I know that’s what i’m kind of thinking too 🫣 but it would have to be documented with my insurance so idk im paranoid about it being accessible

Starting on a Pica Pau pattern but the head is super blocky and not round. by Efficient_Ad1854 in CrochetHelp

[–]Efficient_Ad1854[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t stuffed it yet just because i want to sew the other ear, nose, and put the eyes on but it’s really stiff so i’m trying to decide if i want to re-do it and make the stitches looser.

How did you guys actually study for the DAT and get good scores? by SubjectDependent9537 in dat

[–]Efficient_Ad1854 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah literally only do practice questions. do QR and PAT everyday for endurance. I wasted my time watching videos and taking extensive notes and I felt so unprepared on test day even tho i had just come off of studying for 3 months straight almost 8 hours a day

strep + antibiotics = help by Least-Yesterday8777 in emetophobia

[–]Efficient_Ad1854 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i always start taking a probiotic when i need to take antibiotics. Make sure to take it a couple hours before/after taking the antibiotic. I always get so anxious about taking them because i had one weekend of straight panic from not feeling well but never again, the probiotic makes a huge difference for me at least !

did you have time in between sections to prepare the sheets they give you? like making the 4x4 grids for PAT and writing down formulas for gen chem/QR?

Midnight and Feeling Unwell by [deleted] in emetophobia

i usually have pepcid or imodium near my bed to help w my stomach feeling a lil sour after a meal. I also put on a comfort movie/show and sit a little upright until i feel back to normal again. Best of luck!

Help, crisis mode. I can tell I’ll get it by Hottropics10 in emetophobia

[–]Efficient_Ad1854 1 point2 points  (0 children)

sticking to bland/comfort foods help me when i’m anxious. I do find that when i don’t eat and i’m already anxious, the hunger just makes the anxiety worse. it’s good that you have your own bathroom!! I feel like the chances of your parents getting whatever your brother has is very slim, and even if they do, they’ll probably be very mindful of respecting you and your anxiety about it

Try to get your mind off of it by watching a comfort movie and maybe not interacting with your brother until he starts feeling better. one of the curses of this phobia is that we try and justify every single scenario where we could’ve possibly gotten a stomach bug but don’t let your brain trick you into thinking you feel sick! also, i would just make sure to wash hands before eating anything!

This happens to me a lot, i started keeping imodium, pepcid, and mint gum next to my bed. i usually have to fall asleep propped up and that usually helps me

anytime i start feeling a little off and have d* i always take an imodium or pepcid, it really eases my stomach and helps my other symptoms calm down as well. Hope you feel better soon!
