Challenges of Living with Chronic Illness
Chronic illnesses, such as Ehlers Danlos Syndrome (EDS), Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), autoimmune disorders, chronic fatigue syndrome, chronic pain, or cancer, often bring a significant emotional toll. You may feel isolated, frustrated, or even hopeless as you navigate the demands of daily life. Balancing medical treatments, work, relationships, and self-care can also feel like a constant struggle.
