i know it's crazy to think that i'm only 22 and i've been in mentalhealth treatment for that long, i wishit was ajoke. it's been 10 years of being minimized, lied to, and just dealing with every struggle that seeking help can throw at you. today i saw my newnurse practitioner. i had been so scared because i was going to ask for help with my anxiety meds. she was the first person to ever genuinely assess my needs instead of talking to melike i was just "medseeking" (i hate that term). after going to place after place and being treated like it was my fault time after time, i finallyfelt like i was treated like a person. ik this is my first post on here, but this happened today and it's really important to me. my mental health is a huge part of my story and i saw this community and i wanted to share just in case maybe it gives someoneelse the hope to try for just one more doctor or treatment ❤️ i would appreciate more goodvibesifyou can reply on here

I'm glad you finally found someone who listened to you and actually wanted to help. I've alwayshated the doctors that just throw a different medication at you to see how you react to it.

I go through em! I know exactly what I need & advocate for myself. Most Drs are truly lacking & it's nothing personal. I'm happy to hear she can meet your needs. Def a victory! Welcome 🥰
