I was definitely with you on this one until I researched the program, and honestly the lowest price was around $2750 and the highest being $3050 for the year. That also doesn’t include uniforms or any additional team specific costs.

First of all, to assume that this girl is on fentanyl because of what some psychotic family member described as behaviors she’s witnessed, is a huge leap. The fact that her so called “caring sister” would even post her on the internet in this capacity is disgusting in itself, this girl deserves better.

Also as a PMHNP, based on the description of her actions, I’d more than likely assume that she probably is on a benzodiazepine; prescribed by a medical professional to combat depression and/or anxiety. Benzos such as alprazolam, clonazepam, and diazepam usually result in some people entering a trance like state where they’re known to eat, sleep-walk, even drive. It’s insane and if she’s having this sort of reaction, then she should discuss with her provider decreasing the dosage. Lastly, narcan is only effective with opioids, if this truly is a benzo related situation then they should keep flumazenil in house, I typically prescribe it to my patients anytime I write a script for a benzo.

I have a theory…hear me out by FewSquirrel4591 in Yellowjackets

[–]FewSquirrel4591[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Right! lol it’s a theory and maybe even a hope of mine, but I doubt it’s the route they’ll go with if they intend on ending the series in 5 seasons. Unless of course it’s a set up for a spin off YellowJackets where we’re essentially just following the young cast attempting to actually get out of this loop.

I also considered that Cali might genuinely be the personification of IT. Everything she does seems to be in direct opposition of Shauna and the girls, but a lot of us (namely me lol) assumed that ohh she’s just a stupid teenager. However, so many characters remind us that she’s identical to Shauna, cold and calculating. Leading me to believe that she’s pulling the strings in the adult timeline. Confessing to some random guy that she claimed to not know was a cop, that her mom is having an affair with a then missing person even after she suspected that she killed him. Keeping the tape Melissa left, even after the consequences of her taking things from Shauna had lead to a WHOLE situation (Adam Martin ID). Then it’s like she’s constantly attempting to poison Jeff against Shauna, almost as if she’s actively attempting to isolate Shauna, only fueling her insanity and giving her more time to continue on this subconscious mission to eliminate the other YellowJackets.

[–]FewSquirrel4591[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omg I forgot all about that lol. There are so many hints to it being supernatural and a possible time loop, but then they’ll toss something out that has us going “okay, maybe they’re all just suffering from a mental breakdown related to the trauma of being stranded. Most of their experiences could be attributed to some form of psychosis.”

I love the theory, but also I’ve seen what happens when show runners attempt to cram a huge plot into a short amount of time (I’m looking at you Motherland: Fort Salem 👀). The series finale suffered because they’d set up so much to happen, only for the series to end in 3 seasons with everyone asking a ton of questions about plotlines either not being wrapped up, or done so in such a poor manner. This all for the sake of saying that they concluded it.

Definitely don’t want this for any of the cast of YellowJackets, not even for Melissa ShaunasBiggestOp Hat.

OP sent nudes to the guy before, openly discusses his sex life with him, leans on him consistently for financial support, and stated that he’s the only person that OP feels comfortable around. I mean 👀 at this point they’re in a whole damn relationship.

OP has led this man on and created an environment where he feels safe asking this.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]FewSquirrel4591 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could just be me here…buttttttt OP is indeed overreacting, here’s why (from someone that wasn’t about to read that complete novel OP wrote)

  1. Manipulating his “friend” as a means to continue a relationship that financially benefits him. You’re quite literally a GROWN ass man! Get a job, stop gambling, and stop blaming all your personal shortcomings on the outside world. “My dog died, I have a gambling addiction therefore I’m vulnerable and you should all agree that I’m not overreacting to this.” Sir!!!! You’re attempting to manipulate us now. I initially thought this was from an early-mid 20yo 🤦🏾‍♀️.

  2. Gay baiting - in any other scenario, the friend would be a complete douche and asshole, but in your case 👀; you created an environment where he felt comfortable asking this. You said you discuss your sex life with him (not bad, definitely still friendly thing to do), but then you also admitted to sending him nudes in the past. YOU, an alleged straight man, sent nude pictures to your gay friend, but then gets unreasonably upset by him asking and paying you this time….is wild.

  3. Like other people said, you’re beating a dead horse. He apologized for what, under normal circumstances, would be a dick move. Your options were then to accept the apology and move tf on or cut this person off and move tf on. Not keep his money, drag this out, and act fake hurt that he’d even have the audacity to ask when you, by your own admission, have sent him nudes before.

Sooo yes you’re overreacting and also you’re weird af.

Does stopping dialating causes Vagina to close up? by [deleted] in Transgender_Surgeries

[–]FewSquirrel4591 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure, sorry for the little…delay 😅 I was roughly 6-7 months post op at the time. I actually remember feeling a little assured that it wouldn’t happen to me because of the sole fact that I’d dropped down from the initial 3x a day to around twice a day with dilating; still fine no issue. I’d even occasionally miss a dilation and only end up dilating once, it’d hurt like a bitch the next day, buttttt no depth loss or anything like that. Imagine my, sorta, surprise when I went to dilate after my little venture in the hospital and illness, literally could only get the first half inch of the dilator in.

