Marisa Explains It All

Episode 3.11: Duty of Care


Listen Later

In this episode, we get real about something way too many of us have experienced: medical gaslighting. Bridgette shares a super frustrating story about going to the doctor to check in on her ADHD meds, only to be met with a woman who straight-up refused to acknowledge her *documented* ADHD diagnosis.
That convo spiraled (in the best way) into a deeper discussion about how women – especially neurodivergent babes and folks with invisible illnesses – are constantly dismissed or not taken seriously by healthcare professionals. We talk about what medical gaslighting looks like, why it’s so common and how freaking exhausting it is to have to advocate for yourself just to be heard.
