Hello everyone, hope you’re doing well today 🌼

Chronic illness can be a difficult and deeply personal journey, and for many people, faith, spirituality, or personal belief can provide strength, comfort, or guidance during difficult times.

Whether it's through prayer, rituals, community support, or personal reflection, faith can sometimes offer tools for coping and resilience.

💬 Have faith, spirituality, or your personal beliefs helped you manage your health or find peace?

💬 Are there particular practices, traditions, or teachings that have supported you during hard times?

💬 How has your relationship with your faith evolved since your diagnosis or health challenges?

All perspectives and experiences are welcome, whether your faith has been a source of strength, changed over time, or even presented its own questions along the way.

Thank you for sharing your story if you feel comfortable 💬

Take care,

Somya from the Carenity Team 🌼

My faith keeps me strong and focused, my illness makes me more understanding and compassionate with others who suffer.

Hi. Happy Monday over!! Fun to say. Faith, spirituality, helping on healing journey. I grew up in Faith based family. We lean on Heavenly Creator daily. I suppose to some extent, yes having Faith has benefitted my problems. Try to watch church weekly. Still need to finish this week's sermon ( watch it exclusively). Occasionally entire service, like funerals, yet Sunday service, the Message suffices.

Thanks for starting question Somya.

Yes, my faith has brought me through some dark times. If it weren't for God, I would probably be dead now. I tried to end my life about 12 years ago and if it weren't for the prayers of my fellow Christians I would not have made it. Prayer is a staple in my life.
