Hey, there's a good idea...writing to neuros...

We should all put our heads together and write a generic Limbolanders-to-neurologists letter. I'll start...

"Dear Neurologist

I have come to you for your expert opinion because I am in pain/troubled by a range of very odd symptoms.

Just because you're an expert in neurology, it doesn't mean to say that you're an expert in ME or my psychology. So please do not automatically assume that I am faking/imagining things/over-reacting/needing to be ill.

Please be very certain that I just want to GET ON WITH MY LIFE instead of being so hampered by all these symptoms.

..... [your turn ;-)] "

OMG that's awesome and exactly what i want to do sometimes!!!!!!!!!!! I really do not know what stops me..i think it is to the point where I KNOW my mouth will definately get me in trouble... i'm a pretty quiet kid and always have been so it would be quite a surprise to everyone if i did something like that...but i think your right..sometimes, bullies, as you describe here need to be put in their place....

Charley your right.. I think they have this front of being intimidating but are really weak....and I can alsmost see that in some situations with this one...

hmmmmmmm... I'll let you know how it goes along......;o)

I love it

Well, I must be too because I don't see anything wrong with standing up to a bully.  They are usually weak people.  You probably did her a favor.  Personally, I am more at home with people who speak their minds, if they are not just being manipulative and b..tchy.  At least I know where I stand.  
My family is full of people who thrive on ripping others down so I've had a lot of practice not taking it in and personal and believe me I'm still working on it.

I'm thinking of the bully neuros that I've seen and am still trying to think about how to write an appropriate letter to them.  I met a nurse yesterday who told me neuros think they are at the top of the food chain and that everyone else is inferior.  I know from the posts that there are some decent neuros, but it seems most of us see  ones that give us great distress.  I know that when I am not feeling well and extremely tired all that I have written above goes out the window.  Such is life, yes? Hugs, Charley.

I had the same situation a few years back. This B**ch was evil!She was a trouble maker and a bully. She too had everyone snowballed. It amazes me how blind people are sometimes. Nope you should not report her because she will just B.S her way out of it and turn it around on you.
She had never actually said anything to me directly. But she decided one day to include me in her venomous rantings.She was the receptionist at the salon I worked in. I was up making copies and she made some comment about my hair. I stopped right in the middle of what I was doing and walked right up to the desk. Very calmly but not quietly, I said that I felt sorry for her because her self esteem was so low that she had to pick on others to try to make herself feel better. That she must have a truely horrible extistance to be so miserable. I told her that she had been allowed to get away with this $hit for far too long and her reign of terror had ended. She was looking at me like a deer in the headlights.She actually looked surprised that some one was calling her out. She stood up as though she was going to punch me. I guess she was use to people backing down or being intimidated. I was not.I got right up in her personal space and I laughed at her and said how typical . Which seemed to **** her off even more. It was hilarious she was bright red and so angry she started to cry.So I figured my work is done here..She actually left that day and never came back.
I have learned the best way to deal with people like that is to call them out infront of people. But you need to be prepared for the response and be able to handle the situation. If she would have actually swung on me I would have climbed the over grown Sasquatch like a tree.
But this is where one of my biggests faults sets in.I am not one to think or acually care about the repercussions of my actions. Like I have said I act and speak sometimes without thinking first. I am the first to admit I am a bit of a sociopath..LOL I am just being honest....
So now that I officially sound mentally unstable ....LOL

Please Take Care...Theresa....
