A diagnosis and treatment plan for a chronic illness has brought your world crashing down - When Others Don’t Understand Your Illness can help get your well-being back on track again.

Stress in our everyday life is common but add the shock of diagnosis and grief of the loss of health, and it’s a perfect storm of stress and overthinking, which can lead to depression and anxiety.

This book teaches you how to leverage your existing resources rather than expending your finite energy on reinventing the wheel.

This chronic illness book can help you alter your view of the future! It offers a well-being plan that can propel you from feeling sick and sad to thriving! If you’re feeling overwhelmed by your new reality and tired of sifting through the myriad of conflicting advice about everything from fatigue to fibromyalgia and dealing with the indifference of people around you, this book may help to declutter, prioritize, and put things into perspective.

The book covers:

• 5 Ways to feel well - practical ways to incorporate and optimize simple things you already have at your disposal to improve your wellbeing • Understanding autoimmune disease and mood • Navigating relationships • How to Live with pain - strategies for managing pain before it manages you • Ways to help you feel better when you’re feeling sick and alone • Coping with loss - future prospects including hopes and dreams are often lost when chronic illnesses strike, and their loss is always accompanied by grief • Stress management • Ways to stop overthinking • Anxiety techniques that are simple yet effective

Living with chronic illness is complicated, but this practical guide to intentional physical, mental, spiritual, and relational well-being offers a pathway to flourishing. For anyone coming to terms with a diagnosis, there is hope to live your best life by developing a personalized well-being plan.
