How to Do Life with a Chronic Illness

Reclaim Your Identity, Create Independence, and Find Your Way Forward

By: Pippa Stacey

Narrated by: Pippa Stacey

'I know that living with a chronic illness in this inaccessible world is tough. Trust me, I know. But you deserve to find peace and contentment just as much as anybody else. So welcome to your one-stop guide on how to make the most of life alongside your condition, in a way that truly works for you'.

Chronic illness affects everybody differently, but we all share the goal of living meaningfully and making the most of what we have. This book exists to help you take accessible steps towards that goal and build a life that truly feels like yours.

Instead of focusing on the medical side of long-term conditions, this book dives into the important parts of everyday living that often go unspoken about - from practical advice on friendships, dating and independent living, to more reflective guidance on rediscovering your identity and learning to self-advocate.

Between these pages, you'll find bespoke information and resources curated through 10+ years of lived experience, alongside words of wisdom from diverse contributors and subject experts. This book also contains journal prompts, resource lists, and (perhaps most importantly) words of comfort and validation that people with life-altering conditions simply do not hear enough.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Great wisdom from lived experiences

A ton of good advice and insight for managing difficult health situations. Pippa says a lot I’ve heard before from therapists and psychiatrists in my own life journey. Her voice is calm and soothing, and her intelligent, helpful encouragement will stay with me.

Like hearing a reassuring friend :-)

I absolutely loved this book, it was like hearing from a reassuring friend :-) I have been chronically ill for 14 years now. I've learned so much from people like Pippa in the disabled / chronic illness community. It has changed my life and I am forever grateful for their hard work and vulnerability in sharing this message <3 Blessings to you Pippa!

This is needed!

Thank you so much for sharing! this book is exactly what I've been looking for 🤗
