RE: Learned Helplessness: The Reason it's So Easy to Lose Hope with Chronic Illness

in #psychology7 years ago (edited)

hello. I have shizofrenia and it has been quit a ride the last 12 years. It seemed hopeless since doctors where saying it would never go better. But i never give up fully. There where dark times but reprogramming myself the whole time and trying to see beauty in life is what kept me going. Thanks for this wonderfull post. Followed

I'm glad you liked it! I just learned about it recently and thought, "Wow, this explains so much!" Glad to hear that you've never given up. I know the temptation can be so strong to give up. I've been close myself. But like you, I'm glad I never stopped fighting. I'm in a good place these days.
