Today I spoke to a coworker who had bad experiences with doctors and was seeking recommendations for a new one, then other coworkers chimed in, and so I decided to ask you guys as well. Well, not for a doctor recommendation, but about your bad experienced with doctors?
I'm gonna spoiler mine, because it makes me very uncomfortable, so perhaps it may make someone else very uncomfortable.
uncomfortable
I had a doctor who had no business in it make me show my intimate parts (I'm intersex) and she touched them. She was curious, I guess…? She's a psychiatrist, so, again, literally 0 business doing so. I already have trauma from regular people who treat me like a circus display, I really had no need for someone with systemic power over me using it like that…
No, I didn't report this. I was a teenager and barely functioning at the time. :/
Sharing woes is never a competition, don't ever worry about this. I'm sorry you had the doctor! That's messed up, especially since it could've potentially affected your development. :(
Probably didn't harm me ultimately, as he did prescribe regular medicine when it was really needed (in addition to some sugar pills usually). Still, it might not have harmed me, but it sure didn't help me, only filling the pockets of some quack companies.
Do pharmacies sell sugar pills?
Yes, at least in Germany they do. Homeopathy is pretty mainstream here.
