I guess it was the very first time I had experienced what that vulnerability of being on the other side of the consultation table feels like. I just wanted somebody to listen to what my anxieties were. Everybody said - you are just anxious, you are just traumatised, heres an anti-depressant, this will fix it. I had never really felt the need to listen to my intuition until that point. There were lots of different things that happened, that made me look - not just at my own life but really has informed the kind of doctor I am now
