    Sure. Normal people. Not people like myself and others like me.

    All healthcare is like this for us.

      I do get it. I was taken to emergency by ambulance once , just in a terrible crippling pain, there was a nurse who I could tell actively hated me and thought I was faking. I had pink hair and an old detroit tshirt. The doctor brought in neurosurgeons and I was diagnosed with severe sciatica. Nurse was still angry and basically dumped me on the street when the specialists were done. I had to hail a cab myself.

      obviously thought i was a junky . what a bitch

        Yep. Being followed around shops because you have weird hair and piercings is one thing, poor healthcare because of incorrect assumptions is a whole different matter.

        The ones who try to belittle me, are the ones I make sure understand where exactly they sit in societies bullshit superficial capitalistic ladder.

        Nurses and pharmacists. It’s always those 2.

          Am Nurse, can confirm that some nurses have forgotten that they are not superior beings.
