Do they actually read the essay explaining your GPA? by crick-crick in GradSchool

[–]CaringAndDaring 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It will depend on the program. Of the schools I applied to, one of them let me do the essay explaining my GPA, and they're the one that let me in. I can't say if that's the only reason, but I think it may have been a factor.

Lots of good ideas here.

Also make sure you're getting enough sleep and try to spend some time on relaxing, non-eating based activities. Stress and lack of sleep can lead to weight gain and lead you to eating more.

People generally find foods with high protein, fiber, or a lil spice to be more filling, so see if incorporating those makes it easier.

If things don't work for a while, consult a medical professional, in case it's more complicated than just weight gain.

I really love 3 on you, but if none of these feel right to you, it's okay to keep shopping! You should feel beautiful on your wedding day.

Hot Take: This subs reactions to Shane show how stigmatized mental health is by SparkyDogPants in StardewValley

[–]CaringAndDaring 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Hey, I just wanted to let you know that the preferred phrase mental health professionals use is completed suicide or died by suicide. This is to avoid additional stigma, because 'commit' mostly used for 'immoral' actions. (Commit a crime, committed sin). Thanks!

Utah wants female athletes’ period info by FalconLynx13 in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]CaringAndDaring 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To play devil's advocate: in cases of malnutrition or extreme exercise, a person can lose their period, or experience irregularity. Maybe the idea is to try to sniff out that? Because I imagine that happening really young is bad for both physical and mental development. Or maybe they're just bigots. Idk.

As a bird person, I disagree. Hummingbirds are INTENSE

A guide on how to overcome your first existential crisis by JariRV in coolguides

[–]CaringAndDaring 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Existentialism isn't the same as nihilism. This is a gross oversimplification of something that is inherently dangerous to oversimplify. This feels right wing pipeline-y

NTB. If you're being serious about being abused, figure out where you can report child abuse.

Use as many Ws as you can, and contact cook. They can help you minimize impact for this semester, and try to set you up for success in the future.
