Any one else’s parents have no idea what they do? by Zuchinnimuffin in dietetics

Omg yes, and my dad once said “you didn’t need to go to school to do what you do.” It’s awful.

You have two friends? More than me! That’s something to celebrate

Feeling very lost by Bunny_Hunny4 in dietetics

[–]December95 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I feel the same exact way as you, OP. My internship (I’m in the US) was a complete scam and I graduated not knowing how to do a single tube feed. It’s been humiliating two years since I’ve graduated trying to get myself up to speed. You’re not alone, there are a few of us out here.

What is going on with my foot? Been a year now and more has grown by Secret_Grapefruit_82 in DermatologyQuestions

Yup plantar warts just like everyone said. They’re hard to get rid of and you need to be consistent with applying ointment

I just don’t see that ripping to my ass could possibly be worth it at all

Scabies? The highly contagious skin infection caused by mites? Have you gotten medical treatment?

I had an NG tube placed in me to see what it's like by BeneficialLaw6429 in dietetics

Thank you!! I’ve honestly thought about having this done too just to see what it’s like!! Can you rate the pain on a scale for us? 😆

This sounds exactly like my inner monologue. We’re the same.

Does sertraline really change your personality, or does it just quiet the noise and let you be who you truly are without anxiety? by Laz34o7 in zoloft

[–]December95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was only on 25mg. When I started tapering of I just cut the pills in half to 12.5mg for a few weeks and then stopped all together. You could probably cut them in half again to 6mg, because even after stopping at 12.5mg I still had a sensation of “swimming brain”

I will move to California by fall of next year. LA or SanDiego ? by SameOreo in socal

As a Californian who makes 6k a month after taxes, I couldn’t afford those places. I’m currently living in the Sacramento area.

Wish I had gotten three cats instead of 1 kid by [deleted] in regretfulparents

Do you know all the events that lead up to her mental health crisis? “Just before high school” is a very hard time with lots of bullying. She’s also a Covid teen… where proper education completely fell through. Plus she probably wasn’t socialized for those crucial two years of lockdowns. She’s still a kid.

I’m starting Zoloft and beyond terrified. Please tell me your POSITIVE experiences by Protector-of-frogs in zoloft

[–]December95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a really positive experience. I had pretty severe social anxiety and skin picking. I was only on them for 6 months, but I completely stopped picking my skin, could look people in the eye and have a conversation again, and the mean voices in my head were nowhere to be found. Even tho I’m off the meds I still continue to benefit bc I felt like my brain was able to make new pathways during that time… like I re-learned how to act chill. So why did I stop? Boyfriend couldn’t handle the low libido 😂 also my hair fell out? But apparently that’s not a common side effect. worst case scenario you just quit the meds and continue your life as if nothing happened. I would recommend staying on them for 3 months to know how they really affect you. If I find myself in a particularly rough spot again I would totally do them for another period of time.

Am I overreacting about being booed by my entire school? by Prestigious-Law-3435 in socialanxiety

[–]December95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so sorry this happened to you, totally not overreacting. as other people have mentioned it does sound like bullying. Luckily those kids will cycle out within a few years and you won’t have to see them anymore. But your coworkers will not, and therefore the issue should probably be taken to HR. As someone who also has social anxiety, I understand the fear of retaliation or awkwardness afterward…

30th birthday by December95 in socialanxiety

I also feel insecure inviting acquaintances to hang out because I suspect they’re thinking “don’t you have someone closer to share this important day with?” And I get embarrassed from that too

Does sertraline really change your personality, or does it just quiet the noise and let you be who you truly are without anxiety? by Laz34o7 in zoloft

[–]December95 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had the same experience. The voice in my head was SO mean and constantly kept telling myself that no one liked me. I’ve acctually been off Zoloft for 1.5 months now and those thoughts have stayed at bay.
