Season 2, Ep 9 Welcome to The Chronic Chronicles, I'm SO happy that you're here! If you've ever walked out of a doctor's appointment feeling unheard, defeated, or straight-up gaslit — this episode is for you. In today's solo episode, I'm getting real about what it actually looks like to advocate for yourself in the healthcare system as someone with a chronic illness. From the emotional toll of being dismissed to the prep work, scripts, and boundaries I use to protect my peace — we're talking through it all. You'll hear: How I prepare for appointments so I don't freeze in the room Exactly what I say when I'm not being taken seriously How I handle the emotional crash after an appointment And the self-advocacy lessons I wish I knew years ago Whether you're seeing a new specialist, managing multiple conditions, or just tired of feeling like a "difficult patient," this one's a must-listen. You're not alone — and you deserve care that actually cares. 🎧 Listen, take notes, and send this to a friend who's prepping for their next appointment.
