How Do You Know What You Need?

Hello, 

I hate the question 'what do you need at this time?' 

Ugh. A headache I don't need. 

This usually comes from health professionals when I go to then for a medically related issue. But since being under MAIN (a charity organisation that supports people with Autism), every time I go to then saying I am struggling I can't explain it and they ask this question and I never know how to answer it. 

I am a survivor of multiple types of abuse, I have abandonment issues from the relationship with my mum and other relationships I've had in life. I have complex grief as a result. I'm not sure whether my life has a way forward out of all these issues. I write fantasy novels but don't stand a chance of getting them published. I don't have the skills. 

I wish it was as simple as talking to someone professionally and explaining this and them saying 'You know what? I have the perfect solution.' 

But it's not. 

What do you do when you can't be heard by the very people who are supposed to help you?

  • I need peace, and contentment.

    My local area isn't wise. It's a land that time forgot. But not in a good way.

    Fortunately, I have good neighbours; where I live. I'm not in the middle of the Gossip-Mill. Plus, the walls are strong enough to allow me to play Noisy Drone Rock, without anyone's sleep disturbed.
