They did both - that went toward groceries AND it gave me hope! <3 Thank you.
I'm sorry that we have so much terrible stuff in common, though. Our health system REALLY needs improvement. And doctors who listen, and who are given time to listen, and if all their patients are getting blown off instead of helped, we should get to leave them shitty reviews which cost them patients somehow. Currently, people go to whatever doctor happens to accept their insurance, and there is no recourse if they suck ass but didn't break the law to lose their license. If people were free to go to whatever doctor they wanted - there might be some repercussions for being a condescending asshole. ;)

I Get By With A Little Help From My Friends
Awesome! Next month...I will see what I can do to help you out with something towards cat food...or protein powder...or more ice cream! I was on a liquid meal replacement diet for over six months and the fear of not having enough to get through the month was terrible. We truly live in a broken world when doctors aren't trained to be compassionate and to actually help people...and usually do more harm than good. They are brainwashed and driven by greed and an overinflated sense of self worth. I believe in doing what we can to find our own answers and treatment plans...but even this comes with endless obstacles. We can try...but there is still so much we cannot do for ourselves. There are always the small glimmers of hope towards building a better world...I just hope we get to see more of these results sooner rather than later! I am always a message away to talk when you feel down...or rant when you feel like doing that!

<3 Thank you for your support. Sometimes it really does help just to get it off our chests and vent with someone who understands.
If you haven't read the book Mind Over Medicine, I recommend it. The dr who wrote it was a traditional doctor, got burned out by the system, and became a more holistic doctor in a group-effort group practice. She talks about how fucked up our system is, as well as the placebo/nocebo effect. I kinda wish more doctors would read her book.
Lissa Rankin. It took me a minute to remember her last name, but that's the author.

Thank you for the book recommendation! I hope it will be available in audiobook format somewhere because these days...that seems to be the only way that I can focus long enough to absorb the contents of a book...lol. I enjoy multitasking and listening with something easy to process like a coloring page or bead work.

Oh, I understand! That was me for a while, but my current phase seems to make that harder for some reason. That used to be the only way I got any dishes done or took a walk to the store, was if I had an audiobook on headphones to focus on.
I did look, and amazon says it's available on audible, but I don't know about your local library or anything like that. Here's the website: http://mindovermedicinebook.com/
