@Catcakes I love that you are watching me on TV. I THOUGHT I saw a cameraman following me as I was swimming around the other day, but I wasn't sure if I was just being paranoid. Smiley LOL

@OhanaSystem Ooooh I would super love to see your turtle picture if you want to share it. Smiley Very Happy

The MH nurse you see sounds awesome @OhanaSystem. I often find that people who know very little, and KNOW that they know very little, are some of the most helpful helping people. My GP is like that. When I first arrived in Forum Land a year ago, I used to call her my baby GP. However, she has now been a GP for two years so I guess that makes her more a toddler GP. Smiley Very Happy

When I started seeing her, she hadn't even finished her final placement to become a fully-fledged GP and she knows almost nothing about mental health. Yet she is the best GP I have ever met. No other GP has shown the remotest interest in my MH issues. During the past two years up until I connected with TTT, my GP was very much keeping me alive and I was seeing her weekly for most of that time. She is so open to learning, and genuinely believes that I am the expert on my own life. We seem to have no communication issues and she is just shaking her head at the current muddle I'm in with some people who self-identify as mental health professionals. So yep, I have no problem at all with health professionals who don't know stuff...so long as they KNOW they don't know and are open to learning. Smiley Happy

@SleepyPanda it is super nice to see you here in Forum Land this afternoon. Smiley Happy
