My thoughts these days go to the medical professionals who, despite the pressures and stress they’re facing, are putting in the effort and time to understand our struggles, take them seriously, and try to help to the best of their ability, sometimes even beyond. All medical professionals should be like this; I’m glad there’s at least some who are.

As always, we ask that in order to participate in the weekly megathread, one self-identifies as some form of disabled, which is broadly defined in the community sidebar:

“Disability” is an umbrella term which encompasses physical disabilities, emotional/psychiatric disabilities, neurodivergence, intellectual/developmental disabilities, sensory disabilities, invisible disabilities, and more. You do not have to have an official diagnosis to consider yourself disabled.

Mask up, love one another, and stay alive for one more week.

    I’m finally back on my antidepressants and I feel a lot better. My doctor gave me advice on what to do in case I run out again, so hopefully I can avoid withdrawal in the future.

      Happy to hear you’re doing better! And while I hope you never run out of antidepressants again, I’m also glad to hear you got some advice from your doctor. Take care, sweetie meow-hug
