Our mission is to give all patients across the world the power to take control of their health and feel like themselves again. That’s why – as well as being able to use our app for free – we also try to create as many free worksheets and resources as possible.
We’ve created a simple, bullet-journal-style symptom-tracking template that makes it easy to:
Identifying your feelings can be incredibly helpful. In fact, labelling your emotions has been shown to help reduce their intensity. But it’s not always easy to pinpoint and communicate exactly what you’re feeling. A feelings wheel is a simple, visual way to help you to overcome this problem.
When you’re visiting a new doctor, therapist, or specialist for the first time, it can be overwhelming to remember everything you need to tell them. Especially if you live with complex health issues that cause brain fog, fatigue, or anxiety.
The Chronic Illness Résumé is a simple way to collate all the information that could be useful to share with a medical professional during your first appointment with them.
Your ability to describe your pain correctly can have a big impact on your access to – and the type of – treatment you receive. However, finding the right words to describe the location, type, and severity of pain can be hard.Â
Our ‘How to describe pain’ worksheet combines useful aspects of the Defense and Veterans Pain Rating Scale, the McGill Pain Questionnaire, and descriptions of pain from the Chronic Illness community – to help you describe your pain more accurately.
When you live with chronic physical and/or mental health issues, it’s inevitable that some days are going to be harder than others.Â
On days like this, it can be helpful to acknowledge that, despite everything, you probably did a lot more than you actually gave yourself credit for.
So, to hopefully make your tough days a little easier, we’ve created a free little victories checklist. We just hope you don’t need to use it any time soon.
As a community of people managing the impact of chronic illnesses, disease and disorders on our health and well-being, mental health often looms large in our day to day lives.Â
As part of our mission to give all patients across the world the power to take control of their health, we’ve adapted some helpful mental health resources specifically for the spoonie community.
