Being on campus, seeing students
reminds me that I have lost something. |
“I’m a damaged person”
“People will judge me”
“I’ve missed our on big pieces of
life”
“I haven’t met my goals”
“I haven’t had normal experiences-
life has passed me by”
“I’m a failure”
“Life is not fair” |
Embarrassment
Anger
Loneliness
*Shame 60%
**Pain/Resentment/Sadness 80%
à 40% (After reviewing
countering thoughts) |
“I’m not 100% damaged”
“I have good friendships, I like who
I am, and some of my cognitive abilities work well”
“Having the illness has made me
develop in positive ways; I am a different person now”
“I have a lot of potential to share
my experience, knowledge, and expertise”
“I am unique”
“I can have caring, long-term,
committed relationships”
