What happens when the person who advocates for everyone else has to walk into a room and advocate for themselves? In this episode of *Nervous System Reset for Caregivers*, Michelle explores what happens when a caregiver becomes a patient — and why getting care for your own body can be so difficult when you're already carrying the physical, emotional and mental load of caring for someone else. For many caregivers, attending their own medical appointment involves arranging support, preparing detailed handovers, managing routines and carrying the mental load of their loved one's care into the waiting room. Michelle shares her own experience of having significant physical symptoms dismissed and attributed to motherhood, anxiety and caregiving stress — and the four-year delay before the underlying condition was identified. This episode explores caregiver health, women's healthcare, delayed diagnosis, medical dismissal and practical self-advocacy. ### In this episode: • Why caregivers often delay or deprioritise their own healthcare • The hidden work required to attend your own medical appointments • What happens when caregiver symptoms are attributed to stress • Why ā€œnormal resultsā€ don't necessarily mean everything is normal • The gender gap in medical diagnosis and treatment • How to prepare for your own medical appointment • What to say when the first explanation doesn't fit • Why advocating for your own health isn't selfish ### A practical advocacy phrase If you've been told your symptoms are related to stress or caregiving, you can say: **ā€œI understand that stress can contribute to physical symptoms, and I would like to make sure we have also ruled out a physical cause through investigation. Can you tell me what tests you would recommend to do that?ā€** You don't have to be confrontational to advocate for yourself. You can be calm, clear and persistent. ### Your small next step If there is a symptom you've been dismissing or a medical appointment you've been avoiding, write down one sentence: **What is my body trying to tell me?** You don't have to solve everything today. Just give it somewhere to exist outside of you. ### Chapters 00:08 — Introduction: The caregiver's dual role and systemic challenges ### Resources for Caregivers 🌸 **Radiant Moments Gratitude Journal — Free Gift** [Get the Gratitude Journal](https://jandbinspired.com/radiant-moments-gratitude-journal?utm_source=chatgpt.com) 🌿 **90 Second Reset Program** [Explore the 90 Second Reset](https://jandbinspired.com/90-second-reset-program?utm_source=chatgpt.com) šŸ’› **Mission Statement for Caregivers** [Read the Mission Statement](https://jandbinspired.com/jandboasis-mission-statement?utm_source=chatgpt.com) 🌱 **Oasis Signature Program** [Learn about Oasis Signature](https://link.jandbinspired.com/widget/form/w3HKv1FKxfrYuaYhtEsg?notrack=true&utm_source=chatgpt.com) šŸ—£ļø **What to Say in Hard Appointments — Live Workshop | 8 October** [Register for the Workshop](https://jandbinspired.com/steadycare?utm_source=chatgpt.com) If you've ever walked into a medical room for yourself and walked out feeling unheard, this episode is for you. **Your health matters.

As a caregiver, it's essential to prioritize your own health and wellbeing, including caregiver self care and caregiver self advocacy, to avoid caregiver burnout and caregiver stress. On this episode, we'll explore the importance of medical advocacy and healthcare advocacy, particularly for women's health, and provide tips on how to advocate for yourself during medical appointments. We'll also discuss the impact of medical dismissal on caregivers and the nervous system reset that's often needed to cope with the mental load of caregiving. Join us as we delve into the world of caregiver support and caregiver health, and learn how to navigate the complex healthcare system with confidence, inspired by the stories and expertise shared on the J and B Inspired podcast, a leading caregiving podcast. By the end of this video, you'll be empowered to take control of your health and wellbeing, and find the support you need as a caregiver. 0:00 When the Advocate Becomes the Patient 2:51 The Invisible Load Before the Appointment 5:31 When Your Body Speaks a New Language 9:29 The Research on Diagnostic Inequity 12:44 Why Caregivers Deprioritise Their Health 19:02 Practical Steps for Self-Advocacy
