My favourite part about this untitled Remus-therapy fic I'm writing (about 1/3 written now) is that I haven't planned what's coming up in the sessions themselves. I just have to sit there and imagine it's really happening.

I also think we made good progress in today's session and I'm proud of him.

Current state of mental health care in the UK: On the third and fourth of six (6) sessions I'm allowed of free counselling (that I've waited months to begin) my counsellor started trying to shove pseudoscience down my throat while calling it "science" (see: law of attraction, vagus nerve theory).

The kicker? My counsellor recommended me an American positive affirmation YouTube channel with the key selling point that the YouTuber "cured her own cancer with mindfulness". I mean, I was just too stunned to respond. Not like I've had family and friends die or receive terminal diagnoses of cancer over the last few years /s

There's only 2 sessions left but she seems adamant I have to listen to these YouTubers with a spiritual bent before she will introduce me to any other new resources.

I shouldn't complain because she has genuinely been helpful in other areas. It's just - I can't afford private mental health support and have to put up with things that make me uncomfortable to get a scrap of support.

Wondering what I should do in this situation. Wait it out or risk conflict by speaking my mind?

6 Feb 24 // Final counselling session (6 of 6) today

She had either forgotten I was coming, or she had lost track of the time, as she was definitely not expecting me when I knocked on the door. She tried to cover but I actually think she had forgotten. She went into another room to “just shut the door” and I could hear her shuffling papers like she was trying to find the stuff relevant to me. I don’t have a problem if she’d forgotten I was coming that day as I have rescheduled every appointment since the first one and none of them have been at the same time same day, so it’s not like it would be if T had forgotten about a session.

I am (finally!!) back in a good place and my counsellor could tell. She said I had a whole different energy about me today. It’s so good to feel back like myself after almost five months of miserableness. I don’t think counselling has been a magic wand, but she has walked alongside me and supported me as I’ve gone through this whole (lack of) process with work, and just knowing I have her on my side has been such an anchor and a comfort.

library day ˗ˏˋ 📖 ˎˊ˗

actually getting somewhere with this essay now! it’s making more sense, just one more paragraph, intro & conclusion to go :-)

[fiction-quotes]

I knew what he wanted to hear. He couldn't stand me being sick. Nobody can. They only want to hear that you're healing, you're in recovery, taking it one day at a time. If you're locked into sick, you should stop wasting their time and just get dead.
