...yes, unfairness and it's corrosiveness. You sound like you've definately had your share. I really don't know how you managed to try again. How, when it is so hard? The times when I've needed help the most nobody was there. The anorexia was a terribly hard one to get help with. An ER doc tricked me into volunteering for a psych assessment with one of their pdocs, which I showed up for. And after it was all over he said, Yes you definately need help and need to be seeing someone but I don't take on anorexics.
He didn't say anything as horrible as the D-word though. That probably would've sent me over the edge. You have been through so much. ~~~~safe empthy vibes~~~~ (instead of hugs) It is hard enough to decide you want help. But to ask for it and not get it is almost embarassing. No it IS embarassing. It made me feel like a weak, cry-baby jerk for asking.
Actually, the description of one the numbers said the word "feminist" in it. But I wasn't sure what that meant. Like, what is the difference.
Thanks for saying I do deserve comfort. It is frustrating when the only thing I've found comforting is a scale dipping lower. And that's not likely right now :( I would like very much for a little sunshine.
