Join myself, Melanie and Dee as we discuss some of the chronic illness misconceptions. Melanie and I discuss the chronic illness misconception that ‘chronic illness is caused by anxiety, depression + trauma’, while we do believe these things do influence and impact chronic illness, it’s always important to look for more of a root cause. We also discuss the misconception that it’s ‘easy for people with a chronic illness to get help for mental health’. If you’d like to follow Melanie’s Instagram her handle is @melaniefoulkescounselling. I am also joined by Dee from @dee.zoe, we discuss the misconception of ‘you need to look sick to be sick’ as well as ‘being too young to be sick’.
