Use your imagination: You’ll have to imagine a lot during your intensive therapy program. This can be difficult, especially if you don’t know what to expect. Try imagining what it feels like to be outside on a windy day when you are very sick. Try imagining it in winter and spring when everything is green and vibrant rather than gray, cold and washed out.

Think ahead: Make sure that there are things that you will want for yourself once your treatment is over — whether that’s going for walks or playing video games with friends or watching TV shows on Netflix with your family or getting back into the swing of simple things like running through the park again or trying something new at work again (like helping others.)

Tell them about how you feel: If someone in your life asks about how you are, or even if they ask you to talk about it, try talking about how you feel. Don’t take it personally if they don’t recognize an aspect of your experience with them. You don’t owe anyone a conversation on your feelings and there is no need to explain everything at once.

Reassure yourself: It can be easy when things get hard to look for the bad stuff and focus on what’s wrong instead of what’s right — but that just makes things worse for both of you! Try taking time for yourself today and doing something for yourself like taking a bath, writing in a journal or listening to music that relaxes you and reminds you that everyone goes through things during their treatment process.
