Book excerpt: Living with a rare genetic disorder like Pachyonychia Congenita (PC) can be an overwhelming journey, often accompanied by physical discomfort, social challenges, and psychological hurdles. The unique complexities of PC affect not only the physical body but also deeply influence an individual’s mental health and quality of life. This book, Psychological Support by Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Pachyonychia Congenita, aims to provide an accessible guide to navigating these challenges using evidence-based techniques grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). CBT has long been recognized as a highly effective approach for managing a wide range of psychological conditions, and its adaptability makes it uniquely suitable for chronic genetic conditions. By understanding the intricate links between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, individuals with PC can build resilience, develop coping mechanisms, and find greater balance in the face of life’s challenges. This book also addresses the reality of chronic pain management, stigma, and the emotional weight of living with a rare condition, emphasizing the need for practical and personalized therapeutic strategies. With sections dedicated to the fundamentals of genetics, congenital conditions, and epigenetics, we aim to demystify the science behind PC, providing readers with a solid foundation upon which to understand their own experiences. Further, specific CBT tools are explored to address issues like social isolation, fear of the future, and the desire for independence. Psychological Support by Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Pachyonychia Congenita is written for both individuals living with PC and the healthcare professionals, family members, and caregivers who support them. My hope is that this book serves not only as a source of knowledge but also as a companion in the journey toward psychological resilience, self-compassion, and, ultimately, a life lived fully despite the obstacles.
