    As someone who also takes responsibility for everyone else’s actions, I get how hard it is to shake that mindset.

    I feel for you love....people like that shouldn't be in charge of animals let alone people who are hurting and looking for advice and encouragement to work towards a better quality of life. Tbh, like the others, I would put in a complaint or if you can't bring yourself to do that tell your usual consultant when you see him again. I did it in Scotland when there was a locum. He had me in tears by the time I left. I made a complaint and it shocked the practice manager and other doctors. Never saw him there again. I wonder if he'd have spoken like that to one of his family members? Complaining doesn't come easy to sensitive beings like us because we tend to think that everything that goes wrong is our fault! Well I do anyway! You are a much loved, helpful and loving member of the DWD team and never forget that. There are a lot of doctors that forget the first line of the Hippocratic oath....First Do No Harm.

    So I have to be honest and say the last few days have found me floundering badly and feeling completely all over the place.
    I'm getting up, doing my stuff etc but I am emotionally unstable. The joys of trauma and being triggered!
    However I'm managing to function but there are tears for no reason, I feel blue and finding it harder to find my joy. I know it's there, its just being veiled by my trauma brain. Really taking it hour by hour here and celebrating the little things. Heading for swim now which will hopefully settle my agitation and anxiety.

    The positives being.... I know what is going on in my head, I know why and I also know that it will settle again with time and with me keeping doing the things that help and not giving up.

    I am SO proud of you for talking about how you are feeling. Sweetheart you are amazing, but hunni anyone would struggle with what you've been through with that dr. When do you next see your psychologist? Can you call and ask her to call you back and tell her about it?
    Do a little of something that makes you happy every day!

    Thanks Suzi. I have an appointment next Monday, I'll be fine til then.
    I guess for me it just highlights that when you are already having a lot going on, it can take very little to send you spiralling. I am so thankful for the techniques I've been taught to help me recognize this and cope through it. I've come a long way.

    I could have ‘words’ with him if it’ll help . Seriously, love, the fact that you’re working to dust yourself off after what he put you through is huge. You’re an inspiration!
    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.

    Well this inspiration is struggling to put her feet on the floor today.
    Lying in bed, have a lot I could be doing but I have a real sadness on me which I'm struggling to shift.
    Yesterday morning Facebook memories threw up the tribute I wrote for my mums funeral, as I was reading it and feeling a bit tearful Ed Sheeran's Supermarket Flowers came on the radio..... I was a mess.

    So today its happy music only, I need to sort out some crochet and I'm determined to force myself up the road for a swim. It's a half hour drive and some days it's the drive that I cant be bothered with.

    So this is my get up call, I'm going to get moving, put clothes on and get coffee and breakfast!!
    I'll read all your threads later.... if I start now I'll still be here and I need to move.
    SM MOVE.... NOW.... UP!!
