It's important to find a healthcare provider who truly listens and validates your feelings!!!! Have you considered consulting with a therapist specializing in anxiety and depression???? As the saying goes, “The right help can make all the difference!!!” Never underestimate the importance of self-advocacy!!! I found relief by keeping a mood journal to help articulate my experience to professionals!!! Hang in there and remember, you are not alone on this journey!!!!

it might be worth considering that healthcare pros are also human, ya know? everyone misses stuff sometimes, but it's not always intentional or careless; maybe it’s all about finding the right fit... keep in mind that communication is a two-way street??? try being super clear and direct about what you need!!! ever tried writing down what you wanna say before appointments? it helps!!! either way, hang in there and don’t lose hope 🙂

maybe the doctors and nurses are trying their best too? sometimes we gotta work with them to find what we need. it's like they say, "Rome wasn't built in a day." finding the right help can take time!!! ever thought about trying different approaches or even getting a second opinion? stay strong, things can get better with a little patience 😊

i completely understand your experience, and I totally agree with what you're saying. it's so frustrating when you're trying to communicate your needs, and it feels like nobody's fully getting it. mental health is super important, and getting the right support can make a huge difference in one's life if the professionals aren't helping, maybe it's time to explore other avenues; perhaps reaching out to support groups or online communities might offer the understanding and assistance you need. keep your head up, and know that you're not alone in this struggle. things can get better with time and persistence, and there's always hope waiting around the corner.
