I think life smiled at me today
I tried texting the guy I know and a company thing about hiring the caregiver I needed (I even texted the guy a whole day earlier) but I got no responses from both which is weird considering I already told them about the service I need weeks ago.
But then I did something even better which is explaining to a psychiatrist some people on FB recommended on an anonymous post in a group that I won't be able to visit his clinic because of stairs and asked him if we can meet outside and that's what happened. Both him and a woman therapist agreed to meet at cafes but he was available today and I took my chance.
We agreed to meet at this cafe I mentioned here before that I asked his manager to add a wheelchair ramp for me which he did. The ramp leads to this area with like 7 cafes and restaurants.
After I arrived there I ran into a food blogger very sweet dude, I was just standing near the ramp trying to call my dr and the guy came out of nowhere asking if I needed help getting on the ramp, he was super friendly I took a picture with him and we chatted for a bit and exchanged numbers. He put the pic on his stories on FB and Instagram.
Then a few minutes later after taking a look on all the cafes I suddenly found, the dr showed up and we started talking about stuff. He seems to know what he's doing he graduated from the UK and did his studies there in the late 90s. I obviously mentioned to him that I got very supportive friends from a lot of cultures etc. And turns out he does too. He's not the complicated type that thinks our culture is perfect and all other human cultures are wrong, he also isn't the type of psychiatrists constantly using religion to support their speech like I saw other unexprienced ones do. I really appreciate those small details, it made me more comfortable towards him. I think it all went well and I feel positive. I'm too tired though 😴
I haven't decided whether I want to try a session with the other one yet but I'm leaning towards a no because I think a man would get me better in that department. I think I could be a little shy sharing some details with a woman.
