>>Yeah, that last bit is really hard. Lack of accurate information can be fatal. I think people don't realize how crucial knowledge is. One of the things I deal with least well is problems caused by other people's ignorance or indifference in the face of knowledge that I have.<<
I think the incidents that stick worst in my mind are the ones that involve egregious cases of that. 20:20 hindsight compounds things of course, but some things were just inexcusable once we'd found all the pieces - or as many as were left and put them together to find out what had *really* happened - and that kind of detail coupled with a mind used to meditations/trances and fabricating worlds for writing?
On the slightly brighter side of things, later this year I should be attending a chronic pain programme specifically geared for people with PTSD, despite technically not fufilling the diagnostic criteria on the UK psych manuals, as my secondary care professionals agree its the best course of treatment for me they can offer.
