Such things become all consuming - there is no time to eat, or do anything else, while trying to remember/time things - and things get missed, days get horribly distorted. It is not a nice way to live.

This'd be the same 'medical staff' that post on reddit and other places openly giving their real opinions as to patients and medical conditions, which are often at best dismissive and at variance with our reality? These same people, who apparently despise us, should decide if we live or die...

Psychiatry has sod all to do with medicine, in the same way as whale songs have sod all to do with accountancy. So my answer would be 'No'.

But.....this cannot be......we had a world beating approach to covid...we were told......by a 'man'. Better than anywhere else, faster than anywhere else, just better, in every way. As implemented, as instructed by our leaders, by the best health service in the world, envied by the whole...

Which end of the barrel is he claiming to have looked down tho. Barrels go 2 ways.

My onset was in 1987. My diagnosis was in 2003. In the late 80s/early 90s I was seeing doctors/consultants/neurologists/psychologists/psychiatrists, and attending hospital clinics, in the vain hope of finding out what was wrong with me. The closest I got a being offered 'treatment' was a...

It seems my DNA is not worthy. I, could have told them that, without a questionnaire :p (I'm assuming that my comorbidities disqualified me).

Fairly sure i had one (letter) only a month or 2 back, and I'm also fairly sure that it wasn't the first this year. Emails seem to come in flurries from chancellor yada yada, and from another berkeley related source as well (separate from this fundraising thing), I will however, now, start...

Well.....my response was 'WTF is natto' - I'm 56 (I think) and I've never heard of it. I did gather that at least one person considers it might be a type of food ;) It turns out that the reason I've never heard of it, when I have heard of many, many, types of food, is because I'm from the NE...

So...an 'Accident and Emergency' department has told people involved in accidents, or who have a medical emergency, not to go there? That only people who are severely ill should go. I wonder, does having, say, a car accident, that results something unimportant, like a person's left leg, being...

I didn't like to block them, or may have been more selective, as otherwise, how would I know I was supposed to donate ;)

Yes. I suspect it's at least twice a year that a very high quality paper/card thing turns up here - once a few months before fundraising, and then again a few months after (but I could be wrong, I'm not really paying any attention to the fundraising cycles of a place thousands of miles away...

Yeah, mine were nightmares as well. Guess I'm differently normal ;)

But the weird dreams are the best part - not worth getting a booster without them ;) (Keto gave me similar dreams, for a while)

Giving me pause re my getting a second booster. Got an email invite a couple of days ago. The speed things are progressing here I can't afford any significant downtime, on top of the 7-10 days that seems to occur every time I have the audacity to do something.

It doesn't make sense until it's appreciated that the biggest danger to public health is the sheer number of people, people going around doing things, producing things, consuming things, people simply existing. We have somehow managed to produce a system where a heavily armed psychopath living...

Should have taken a diesel powered generator and a few negative ion generators with you :rofl:

I tried it about a decade or so ago, self referring. Took them a very long time to visit, around 18 months or so, and all that was on offer was a panic button, a few rails, and the 'gateway care' of someone to give me a shower (which would be a nice trick as I don't have one). If not prepared...

They probably all ate the wrong egg(s).

It's probably cheaper than doing even the bare minimum to temporarily improve even 5 minutes of someone's day. Quiet place, tea, cake - 10 minutes. Obviously, for overworked staff, in an under resourced system, it's just so much cheaper and easier to just send them a link in an email saying to...
