Living with Parkinson’s

The Shocking Reality of Living with Parkinson’s Long-Term

Bryce Perry Season 1 Episode 36

What happens when Parkinson’s stops following the “rules”? When symptoms change overnight—or your reflection doesn’t even look like you anymore? 

In this powerful episode, Bryce opens up about the long-haul experience of living with Parkinson’s for over 15 years. From unexpected symptoms like facial masking to emotional crashes in the car after tough appointments, he shares the truths no one tells you in the brochure. It’s raw. It’s real. It’s what long-term Parkinson’s really feels like.

He talks about the moment he couldn’t recognize himself, why freezing during a kitchen dance turned into something beautiful, and how his symptoms didn’t get worse—they got creative. Whether you’re newly diagnosed or many years in, this is the episode you didn’t know you needed.

🧠 Bryce-ism of the Episode:

“With Parkinson’s, your identity might change—but your value never does.

⚠️ Important Note

This is my personal Parkinson’s medication journey—what works for me may not work for everyone. Parkinson’s is different for each person, and medication plans should always be tailored to individual needs. Before making any changes to your medication or treatment, consult with your doctor or healthcare provider.
