Hua Hin Forum

oh BB, don't get me wrong..... my experience wasn't with my own issues, it's more I was on the sidelines looking in, with close friends and family. It just was worse than useless, and I don't say that flippantly, I do mean their actual mental state deteriorated. Two years of at least one (1 on 1) se...

Handrummer, one of the main difference I think between psychology here, and psychology in the states is... I understand in the states it's very common to find a psychologist who, while they might dip their toes into varied areas, they tend to specialise in one particular area.... say in grief therap...

It's not that the feelings are right or wrong, it's how we interpret and act on those feelings. Some people respond to empathy and some to discipline, some to kindness and others a "kick up the backside." There's no one size fits all and good therapist (I've known a few) will find out wha...

I find this a very interesting topic, but one that makes me quite hesitant. My views on this subject have got me into trouble more than once. So I will tread very carefully…. I won’t lie and pretend I know what depression or any other MH issues feels like. I haven’t lead a charmed life (far from it)...

It's been shown many times that the act of touching their face increases when wearing a mask. That goes with all the adjustments carried on. They put a mask on me immediately on entering the hospital (here in NL) and I definitely found I touched my face more. A lot more. I tried to stop my self (as...

ach, shaving won't work for me, I would just look like an old version of a lipstick lesbian. I thought I could make it less bad by dying it a blonde colour. Which might have worked if it hadn't turned white.

oh well, could be worse, it coulda turned green

It's taken in Italy in Milan. It takes you inside the hospitals.
It's around 45 mins long and I'll warn you now. It's very harrowing.

heartbreaking

I will update if there is anything to update.... but I kinda think that's me now. I don't have to go to my GP or anything to get any type of "all clear", I get to judge that all on my own some. The advice I was given in the hospital is: "when you are symptom free for 24hrs you can abo...

Actually, that's the same policy as in the US and UK. In both those countries, people with mild symptoms are not eligible for testing. My daughter works in the NHS in England. As she explained to me, the current NHS policy is not to test patients unless they are in serious enough condition to be ho...

The group is young, I know that's not referring to age. However, that must be considered. Us old fogies well into their 70's and beyond should be more aware of 'social distancing' than most others. Younger people commonly only get mild, or no symptoms. That doesn't mean they can't spread the diseas...

that makes me feel ill just looking at it

(With no disrespect intended to the poster) but Is no once else agog at the thought of spending 28,000 baht for a single pair of glasses, even with 'reactolite'? I find that cost incomprehensible. 3 years ago, I bought 2 pairs of prescription driving glasses and one each for reading and using a com...

but it's not half as entertaining to watch

Worked fine back in May/June. I'm interested too to hear if that's still the case.
