Living with a chronic illness/disease can begin to feel like THE ILLNESS/DISEASE is in the driver’s seat and you are merely a passenger in your own life. A passenger that periodically gets poked, prodded, blamed, judged, pitied, scolded and forgotten. Understandably this can result in a range of negative emotions and frustrations and, sometimes, even depression. In short, people can get “sick of being sick”.
