“CONCLUSION: We might become healthier through our existential struggles; meaning is essential for a healthy life. But at the deepest level, we do not face our existential challenges to become healthy. We struggle with them because purpose, meaning, and existential concerns are of the highest value for our lives. In a highly medicalized society, we need to reinvent our language for these existential struggles, and the suffering that always accompanies them. If a concept of “existential health” can make us more aware of the fact that the existential concerns are always part of both health and illness, it is worth developing.”
