Cripple Chronicles | Episode 15 | Life update and letting off some steam

TRIGGER WARNING - blanket trigger warning for discussion of mistreatment in medical settings, abuse and self harm. I have tried to indicate when speaking where particularly triggering parts may be and have also detailed in the timestamps.

This episode I get into talking about where I am at with some struggles in my recovery with a couple of appointments I had in the last week. And then I had a bit of a rant about health services and the government following some discussions I've had with friends over the past few weeks.
