Recently I had some moderately intense encounters with medical staff, but I managed to be assertive and advocate for myself with some success. I even received actually good advice from some of them. I am feeling tired but cautiously optimistic. How about you all? Did anything go well for you recently? What was some stuff that let you feel some positive emotions?

That's so good to hear! Glad it went well in the end.

For me, I moved cities a while ago and was very anxious about losing my doctor. I had been her patient for the last near decade after a string of doctors who looked like they hated their job. Happy to say my new doctor is quite caring. I'm also seeing another doctor who can prescribe me a new medication which I'm having high hopes for and he is quite decent.
