Sending love friend! So much to be said about that test and all its useless knowledge and all the histories it does not contain.

Solidarity and love to you, Alycia. That test is the opposite of compassionate. When I went for mine, I had Marjorie's sequence about the test ringing in my ears (from her pamphlet with Hannah - https://stewedrhubarb.org/product/the-world-may-be-the-same-by-hannah-lavery-and-marjorie-lotfi/); there is something comforting in this community of writers all documenting our experiences. Grateful you've added yours xx
