About the project
A series of conversations about emotions with cancer in the background, called CANCER-lessons.
Specialists from the Intergratio - Center for Psychotherapy and Relationship Development talk about the difficult emotions that we encounter during illness.
We will face them together, tame them, and perhaps even manage to accept them?
EPISODE 1:
"Setting boundaries in crisis"
Dealing with illness, we need support, understanding, and care.
Taking care of ourselves and others.
Exactly what we need.
This may trigger the need to set a boundary or establish and protect it.
EPISODE 2:
"Addiction in illness"
Addictions to substances as well as behavioral ones.
What makes us more susceptible to risky behaviors? How to deal with it and what can I do as a loved one in a situation when I cannot cope with the addiction of someone close to me? This may trigger the need to set a boundary or establish and protect it.
EPISODE 3:
"Employee struggling with illness"
Wise support for an employee struggling with illness in the workplace.
How to approach the topic of a coworker's illness in the workplace? How to discuss illness in the workplace? Contrary to many concerns, is an employee after illness less valuable?
EPISODE 4:
"How to talk to children about your illness?"
The child's feelings during their mother's illness.
How to talk to children about cancer and your own illness? What to say? How to say it and is it even worth talking about?
EPISODE 5:
"Why are they leaving?"
Why, in times of crisis, do our loved ones sometimes choose to leave?
Why do they abandon us in sickness?
How can we cope with loss?
How to avoid feeling guilty that they left because we weren't enough?
How to accept our life after the change?
