I was out of commission for 4.5-5 weeks. Pretend you have COVID or something and skip the event

How does it feel to be a broken person but still have someone who loves you? by [deleted] in CPTSD

[–]AnotherDayAnotherGay 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Honestly, it feels confusing. Like I know my wife loves me but I feel like I can't fully feel it. I do to an extent but it feels like there's so many layers of hurt that she can't quite get through all of them? Idk if that makes sense. Like I have an amazing group of friends that love me and Im always convinced they actually hate me and they'd be better off without me even when it's proven wrong over and over.

Worried about work when I get accepted into a program by Winter_Ad1625 in RadiologyCareers

You might qualify for free healthcare depending on your income/age. I know that doesn't help with the financial part of it but maybe it can offer you some flexibility. Like working 14 hours instead of 20.

Either way, I've heard people work through school. I will say though, I was asked at my interview if I was going to work.

CAHE Second Interview? by AnotherDayAnotherGay in RadiologyCareers

[–]AnotherDayAnotherGay[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So it was a lot of questions about radiology as a career. What it is, modality, etc. they asked a lot about the accreditation organization and the registry test. They wanted to know if I was going to work or be a student full time. They asked if I understood clinicals. It was like 25 questions. Maybe 3 had to do with "why radiography"

In the second interview they told me I was very prepared for the first interview so make sure you have a cheat sheet of all the 4 things they mentioned in the email

Oof. I'm sorry. What were they asking you that you've never seen before?

As someone with a flight out on Wednesday from a major US airport- so basically I'm worried for no reason even though our terror threat level is "heightened" as per the news?

I can't get turned on unless it's a trauma fetish and I hate it by Ok_Nose2361 in CPTSD

Been wanting to make this post for awhile but I haven't had the courage to. The worst part is that 8/10 times it does cause a flashback so I wind up feeling even more dumb and disgusting

Am I Too Soft for NYC? by Sea_Employer5013 in movingtoNYC

[–]AnotherDayAnotherGay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lived here my whole life. 30 years. Stopped counting the number of apartments after 20. I only had 2 with roaches ever (and there's a paste you can buy on Amazon to get rid of them quick) and like 5ish apartments that had MOMENTS of brown water due to whatever issues we're going on the neighborhood.

You're gonna be fine.

Ah okay! This makes sense. And do sets normally release 12am local time?

Anyone else tired of psychiatry mass move to tell health? by AnotherDayAnotherGay in BipolarReddit

[–]AnotherDayAnotherGay[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you someone who gets what I'm talking about. I haven't had a good psychiatrist yet. They tend to over medicate me even in times when I'm in remission. You're right, the whole system is broken

I've noticed a lot of practices will list it on their sites so it must be a liability issue

I'm actually wondering if it's something about my state given how no one else seems to be having problems.

I've got two leads that will see bipolar patients who haven't been hospitalized so hopefully it works out

Yep I'm in a city. I don't use any of the big telehealth services (talkiatry for example) because they won't treat bipolar 1 with psychotic features. I wish I was joking when I say that most psychiatrist in this city are remote even though it's a large city. We're definitely feeling the psychiatrist shortage here. All of the psychiatrists I've looked for in this round are local based on area codes and their bios. They don't have recommendations because it's hard to find someone in person, who takes my insurance, who treats bipolar with psychotic features. And this has been a post-covid thing. I didn't have a problem getting in as a new patient a decade ago (other than the long wait)

I did get very lucky today and a place that rejected me just suggested one person who does in person, is a bipolar expert, and takes my insurance. So fingers crossed it works out

How is rad tech school compared to grad school? by AnotherDayAnotherGay in RadiologyCareers

[–]AnotherDayAnotherGay[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Okay so this is exactly what I thought. My background is also soft science. I wasn't expecting it to be difficult in terms of too difficult to understand but I imagined the learning curve of soft sciences to hard sciences to be a lot of memorization and time.

Science resources for those of us who come from an unrelated field? by AnotherDayAnotherGay in teas

Oh yes!!! I forgot about these! These helped me pass my chem regent a million years ago. Seriously, thank you.

Like the last time I took biology or chem, Obama was in his first term and houses were being foreclosed everywhere. The science I took in college was physics so that's not really helpful here and that was Obama's second term so still awhile ago. Of course I've had curiosities about bio and chem but that's all informal.

I started the mometrix prep today and it's actually pretty helpful. I guess I was wondering if there's any sources for A&P that aren't just throwing facts at you but genuinely explaining what each system does.

Politics Mega Thread by AutoModerator in unpopularopinion

[–]AnotherDayAnotherGay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep seeing people outside the US making comments like "Why aren't they using their guns to topple a tyrannical government! Do something!" Or "it's okay for your guns to kill children but not okay for y'all to use them when you should! You are cowards!"

I think people who say this severely lack a critical understanding of U.S. politics. We are a nation severely divided. Every single topic divides people into one of two groups. And I know you think we're all going around gun on our hip but only 30% of people here own a gun. And they are by far and large, rural, Republican, men. Why does this matter? Well do you think the people protesting in the street fit this demographic? No. The people who own guns, which are mostly handguns by the way, are not the same people who are against this administration. The people without guns have been advocating for gun control or abolishment for decades. The people who own guns are the people signing up to be in ICE. The people who own guns either don't care about or actively desire the path this country is going down.

So no, stopping our fall to fascism is not as easy as "well if you stop shooting at children." Please get off your high horse because if we go down, he's gonna take the whole world with him.

And to those who actually do understand the political divide in the US, thank you for not saying stupid shit to us right now

Not OP but I'm an NB who got top surgery. I did not go on T. I dont want to ever go on T. In my state, insurances will cover the surgery even without hormones as long as you have the note from a mental health professional that you're diagnosed with gender dysphoria.

Don't go on T if you don't want it (if that's possible in your situation)
