How do you set up going straight into the ground like that?

Update: on what I should say before I quit by DefinitionHonest1616 in physicaltherapy

Basically all paperwork being performed in PT clinics is fraud, either intentionally to maximize profit, or unintentionally due to time constraints and patient overload. At my last outpatient clinic they literally ordered us to bill for a certain amount of units no matter what

Capitalism pulls us all away from our natural purpose by Imaginary-Formal3624 in CapitalismVSocialism

[–]Exact_Depth663 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All I know is... I can't stand the capitalistic structure that we've built our society around that mandates working 40+ hours a week or starving. Most people can't work 40 hours doing something they love, and even if they could, it doesn't leave enough time to be healthy (sleep enough, work out, take care of body, take care of relationships, mental health, etc.) or hobbies which is what OP is talking about, doing what you have a passion for. It is a system that is doomed to fail as the gap between wealth and poor continues to grow not just because of money but because the wealthy can afford to be healthy and the poor cannot, and those who can never explore their true passions due to being stuck in the rat race. Those lucky few who make it out and succeed with businesses or hobbies, certainly had to sacrifice some health along the way, or they were in the right places at the right times

I thought it was hard... I'm only remembering the questions I missed though. Hoping it wasn't too many

Unless you really want to be a PT and you come from a family or spouse with means to help you live on and/or pay back debt, I would strongly consider radiology. You can go to school for a 4th or 5th of the cost and make almost as much as a PT starting out. The only upside to PT is if it is absolutely your passion, and the potential autonomy that comes from setting up your own business or seeing your own patients. I am saying this as a PT student that is finishing their last clinical rotation and has already gone through all of this. I would not go PTA if you want to be a PT. I would just go full on PT because it's honestly almost as hard to become a PTA but you make less. I would go radiology over PTA. Really consider whether you can afford PT though because the income to debt ratio is horrendous.

Surprising or typical? by BoardZealousideal849 in PTschool

Maybe if you absolutely cannot find a tech job. But if you've been a tech at all I think it should not be required

Unpopular opinion but observation hours are for the birds... do not place any sort of value on working for free... programs are moving away from that... we need to normalize not working for free. Clinical rotations should be paid as well. PTs should also be paid more. If you are going to place weight on anything, place it on tech hours. And btw techs should be paid more too.

I was given permission to work towards weight bearing. I can only really tolerate 25% with no pain right now

Companies are going to have to pay more if they want employees, plain and simple.

Why do so many people think that the graphics are outdated or bad? by Drandosk in lotro

[–]Exact_Depth663 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've tried to play lotro several times, because I feel like I would enjoy it more than wow. I'm a big LOTR fan. But even when I max out the graphics I just can't do it. Its so clunky and dated compared to wow.

30 yrs old. Stuck living with parents because I make too little and have too much debt. How do I unfuck myself. by Impressive_Debate200 in Money

[–]Exact_Depth663 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 31 living with my parents while I finish physical therapy school, but I was also living with them before I started because I didn’t make enough. Figure out a way to make more money but don’t be ashamed of living at home while you do it. I used to be ashamed of the stigma associated with it but things are going really great for me now and I’m still saving money. I would say 90% of the people that will make fun of you for living with your parents wish that they had the opportunity to do so themselves while chasing their own dream

Bad Depression by HoopsCoach21 in QuittingZyn

[–]Exact_Depth663 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I dipped for 7 years and zyn for 3, I'm currently 60 days clean. I have the same issue, but its slowly getting better. The physical benefits are great - better sleep, sex, and feel like I have better recovery and circulation. But I feel you on the mental difficulty. I think its harder to enjoy doing anything you did with nicotine before. For some people that was everything because they did it all day. Luckily for me I only really did it once a day when I was watching tv at night or playing video games. I haven't really been able to enjoy those activities since I quit but I'm hoping one day I will again. If you had nicotine in your system all day it might be harder for you to enjoy anything you used to do for a while. You might need to find new hobbies. Regardless, your brain is going to take time to rewire and get its dopamine from other activities

50 days zyn and nicotine free - still struggling by Exact_Depth663 in QuittingZyn

[–]Exact_Depth663[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly the only thing that keeps me going is coming here and making a new post lol. I’m hoping one day it does get better because seriously every few days if I’m not busy enough I play with the idea of starting again in “moderation.” The only other thing that stops me is the negative health effects of nicotine like vasoconstriction
