Medical gaslighting occurs when a healthcare provider dismisses, minimizes, or questions your symptoms in a way that makes you doubt your own experience. This can leave patients feeling unheard, frustrated, or even ashamed of their own bodies. It can delay proper diagnosis, treatment, and healing, and may contribute to increased anxiety or stress around medical care.

Anxiety and panic attacks can profoundly affect you physical and emotional well-being. I am personally familiar with both, having experienced them myself throughout my life. I understand how intense they can be and how they can cause upheaval in ones life.
