Multiple sclerosis sucks; I should know, I’ve got it. Luckily, it is possible to grow from terrible things and a field of psychology, known as Positive Psychology, can help us to understand how. Each week we take a look at a new field of the science of Psychology, we understand and implement the science, and together as a community we’re going to learn to thrive in the context of Multiple Sclerosis.

Episode 3: Post-traumatic growth

Today we take a look at the possibilities for growth that might emerge from trauma, a field of research known as post-traumatic growth. We take a look at how MS might be fertile ground for growth in this way, and we consider what the science can teach us about how we can get some of that sweet, sweet growth.
