Stress
Stress may stimulate hormones that interact with drugs and
disrupt metabolic control. Stress-induced emotions can disrupt
a person’s relationships and routines, and affect disease
management. A patient’s emotional needs and problems are
important components of health management. Systemic
Coaching explores and redefines the fundamental relationships
between disease and life.
Control Stress Forever
Depression
In Therapeutic Coaching, depression is seen as a healthy
response to an unhealthy environment. Often the underlying
issue is guilt. Depressive guilt results from:
 abuse, betrayal or abandonment (violating trust, for
example betraying a partner)
 relationship transferences (mistaking one person for
another, e.g. perceiving a partner or ex-partner as an
abandoned child).
Depression may make it harder to follow medical treatment.
Treatment for depression helps people manage disease, for both
survival and quality of life.
Symptoms of Depression
If these or similar symptoms are present each day for a few
weeks; and interfere with daily activities such as work, self-care,
child-care or social life; seek professional help.
