Coping When Lyme Makes Life Feel Out Of Control

Control issues are extremely common in the Lyme/chronic illness/disability communities (and so many others), yet they aren't talked about nearly as much as they should be. This episode tackles a huge topic we deal with daily in a variety of ways, covering everything from Lyme rage episodes and dietary and lifestyle adjustments to relationships, laundry, and advice for when everything feels overwhelming.

And, to stay on theme, there may even be a moment where this episode about "control" goes off the rails just enough to land us in a laughing fit. We hope you get something out of this one!

Content warning: discussion of food, disordered relationships with food, and mention of eating disorders.

This episode features Brooke Stoddard, Jennifer Hoffmann, Rivka Savage, and Jesse Ruben from Generation Lyme, a community for people facing Lyme and other tick-borne diseases.
