@Bow yeah well done you! Hehe
I hope you get the opportunity. She may not even realise how unhelpful it is, could be saying it to other clients and such too.
Slow Sunday eh? Hard when we don't have much energy to really do much, but still needing to keep busy.
Maybe it's a Lego/crafternoon?

It’s amazing what mental health professionals think is ok to say to consumers eh @Jynx
very slow day. I’ve been crafting. Did some journaling pages and just put a heap of worry stones in the oven to bake. Watched a whole season of ‘the twelve’. Follows a murder trial and goes into the lives of the 12 jury folks. Just started season 3.
you been up to much today?

@Bow I know hey, and stigma creeps in everywhere. Sometimes it's ignorance or cruelty, but sometimes practitioners just don't know or don't realise that what they're saying is the opposite of helpful. It's not your responsibility to inform them, but if you get the chance it might be worth it. Then also I find it very telling how people respond to something like that - do they double down and try to defend their behaviour, or do they accept your feedback gracefully and try to make adjustments accordingly?
Oh hectic, sounds like a super intense character drama! I've been watching Ru Paul's Drag Race lol I feel like it couldn't BE more opposite!! Teehee

@Bow I love playing with UV hehe it's so fun to go round the house and see what glows! Which....admittedly can be gross. Avoid the bathroom 🤣
Hope you have a good sleep!! And dream of whimsical things, like rabbits in waistcoats and silly grinning kitties!! Teehee! 😋💜
