Episode notes
Constantly seeking out only the negative aspects of a chronic condition can lead to a skewed perception of reality. Instead, one must also acknowledge moments of improvement, however small they may be. This practice, referred to as attention to symptom variability, encourages mindfulness, emphasizing the importance of noticing changes in one’s condition. While the medical community may unintentionally convey a sense of hopelessness regarding control and improvement, symptom fluctuations are natural and inevitable. Regular check-ins can reveal times when the condition is better or worse, challenging the misconception that it is always deteriorating. By recognizing these fluctuations and understanding their causes, individuals can cultivate a more positive mindset, leading to improved emotional well-being.
