Does it make one feel better or worse -

to find oneself in an office
with a professional
who cannot hide
their shock
their concern
their sadness
over what has been one’s reality for 67 days?

It might make one feel better to have their lived experience validated as worse than the sound bite being played ad nauseam.

It might make one feel worse that the person who saw better than most was a professional skilled at addressing dysfunction in all mediums.
