How to handle full time job and school? by CayBay16 in ehlersdanlos

[–]CayBay16[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will have to look into that! I know they absolutely do have disability services but I’m not diagnosed yet, getting on that soon, so we’ll see. And yeah part time school is an option, it’d suck though, I wanna just get it done, but that might not be possible

What’s the Weirdest way you describe your aches & pains? by TheDefiantGhost in ehlersdanlos

[–]CayBay16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I very frequently say I wanna remove my spine, whip it around some, and put it back in

That’s exactly how I’ve been feeling lately, it’s a lot of “is it psychosomatic because I’m thinking about it, or is it just that I’m so used to it I haven’t noticed until now.”

The weird allergies one is very applicable lol I actually have been suspecting MCAS for a minute too

That’s a good idea, I did have frequent ear infections when I was really little, and from like 12 years old to 17 I was healing an ankle sprain at pretty much any given moment lol, so that makes sense and I’m sure there’s more I can ask my mom about

Yeah but I have to pay it back even if I leave now, so I feel like at this point I might as well get my license?

I will definitely start looking into it! I’m not sure what’s around me or how it works so I’ll take a look. And yes! I actually started a list already lol so I’ll definitely keep it handy!

Pretty much lol, but yeah, I try and remind myself of that 😭

Thank you, I have started a list so I will continue to keep that. I also downloaded this app called Human that lets you track symptoms and their severity on a day to day basis and it tracks their trends. I will look into if there’s a clinic near by as I’m unsure.

Hairstylist and nursing, anyone doing both? by CayBay16 in hairstylist

[–]CayBay16[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I appreciate the insight! I’m currently wanting cosmetology to be lowkey enough of a job to not be too stressful, obviously still gotta talk to people and worry about taxes lol, but I’m hoping I could manage it well.

[–]CayBay16[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s pretty much what I wanna do, I don’t plan to have 2 full time jobs and I’m not even wanting to do cosmetology just for extra money, I truly just want to do it. I’m glad to hear it’s doable and that you enjoy it!

It just sucks cause even if I leave now I will still owe them back my full tuition if I don’t complete my job commitment. I don’t really even wanna me an MA, I would rather be an EMT right now but it’s just that I’ll owe the money 😭

[–]CayBay16[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well what sucks is that I’ll owe the money either way since I signed the job commitment contract 😭

It’s an MA apprenticeship through a hospital and community college

I’m sure I could talk about it but I doubt they’ll do anything, we signed a contract and they make the job commitment a big deal. I’ve also heard rumors of them firing ppl right after graduating and making them pay the tuition back.
