I'm glad you're finally getting some proper attention, hippocampus.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
this feels like madness after 12 years of being told it's nothing/ it's all of these things that it wasn't / it's anxiety! (it's not anxiety, jerks)
It is horrible that you have had to endure this for so many years. I sincerely hope that a real and effective plan happens.
It's awful that we have to say, "Congrats having your health taken seriously," but here we are. I am glad you now have support and people working towards a plan, hippocampus.
That's a lot, hippo. I am glad you are being taken seriously and hope this leads to good outcomes for you.
The kids are making an offer on a great house for them today. It is just a few blocks from her parents. All digits crossed.
Offer~ma! Very cool, Laura.
Wow, that's huge! Good luck to them.
My job is stressing me out, because I'm never doing enough or enough of the right things or something. I think it will be OK, but JFC. I think it's partly because people's sense of urgency here is weird. My boss was telling me to do some planning and meeting and stuff, in a way that made me feel like I should have already done it, but then suggested I do it in January! Well, shit. So now I'm stressed out about it AND it's fine! Catch up, brain.
I hear ya Jesse. I keep thinking it will get better...my current hope is once I'm off the one project I'm on the new one will be better? But it could be frying pan into the fire situation. Eek.
Ooof, I've had two friends told (for years) they were crazy/hysterical/all-in-their-head despite manifesting physical symptoms for major chronic illness. And yes, the medical gaslighting is incredibly damaging. Gee, were they both women? You know how hysterical women get.
Yep, this this this.
And it's so frustrating.
Good luck to the kids, Laura!
I hear ya Jesse and meara. I have no idea how to prioritize what duties I have been shown how to do, so I just do whatever and occasionally someone will say something is actually urgent but mostly nothing seems to be and it's very weird.
