Hello Hello! I’m Jess (insta: jess_and_elda) and this is Patient POV!
Today we chatted with Shedrica (@lupusspeaks), a fellow podcaster, and chronic illness advocate. She has lupus and strives to showcase how to live a good life despite her diagnosis.
Notes:
Get involved in social media/chronic health community because people can provide resources and tips they use which you can consider implementing too
Planning, writing everything down and keep an agenda gives you a piece of control back and helps you not forget things because it is written down
Worry well once worry well: Plan in advance for a flare / who can you lean on to take care of the kids or your pets, have food prepped and in the freezer so meals are easy, etc.
Be informed and educate yourself on your chronic illness
Find a source of strength in your faith and in your self-love. How you treat yourself if how people around you will treat you - when you’re hard on yourself, people will be hard on you too
Give yourself a break, love yourself, and be kind to yourself
