How To Handle Your Emotions When You Have More Than One Health Condition

« Previous

6/6

The emotions that accompany any life changing health condition can be heightened by having more than one condition.

There are medications and techniques for dealing with emotions such as depression, anxiety and panic attacks.

It is important to express your emotions.

  • Consider joining a support group both to help with your emotional well being and to learn practical tips about coping with your health conditions. If no group works for you, consider starting an informal one of your own. 
  • At least consider speaking one-on-one with someone going through the same situation you are. 
  • Express your emotions to family and friends.
