Lovely to see you back on flosstube

[@RosClarkeCraft]

Thank you! I have missed your videos too.

Good to see you back and all chatty about what you love. You’ve really had a terrible experience the past few months Ros. Hopefully the HRT will continue to work some magic and let you get back to being yourself and coping better with all the things. Advocating for yourself when you are in breakdown is tough. Well done on getting through to them. 😘

[@RosClarkeCraft]

Thank you! You’ve been such a blessing through the dark times.

I'm always so happy to see one of your videos pop up! I am intrigued by your new stitch along, especially about combining fabric and stitching 🧐. Looking forward to learning more soon! I am so sorry you've had such a rubbish couple months health-wise. I had an experience in college in which I was so shocked by how I was treated and dismissed that I couldn't even respond in the moment. It's a hard place to be in. But I am glad you have someone new for treatment and that your work is being supportive.

[@RosClarkeCraft]

Thank you. I am excited about the SAL and enjoying getting it ready to launch. More info soon!

Nice to see you again, Ros. I’m sorry for your health struggles. That GP is a disgrace. I’ve had some terrible GP appointments myself in the past and it’s disgusting how little some of them know about mental health conditions. Upping an antidepressant dose on a temporary basis is downright dangerous and she should be investigated but anyway I’m glad you got the help you deserved in the end. Look forward to your next video whenever you’re ready 😊

[@RosClarkeCraft]

Thanks, Laura. I’m doing so much better now, so hopefully I’ll be stitching and posting more!

Lovely to see you back. You've been missed! So sorry to hear about your health troubles, I agree that women's health and mental health still need promoting. And how have I missed your patreon???? Off to check that out right now!

[@RosClarkeCraft]

Thank you! And yes, absolutely. Women still get a raw deal in so many ways.

[@ankaretwells7618]

I'm so sorry you had to go through that with the locum doctor. I know how it feels to freeze up in medical environments. I hope things turn a corner with the new medication. Much love.

[@RosClarkeCraft]

Since recording, things really have improved a lot, thankfully. I’m sorry you’ve had similar experiences too.

[@jodiroper5045]

Sorry that you are going through so much.

[@RosClarkeCraft]

Thank you. It really has improved a lot since filming.

[@sleepycalico]

I am appalled that anyone in the medical field would try to take you off of antidepressant medication while you are still in the thick of it. Actually I'm furious. What an incompetent. Wishing you all the best.

[@RosClarkeCraft]

I may not have been completely clear. She didn’t actively take me off the antidepressants, but she didn’t put the extra dose on repeat and I couldn’t face seeing another doctor to ask for more. Still bad, especially with what also went on with the HRT, which she did stop.
