Hi,
How does everyone go about checking what they perceive as normal behaviour is quite normal when it contrasts with another person?
For example - I have a hospital trip coming up with 3 scans that are quite urgent. In the past if this is a loved one, I have offered to go and made it a priority to support the person.
my mum today said she didn’t offer to come because it was just a scan and she didn’t think it was important and that I view things differently.
that’s just one example, this happens to me quite a lot so I would like to know how you check on kind of what your brains perceives being normal?
For me it is usual to go to medical appointments alone and has been since I was about 12, to be honest I gave up trying to work out what normal behaviour is long ago, I think it's roughly the opposite of just about anything I do or think.
Thank you
