The emotional component of heart disease has a major impact on your recovery:
learn ways to express feelings to those around you
most heart patients feel a loss of control, which is linked to self esteem and identity
inadequacy is also a common feeling
insecurity comes from not knowing what may come - will they have another heart attack or become an invalid
loss leads to denial, anger, bargaining, depression and finally acceptance
denial after the crisis pases can cause damage in the future
suppressing negative emotion also suppresses the immune system
Effects on the family:
family members also experience emotions, fear, anger, frustration, sadness
expectations we have developed have to be reevaluated, as do family roles
spouse needs to take care of their own needs so they can take care of the patient
Communication:
communication becomes more difficult
talk to each other about feelings, emotions and plans
talking creates intimacy and reduces anxiety
keep a notebook of feelings, thought and emotions
take a walk together
be socially connected

Stress management is a key component.
A personalized dietary plan is also important.
If there is no rehab program in your area look for support groups or start one of your own.
Social interaction with other heart patients can speed the recovery process.
