Quiet Confessions: Chronic Illness, Med Tapering, and Letting Go of Mom Guilt

Thursday, October 1, 2026 • Duration 13:41

Send us Fan Mail

The change of seasons in New England is stunning, but for those of us living with chronic illness, it often brings a difficult wave of physical and mental hurdles.

In this episode of Quiet Confessions, I’m catching up with you straight from my recliner to share what’s been happening behind the scenes.

From navigating a brutal flare cycle and tapering down off psychiatric meds to wrestling with heavy mom guilt, I’m getting completely honest about where I’ve been and why things have been a bit quiet lately.

I’m talking about the pressure to prove my worth through constant productivity, how kids see us when we can’t give them everything we want, and what it really means to embrace "couch parenting." Plus, I give a quick update on where the podcast is headed as we wrap up Season 7 and gear up for Season 8!

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or like you’re falling short, let this episode be your gentle permission slip to slow down, rest, and grant yourself some grace.

Key Takeaways

Redefining Productivity: Your worth as a parent and a human isn’t tied to how many household chores you check off or how much you accomplish in a day.
The Reality of Tapering: Discontinuing perinatal mental health medications is a slow, difficult process that impacts both physical and emotional well-being.
Navigating "Couch Parenting": Being present for your kids from your bed or recliner still creates deeply meaningful, connected moments.
Releasing the Guilt: Choosing rest over hustle when you're unwell isn't selfish—it's essential for taking care of the people you love.

Soundbites

"My husband has been amazing at reminding me that my worth isn't defined by my productivity."

"When I can show up as my best self, I'm making these incredible connections with people... those connections have been honestly getting me through some really difficult times."

"If you need to rest, rest. If you need to take a break, take a break. I'll see you when I see you."
