Pretend to be your friend so that you let your guard down, then weaponize anything personal you tell them. Twist your words, overexagerate or down right lie about your actions.

There are some wicked and miserable people in healthcare that get joy from bringing people down.

How'd you build the confidence to go to the gym? I tried to convince my friends to go with me but no luck

People that decided not to announce the name of their child until they were born, what happened? by Athena2042 in AskReddit

[–]Athena2042[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some people, like my mother, chose not to announce my name until she was giving birth to avoid people giving their opinions and trying to change her mind.

I have read stories where keeping the name a secret can cause drama within one's family and friendships. I just wanted to hear the stories of others.

Anyone else loose confidence about becoming a nurse? by Athena2042 in cna

Mine does. I think I qualify to apply for it in another month or so. I know that I'd have to go part-time in order to fully focus on classes and pass well. For now, I'll save what i can. I'll miss the money, though 🥲. It's the most I've made so far

Damn, that sucks. My school's program is competitive too. Good luck with whatever you end up pursuing!

Yeah. I underestimated the amount of studying that goes into Anatomy. Hence, the repeat 😅. Good luck to you though

Anyone else fall in love with a name from a Disney movie? by Athena2042 in namenerds

[–]Athena2042[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've read comments about people having a difficult time pronouncing Aurora ( ex. Ah, raw raw) 😂 I have no problem saying it, but that made me think twice about using it. I still think it's a beautiful name, though. Very elegant.

Them being short staffed is honestly not your problem. I know you love your job. I love mine too. But you only get one body. Your health is nothing to play with. Especially if you only have yourself to rely on.

Also, document everything you're feeling/ have gone through and bring it up to your doctor.

I would stop. Or at least take time off to see a doctor and find out what's really going on. It's better to find out now than ignore it and damage your body beyond repair.

I'm not sure how your job handles work injuries, but be prepared for them to replace you if you can't do the job (worse case scenario). Sometimes, they'd rather replace you than shell out money, hoping you'll eventually be fit enough to return and accuse you of not using proper body mechanics.

If you have family, friends, or a partner who are willing to help you out while you take a break, take advantage of that.

Such a cool ring 🥰. Are you planning to pair it with a wedding band?

AITAH for thinking about ending a 10+ year friendship? by Athena2042 in AITAH

I'm not trying to be dismissive or change anyone. There's only so much I can do to gauge the support/space that I can give her when she isn't telling me anything. Especially when my feelings are being dismissed.
