My health carers claimed I should have made more of an effort/ taken the initiative to call them back. Maybe they were busy/ distracted but I have to appreciate their constraints in wanting to maintain confidentiality and being concerned that my home situation would not have allowed for that.
I feel more passive about having my rights trampled on a bit, partly because my self esteem/ self confidence is impacted negatively, and I am feeling conflicted about the message of right to autonomy preached by my psychologist for example vs. the litany of incompetency that I am preached by family.
With the physical injury I got the attention/ support that I craved, but it only highlighted the fact that my mental health isolates me a lot.
