I feel like a bad patient.

What is one to do when the walk-in clinic is closed, it's a three day weekend and your specialist is off the whole week though? Not to mention, you're freaking out about midterms you have in the coming week and you've been suffering from insomnia for over a month. I try to have the most patience and courtesy in the hospital (because that's what I do everywhere else)(it's not always easy when you have a father who always complains how everything takes to long if the wait is more than 5 minutes).
In retrospect, I would have survived if I waited an extra week. However, I don't think I could have dealt with all the stressors; I was running low on inner strength.
Anyways, I'm asking for forgiveness in regards to the crazy, liers, and plain stupids. Sometimes, going to the ED might be the quickest way to get better. All people want to do is get better because they don't need extra stress in our lives if it's curable. Their heads get fuzzed-up and patients act unrationally. Thus, they show up in the ED complaining about the rash they've had for over a month. All they're asking is to make their lives less shaky. So, thank you to those who put up with the imperfects, especially the healthcare providers. :)
