Mental Health and FA
I recently attended the Friedreich’s Ataxia Symposium in Philadelphia, PA, hosted by the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP). This informational event is a great way to connect with patients, the FA Community, and researchers to learn about the latest news on the disease.
One of the breakout sessions was “Mind Matters: Mental Wellness in Friedreich’s Ataxia,” and it was really impactful to hear a patient’s journey alongside her therapist, discussing best practices and tools when dealing with a chronic illness.
Do you see a therapist to help cope with FA? How has it helped you? Are there any other ways you manage your mental health?
