The GP resource has been developed to provide guidance on avoiding medical gaslighting and diagnostic overshadowing when consulting people with anxiety.

The guide to talking to your GP has been developed to help individuals with anxiety navigate conversations with their general practitioners (GPs) to ensure their health concerns are taken seriously and investigated appropriately.

 

Both toolkits can be downloaded here https://www.anxietyuk.org.uk/medical-gaslighting-and-diagnostic-overshadowing/
