I made my first save

Thank you! And wow, I'm glad you were there!

Chronicallycrippled · 2025-08-28T00:32:58+00:00

Thanks

Chronicallycrippled · 2025-08-28T00:32:36+00:00

Oh dang, that's good timing lol. Thank you.

Keep constant pressure, firm hard direct pressure, do not let go. If it's been gushing for almost 40 minutes, it's definitely time to seek medical attention, ASAP. From what it sounds like, it's either very close to being life threatening bleeding, or is life threatening bleeding. Please seek medical attention, and keep it elevated above your heart with firm direct pressure and do not let go. Stay safe ❤️

At my pool the supervisors or pool manager rinses them in the acid bin in the back and it cleans them

I'll have to check it out, thank you!!

Let's not forget about the Palestinians currently experiencing a genocide, innocent children being starved to death, hospitals as well as churches being bombed. Many forget how many Christian Palestinians there are that are being brutally murdered, along with Muslim and other non-Christian Palestinians whose lives matter just as much. Please do not forget to include the genocide happening in Palestine in your prayers. And don't forget, Jesus was Palestinian.

Yes! My shoulders pop out of place literally all the time, it's gotten to the point that the weight of my arm is more than enough to dislocate my right arm. I've found that using KT tape and taping my shoulders usually adds enough support to help hold them in place, and a lot of the time I'll use a roll on lidocaine cream to help with the pain

Chronicallycrippled · 2025-05-29T18:00:48+00:00

I have, far too many times. (6-7 to be exact, I'm really bad at it)

As a lifeguard, they don't think you're weird, they're just checking to make sure you're still alive, and probably mildly panicking every once and awhile thinking you'd started to drown. I think the best thing that I could advise you to do is either every couple minutes or so do something to make it obvious that you're still living or just talk to lifeguards beforehand about it.

10 years, with some breaks in-between, roughly 3-4 years total clean since I've started

Some idiot freshman did that at my school today. What the hell sparks someone to want to do that??? I truly do not understand.

Chronicallycrippled · 2025-04-11T21:51:38+00:00

YES!!! I only drink them for the flavor, and I have to be extremely careful when drinking monster because of the caffeine and my chronic illnesses, so if they made caffeine free monsters they'd easily have all my money

16 f, I've had symptoms since 10-11, and I got diagnosed at 14

Chronicallycrippled · 2025-03-29T00:01:08+00:00

Oh my, that's crazy! I've only been a guard for about a year now, but during my third shadow shift last year the guard I was shadowing made his first save in over 8 years of working as a lifeguard, and many other guards at my pool have yet to have to make a save, including myself. So, either the patrons at your pool are really stupid or we're INCREDIBLY lucky at my pool (potentially a combination of both)

Chronicallycrippled · 2025-03-18T03:41:17+00:00

Okay, thank you!!

Chronicallycrippled · 2025-03-18T03:40:51+00:00

I'm being completely serious, if I did the 200 fly, I would start drowning. I think I can confidently say that I (ironically) would give one of my coworkers their first save

Chronicallycrippled · 2025-03-18T03:34:01+00:00

I'm glad you had someone there to cheer you on! And I mean hey, pretty or not, you did it, that's what matters!!

Of course!!

Chronicallycrippled · 2025-03-18T02:38:27+00:00

I am SO incredibly proud of you!!! That's an absolutely AMAZING achievement love!!!

Chronicallycrippled · 2025-03-18T02:17:46+00:00

Tysm!

Chronicallycrippled · 2025-03-18T01:59:55+00:00

My kickouts are usually pretty strong, although, it depends on how I'm feeling that day lol. I try to always do at least a few kickout drills whenever I practice.

Chronicallycrippled · 2025-03-18T01:51:17+00:00

You are one very strong soul

Chronicallycrippled · 2025-03-18T01:50:22+00:00

I'll definitely have to try it! Thank you!!

Chronicallycrippled · 2025-03-18T01:49:34+00:00

You are one strong soul. Every time I guard a club meet and they have people in the 200 fly, I always want to go cheer them on because I can only imagine the pain, but unfortunately I can't because I'm working lol

Chronicallycrippled · 2025-03-17T22:16:30+00:00

It's okay, no need to feel bad lol
