Chronic Pain can turn your life upside down. It can make you feel helpless and alone, like you have lost everything and that your life is over. What if there was another way?

Counsellor/Therapist, RN, MN
The psychology of chronic illness involves feeling helpless, victimized and powerless in our relationships. It involves people pleasing and being very dependent or living at the mercy of others. Healing chronic illness is centres around healing the control and power struggle in the relationships in childhood, specifically with a parent who had anger issues where you feared and lived your childhood tip toeing around their emotional tempers. This has perhaps translated into your adult life where you control others, get angry at others often, put others on a pedastol and feel powerless in some areas of your life. Healing your fears of feeling attacked and balancing the power in your relationships and releasing control are key to healing chronic illness.
