@EternalFlower Mental health seems to require that balance between inner and outer worlds.
Personal choice has been one of the good things about NDIS for me. In life, I always had to settle and submit, and found it really difficult to start setting expectations for respect and a job well done and not accepting abuse. It has allowed a big mindset change. I do not take for granted what the services have to offer and always express gratitude, but I was always like that. There are all types out there. Sometimes problems can be just someone having a bad day, but if there continue to be repeats, and we are putting in our best from our own end, then moving on, can be the best thing to do.
I did have reservations about my support co-ordinator for a while but I called her out and she got it, and we get on well now. It really helped me. I am very sensitive and have had few rocky starts with people, but when I can speak up and be heard, then they seem to smooth out.
@EternalFlower With mental health issues, we do need to work on our sensitivity a bit, but also it is a clue about how to handle things, always a delicate path to tread and a work in progress.
Not sure if you are on NDIS, for me it has only been recent. I see it as my due, partly cos of the atrocious way I was treated trying to get help for my son over 25 years, and I worked part time anyway while being physically disabled.
