Oh yeah we so often get sick at the most inconvenient times @tyme 

My appointment was heaps invalidating, she completely dismissed the scary and concerning symptoms I have been experiencing… one of which is why I missed my appointment the week before, and she wanted to focus just on why I withdraw, what it looks like etc etc. I also had the opportunity to bring up how frustrated I feel about not being allowed to write stuff down… and she said who said I wasn’t allowed? Given that I started the appointment with trying to give her something I had written and she said no!! 🤬🤬

so yep. I’m still not doing ok. 

yeah I guess a bit of a transition now that mum is home. And yes, my brother came back with her. He got the all ok to come up here by his oncologist. Just for 2 weeks. Then mum will go with him back to Melbourne to make sure he gets on the boat ok. 

I mean it’s good that he is here. Haven’t seen him for a couple of years. But there is trauma history there that I haven’t really spoken to anyone about. So it is hard. It’s triggering.
