Great T-shirt, my love

Great T-shirt, my love
4/4
I’m just telling you this, because it’s incredibly hard not to be frustrated. Civilians who haven’t had experience I have won’t know what to do, will give up. You just have to keep trying. You just have to keep listening. You just have to keep loving.
Nothing changes until they change it.

She says, I’m exhausted. I tell her if he smashes this phone, we can’t replace it again. She’s just bought a new laptop. He will likely smash that too. If he does that, she says, it’s over. She’s not ready.

My strong advice is to call police for breach of PSO that’s already in place. I don’t think she will. We’ve had the same conversation 1000 times. And I know we likely will have it 1000 more. Until she’s ready, nothing changes.

This was just a general GP and emergency clinic, not hers, but I know she has a good relationship with her one. I just get sensed by the lack of knowledge around trauma considering how many people carry it around.

4/4 so if you’re a Dr, pls do not attempt to pacify with talk of mindfulness and walks. Ppl with severe anxiety, whether through trauma or not, require more than glib surface solutions.
In this case, trauma is carried in the body. And pushing through isn’t helpful.

3/4 She will see her own GP tomorrow. And finally discuss medication that can at least make her functional again. Take the edge off.
She has “chill pills” in the meantime.
And is relieved bc now she knows that all her trigger managing strategies can’t touch the anxiety right now.

As we wait, I hold her tight. Stroke her hair. She rests her head on my bosom.
They do testing.
It’s “just anxiety”.
The DR does what most drs do.
Suggests mindfulness breathing + walks on the beach.
I respectfully tell her what’s what.
That CPTSD is not long term improved by such things.

What you are here to do.
Very few of them have the courage. I believe politicians like Arena do.

2/3 I have consulted with a number of MPs over the yrs - mostly Greens and Lab.
How can we help? they always ask. What needs to change?
And my answer is always the same.
Have the courage to do what you need to do, for the people who are most in need of you to do that.

She’s so happy, but she kept saying I’ve got so much work to do. It’s so dirty. It was not dirty. She’s just got VERY HIGH standards. 🤣
