I hate feeling like I’m just a number to every business, person, or company. Every transaction feels like they just have to do the absolute bare minimum, and if they don’t even accomplish that, it doesn’t matter because I’m just a number.

Even worse, just feeling like a target for advertising

If I can piggy-back off of this: I’ve been feeling this especially hard when it comes to doctors recently. I’ve had an on-going problem, and it feels like I’m getting blown off at every turn. My PCP referred me to a specialist without doing too much, the specialist is ignoring my history and prescribing me something I’m not comfortable taking, and now when I try to call my PCP and the specialists office to figure out what to do they point fingers at each other and try to get off the phone as fast as possible. It feels so disgusting. I can empathize that for them the system must suck as well, but I’m just trying to take care of my health and it feels like I’m met with so much resistance. I don’t really know what to do anymore.

Honestly, the only thing they haven’t skimped on is sending the bills.
