Living with a chronic illness means your life doesn’t always run at the same pace as others — and that can feel isolating, especially during busy seasons like the end of the year. In this episode of The Dizzy Diaries, we dive into the mental health side of chronic illness: fighting comparison, embracing your current season, and learning how to adjust your expectations with compassion.
We’ll explore practical tools to help you finish the year with more ease:
✨ Auditing your rituals and routines
✨ Protecting your energy during social events
✨ Communicating with friends and family about what you can do
✨ Creating recovery time around festive gatherings
This conversation is about resilience, kindness to yourself, and reminding you that your season — whatever it looks like — still holds meaning and joy.
