Possible Hurdles to Wellness
For awhile now I've been batting around the idea of sharing my various opinions on why some people seemingly struggle with chronic illnesses while others outwardly win the battle, pulling themselves out of sickness into a state of wellness. First off, I want to say that I don't know all the answers. However, I'd like to address this subject by throwing out some ideas that I have considered. I realize that some people are likely to strongly disagree with me. That's okay. In the months and years to come as I continue with my life journey my outlook may change and I may even disagree with myself... it wouldn't be the first time. Life's experiences have a way of adjusting our thinking.Possible Hurdles to Wellness

Getting Caught Up In Seeking A Cure - Some people with chronic diseases get so caught up in the whole "battle" -- the search for solutions -- that they forget about living today. One perspective on this hurdle is in Thyroid Disease Guide Mary Shomon's article, Being Healed Versus Being Cured: A Thyroid Patient's Perspective
