    Sometimes economic damage ends up being deadlier than bombs. I don’t care about billionaires, but I do care about people who suddenly can’t afford to travel to their job or pay for groceries or healthcare.

      there was a major shipping delay due to the war right as i was trying to get medical supplies. delayed them by a month.

      i had two weeks left when i ordered. it normally only takes one for them to arrive. had to go into emergency repair mode and i quite literally was held together with tape and hope when the supplies finally ordered.

      i have been fighting with my MD to get more supplies than a bare minimum. She ordered (and paid) for a year’s supply for me immediately after the event, so at least she’s not completely callous.

      only therapists around here only offer cognitive behavioral therapy and that does not help with trauma.
