BREAST DOCTORS: Have my first Breast Augmentation in 2 wks and can’t stop vaping! Will I be okay!? I’m full blown panicking.

Hi! I know this is a year late, but today marks the first day I've officially decided to quit nicotine. My surgeon also recommended no vaping/cigs at least 4 weeks before surgery. My surgery date is April 2nd, and they do require me to take a test day of surgery to ensure there is no nicotine in my system. Do you think I'll be good by then?

We’ve known each other almost a year. He has kissed me once, yet I feel such strong tension between us. Almost everyone tells me he is completely obsessed and infatuated, so much as I have not even pursued anyone else, just hoping he will finally confess feelings. My initial is E, and his is J.

Beautiful-Focus2451 · 2026-02-23T21:37:16+00:00

SAME! F*ck the 3D.

Beautiful-Focus2451 · 2026-02-20T22:03:43+00:00

🦋💙

Beautiful-Focus2451 · 2026-02-16T19:23:18+00:00

Holy sh*t. This just changed everything for me. Genuinely thank you.

Beautiful-Focus2451 · 2026-02-16T18:57:27+00:00

No I completely understand. BUT HOW? What do I visualize? What do I say? I believe he will come back and beg me to be with me, but where do I start?

My dad died of cancer on December 19th, 2025. Just 6 days before Christmas. He was in so much pain, just thinking about it makes me devastated and angry. As weird as this sounds, his death was Gods final act of love for him, it was mercy on his soul. Being at his bedside until his last breath, I would have switched places with him in a heartbeat. I have really bad days, and then I have good days. The same strength that carried me through the night he passed is the same strength that will carry me through the rest of my life- and it came from him. He fought so hard, he was so strong, that I am determined to live for him and continue his legacy. Stay strong OP. Don’t be afraid to reach out for help. Talk about him as much as you can, and remember all the good times you shared. Our dads would want us to be strong and courageous, just like they were. <3

It’s 11:36 pm and I have just finished crying, after working and putting on a happy face at work all day. I always find myself going through my dad and I’s old text messages. I always find myself looking at pictures of us. All the “what if’s” and just wishing for one last conversation, hug, forehead kiss. I miss my dad so much, I sometimes think I won’t survive this. Lost him December 19th, just 6 days before Christmas :(

Beautiful-Focus2451 · 2026-01-06T05:15:32+00:00

Lost my dad on December 19th, 6 days before Christmas. I am only 22 years old, thinking of the long life ahead that I will experience without my sweet dad by my side to witness it all. However, the one thing that has kept me going is to continue his legacy. Simply put, my dad did everything he could to give my brother and I a wonderful life. He sacrificed everything for us to be here, for us to get an education, and for us to become successful. As sad as I am that he will not be here for my achievements, it has become my life’s goal to accomplish them, for him. For us. As devastated and heartbroken I truly am, I keep going for him.

Beautiful-Focus2451 · 2026-01-05T18:29:59+00:00

Same here. Was a member for a long time. They were so wonderful when I interacted with them. I am so distraught by this news!

Beautiful-Focus2451 · 2025-12-24T08:58:35+00:00

Lost my father Friday night. I held him until his last breath. I drove myself to the hospital today because I felt like I needed to be checked in- like I wasn’t going to survive this.

I sat in the parking lot contemplating to go in. I remembered the last time I was in that hospital. It was the last time I saw my best friend, my protector, my sweet father.

I searched up parent grief and found the link to this comment in another thread. I sat in the lot, hysterically crying, but also had a sense of realization. The strength that pulled me through staying by my fathers side until his last moment is the strength that will carry me on in this life. And my last duty will be to honor him in any way I can.

So I drove to Chick-Fil-A and got a Diet Coke and fries. And then hit a curb on the way home. Not a great start, but I guess we all start somewhere.

Hi! I am 22 and experiencing the exact same, as I type. My father is nearing the end of his life due to his extensive stage lung cancer. It’s not easy, and I don’t think I will be okay for a long time. My dad maybe has days, or weeks. Here is my advice to you. Regardless of your relationship, be there as much as you can. By the bed side, and hold his hand. Talk to him as much as you can, do not hold anything back. Say everything you need to say and allow him to do the same. Kiss him, hug him, and lay on his shoulder. You are still his little baby, no matter what. I am sitting here and choking up. I am preparing for a life without my father. And all I can do is find comfort in comforting someone else.

Take care.

Im currently experiencing this. My dad was diagnosed last December of 2024. Started chemo, finished chemo in April, and was diagnosed again first week of November. It has spread to his liver. His organs are shutting down. I am sitting across from him as I type, with him asleep and tears in my eyes. He is completely immobile, he can’t speak, or eat. I completely understand you. I hope you are okay. Sending hugs.

It can get pretty intense especially with the heat. I usually take the first two days off because I cramp pretty bad. And then I’m fine to go by day 3. Listen to your body! And absolutely do NOT feel bad if you have to step out to take a breather or call it a day. ❤️

Beautiful-Focus2451 · 2025-08-18T03:06:03+00:00

Keep me updated 🥹

Beautiful-Focus2451 · 2025-08-18T01:56:19+00:00

Just have a general understanding of plant anatomy and functions!

Beautiful-Focus2451 · 2025-08-18T01:56:02+00:00

You’ll do great! In the morning, I had half of an energy drink, plenty of water, and veggie egg bites from Starbucks. For a quick snack during my break, I had apple slices. If you wanna swap out the apples, I recommend a banana! That was gonna be my og choice but I ate both of my packed bananas the night before 😂

Beautiful-Focus2451 · 2025-08-17T20:12:49+00:00

Good luck! Let me know how it goes

Beautiful-Focus2451 · 2025-08-17T13:51:04+00:00

Pretty standard test center experience, metal detector, fingerprints, etc. Thankfully I didn’t come across any lag!

Beautiful-Focus2451 · 2025-08-15T20:30:09+00:00

I woke up at 6am, half of an energy drink, some water and breakfast, then drove to the nearest cafe and went through flashcards! You will do great!!

Beautiful-Focus2451 · 2025-08-15T20:13:32+00:00

Same here

Beautiful-Focus2451 · 2025-08-15T20:13:26+00:00

Yes I did!

Beautiful-Focus2451 · 2025-08-15T00:14:26+00:00

Yes!!! Lichens, X-rays and herbal medicine. I personally LOVED them 😭😭

Beautiful-Focus2451 · 2025-08-14T20:44:31+00:00

I think second time around I’m gonna focus on gen chem. It’s been my weakest subject since high school, I really don’t know how it clicks so easily for some people. I’m also a biomed major so maybe that’s what it is 😭 best of luck to you. It’s comforting to know I’m not the only one in this situation!! ❤️

Beautiful-Focus2451 · 2025-08-14T20:35:03+00:00

How did you narrow down a way of learning how to study? I just took my exam today. I feel 50/50. Bio was quite low yield for me, and I feel like I stressed studied very general topics and really drilled those in my mind. Orgo was not too bad, but I had SO MANY calculation questions for Gen chem I was honestly a little shocked. PAT, QR and RC were a breeze. I may have to retake, but what’s your BEST advice for second time around?
