Join Carl on a candid episode of Behavior Gap Radio as he shares a personal health scare that led to unexpected revelations. Reflecting on his visit to the emergency room for severe pain, Carl speaks about the concept of "Diagnostic Disappointment"—the emotional complexity that arises when medical tests yield no definitive diagnosis. Through introspection and research, Carl explores the psychological, emotional, and narrative dimensions of this phenomenon, shedding light on the human need for validation, control, and coherence in the face of uncertainty. In today's episode, Carl invites listeners to consider when diagnostic disappointment shows up in their own lives and how understanding it can foster emotional resilience.
