Chronic Illness, Anger, and Finding the Right Kind of Therapy

A new episode of A Body Rebels: A Chronic Illness Podcast is now available.

I’m talking about the assumptions people made about my mental health after I became seriously ill, and why sadness, grief, anger, and depression aren’t interchangeable. I share what happened when my first therapist insisted on treating a diagnosis I didn’t recognize in myself, and how Buddhist and shamanic psychotherapy later helped me examine illness, resentment, guilt, childhood wounds, and self-blame. This episode isn’t an argument against conventional therapy. It’s about finding an approach, and a person, that allows me to speak in my own language.

This podcast is narrated using an AI voice. The words, reflections, and lived experience are my own.
