    A must-read book for those looking to live joyful lives with chronic pain/illness!
  

*by L***I on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 7, 2021*

I love this book.  I really love this book!I run a Facebook community for those who live with chronic pain and illness called "Attitude of Gratitude with Chronic Pain."  We strive to find happiness and fulfillment and incorporate gratitude into our daily lives.THIS BOOK just knocked my socks off and is a favorite among my group members, as well!Joy Selak and Dr. Steven Overman bring such an insightful and unique perspective by offering incredibly helpful suggestions from both the patient's AND the doctor's point of view!  They offer advice on the "now what?" part of our journeys with chronic pain after coming to a place of acceptance.  They talk about finding that place of peace and how to treat our circumstances with grace while taking control of our own well-being.I have stickies and highlights all over this book.  It's THAT good!I was fortunate enough to interview Ms. Selak for a weekly live broadcast that I do and the viewers were blown away by her comforting wisdom, beautiful insight,  and how she lives HER best life with invisible illness.As far as I'm concerned, this book is essential reading for those who are willing to take steps towards healing from the emotional pain that most often accompanies the physical.  I have read a LOT of books on how to best thrive with chronic illness....this one is one that I refer back to again and again and is never far out of my reach when I need a tidbit of hope.  This book offers hope which can be difficult to attain when you feel you've tried everything.A favorite, for sure!  HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

    I am sick!
  

*by A***C on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 31, 2015*

I think this is a good book on living with chronic illness for a lot of chronically ill people. This book was written by Joy and her rheumatologist Dr. Overman. Joy's chronic illnesses started in the 1980's steadily worsening over time. Joy has multiple chronic illnesses like most of us. Joy and Dr. Overman came up with the Four Phases of Invisible Chronic Illness. I found that most of them overlapped in one way or another. Good advice was given throughout the book a lot of it useful for everyone that is chronically ill. Joy has multiple chronic illnesses like most of us. Joy also felt that a holistic like type of approach was better for her which I had trouble understanding when Dr. Overman gave her medication that helped her but she felt a stigma against taking. I liked the part of the book about grief and acceptance of your illness. That you have to mourn for your old life like a death and find a new path that your body can handle. I feel stuck in many of the phases portrayed in this book but this one is the worst for me. I started to get sick in my late teens and it got progressively worse until I have become completely disabled. I mourn for a life I never got to have. That is something very hard to get past. A part of the book I do not agree with is that Joy believes that she has gotten sick for a reason and that her illnesses are a blessing. I would not wish what I have on my worst enemy and it feels very far from a blessing. This is a good read. I think it will be helpful for a lot of people. I do not think you have to believe in all of the book for it to be helpful to you. I will be rereading it this book. The second time through I think you can take even away more from a book of this kind.

    An Important Contribution to the Chronic Illness Community
  

*by B***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 26, 2022*

Seeing a doctor and a patient team up to advocate for chronic illness was a delight. I don’t know how many other books have been written like this but both voices need to be heard if progress is to be made.
