Mental Health and OI
When discussing the mental health of individuals with Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI), it is essential to approach the conversation with sensitivity, as OI is a rare genetic condition that primarily affects the bones, leading to frequent fractures, skeletal deformities, and other related health challenges. The mental health of those living with OI can be influenced by both the physical challenges they face and the social, emotional, and psychological aspects of managing a chronic condition.
