À propos de ce contenu audio

The Joy Tax Podcast is a conversation series for parents and caregivers raising a child or teen with complex, chronic conditions, such as dysautonomia, ME/CFS, Long COVID, PANS/PANDAs, MCAS. The normal parenting wisdom doesn’t fit the situations we are living through. This is a forum to share, affirm, and learn from each other. It's also a window for allies to listen in and gain deeper insight into the world we inhabit."

The show is named for one of the key symptoms of ME/CFS: post exertional malaise or PEM, or what our family calls “joy tax” which is simply a worsening of symptoms after physical, cognitive, emotional, or social exertion. Sometimes, the resulting crash can be mild, while at other times, it can lower a person’s baseline for weeks, months, or even years.

This podcast is not a substitute for medical guidance. We don't endorse specific treatments, and we encourage you to always talk to your healthcare provider before making any medical decisions.

If you have questions, comments, or are interested in appearing on the show, please email: joytaxpodcast@gmail.com
