@elained .. I join the others in thanking you for sharing this article. I definitely identified in the whole article and the knowledge empowered me to rethink how I should deal with my autoimmune. After reading your post on March 11, I decided to join MayoConnect. And I continue to learn from the daily discussions posted. Since the writer said taking care of your mental health is just as important as addressing your primary health issues, I have shared your link with my psychiatrist. Sadly today
My autoimmune is flaring up caused by the tapering of my Prednisone. As stated in the article, chronic illness is a roller coaster and what works one day won’t work the next. I pray for everyone with
Chronic Illness ... that we find the best way to live our “new normal”.
