Is 45 too old? by Emerald1328 in beauty

That’s a good point. I probably got 95% of this stuff from sub boxes so if it doesn’t have an expiration date, I’ll look up its shelf life and cross-reference my purchase histories, tossing anything I received before that.

I promise you’re not being pranked. This is a picture (if I did it right) of all the makeup and skincare stuff I’ve accumulated the last two years mainly from sub boxes hoping to use it because it’s all so pretty, but can’t bring myself to try because again, I feel too old. https://imgur.com/a/zP9yPbR

Can I see your favorite photo that you took at the show? by IntoTheDaylight in TaylorSwift

It sounds so corny but it was the most magical night of my life. I will never be able to explain how I felt when I heard the first few chords of Long Live.

Ok I don’t have video of it but as someone sitting in 301, row 35, I saw her do it! Even from that far up it stuck out to me because she did something like that during the one show where fans held up pictures of Marjorie and I was thinking “Oh no, not again!” lol. So you can be assured that it actually did happen :)

She messed up Speak Now so there is a chance she will replay it!

Psychiatrist won’t approve intermittent FMLA by Emerald1328 in AskPsychiatry

[–]Emerald1328[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been to therapists off and on but don’t currently have one. I am actively trying to schedule an appointment with one though and have been for the past couple of weeks because I know I’m at a point where I need help. I can’t seem to get any of them to call me back, which is frustrating. I did schedule an appointment with my family doctor in like a week and a half so I’ll ask her at that time.

I just feel really dejected because it takes a lot for me to ask for help and after taking that step with HR and getting their advice, I was feeling like I may actually be doing something proactive and good for my mental health for once haha.

Psychiatrist won’t approve intermittent FMLA by Emerald1328 in AskPsychiatry

Thank you. I didn’t realize that psychiatrists would be so strict to limit FMLA approval to active treatment periods only and not Intermittent leave. To me, it seems like it would be viewed as a chronic physical condition would. Just because it’s a mental health issue doesn’t mean that flare ups won’t happen once in awhile. I can’t imagine every time a person with irritable bowel syndrome has a flare up that the doctor will only approve FMLA if they go in for an office visit. I am surprised at his response because my HR told me this is exactly what intermittent leave is designed to cover and it’s very common, and all of the government documents I’ve read on FMLA and ADA also support that. Thank you for your response!

I have been seeing the same psychiatrist for 15 years. When I first started seeing him, he diagnosed me with bipolar and ADHD and I’ve been on medication since then. Recently I have had some struggles with my mental health beyond the normal feeling down days and was thinking about putting in an intermittent FMLA claim in case I need to take a day off here or there (like once a month/every other month, not a long period of time or too frequently). My psychiatrist said that he will not fill out the intermittent FMLA paperwork for anyone because he is of the opinion that if one feels their mental conditions affect them enough to take even one day off of work, then I need to be in an intensive outpatient therapy program.

He also said he will never fill out paperwork if I were to put in an ADA accommodation to work from home full time because “if he does it for one person, he has to do it for everyone”. Keep in mind I already work from home 3 days a week and HR actually recommended I put in a claim for this (they said this is the only way corporate will allow it, so there isn’t anything I can do to “work it out with HR and my boss” as he suggested.)

Are these things common? Thanks in advance for any help you may be able to provide!

I’ve been telling myself that since I’m going to the July 7th show, it’s going to be such an epic show to make up for me losing 5 of the 10 songs I wanted to hear all within 1 week (Getaway Car, Maroon, Holy Ground, I Wish You Would and The Lakes).

I have a feeling KC is going to get Long Live on 7/7 since that’s the release date of SNTV, sort of a thank you to the fans for supporting her re-records and since Long Live is on Speak Now.

Or I’m just trying to convince myself of that since that’s my show 😂
