Like when I didn't improve, they'd tell me I was just neglecting my health rather than considering that there was something else wrong with me. In ten years, only one of them ever considered the impact it might have been having on my mental health, and did that mental health questionnaire thing to see if I could benefit from therapy. Before he suggested I might have depression, I never even considered it, so thank god he noticed something was off.
