One area of living with an autoimmune disease that should be addressed more is the emotional toll we live with.
Living with an invisible chronic disease like ulcerative colitis brought many physical ailments, but I believe the emotional scars that I have lived with since symptoms onset and diagnosis far outweigh the physical.
We carry these emotional scars whether our disease is active or not. And this is common among other diseases as well.
Including the emotional piece in your care treatment plan is just as important as what you eat, what medicine you take, and what lifestyle habits you live by.
