I go for treatment every week at a cancer center infusion clinic. A nurse arranged for myself and three other patients to sit in the same area. She knew we would start talking to one another as we were there for at least 3-4 hours. We all have similar diseases. And we all became great friends. One was my age and her name was Jackie. She became my best friend. After 3 years, I at her bedside when Jackie took her last breath and have become part of her family. My other friend, Dan, passed away and his widow is like a mom to me. I treasure these relationships and the nurse that helped to facilitate them ❤️
As a woman who was literally told that my chronic pain was just because I'm "emotional", I don't find this cute. Women's health issues are too often disregarded by the medical community. Just get her a man, and that'll fix her right up!
I don't find it at all amusing, either. I almost died from a rare immune disease because many doctors (especially when I was younger and could push through being sick) assumed or suggested I was imagining it. My brother, who is a twin, has the same illness. He had constant care, constant medicines and support to keep working, always taken seriously. I was told having severe heart arrythmia was "panic attacks" I have helped a lot of persons who I met find out and research what was wrong with them after yes..meeting them at doctor's offices and us bonding over how much we were being dismissed and minimized. I have never met someone who was faking, or "lonely" or a drama queen. Yes, chonic illness is isolating and yes you get lonely. Because you're being shunned by the people who ought to help you. I'd like to kick the OP's butt

Note for foreigners: the last line refers to the late Cilla Black, (dreadful) singer and TV presenter, who hosted Blind Date.
Ah, I was looking that name up to figure out the reference.

I am now on year three of dealing with a severe health problem that (according to doctors) is all in my mind. I finally tried a pulmonologist, who found that I am constantly in a state of hypoxia. My blood oxygen hovers around 75 %, which qualifies as a medical emergency. If the other doctors hadn't blown off my low scores on oximeters, I would have had supplemental oxygen years ago. I'm sorry, but too many physicians disregard health problems in their female patients. This guy needs to take a reality check.
Yeah. Even if you are diagnosed they still dont believe you. I got my disabilities status rejected despite having endometriosis and cfs and severe mobility issues because my GP doesnt believe in CFS so she said in her report that i dont have any issue walking. I need a scooter to f*****g walk!

I'm sure glad you aren't MY doctor! For a medical professional to state that their patients' health problems are all hypochondria is beyond the pale. What happens if you don't take my health complaints seriously, and I have a very, very serious illness? Are you going to feel at all bad about it? You've forgotten your oath, "doctor" - first, do no harm.
If this is true, this person needs their license to practice revoked. I'm an MD, you don't do this. you don't assume they're lonely, and if that is a possibility, you arrange for them to have information on how to integrate into a social group, e.g., volunteering, support groups for the lonely, etc. --- an MD
Also, they never said that they just "assume" their patients are lonely, without examining them first. If anything, it seems like this person is only "matching" the patients whom they know well (they says "people who I think will get on" so they likely knows the patients fairly well), so possibly long-time patients

Can you imagine going to the doctor, having them think you're faking what's wrong with you and that all you need is a romantic partner? And don't forget they're also leaving these patients intentionally waiting in their waiting room. Wow. As someone with an invisible disability, this is my nightmare doctor. I wonder how many serious conditions they've missed because they had a 'lonely patient' they wanted to set them up with.
This is horrible!!! How can anyone think this is an ok thing for a doctor to do?
You're the reason it took me a decade to get my endo diagnosed. Fark off.
typical doctor mentality it's all in there head you are TAH. im happy im not your patient.
So 6 couples formed in 20 years. If the basis of a relationship is complaining about how this doctor sucks for making you wait, how many are still couples, still your patients? Even if you only did this once a year a 70% failure rate isn't something you should flex over.
OP is probabaly telling the truth but as someone who had to see 3 doctors before and was told the pain was in my mind when I mentioned I had anxiety and was sure I had scoliosis (which I have now been x rayed and diagnosed with) this rubs me the wrong way a little lol.
Now I know why I am treated like a Moron whose ailments are all in my mind.
It’s a bit alarming to hear that ‘a lot of patient’s ailments are in the mind.’ Every single person that I know has genuine health issues. Minimizing is the reason that often health conditions go untreated, eg. ‘It’s all in your head,’ for: gallstones, migraines, fibromyalgia, cancer, IBS, Lupus, kidney stones, anorexia, asthma, congestive heart failure, MS.’
Correction: Meant to say every person I know with a serious health condition.

