It feels important to type this out as perhaps I am in denial of it... I know I fight it hard (I endeavour to be self reliant and can be assertive and stubborn where necessary)... Is odd how others perceive you though which you yourself cannot see.
Hey TJ, I really hope it goes well for you today, I really do. I know what you mean about people having a different perception than you do about yourself. I was like " Are they really talking about a different person, other than me", but what you have to remember to that hospital can be triggering in so many ways, you dont have the comforts that you do at home, you can't of course, but that to me was the worst thing of all. Being in a place that was alien to me..as it is to everyone of course. Keep in touch.
Best wishes.
