Managing your health can feel overwhelming, like a full-time job. Between appointments, medications, and lifestyle adjustments, it’s easy to feel burned out and frustrated. Staying organized with lists and folders can help simplify your routine, and sharing your feelings with your care team can lead to adjustments that ease the burden.
Daily reminders of your health, like commercials or conversations, can disrupt moments of normalcy and bring you back to your reality. When this happens, acknowledge your feelings and refocus by engaging in activities that bring you joy, such as walking, calling a friend, or working on a project.
Asking for help can be tough when you value independence, but creating a care schedule and sharing it with loved ones can reduce stress and maintain your autonomy.
Remember, through it all, you’re a fighter. Your strength inspires those around you, and your healthcare team is always rooting for your success.
