@outlanderI am guessing by avoiding the question that not everything is ok. As always I am here if you need to talk or we can just sit

its i dont know @Snowie everything. nothings really changed. i felt very brushed off by my gp and rushed today. took alot to even get her to let me get a blood test done. she didnt want to give me that for allergy testing etc but talked her into it. then basically passed out while getting bloods done. the first vein only got half a tube not even that- im usually ok if they get it first go but they had to use 3 different veins to get the amount they needed and they used a rather big needle- bigger than they ususally have to use. so once she said she had to do it on the opposite arm went even more white so ended up laying down while they done the other 2 goes. they closed the door to where i was and got other people in the other room so they could keep the line moving.
shes not touching my meds for another month yet, doesnt think i need to see her weekly even though the psychiatrist said it would be a good idea and she said ' i think your doing well what do you think; and i said no i dont think im doing well at all. obvisouly didnt get the point across. told her about the trauma therapy and she didnt have much to say about that either.
she checked the xrays and itll be another 3 weeks in this splint before moving onto the next stage of splinting/taping.
pops got the drs on monday for his flu shot and finally has accepted help for one of his ailments which is his ankle. but hes getting a cold by the sounds of it as well and the cold always gets to him. im showing signs of a cold which im hoping wont keep progressing.
still havent really slept but i guess thats nothing new there. gp wont do sleepers and neither will the psychiatrsit.
i feel asking for help is getting rather pointless, feeling very unworthy of it and like i have to go it alone. a waste of air and resources.
sorry.. i guess maybe it not 'ok i guess'

@outlanderdon't be sorry hun, it seems like you needed to get it out and I today I can give you that support. Firstly, I am glad your pop has accepted help. Hopefully you are not getting a cold...perhaps some sort of oil might help....not sure on that, might have to look it up.
Your Gp sounds very harsh and not taking your welfare into account which concerns me. I can understand the feeling you have around this. Perhaps it is a good time to search for a new GP, one more in tune with mental health.
As much as you might feel unworthy, that is so not the case. You are worth it sweetie

@outlanderI agree with what @Sans911 has written. So eloquently as always Sans.
I wish I could stay but have already taken meds so brain going a bit foggy. I hope you get some sleep sweetie. You are always in my thoughts and always sitting next to you
