Even in sickness, be a friend

Audiobook by Radkin Honzak And in sickness be a friend

Most of us can take good care of our loved ones when they have problems or health difficulties, but at the same time we cannot take good care of ourselves in such a situation. Being a friend to ourselves in sickness does not mean that we should be our own doctor. However, it requires that we are able to handle ourselves correctly when we are at the crossroads of paths, one leading to illness and the other to health. Illness as a psychological burden confronts people with new problems and forces them to adapt to new demands and sometimes very strange and unexpected conditions.

The author of this popular educational publication deals with a number of related issues: What happens to a person when they get sick? How does he feel? How is he coping with his changed state? To your benefit or to your detriment? How will it be treated if the disease becomes chronic? How will it be treated if the effects of the disease persist? What are the consequences of the disease for his relationships with his immediate environment, and what are the consequences for his professional career?
