Special Appeciation (Doctors)

[N-cole]

I just called my GP and expressed my gratitude for how she treated me when I came in to see her, about a month and a half ago. And we had no prior relationship, I just went to her practice because it is near my house. But now she will be my GP going forward. I am just so filled with gratitude, I couldn't keep it to myself. I was such a mess physically and emotionally. I was not functioning, I couldn't sleep as well. For the past 2 days I have slept for 12 straight hours and woke up feeling so refreshed. When I cried in her office she didn't judge, she was so nice and comforted me. She was so on point in diagnosing my physical symptoms and prescribed the right meds and actions to address those. She also encouraged me to go through psychotherapy. I was hesitant at first but I agreed. These ladies, my GP, my Therapist have been such a gift to me, I really appreciate their work as Specialists in their fields. I know they are doing their jobs, still, they are touching our lives in special ways.

Thanks for sharing N-Cole, I’ve been having the same sleep problems too! It’s nice to know there’s a solution out there for people who are feeling a bit lost and hopeless

Hey. Thanks. The sleep problem is usually a symptom or result of something bigger that's wrong. When addressed at the symptom level it's not effective. For example I could take sleeping pills, but they would have no effect whatsoever due to my excessive stress, my thoughts kept me awake, my pain kept me awake . I couldn't fall asleep, if I did, I couldn't maintain it for long. Then because you not getting enough sleep other things start going wrong. But if the root issue is addressed, it takes time but it's 100% effective. Even the ability to feel hunger I had lost it, I was such a mess. But again, past 2 days, I have felt excessive hunger and savoured everything I ate.
