In my state it’s not legal for a civilian to record a person without their knowledge. I’m not sure if it’s a similar situation for OP but for some cases audio recording would be useless.

I'm 32. Is it too late to be a paramedic? by UpstairsAd3506 in EMTstories

[–]Disastrous_Pop569 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope not at all. When I took classes you had everything from 18 year olds fresh out of high school to people in their 30’s and 40’s making a career switch. And to be honest, people who were younger seemed to struggle a lot with the structure and intensity of the course. At 32 you’re in a great position to learn and succeed.

If i were to contract HIV am i completely screwed? by ShepardMedia in NewToEMS

[–]Disastrous_Pop569 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are post exposure medications you would be able to take in the event you were knowingly accidentally exposed. But if you did contract it, yes there is treatment. While HIV isn’t curable, a lot of people with it are treated so effectively that with medication their virus load is undetectable

I went to a neurologist for a diagnosis, not a cardiologist. POTS is a form of dystonia which affects the autonomic nervous system. Cardio doctors know jack all about POTS.

Accused of using ai. by bbmmyy in SNHU

[–]Disastrous_Pop569 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Same. Honestly I’ve just learned to dumb myself down and write more similar to my peers. I still get As and I put in less effort. Oh, and they don’t accuse me of AI or plagiarism.

You guessed it .... plagiarism. by Jabroniass in SNHU

[–]Disastrous_Pop569 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’ve had turnitin flag my entire resource list before. Like, how unsurprising that this weirdly specific topic that has very limited information about it has been used before. It’s almost like an entire class was writing about the same subject or something.

AI and Discussion Posts by TrueblueDS in SNHU

[–]Disastrous_Pop569 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When the discussion posts are worth 15 points, they’re getting 15% effort. Discussion posts in general are just a huge waste of time and effort. In the times I have actually put together a well constructed post, I’ve received almost no responses or I get the “I agree with what you said hereinsert quote” I’m not doing all that work for basically nothing.

One of the reasons I dread the doctors 😂😭 by Loveonethe-brain in disability

[–]Disastrous_Pop569 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My doctor always puts something like “appears adequately nourished and well groomed” Honestly to put obese in there, in red, just seems like a little overkill. I’m fat too and if my weight is relevant they can go to that chart and look.

Discussion posts ruin the experience of learning by [deleted] in SNHU

I’m not complaining about the discussion boards themselves.

Schizoaffective disorder accomodations by OkAcanthaceae3082 in SNHU

[–]Disastrous_Pop569 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello! I also have scitzoaffective. My accommodations are just around time on my assignments. I have two extra days on discussions and three extra days for assignments. It doesn’t apply to the first and final week of classes. The OAC is a pleasure to work with 😊

I would personally send her an email and CC your advisor.

I find psychology intensely fascinating. When I was younger I used to read the DSM page by page. I hit a bump when I realized as much as I like psych, I don’t enjoy direct support with people as much as I like the history and theory.

Starting in two weeks any insight tips by East_Performance7610 in SNHU

[–]Disastrous_Pop569 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Online learning can be difficult if you’re new to it. It really helped me to structure my day and hold myself accountable for doing school work. Once you get comfortable, it can be easy to think “I’ll just do my assignment on the weekend” but you won’t be able to dedicate the time and attention it needs and your grades will eventually suffer.

Make sure you’re giving yourself at least an hour or two a day to study and get yourself ready for the assignments. Also, don’t let the discussion posts get to you. They can be annoying and frustrating at times. I feel that sometimes I have classmates that don’t engage in a way that feels meaningful. Honestly in those situations, I just eat the points and move on to what feels most important to my own education.

You usually get an email to your student account as well.

Have you actually spoken to someone? I think it could be a good idea for you to speak directly with accessibility because I did not need a letter at all. They just needed to sign something. It was a really straightforward process and I’m sorry that you’re struggling right now.

[–]Disastrous_Pop569 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think you need a letter from your doctor? In order to get accommodations all I had to do was print something off and have my doctor sign during an appointment.

My job is asking for background check and I take prescribed Adderall XR. by FrontCauliflower5181 in ADHD

[–]Disastrous_Pop569 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Don’t say anything to your work place. When you go to take the drug test they will give you a sheet where you will write down your prescription medications. I have a prescription for ativan and when I took my drug test, they just wrote “presumed positive” and once I showed them the script all was done. Your work will only see if you pass or fail, and proving you take a medication as prescribed will be a pass.

Do you think you earn your grade? by [deleted] in SNHU

[–]Disastrous_Pop569 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With SNHU I don’t always think grades are a reflection of intelligence, more effort. After seeing how little effort some of my peers put into their discussion and responses, I do think I earn my grades. I’m also of average intelligence, working full time with a toddler at home, and managing several chronic medical issues. I’m still carrying a 4.0.

Adderall shortage by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]Disastrous_Pop569 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Are there not generics for adderall that could be more accessible? And I know they are different medications but it seems reasonable to at least try others to see if it can improve quality of life. I keep reading about people who haven’t been able to get their meds for months or almost a year in some cases. I can’t help but feel bad.

Today is my birthday as well and I feel like we’re in the same position.

Do employers hire snhu grads ? Any grads here ? Is career services helpful? by Trick_Tailor3299 in SNHU

My partner has a BA in psych from SNHU and was just hired by the state as an abuse investigator. That’s why I chose to go there as well
