Medical Gaslighting - The Trailer

Hi, it's Jen Hardy!

As host of the Hardy Mom podcast I have heard story after story of medically Gaslighting. It's time to help these patients by giving them a voice.

According to the CPTSD Foundation, medical gaslighting is when a medical professional dismisses a person’s health concerns as being the product of their imagination. They may tell the person their symptoms are “in their head” or label them a hypochondriac.

Unfortunately, patients that endure medical gaslighting can go months, years, and even decades without the medical care they need. Their symptoms are being brushed off, their sanity is being questioned, their lives are being ruined.

This podcast is to empower these patients, give them a platform to share their stories, and bring recognition to what is being done to the most vulnerable population in our society. We acknowledge that there are fabulous doctors, nurses, and medical providers and the point of this is not to take away anything from those professionals.

Unfortunately medical gaslighting has reached epidemic proportions it’s time to reveal the truth and make it stop.

You're amazing - and you are loved,

Introduction to medical gaslighting

Are you a woman? A person of color?

Chances are, you’ve experienced it. But it’s not limited to us – medical gaslighting is an equal opportunity destroyer.

I have experienced medical gaslighting. Repeatedly. At first, I thought it was just me. I didn’t share my stories because I was embarrassed. I thought I must’ve done something wrong. Boy did I ever! But through my Podcast, Hardy Mom, I’ve had the opportunity to talk to other patients. And the stories they tell!

And then I started, asking the people around me, my friends, my family. And I learned that it wasn’t just me, or just the guests on my podcast. This is an epidemic! The things that are happening to the most vulnerable in our population are atrocious, a nerving, unsettling, and unacceptable.

As a disability advocate, I knew there was something I had to do. But what? I can use my voice. And that is how this podcast got started. I am using my voice, and having others use theirs. It is time, the time is now. We must make this stop. Patients must get the care they need.

No more being a victim.