So having a date cures cancer, heart disease, asthma, scoliosis, muscular dystrophy, chicken pox, migraines, anorexia? What? Which diseases are imaginary?
weird as this was just on the radio this am as the "masked speaker" and she called herself doctor Rebekkah.
I really like this. Being in support I can also tell when someone is just lonely and wants to talk. I wish I could introduce some of these to each other. (That being said, some of the people I get, I pray never meet each other to team up on people working in support or the service industry.)
Omg dats so cute, an amazing doctor that not only cares about ur health but also cares about ppl being lonely 😍 do you send them off on all expensive hol 2 DR.Cilla
It’s not so much a sin in as much as you are the Secret Santa of relationships. You are a blessing.
The account that now has almost 630K followers and even published a book, The Very Best of Fesshole: Britain confesses anonymously, shares confessions that range from funny and even embarrassing ones to those that might be considered more serious ones. A lot of those who decided to share their confessions talk about small and perhaps embarrassing things that they don’t want others to know about, such as hiding food from other family members, not wanting to go out, staying at home instead, stealing some trifle, etc. Some also reveal “heavier” things such as wanting to move out of their country or cheating on their spouse.
I get really annoyed when a guy says to someone that the wife won't let him do it, when it's HIS choice. This can lead the 'friends' thinking less of the wife (she's soooo controlling) rather than less of the manly man who can't bear to take his own responsibility.
Is it okay to keep secrets and what does that do to our mental health? A lot of people like to keep things to themselves as they are afraid that once someone they care about finds things out, they might react badly, change their mind about the person, or break off the relationship. However, according to Dr. Alison Block, a psychologist and the Director of the Health Psychology Center, keeping a secret can make you feel even worse than actually admitting things as they are.
How can you help yourself in this case? Most of us are familiar with the feeling of having something weighing us down, but once we talk about it, it feels as if that weight has been lifted off our shoulders. The specialist stated that the best way is to think about our secret: why don’t we want to talk about it? Once we know our whats and whys, it’s important to think of ways we want to present the information to the person in question. Dr. Block revealed some useful tips to prepare yourself for it better, which include: writing down the confession or saying it to yourself, this way making yourself feel a bit better, choosing a place where you want to share your secret, having an explanation for why you decided to keep certain things a secret, etc.
Do you have some tips and tricks of your own? Don’t forget to leave them in the comments section down below!
I'm glad the poor kitty stayed, I can't help imagining the wife throwing him out every night in the beginning though 😟
Love this. Been in IT for over 15 years and started without any experience and have done pretty well for myself. But I had extremely good teachers, mentors, and supporters (including my family from a personal level for all of those late nights and screwed up holidays). All of that said, if you called me right now for support I'd still tell you to reboot
One does not simply mix milk from two different cows. Come on people.
What if that was the funniest cr*p you would have seen all your life, tho.

I love how overly critical and judgy the comments are in this thread. The account was created SPECIFICALLY to get embarrassing things off your chest. Or things you're not supposed to be gloating about, but yet you do. These people KNOW there is something off or even plain wrong about what they just shared, or they wouldn't share on a page like this. I really enjoyed the posts in this thread, but hated the comments. This is seriously one of those threads that would benefit from a function to block the posting of comments under each contribution. I really don't think these posts were meant for us to take it and run with it.
+100 to this! I was thinking “did people forget the purpose of the twitter account/this post?”

Here's my confession: If an anti-vax Covid denier falls ill, I smile and say, "Oh, that's sad, would you like to sign up for this long Covid research project?" I used to try to help them. Now? They have destroyed millions of lives. So, yeah, here, try this weird combo of vitamins and prescriptions ----- you don't believe in vaccinations against Covid, but you'll take this cocktail of doom, sure, whatever, here's the paperwork, sign there, have fun if you get the placebo. And then I drink a cup of hot chocolate and wonder if I'm as big a b***h as Karma is, or if I'm just Karma's little helper, or if I'm going to hell. But after two years of those a--holes, I'm sticking to the first rule of medicine. I'll do no harm. That's all. F**k 'em. No, I'm not angry and bitter, why do you ask?/s/
Here's my confession. For seven years, I've been hiding the fact that my best friend is being abused and taken advantage of by her boyfriend. I've been hiding it because I know her boyfriend has a gun, and I know that he knows where I live, and I know that he keeps it loaded and cocked at all times, and I don't want to take even the slightest risk of her dying and possibly me dying as well.

Joke's on you #24: the queen was known for wearing brightly colored clothes.
I use to drive at least once a week through x highway. There is a 2 mile spot with a lot of motels (not the family type, but those for couples, outlying rates). Every time i drive by this part of the road, I honk and wave anybody who is entering or leaving , so they s**t their pants by thinking someone caught them cheating. If I’m not having sex, no one is! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
