Fucking bullshit.
Sorry - I just hate it when systems get in the way of good people just doing what should be normal things.
Personally, I'm dealing with Canada's troubled healthcare system with my Wifey.
Mostly filled with good people trying to do what they can.
But "what they can" is blocked by so many issues and problems they're not allowed to change... it produces such animosity without any outlet for it other than: Fucking bullshit.
And, of course, the all powerful and just as useful: "If I was in charge..."
I just found one of those psychiatrists and paid hundreds of cash to see him privately to skip the gatekeepers
Nice one.
We're basically doing the same thing: moving to USA to skip the gatekeepers.
"It sounds like you might be experiencing happiness."
Even the bitter sweet is still sweet.
That is: may have been a while to get there, but if "there" is close now - nothing wrong with enjoying it.
I've long thought that "aligning one's thoughts with reality" brings it's own contentment.
That is - if you're not fighting against reality (consciously or subconsciously), don't have to remember any lies, and can simply focus on "what do I have-to/want-to do today?" ... things are just.... nicer.
Quiet, calm... content.
The way it ought to be for everyone.
Good for you to find your way closer.
Unfortunately, there are so many out there who are unwittingly their own worst enemy on finding contentment/inner-peace. With the worst part being that they think the things they're doing are helping... when actually a lot of those things are directly adding to the problems.
-oh... that was a general musing, not a directed-at-you musing, if it wasn't clear.
Back to addressing you directly: Glad to hear things are moving in the positive direction - Good Luck out there!
