These days we are discharged from hospital faster than ever before. We're supposed to be 'our old selves', to 'bounce back', to 'get well soon'. But no one tells us how. Serious health problems - including heart attack, cancer, stroke or surgery - can take their toll not just on your body, but on your emotions, morale and well-being. In days gone by, a period of convalescence was the norm - a time to rebuild both mind and body. Nowadays it seems no one has the time to convalesce. Consequently, many of us suffer, often in silence, long after our physical symptoms are under control. In How To Feel Better, the authors offer simple, evidence-based strategies that will help you move on and cope after a serious health problem.
These include:
* Getting the best from your follow-up care
* Dealing with worry, stress and low mood
* Feeling confident again
* Understanding and managing fatigue
* Rebuilding your strength and well-being through relaxation, exercise and eating well
