Shock, doubt, anxiety — a diagnosis of Parkinson’s can trigger these and many other difficult emotions. This replay of audio from our Third Thursdays Webinar features a conversation among people with Parkinson’s about how they processed the emotional aftermath and navigated the early years following their diagnosis. We also hear from a psychologist who specializes in Parkinson’s about what she’s learned about how people deal with this life-changing diagnosis and ways to manage the emotions in a positive way.
