Читать книгу The Cancer Directory - Dr. Daniel Rosy - Страница 56

In this chapter, you have been advised to:

• Have support when you receive the news of your diagnosis, taking action to find the results yourself if you have been waiting for more than a week for results.

• Be aware of the powerful effects of shock and be very protective of yourself.

• Avoid having treatment or making big decisions while still in shock, asking for more time to consider your treatment options.

• Seek help from counsellors or other support services before you tell the news to others. You’ll need to express your emotions.

• Take advantage of the support available. You are not alone!

• Develop a strong belief in your treatments, your self-healing ability and the power of spiritual healing.

• Gather a strong emotional-support network behind you comprising friends, therapists and a support group.

• Use hypnotherapy, visualization and affirmation to empower your treatments and recovery.

• Find counselling help to enable you to express your feelings, decrease your stress, heal past emotional wounds, and start living a lifestyle that is truly fulfilling and exciting.

• Bring yourself out of isolation, depression, stress, fear and anxiety by changing negative beliefs and coping styles for positive ones, getting professional therapeutic help until you are strong and positive.
