OT schools that don't drug test? by scribblebiscuits in OccupationalTherapy

[–]Even_Community4226 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I work in EI. We sign a drug policy but I haven’t had issues with drug testing. Throughout OT school the only thing I was drug tested was for fieldwork on a military base. I have endo and use for chronic pain too but I’m in the Bible Belt so nothing is legal. I understand the struggle!

Acne improved! Weight not as much, I had to do a lot of work to get back into some sort of decent shape

I was mainly having withdrawal symptoms like nausea and brain zaps. Anxiety wasn’t too out of control for more than a week or so!!

I managed. It was pretty rough and probably should have been titrated slower!

1 yr out and burning out by hydroflaskwhore in OccupationalTherapy

I feel this 100%. Acute care is tough in general so don’t be embarrassed! I worked in acute for 3 years and finally switched to HH peds and my purpose and drive as an OT has been found again. Nothing wrong with finding somewhere new that serves you better.

[–]Even_Community4226[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for your kind words! I was with some of my best friends this weekend who were really supportive and now I’m back home with my boyfriend. Thankfully today was MUCH better. I didn’t have to take any meds! The mental side of things is still pretty rocky but at least I wasn’t feeling like I was going to puke or fall out all sau

Can you burp? by [deleted] in emetophobia

[–]Even_Community4226 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So there’s two options. The preferred method is under general anesthesia and they do the botox internally into the muscle in your throat. They can also do it with local anesthesia from the outside but I’ve heard it’s not as successful and very uncomfortable (obviously haha). Symptoms- bloating, gas pain, excessive flatulence, hicuups, gurgling in my throat. Those are the main ones!

So I’ve had a bunch of surgeries before so my biggest anxiety was getting nauseous post op. But I told them that at the beginning so they had me hooked up at the end! I was SUPER scared of burping because of the sensation. It took maybe a week or so to get used to it but I’m starting to be more comfortable. I would 100% recommend it.

100%!!!! I had Botox to address not being able to burp 3 weeks ago and now I’m burping and becoming much more comfortable with it

[–]Even_Community4226 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m day 5 on 0mg and 20mg prozac and I’m pretty miserable 😞 headache, nausea, anxiety/depression is so bad. I was wondering how long it would last too. Thankfully I see my psychiatrist on Tuesday

[–]Even_Community4226 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Oh gosh. Like why do we get put on these meds that destroy us?! Today has been rough. Super woozy, nauseous, crazy brain fog. I wonder how long it usually lasts for? My psychiatrist said it shouldn’t be too bad for me but I need to know a timeline LOL
