Hello ADayDream – thank you for your heart-felt post. I would like to respond with something useful but am too exhausted and it’s going to be a long night (again) to meet a deadline for tomorrow morning. So I am just saying ‘hi’ and letting you know I read your post.
I don’t explain myself to people now. But I am not young and having to make people listen anymore. It can be a battle but the trick is to have self belief and an understanding that we are who we are and we don’t have to explain or apologise to anyone for that. Sometimes it’s hard to hold that thought but we should.
I am impressed that you were speechless in front of that dreadful councillor – at that age and undiagnosed I would have probably told her exactly what I thought of her. Of course there would have been consequences but….! This forum is littered with tales of incompetent people in positions of (medical) authority.
Anyway….back to it.
