When you live with a chronic health condition, it’s easy to assume every new symptom is “just part of it.” Headache? Must be the usual. Fatigue? Classic Tuesday. But in this episode, we chat about why it’s important not to blame everything on your chronic illness. As two psychologists with lived experience, we’ve both done it—and seen our clients do it too. We talk about tuning into your body, when to get things checked, and how to advocate for yourself without spiralling into Dr. Google. Sometimes, yes, it’s your chronic condition flaring… but sometimes it’s food poisoning. Or low iron. Or just life! Tune in for a warm, honest chat—with a few laughs along the way.
