So.
I’m pretty sure people don’t really follow me here but I think it’s safe to say I’m moving on to where the skies are a little bluer.
Would love to stay in touch.
I’m the same over there.

@samaritans I use the web chat. (I’m a bit too scared to call and take up someone else’s time - it feels different on the web chat).
So thank you for investing in that. Your people have been kind.
@Rebecca99LT Is their vision a problem or like my father who was effectively blind (feeling around to get around) before he agreed to go to a doctor. Just another potential reason for reticience.
@doc_bipolar Oh how I wish I’d known there were others. That it wasn’t just me as everyone around me implied. From F1s to my educational supervisor.
I felt and still feel so very useless. I hate that I failed.
The cognitive dissonance of listening to these words. Oh how I wish I were still a doctor. I truly still want to help others. I yearn to make life different for others. Yet I absolutely do not have this strength and so I guess I’m also very lucky not to have seen so much death.
Thank you @samaritans for your continued investment in your web chat.
And thank you wine and tequila for letting me talk to said Samaritans online because you’ll always be far too scared to call.
No. Not drunk at all.
I am tipsy.
I am sad.
I really wish I could get better. I just wish I was better for myself. For my husband. For my cats.
I always feel like I’m screaming into the void.
I just want to cry. I can’t make it happen.
I feel so alone.
