Notes from a recovered patient
You have been through a lot and naturally it has impacted you physically and mentally both. While working to improve your physical health, it is important to focus on developing yourself mentally too through resilience. Practice radical acceptance, embrace realistic optimism, reframe the negative thoughts, find positivity and find humour wherever you can.
