Yup got refused medical care yesterday... for not wearing a mask.
The receptionist said "It's the law". I replied No, it just a mandate. She agreed Yes it's a just mandate.
But they watch us and we get dinged for allowing unmasked people in. The CDC requires it.
I said, the CDC itself stated that masks don't work. It even says the same thing right on the box.
She was pleading with me ... but you have yo wear one to get treated anywhere...
I said look I'm not fighting with you, I see your in a hard position. I'm simply saying I'm not wearing one, so I'm leaving - I don't to get anyone in trouble.
She was short circuiting a bit... I got the impression no one ever politely refused her polite mask request before. And she was stunned I was leaving.
The fully masked man sitting in the waiting area nodded to me as I said gently to him Things will change, they have to - we are not meant to live this way God wins.
By the time I reached the door to leave I was flooded with adrenaline, I could feel it start in my knees & stomach - there was zero conflict and no aggression whatsoever. I was sick to my stomach and had to fight back freakin TEARS.
I wasn't sick... I didn't NEED anything, but they requested I was seen ... he moved, started a new practice yadda yadda... so I went to just see if he was retarded.... hadn't seen him in for since before covid. I was disappointed to learn he was a compliant sheep, but knew it was possible.
I don't understand my powerful reaction to - the situation didn't call for any of that.
On some level, your instincts told you this was part of your fight for life. Everything that threatens your safety is predatory and the adrenaline response is primal. Yours is working well.
Maybe your reaction is from the injustice and unfairness and anger at all this because you can see that people don't want to comply but feel like they have no other option.
Yeah maybe. I dunno.... I keep thinking about that whole situation, Looking back, I think because we (the receptionist and the other patient) had been been making small talk and laughing about all of our recent struggles with quitting smoking, the relapses and stuff.
Maybe because we connected in some small way. I didn't see them as just the usual random asshole we have tons of here in NY trying to force me to bend to their will and enjoying denying me service.
Everyone has their own struggles and we are are all at different stages of trying to understand WTF is going on... not just some anonymous masked sheep and an angry Karen. Lol
We are all in this together, I'm praying for them (all of us)
Doubt you are turning into a faggot..that said I think you handled the situation with compassion and integrity. I'd like to think I would have reacted similarly in your shoes. Depending on how asleep people were determines how fast they awaken. We have been awake for some time now. You can't fast track other people. Keep praying, they are waking up. Thing is, we have had years to process all this evil that surrounds us. They won't have that and that is why we are really here, it is to help them, Cognitive Dissonance is a bitch. I think we've all been there and had the time we needed to recover and accept. they won't have that.

Maybe... it just was so weird... so I guess I have no Primary dr anymore. Lol.
Glad my dentist is based.... he probably knows more about medical stuff anyways.

The stress we live in everyday definitely takes it toll, even if we think we are somehow used to it.
