Chronic illness affects millions of people worldwide and is defined as a long-lasting health condition that may not have a complete cure. These conditions can range from mild to severe and can manifest in various forms, including diabetes, peptic ulcers, heart disease, hypertension, chronic kidney disease (CKD), asthma, and more. Also, although the term ‘chronic illness’ typically refers to conditions that are not autoimmune in nature, all autoimmune conditions, such as Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), Multiple Sclerosis (MS), psoriasis, Graves’ disease, etc., are chronic. If you or someone you care about is living with a chronic disease, the following steps for coping with chronic illness aim to empower you with knowledge and insight so you can better understand and manage your condition.
Those who live every day grappling with chronic illnesses inevitably encounter diverse sets of challenges to face both physically and mentally. Regardless of how symptoms manifest from person-to-person, mental health is an equally important aspect to consider in the overall well-being of those with chronic illness. Thankfully, the following strategies can help navigate these obstacles and, when applied, can ultimately lead to an improved quality of life.

Great post! All of this is so very true because not only have mental health problems but I also suffer from chronic illness as well. I have chronic Gastroparesis which is a Paralyzed stomach. I have a gastric pacemaker to help stimulate, AKA remind my stomach to digest solid food. There are also a wide variety of painful side effects that come with chronic Gastroparesis, such as acid reflux, Gerd, intestinal disease, risk of solid food not digesting and creating a mass in the stomach that forms into a bezoar which can be life threatening. There are also other factors that come with Gastroparesis such as, vomiting which can lead to dehydration and cause the esophagus to erode, cause drastic weight loss, and even can cause stomach cancer. I also have heart disease that is inherited. I have already had one heart attack and am at risk for more heart attacks and strokes. Not only that but I have degenerative disc disease, and spinal stenosis that affects every aspect of my life and causes extreme every day pain. Doing the simplest things such as cooking dinner can be a challenge….so with that said, people who suffer from chronic illness may look fine on the outside but are fighting an everyday silent battle from within. This post is very educational to so many that don’t suffer with chronic illness💯💯💯💯 Thank you so much for sharing! ✨😊
