The impact of a serious accident can turn your life upside down. Getting the right medical treatment, rehabilitation and counselling can help you to recover and come to terms with your new way of life.
Dealing with grief
It is normal to experience feeling of grief following a serious accident. The feelings of anger, sadness, fear and frustration, relating to why the accident happened to you and grief for your way of life pre-accident, can weigh down on you and impact your relationships with your loved ones
Mental Health
Recovering from a serious injury can be quite isolating and frustrating for many, as you come to terms with your lack of independence and new way of life. It is therefore important to look after your mental health and talk about how you are feeling with friends and family if you are struggling. Communication with your loved ones can help to boost your mood and make the healing process easier on yourself.
