@JessicaValenti Due to the strain on hospitals, Idaho is preparing to implement crisis standards of care for children. Rationing healthcare for children! They won't perform abortions to save women who are miscarrying & apparently can't guarantee healthcare for the kids they force you to have!

Someone called me "brave" recently... if only they knew that I wait at least ten minutes before walking into a single-seater bathroom after it's been used because I am afraid of smells/germs.

Not sure why I went to school for 8 yrs/worked thousands of hours to obtain a clinical license when I could have just read a Wikipedia article about neurocognitive disorders & diagnosed people from afar on my couch. All of you Wikisplainers out there, I admire your confidence!
