You are a strong person who can deal with anything, even if you sometimes think you can't.
That's what I admire about you
When you get knocked down seven times, you get back up eight times.
That is some wicked resilience you have there.
Thanks

I'm fortunate to have never had horrible roommates. But I still don't really like shared accomodation unless it's family or a good friend. And even then I've heard so many things about people starting living together as friends then when they go their separate ways they no longer are.
It's best if everyone keeps to themselves, I think. Friendships complicate things.

It seems like you are waiting a long time to see a psychiatrist, are there any low cost counseling services you could access in the interim? Living with strangers can be quite difficult, but that guy seemed like a bad egg, I'm glad he is gone, you done the right thing, I hope the new one is a quiet type. Its good that you have your studies to focus on, you must be enjoying it?
Yes. It's going well. Learning the medical technology is like learning a new language. Fortunately I studied Latin before.
I felt really bad about contacting the landlord about him, but if I didn't I would have had to move again and I don't think I could take that.

Have you ever tried seeing a peer support worker before? Here you can see them twice a week if you want every week, to have someone to talk to and support you. Peer support workers all have their own experiences with mental illnesses, so you could prolly find one you get along with and click with. The wait lists are usually way shorter than any other mental health worker in Ontario. They are free and covered by OHIP.
I'll have to look into that. It's useful to have someone to talk to.
It is very peaceful here now that there is no one else in the other rooms. It'll be interesting to meet the new guy soon. I have hung up some more pictures.
