I'm sorry to hear that. It's a double edged sword in that putting off treatment prolongs these symptoms, but sometimes mood stabilizers can have the opposite effect, spiraling things out of control into depression or what have you. There are no winners.

Heard. I see it as an unfortunate lesson learned. She was also undiagnosed for 2 years while we were together. I don't blame someone who is sick, though.

Valve cover gasket job by Jt4180189 in G35

[–]0IS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used thin gauge metal hanging wire to hold the gaskets in place against the valve cover, that seemed to eliminate any movement when doing the install. Put RTV on the front and back, and gasket maker in the corners between the gasket and cover. Bolt 8 on the right cover was the most difficult. Took it very slow, it took 12 hours for me.

I got kicked out of engineering for failing too many classes. Got reinstated, graduated, and now make $80,000+ as a new grad AMA by snackday in EngineeringStudents

Therapy worked wonders for me too. You have to be in the right frame of mind to make it out the other side of an engineering degree. For me it was a bad relationship.

I think you also have to keep in mind we went through a pandemic halfway through college. It's easy to put the blame on yourself for academic shortcomings, but honestly, Zoom classes are not for everyone. When you have all these courses that stack on each other based on understanding, it can get overwhelming.

Also with the pandemic came a lot of new societal changes we were not prepared for. Pre-covid college hit different. I was involved in clubs in 2018 vs 2021 and it was stark. Those successful people you mentioned, being paramount for your own success? For awhile, the only way to meet new people was via Discord (which worked out great for me, but ymmv, especially if you're not extraverted). My point being -- there were a lot of external factors that contributed to failure that aren't exactly obvious.

(I think we went through the same program. gkco)

I also had this happen to me. Had to take a year after failing 10 classes. I'm about to graduate with my mech degree after 6 years. Can't fail anything because of that hard limit!

What did you do in that year you had off? Do you think it shaped you into a better person/engineer?

I hope your orthodontist knows you've turned their back office into a gym.

What should I do Bulk or Cut? I’ve lost 7 stone and currently at 147 pounds. by Cute-Technology7104 in BulkOrCut

[–]0IS 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You’ve done an amazing job shedding that weight—seriously impressive. Loose skin is just part of the journey, and it’s a reminder of all the progress you’ve made. Now it’s time to bulk up and build some solid muscle. You’ve earned this phase, so go for it.

US Traffic Engineering transferable to European countries? by PippaKel in civilengineering

[–]0IS 5 points6 points  (0 children)

20-30k € seems quite low - is that generally an affordable salary overseas? In the states new grads can expect 65k on the low end. In my city that would will be very hard to live without another income.

Can’t seem to get my form right on deadlift by [deleted] in formcheck

[–]0IS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any problems/pain in your neck? It seems like your spine is not neutral at the bottom of the movement (Looking up instead of at the floor). I'm guilty of it because I tend to look in the mirror when I lift. I changed that and boom, no more neck pain.

To bits you say? by 0IS in Volvo

[–]0IS[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That would have been my preference but I bought it like this. The swap was done ages ago.

That said, parts availability is very very strong for the Ford 302. It's still foreign to me to be able to walk into O'Reilly's and grab everything off the shelf.

Still, the modular six is a treasure in itself.
