DESCRIPTION:Caring for someone with PANS/PANDAS comes with unique challenges and is often scary, and unpredictable. This can result in high caregiver burden and symptoms of depression, anxiety, and posttraumatic stress. Participants will learn about coping strategies to allow them to better support themselves and their loved ones. We will discuss how to navigate conversations with healthcare professionals, manage PANS/PANDAS crises, reduce stress, increase positive coping, and improve support networks.
Learning Objectives
~ Attendees will learn about preliminary pilot study data on the prevalence of symptoms of depression, anxiety, caregiver burden, and post traumatic stress disorder in parents of youth with PANS.
~ Attendees will improve their ability to manage challenging situations, such as PANS/PANDAS crises and conversations with medical professionals.
~ Attendees will learn how to apply coping strategies to better take care of themselves in their challenging and rewarding role as caregivers.
