Millions of people have long COVID and may experience cognitive, mental health, and physical side effects. Elizabeth H. Mack, MD, MS, FCCM, is joined by James C. Jackson, PhD, PsyD, to discuss practical strategies to move patients from merely surviving to thriving. Drawing on research and vast clinical experience with ICU survivors with long COVID, Dr. Jackson highlights the value of acceptance, self-care, boundary setting, social support, and posttraumatic growth - coping strategies that can help patients foster meaningful lives, even in the face of chronic conditions.
