Living with Long covid
This podcast aims to raise awareness of long covid, provide a platform of support, education and the lived experience.My name is Julie, I am a registered nurse in the UK. I became unwell with Covid in May 2020 while working on the front line, during the first wave of the pandemic. Subsequently I live with long covid and POTS ( postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome). I would like to share my journey and lived experience, the symptoms and how each impacts daily life. I aim to not only consider the physical issues but also the impact this has had mentally and emotionally. It is reported over 2 million people in the UK and an estimated 65 million worldwide, live with long covid. This is huge, and affects every area of a persons life, their family, friendships and work life. Join me and some great guests and let’s Learn, advocate and continue this journey together.
Living with Long covid
The autonomic nervous system, gaslighting and feeling able to talk about anxiety and depression
On this podcast I talk about anxiety and depression, the gaslighting, mental health and the autonomic nervous system.
In this episode I discuss the importance of feeling able to talk about anxiety and depression and how this has an effect on our lives. I discuss how important mental health is, how it should not be made taboo or minimised.
I talk about the autonomic nervous system and dysregulation of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system . I explain how this has effected me and the symptoms I have experienced. I discuss how these symptoms can be managed and what helps me to stabilise my autonomic nervous system dysregulation. I am passionate about this subject as I do not think anxiety and depression should be minimised or made taboo. I hope this helps you guys to feel empowered to talk about your emotions, any anxiety and depression without fear of judgement. Please feel free to contact me vis my social platforms, details below. I hope you have the best day you can, as I always say, one day at a time.
