Best Friends Club

Hello @Clawde 😊

@Adge I'm on the DSP and have been in it for over a year. how long are you now waiting for the results since your sonic appointment (if you had one already)?

I would give them a call especially when it gets to the 5 week period of waiting after sonic.

The moment I gave them a call they were able to find my application and gave me the outcome of the DSP (which was approved) - perhaps you can try give them a call too? you'll never know if the same thing would/might happen to you 🙂

I too had to spend about 4 (or a bit over that) months in getting all of the diagnosis reports for the application from different specialists - clinical psychologist, occupational therapist, speech therapist - you name it, and then the 20 points table form thingy (that i had to get the clinical psychologist to fill in) from my DSP advocate.

It was extremely really hard work that I had to put into to get the DSP. 🙂

@avant-garde Teehee welcome to the club!

@Blackcloud oh wow have you ever done a long commute like that?

When I was in high school, I did a 1.5hr bus ride to school, and 2.5 hours home. 4 hours a day!! It was so gnarly. But I really wanted to do drama 😂

Ugh @Shaz51 you seem to have to relay soooo much complex info between docs and family and back again... would get exhausting!!

I am off, catch you all next time besties 😋💜

It's been in my favourites for MONTHS

I apologise in advance for the consistent sarcasm. Apparently I'm more fluent in it when I'm in a bad mood. My case manager has taught me this about myself.

I have no energy to pretend to be happy and like life is fairyland.

@PeppyPatti do you keep your onions 🧅 in the fridge?

I keep my onion 🌰 in the fridge @Glisten , @PeppiPatty

@Shaz51 I know right. Shazzy, that’s two of us for onions 🧅 in the fridge ✅

@PeppyPatti

I was with a friend of mine the other day having lunch at Paddy's Markets, we're both members of the same church and both LGBTQI, and the look of hatred we got from a couple sitting at the table next to ours just because we're transgender, we weren't even talking to them. I just returned their stare with one of "You hate us, so what?". They got up and left. That's a victory.
