Fear and Anger in the Face of a Chronic Diagnosis

If you're a caregiver for someone with a chronic condition, you'll appreciate this hour, as Suzanne is joined by Lianna Marie, author of ''The Complete Guide for People With Parkinson’s Disease and Their Loved Ones'' and the upcoming book ''The Parkinson's Path." After denial, some go through an anger phase. It's a thing and we shouldn't ignore it. For Lianna's mother, her independence was being taken away, a frustrating situation for anyone. “There were lots of tiny moments where anger came out. Anger and defiance – I'm staying in my house no matter what – are feelings of vulnerability.” Lianna provides tips for how to deal with it. Understand where your anger is coming from, and let it out, and find constructive ways to let it out. Acknowledging it goes a long way.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
