My thoughts on a (c)ptsd magazine I read in the waiting room.

Vent / Rant

I went to the doctor's. A magazine in the waiting room caught my eye. An edition on trauma and (c)ptsd. It is absolutely baffling how little the so called experts actual understand about this. I read interviews and qoutes and ways of thinking on how to treat patients. So totally devoid of kindness and empathy. These people have accumulated knowledge about the pool, studied the chemical bond of H20, tried to treat swimmers who were drowning and yet they dont know jack fucking shit cause they've never even been in the water. How pretentious to think they know because they have a certificate on the wall. It's insulting to all of us who've been forced to dive into the deep end.
End of rant.
