Went to see the therapist. She's not bad, but I kinda came out feeling worse then when I went in. I'll give her a month or two, see how it works.

My next assignment in Creative Writing is a short story, due Thursday. This is a problem, because while I have plenty of characters running around in my head (Adam the sociopathic murderer, Najwa the mute Pakistani scientist’s assistant, Tom and Scott the brothers born the same year but on opposite ends of it), but no full fledged stories. It's annoying.

Anyone who knows a tiny bit about Megaman should go read this comic

That's because you British people are smarter then us. We have Medicare, which is almost useless.

It's good in theory, yes... In practice, the Tories pulled most of the funding out of it and now things are just about stabilising x amount of years later. *pulls a face*

What's that? *curious look* Insurance or something?

Sort of. Those who can't afford it, like older people, are supposed to get money for medications and such from the government. However, they've been cutting back on it a lot lately. Many people just abruptly lost whatever little coverage they had.

Gives you an idea of what's going on that some people sell their pain medications for food instead of taking them.

Ugh.

Ugh. <:( I can't think of anything that won't sound trite, but that is just horrible. At least you'd get some kind of help from the NHS hospitals, although there's the chance of you coming out with a superbug or two. >_<

My family and I have insurance and my mom knows the mental health care system like Dreadmoon knows Kalis so we're doing all right.

But it really sucks for the poorer people, yet another reason America needs to get its act together and merge with Canada.
