A POWERFUL READ
"However, a patient can have exactly the opposite effect. I’ve seen herbal treatment that has worked amazingly well for hundreds of other patients suddenly not work for an individual who expects nothing to work for them. Unfortunately, in that mindset, they will always prove themselves right. The best thing for a patient to do is get out of the way and to let the treatment do what it’s supposed to do. Don’t keep monitoring it every step of the way, either. Give it time. Try to move on with your thoughts, and most importantly, relax."

"However, many studies across the years have shown that a positive, optimistic outlook can be a valuable tool in the fight against chronic disorders. Lyme is no different. Any illness is scary, and the lack of control the patient feels in the spread and chronic element of the disease can contribute to lowering their daily mood.

"I’ve learned a new approach to it. Instead of just getting more mad about the fact that I’m mad, I validate how I’m feeling and try to do something nice for myself, like getting something to eat or drink or lying down and resting. I remind myself that it’ll pass, and if it comes again, it will pass again after that. Even if Lyme sometimes takes over my mind, it doesn’t have to take over my life."
"Mindset is so important! Use every tool in your toolbox. Here are a few vlogs for ya!"
