Thank you! As time goes, it happens less and less frequently. :)

I’m a Wayland lover, in spite of Wayland Firefox frequently freezing for me. Looking forward to it working better.

I suppose it depends on the country, although I’d assume so. I’m from a very poor background, but both of my parents became landlords through being from a generation where purchasing housing was still plausible. I suspect they will outlive me with the stress of my life combined with inborn conditions wrecking my body anyway. I hate my debt so much. :(

I wouldn’t celebrate myself, but I wouldn’t mourn either. The only thing having me in contact with my family is my debt and for them the social expectations and I guess having someone to verbally abuse comes in handy as well.

I have no positive emotional ties with my family.

Because I cannot cut ties due to the debt.

As someone who doesn’t live in a country where I hold citizenship, I think voting when you’re not affected as people who live there are is unfair to them. As is people living there being unable to vote unless they got citizenship which may be very difficult depending on the country.

Even if your suffering is rare and they didn’t know how to help you, the least they could do was acknowledging your pain and offering mental comfort instead of dismissing it. Thank you for speaking up about it. Hopefully this can stay at the back of people’s heads so if they encounter someone with your problem, they may seek solutions or at least comfort the person.

I don’t get why it’s so common. Early treatment is always easier andand yields better results, not to mention patient’s suffering is much, much less.

Happy that you got the problem sorted out eventually! Livid the doctor denied you the help you needed. :(

Ah, pardon me, thank you for clarifying! I moved to Germany not that long ago and was advised to amend my insurance to opt out from homeopathy and I did so before seeing any doctors. ^ ^’

I’m so sick of it being taboo to even say so.

YESSSS! And the worst is, they trust one another so the longer you suffer from an issue, the less seriously they treat it. I had a therapist who got diagnosed in her 30s with a life-long disease she always sought help for. She ended up movement impaired due to it proceeding with no treatment. Doctors called her a drug-seeker, school-skipper and so on. All she needed was to be treated seriously.

Really glad to had met you. It’s really reassuring to see people who understand, as much as I wish you wouldn’t understand as I’d prefer you would had never had experienced that.

I’m so sorry. Bless the person who saved your life. And bless doctors and nurses who treat patients well. A faking patient will show up on tests. A denied non-true patient may die or suffer life-long consequences. There is 0 reason to deny people medical care.

Holy fuck! I’m so sorry. :(((((

For people who don’t want to look up the profile themselves: The Netherlands (unless I’ve read wrong).

Edit: I was wrong. Look below!

I’m so sorry you went through it. I had a doctor accuse me of taking a medication I don’t have to change my blood test results. He still believes I lied. We are waiting on another test result. He suggested I should see another doctor. I don’t even smoke, don’t drink, don’t do drugs, how the fuck would I get a medication to mess with my blood results?

Glad someone finally figured out what’s the cause of your issue! <3

Holy fuck. Why are so many nurses so vile? I had nurses cover me in a pile of extremely warm blankets in a room heated to the highest temperature to a point where it felt like I was having a stroke and were ignoring me telling them how much the temperature hurt. Or nurses leaving in clearly wrongly put in venflons with 0 things scheduled for injections, leaving me in pain, unable to use an arm. I developed a severe phobia of venflons thanks to this. :/

All I can do is:

hug

I’m so sorry. :(

I’m so sorry you went through that. Fuck these doctors. :(

It’s fucked up and people who do it should lose the ability to work with medical patients and other vulnerable people for life. :/
