhelmed and stressed by your illness. Family members may be concerned, worried, and anxious, and they may also suffer financial hardships caused by the illness. Counseling can benefit families of people who have chronic illnesses.
It is possible for you to rise above a chronic illness by learning and using strong coping strategies, as well as making other adjustments to mitigate symptoms and to promote health. When you work with your therapist, they will help you consider how your condition has affected you and explore available options for health and wellness.
