Let’s get real: nothing tests the vows of “in sickness and in health” like actually getting sick. In this powerful (and painfully honest) first episode of our two-part Sick Love series, Marisa and Britt rip the bandaid off a huge fear lurking in many chronically ill relationships: What if they leave?
This episode dives deep into the gnarly, unspoken anxiety of abandonment when illness crashes the relationship party. Spoiler: you’re not crazy for worrying—science backs it up. (Yes, we have the peer-reviewed receipts.) From subtle emotional withdrawals to actual ghosting, we break down what abandonment really looks like—and why it’s way more common (and silent) than you think.
But we’re not just here to cry into heating pads. We unpack where this fear comes from, how to talk about it with your partner, and how to begin healing when you're feeling like “too much.” Expect truth bombs, awkward laughs, maybe a few tears, and the comforting reminder that you are not alone.
So if your love life has ever had to compete with symptoms, cancelled plans, or flaming tongues (yep, that’s a thing), grab a cozy blanket and press play. Today, we’re unsubscribing from the fear of being abandoned—✨ XOXO, Marisa & Britt ***Also, please follow us on Insta @lupuschickofficial and @idliketounsibscribe and @goddoesntsuck - or learn more about us at www.Idliketounsubscribe.com -
