    He said what? I'd be complaining, f*it, I'll complain on your behalf!

    Sweetheart he was completely out of order. He has no business being around anyone - mental health illness or not! I'm furious that he thought it was OK to talk to you like that - it definitely wasn't.
    He could easily have set you back years with comments like that. I'm so angry!

    I think he would say he is a straight talker, maybe a tough love type, I dont know.
    Doesnt work for me anyway.
    I know I can be quite sensitive so maybe I took his tone wrong or something, or misinterpreted what he was trying to get across.

    Anyway, I am trying to move on and focus on any positive I can.
    I'll talk it through with my psychologist next session.

    That is absolutely disgusting. I really don’t know what to say, I am so mad! It sounds like he was telling you off when he should be telling you well done for how far you’ve come on over the last couple of years.
    You definitely need to talk it through with your psychologist.

    Straight talker? Nope, don't make excuses for him. He's a knob.
    Definitely not oversensitive - when you were nursing would you EVER talk to someone like he did you? Nope, didn't think so.... Have you told A what was said?

    It’s literally his job to talk to each patient in a way that DOES NOT trigger them, but helps them! That was disgusting!

    Hunni, I hope you’re ok - though I’m super proud of how you’ve managed this….
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    Tbh I was really down this morning but I'm picking up a bit.
    I told A the factual information from the appointment without the actual conversation. I'm always worried that my sensitivity makes me take things the wrong way.
    A knows I'm a bit disappointed from the appointment and that it really upsets me when my PD is used as a reason for my issues. I know that that's irrational as it does contribute but I struggle with it.

    Have you noticed that you have immediately made this YOUR fault for the way that you have reacted. That's bollocks and not at all self compassionate (although I understand because I do the same too). This is about HIM not being able to communicate effectively or with any empathy, pretty key skills in his profession. Please do complain love, even if you can't do it for you, do it to potentially save the life of another patient. Also tell A. It's important. You are NOT "sensitive" about this at all. I promise.

    I'm sorry, I do do that dont I . I think we both know where the 'It's my fault' comes from.
