This episode explores the pervasive sense of impending doom that many people with chronic health conditions experience. It delves into both external and internal pressures to seize opportunities and "live life to the fullest" before their condition potentially worsens. Hosts Sally Shaw and Seona Illaio examine how this messaging, often conveyed by well-meaning friends, family, and even society, can create a sense of urgency and fear, leading to feelings of inadequacy or anxiety. It also looks at how these messages are internalised, influencing decisions and behaviours, and the emotional toll it takes on those trying to balance the desire to live fully with the reality of their health condition.
