Just gotta swap lead poisoning drinking water with checks notes Lead poisoning in drinking water, the air in the form of emissions and microplastics!

(I know lead was dropped from most gasoline in the 90s, but the effects linger. Also in some places there’s exemptions where small planes can use leaded gas to this day)

Then when there is energy to respond, there’s like 5-10 messages to respond to, sometimes from the same person and depending on the day it can feel overwhelming enough to either leave them on read or only respond back to 1-2 messages

I’ve been seeking help on-and-off again for the last 5 years and it’s been the following experience for me.

Years ago, on-and off again Me: seeks help, search for therapist on a budget Prospective therapist: I’m sorry but your case seems complex and requires therapist+ premium starting at $250/hr with weekly sessions starting tomorrow Me: has very little money, insurance only covers $500/year ….

Now Me: seeks help now that there’s money saved up Therapy practices near me: now it’s $270/hr and we’ll call you in 6-10 months to schedule your first consultation appointment

Good fun.
