I'm going to the doctor tomorrow because SI burn wounds (inflicted last Tuesday) aren't healing well and I want advice on how to treat them. Would anyone care to pocket ride with me? I'm nervous. Doctor knows about my mental illness, but I don't think he knows I SI. And doctors in general scare me (due to trauma).
I don't know what time I see him - I'm calling tomorrow morning to make an appointment. |

Thanks, everyone.
Doctor went well! He was very kind and non-judging. I complimented him on being so calm and easy about it, and he said that he found it sad/bothersome (he used a word in my language that's less offensive than bothersome and less demeaning than sad - just an acceptable word that doesn't really have a good translation) to see, but that he didn't see the point of judging me or telling me not to do it, as I didn't do it for the fun of it and it wouldn't be helpful. He gave me a few tips on the wound care, bandaged it anew and I have to return on Friday to show him the wounds again. (He first said next week, but he's away next week - only has a doctor that's training to become family doctor covering him) He's a bit of an idiot sometimes (he's made a few mistakes in the past that caused me some major problems) but he means well. ![]() Thanks for pocket riding, you all. ![]() |
