Battling Health Issues, Anxiety, And Depression All At The Same Time
Battling Health Issues, Anxiety, And Depression All At The Same Time
Whenever you’re going through a challenging medical condition or an unforeseen diagnosis, it’s okay to grieve. But like many problems, having hope and taking action can give anyone a view of the brighter side of life.
In this episode, John responds to a message sent by one of the show’s listeners about how she’s dealing with her health issues. Most of the time, physical illness can affect one’s mental health – with anxiety and depression being the most common reactions. Cognitive distortion leads you to assume the worst about yourself.
Like many illnesses, a chance for recovery is always within reach. Consulting with a trusted medical professional such as a doctor can help you know the state of your health, so you won’t have to be crippled by anxiety and depression. Taking one step at a time is also ideal to manage and cope with whatever it is you’re going through.
