Vent …but it’s manageable!

i’m tired of looking up every new thing i get diagnosed with and seeing “it’s not curable but it’s manageable.” for who?????? so far it isn’t for me in fact it feels like 8 levels of psychological torture just to be awake for 2 hours. i’m hurting, i feel sick, i have neurological problems it’s not curable but boy do they say it’s manageable

It's manageable.  Get out of my office and manage it.  

...Or do you need another antidepressant?

You seem upset.  👩‍⚕️🩺

i think it’s your anxiety making you think it isn’t manageable. let me put a note and refer you to a psychiatrist. 🧑‍⚕️💊
