In part 2 of this series, Anna covers communication, needs, and a framework for understanding relationship dynamics. The goal of the episode is to support communication so that both the illness experiencer and their supporters have their needs met. The relationship framework will help deepen your understanding of your relationships so that you are not left disappointed (and unsupported) when your expectations are not met. 

Accompanying journaling exercise:

  1. How am I currently being supported in a way that is meaningful to me?
  2. Is support being offered in a way that is unhelpful or possibly counterproductive to my healing?
  3. What support am I not currently receiving that I would like to receive?
  4. What do I need to ask for specifically? Be as specific as possible.

Here are some examples:
