She legit triggered a panic attack just now with the effing mask/vaccine thing. I immediately started breathing heavy, face got red, heart racing/pounding.
While in the exam room that was 45 minutes away...to follow up on my awesome blood work because i lost almost 100 pounds since 4/2020. She had asked me to pull my mask up over my nose...even though she knows i hate it and have been suffering with anxiety.
I said, uh, no....took it off....threw on the ground....said it was disgusting and i dont want bacterial pneumonia. I also can tell that i need dental work....trying to lighten the mood.
I sat down and took deep breaths while my chest & chin were literally shaking as i held back crying, but tears still came down my face.
I very gently let her have it....she never learned about masks in med school...the longer we comply blah blah blah. She is still a zombie. When we were done, she said i still needed a mask to leave the building, said she wasn’t comfortable in the same room with me, then got up to get me a mask. Im all...wow, thats effed up.
Hey doc! Were you TRYING to make a grown woman cry? Oh, and i did have a traumatic weekend...that i had just shared with her. I did not go to that visit for anxiety...that shit is under control. I was there to talk to someone i trusted to keep me on track, see my “friend”, get my results, and talk about how else i can improve.
She is NOT my doctor anymore....after 20 years
That kind of energy will not help me heal...what a shame 🤷🏻♀️
For best medicinal effects buy fresh, bulk turmeric. Capsules sold on Amazon etc are usually weak at best. If mtn rose herbs has capsules, get with ginger and ground peppercorn (for absorption). Good sources:
