I became an acupuncturist because of an illness I contracted when I was 16 years old. Horrible virus type symptoms, and even after the acute illness faded, I was left totally exhausted, hardly able to do anything. I had all the Western tests run on me, and they were, of course, "normal." I said that wasn't normal for a teenager, and went to an acupuncturist my mom was seeing. My acupuncturist actually listened to me, and we uncovered anxiety and depressive symptoms at the root of it all that I wasn't addressing or dealing with. Not only did my acupuncturist make me feel better, I feel like she actually listened to me and heard and validated what I had to say.
