Thanks @Zoe7 I appreciate you sharing a bit of your story. I actually find people very interesting and how they negotiate challenges is of course quite interesting as I may find some gems in there for myself.
Quick bit of background I have not had much MH support, despite being a survivor of childhood sexual, physical, psycholgical abuse and torture.
First time was age 30yo when I realised I was never going to have children. That was for a couple of years.
Then nothing for a few years until main perpetrator died again maybe a year and then 20 something years later when I got my first cancer in 2022.
I had 8 psycho-oncology appointments for getting through cancer treatment as it replicated some of abuse.
When I was discharged even though I was referred to a private psychologist there was a wait time, so I applied for Guided recovery because it was available for my postcode (a requirement back then).
That cousellor was really great.
Then I had private psych for a while until I got cancer again and was referred back to psycho-oncology. Then referred to different private psych.
