I was amazed when we figured this out about movies. Movies is awful? You don’t have to stay and suffer. Just leave.
y'all are going to the doctor?
Phone calls too.
I have a friend who just won’t let you hang up. I’ve started just hanging up as soon as I say bye and not waiting for the other person on all my calls.
Personally, I just walked out of a Dr appointment because she wasn't talking me seriously. Looking her up on healthgrades.com (no connection to me, my insurance suggested using it when I was unhappy) found her reviews ateast the negative ones to be spot on...
This is how Elaine got blacklisted by all the doctors in New York
Walking out? I thought it was from trying to see her chart... ehhhh you are probably right. It's been awhile. Uncle Leo with the eyebrows and Kramer as a Dr. were hilarious tho.
I think the younger generations are much less likely to need this "advice" than previous generations, on balance.
I wish it was that issue. Specially while being autist or having ADHD and dealing with RSD or the after-issues.
Learning to deal with unpleasant people and situations is part of growing up. It's often better to grin and bear it, learn something for future you, then never go back.
OTHO, it's a valuable message. You don't always have to put up with the bullshit and should just bail.
So which is it? Well, figuring that out is an aspect of growing older and wiser.
On the hand other
Yeah you can be rude. They know this
Sigh
Erin with the tits is right
Erin St. Wits Ex United Airlines is her full name I think.
But remember most of all young adults: If you find yourself leaving often then the problem might be with you…
If you're seeing your 5th counselor and 7th psych because you don't want to make lifestyle changes and simultaneously want every stimulant to keep you up and downer so you can sleep... well... You're not fun to be their doctor for.
On the plus side at least the doctors are not willing to enable those who will not help themselves out too
While true and valid, also remember that your community can be a problem, or you might be suffering from systemic issues. Not all issues stem from individuals, and some are impossible to solve on the personal level. If you find yourself in the cult, for example, walking away is probably the best you could do, despite the scorn of the community.
That is true and equally worth pointing out too. I sometimes find it hard to distinguish between a heartfelt life lesson versus a platitude dressed in its Sunday best.
I quit a toxic job a few months ago. Scariest thing I've ever done. Best decision I ever made :)
It's easy to quit something toxic, but how do you quit something where all people are well-meaning and friendly and trying to help you, but you are autistic and they simply don't understand what that is? (And you also don't know you are autistic yourself yet)
That was my first uni where I dropped out at winter.
I feel you, I dropped out of community college twice before I learned enough about how my brain works to finally find a program I could complete. First quarter: 4.0, second quarter: 0.0. Both times :(
Wester Governors University, an online program, was perfect for me and my ADHD. I didn't finish quickly, or as cheaply as I had hoped, but I was able to finish.
Yeah, I'm still almost there, literally have only the final thesis left.
It's Russia and online programs here are generally not very good, and this attempt is night school. But maybe I'll do that before turning 29, ha-ha.
That's amazing, against the odds you're rocking it :) I'm rooting for you!
Right?! That shit IS scary. Crossing the fucking rubicon.
May I ask why? And if i might, why?
I quit without a plan. I just knew I was done and that was that.
The best you could do. Quit toxic things and/or people.
