Welcome Angel
You put some good points, and one of this forums reasons for being done was like your blog - to get it off your chest on here!
I have found that you can embarass some people into being nice, if they are really nasty, and you are still polite to them. I'm personally getting a bit fed up of it now though, and often feel like people's emotional punching bags, for all their frustrations in the NHS etc
I think some people are: -
1. just plain horrid to everyone
2. are taking out their frustrations with their Dr etc on us
3. some just have no respect for us at all.
I often find that the worst addict, who has a totally miserable life and is treated like s**t by everyone, can be nicer then just ordinary people.
Thanks for joining, and we'll look forward to more of your opinions
