Resilience Me - Lets Talk Mental Health and Vasculitis Series

Resilience Me is a Mental Health Campaign by Vasculitis Foundation in collaboration with Dr. Velma Mockett and the Calgary Vasculitis Association to support the Mental Health and Well-being of those living with Vasculitis. Living with Vasculitis can be difficult for anyone. This condition can place substantial physical and emotional strains on those living with it.

Now, COVID-19 is adding to already present stress that impacts us on many levels in terms of medical and physical health, emotional and mental health. An increasingly important aspect of the COVID-19 pandemic is how the pandemic impacts our mental health, overall well-being, and how we cope with the pandemic, especially as it continues on for a longer period than we may have anticipated or hoped.

Inspired by Dr. Mockett's own experiences of working to gain an advantage over Vasculitis. Resilience Me will provides the tools to help you work through the mental health challenges, strengthen your resilience capacities and build a management plan with your healthcare provider and take a more active role in your care.
