1/🧵As a psychotherapist on the 🦠 conscious register, I’m grateful to the author of this piece.🙏🏾 SO MANY struggling privately w/these issues. I’d like to unpack a few areas that jumped out at me. ‘Wrestling with my husband's fear of getting COVID again’ npr.org/2024/03/11/123… 2 of 14 /‘All this leaves me feeling torn between two emotions. I want to keep my husband safe and healthy. But I also want our old life back.’

My response: A fundamental challenge in our culture, is the inability to grieve…

🧵Promised to share a bit more about what I did to keep safer at a surgical consult recently🙏🏾Forgive me for not doing Q&A-I did consider a Space on this theme-seeing as the #gaslighting dereliction of duty in healthcare is now often OUTRAGEOUS but it’s still v.personal So-1of8⬇️ 2)This may or may not work but: Share your Covid conscious/IC status w/facility @ appt making stage. Choose wisely-select 1 excellent article or compelling research to email them, to make your point. Go to the ‘organ grinder’😂where possible. Goes w/out saying-be courteous & kind

#CovidConscious ❤️tips🧵1/On🤞🏾 surviving a long dental appointment.🦷 Quick ‘Kia Ora!’ Initially-no extraneous pleasantries (you can stay gracious AND allow 0 time for potential prevarication).
Walk in (obv masked) plug in HEPA-*IGNORE* huffing & puffing (switch on MAX settings) 2/ Offer N95s to the dentist & nurse(s).
EXPECT- as I received: “Oh (*Implicit tone - Texan style: BLESS YOUR HEART!*) we don’t do that anymore! But okay, we have some, nurse will just go get them.” Internal voice: Damn right you will, mfs.

🧵 To the few of us remaining who are still ‘alive’ to the UTTERLY traumatic, dystopian landscape we now dwell in. I’d like to say this to you my love, as a psychotherapist who specialises in treating trauma (amongst other areas). You cannot ‘do it all at once’🙏🏾❤️ Pace yourself. 🧵2 / You cannot fight all the time. You need breaks. This IS our new reality (I’m NOT saying we just roll over). The gaslighting, bullsh*ttery, LIES upon LIES. ‘Everything is fine’. THIS is the ‘new normal’. Tragically, we will see some of our loved ones pass too soon…
