How Does Chronic Illness Make you Feel?
There are two approaches to answering this question:
- How it makes you fell physically
- How it makes you feel emotionally
The toll that chronic illness takes on the body, physically, includes:
- fatigue
- pain
The toll that it takes, emotionally includes:
- depression
- frustration
- anger
- feelings of worthlessness
- feelings of brokenness
- concern
- guilt
- isolation
Chronic illness is a full-time job. So much time is spent:
- charting symptoms
- going to doctors or specialists
- getting blood work done
- keeping a log of what we eat
