You’re not a nut job! There are so many of us here that experience the same things. I texted someone at 2 Am. They just sent me a message, why were you awake. My standard answer—insomnia. My brain won’t shut down.

I had heard so many bad stories about er’s and patients like me I was afraid. They were so kind. Don’t get me started I’m kind of emotional right now. Guess I’m just too tired.

I’ve been there several times for unrelated reasons and they have always been kind even when super busy. I guess we’re just lucky here. Just woke up from a short but much needed nap.

I'm glad that you did not have a negative ER experience. It doesn't help to be very anxious and have too deal with insensitive medical professionals. You're not alone 😁. I've made an ER visit or two myself. 🙂
