Trying makes it worse

Trying makes it worse

Hi,

I'm EternalFlower and I've been feeling completely overwhelmed, sad, and pessimistic.

I've tried and been a responsible patient and person, reaching out to various services when I started feeling scarily anxious and suicidal, 2 years back..

My Dr is new, a young guy who regularly admits he's inexperienced, and aside from some good jokes, he actually does very little

I notice how easy it is to blame myself that I don't feel better, a total shame spiral, but I wander if my treatments just are bad....

I wanted to chat and hear anyone and hope I can use this space to help not feel so alone.

Thanks xxx EternalFlower

Hi @TAB it doesn't sound silly to me, it sounds like u get what I've been going through.

I have been very drained. They wrote me a letter with a set of rules for me engaging in the service

They said I can't get my support person to cancel appointments for me, which I had done once.

They said many other things I can't do,

I felt like I was devastated when I read the letter, a list of strict rules.

It seemed designed to scare, I am not scared, though

Re: Trying makes it worse

Should I ask what scheme are they using @EternalFlower ? Just have to be careful. I come unstuck occasionally when pressured by govt contractors.. but mostly, I mostly get what I want ok Most of the time.. lol...😸😎 stuff them they are trying to get money from govt like I do. Except they get way more etc lol
