But, what: Should I have been expected to create my own self, out of nothing, out of thin, thin air and alone?

But the third thing [was] that at every single clinic I went to, somebody who worked there - it could have been the doctor, it could have been the receptionist - said, "Thank you for coming, no one ever comes."
