Time for an audiobook! I made four phone calls to doctors today and I am now exhausted. #Anxiety and #TraumaRecovery and #medicalptsd make those calls difficult and draining. Books to the rescue! Have you read Piglet? #BookTwitter #bookworm #audiobook #read #listen

Medical gaslighting standard: “But you don’t look sick” 🙄🙌😬 #medicalptsd #crpsawareness #medicalgaslighting #crps #crpswarrior #InvisibleIllness #invisibledisability #InvisibleNoMore #chronicillness #raredisease #gaslit #trauma #medicalmistreatment

@[email protected] and @drmroz.bsky.social Too bad they didn’t ask me to come share stories. I have so many about how I’ve been traumatized within the medical system. It would be a real eye opener for them. #MedicalPTSD #Gaslighting #Neglect

I've experienced such profound post exertional malaise that even watching others engage in exercise or activity makes me very anxious sometimes. Does anyone else experience this or am I alone in this weird part of the world of #medicalPTSD? #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis #pwME

True story. #MedicalPTSD #PainCareCrisis #chronicillness

can simultaneously address the chronic pain and the PTSD [as well as any other comorbid mental health conditions like depression and anxiety] #disabilityawareness #disabledmentalhealth #mentalhealth #chronicpainpatient #intractablepain #trauma #cptsd #medicalptsd #medicaltrauma

All these healthy people who just love to talk about the healthcare system like they even know how broken the whole system is. What good is healthcare access when you can't get care? #PainCareCrisis #chronicillness #MedicalPTSD

Kelly Well said. More disturbing than #notallmen really being #toomanymen, is #medicalmisogyny being much more than #genderbias among #doctors, #toomanydoctors, and we who suffer & die because of it. We share our #medicalptsd, but few of us have ability left to share our worst stories.

My appointment was rescheduled. All the stress of anticipating a very long journey, setting up transport, planning for PEM, etc. has been extended/delayed for yet another week. Can't tell you how tired I am of having to run the gauntlet to get medical care. 😞 #MedicalPTSD #pwME

Have a medical appt this week. 6 hour round trip. May end up with referral to specialists & extensive cardio and/or neuro workup in the near future. #PEM ramifications of even 1 simple appointment for someone w/#MECFS, #ChronicPain, and #medicalPTSD is a primary barrier to care.

It is a downer of a topic but it is crucial to bring it out into the open: tinyurl.com/dh23m9uz #gaslighting #medicalptsd #ptsd #menshealth #selfcare #mentalhealth 💕 #Wellness

4 minutes is rather generous. Bet the patient wasn't touched even once either or given eye contact. #MedicalPTSD #chronicillness #PainCareCrisis

To finally break down and go to the doctor because all the OTCs and 'alternatives' haven't worked, only to be told to try the OTCs and 'alternatives' again, is beyond insulting. It's actually intentional dereliction of duty. #PainCareCrisis #MedicalPTSD #RxMedicinesSaveLives

Llloyd - TOTALLY VAXED♿💉💉💉💉💉🌻 You have to be very careful even implying any self harm or even depression or anxiety. It's just another way to deny you pain medicine. It's criminal that even our mental health is now being affected by this insanity. #PainCareCrisis #MedicalPTSD #ChronicPain
