Emotionally Managing Your Illness - Talya Miron-Shatz - Bog

Emotionally managing your illness won't magically make you better. It won't make the disease disappear, the maladies subside, or the doctors wrong. But that's not the aim. The doctors have the best chance at helping your body, but only you can sort things out emotionally, and find your own strength to best play the (crappy) hand you've been dealt. The illness didn't just happen; it happened to a person, it happened to you. And the feelings you're dealing with right now may not be logged in your electronic health record, and may not receive as much attention as your physical symptoms, but they really do matter.