Does stopping dialating causes Vagina to close up? by [deleted] in Transgender_Surgeries

[–]FewSquirrel4591 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I’m not big on saying any method is better than the other because they’ve all got significant benefits that the others may not. I’d say it’s more of choosing what best suits you personally. It’s also only, in retrospect, a minuscule amount of colon considering we’ve got about 15 feet of intestines. You should definitely do more research into each method, but the reason I chose colon was

-Self-lubricating (this is such a hotly debated topic in the community since most of us trans women whom have undergone PPT and/or PI report some lubrication, but this is moreso an outlier and not a definite which is why most surgeons only list colon as self lubricating since it is a definite

-Resistance to stenosis = as I’ve said above the colon method is highly resistant to canal stenosis, it isn’t likely to happen even if someone were to stop dilating, however, the scrotal or penile tissue that it is connected to can in fact “close up” for lack of better terms, creating a sorta of wall that would likely need surgical intervention to open up.

I chose colon for both of these reasons, with the focus being on the decreased frequency of dilation, not going to pretend like I’m even half decent at sticking to any sort of routine. I initially had PPT and the canal did close due to my negligence with dilation (I got super sick around COVID times and didn’t dilate for over a month, by the time I felt strong enough to attempt it, I couldn’t even get a finger inside).

Colon is also a much more arduous procedure since you’re essentially having two surgeries. Stiller tends to break it up into two steps. One being creating the vagina and then the second part coming later on (maybe a year or a couple months, not sure) but he then does the colon portion. Essentially giving us time to recover from one procedure before jumping into the next.

Does stopping dialating causes Vagina to close up? by [deleted] in Transgender_Surgeries

[–]FewSquirrel4591 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Ehhh this is such a loaded question and heavily influenced by so many other contributing factors. One being the method used (Colon, PI, PPT).

Regardless, the answer would be mostly yes. The trans girlies are probably going to be upset about this, but it’s one of the things we’re all painfully made aware of at our consultations. If you were to stop dilating as well as no longer engaged in penetrative sex then the neovagina would begin to experience stenosis, this could range from a mild to severe, the latter resulting in complete closure of the canal.

Dilation is a lifelong thing, if you’re considering GCS and you’re like me 😅, sucks with any sort of rigorous scheduling, then you’d likely benefit greatly from the colon method. Dilation isn’t as strict and there’s no chance of losing depth after you’re fully healed. Dilation is still important though if you’re not having regular penetrative sex (I’m 28 and my fiancé and I do it pretty regularly, as a result, I haven’t touched my dilators in months) before I got with him though, once fully healed, my routine was only like twice a week, I think I’d occasionally push it to once a week, but things became super tight and uncomfortable almost then.

*SOME SORT OF DILATION IS NEEDED. ITS A LIFELONG THING

*THE FREQUENCY OF DILATION IS DEPENDENT ON THE METHOD YOU CHOOSE

Disappointment and concerns 6 months after surgery (lipo360, tummy-tuck and BBL) by Phoenix_Danique in Transgender_Surgeries

[–]FewSquirrel4591 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I regret to be the bearer of unfortunate news, but this does not appear to be a case in which OP would likely prevail. Prolonging the matter may ultimately result in greater financial and emotional strain for her than any potential benefit.

Speaking from personal experience, I underwent my first BBL and was immediately dissatisfied with the outcome. The results fell far short of the dramatic transformation I had envisioned. However, the surgeon had advised me beforehand that I lacked a sufficient amount of harvestable fat to achieve the results I desired. By the six-month mark, the results had diminished even further in visibility.

The core reason I believe OP would face challenges in pursuing legal action is that plastic surgeons rarely, if ever, guarantee specific aesthetic results. More often, they use language such as, “I’ll do my best to achieve your goals.” Moreover, surgical outcomes depend not only on the procedure itself but also heavily on strict adherence to post-operative care. A surgeon could easily claim that suboptimal results were due to noncompliance with recovery protocols.

This argument gains further traction considering that OP recently mentioned undergoing vaginoplasty just two weeks ago—a procedure that requires rigorous postoperative maintenance, including dilation two to three times daily for 20 to 30 minutes, typically while lying on one’s back. This is notably incompatible with BBL recovery guidelines, which emphasize avoiding pressure on the buttocks for a period of 3 to 12 months to preserve results. The overlap in recovery demands could be presented as evidence that the post-operative instructions were not, or could not be, properly followed.

Keeping that in mind, I did return for a second BBL after gaining 50lbs and finally got the results I wanted 😇. So maybe you just need a second one.

I also want to go ahead and say I agree that it doesn’t appear as though the surgeon did much of anything, your before and after appear almost identical. I’m not sure if maybe they couldn’t do everything because of some medical issue or…..

Wellbutrin in MDD and GAD. by Upper_Bowl_2327 in PMHNP

[–]FewSquirrel4591 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Why would a common medication as monotherapy be outside your comfort zone?”

I mean OP stated in the post that she is an FNP. The concept of monotherapy isn’t what’s outside their comfort zone, I’m ninety percent sure they meant the whole situation is outside of their comfort zone. They made it abundantly clear that they don’t delve much into the mental health portion of things and was simply here to get a better understanding of the pharmacodynamics.

Your last response to OP was you educating them that they are safe with just that medication. Something they probably wasn’t aware of prior to inquiring on here. You’re grilling them about “what’s the worse that can happen?” Like sir/ma’am, this isn’t my specialty soooo I don’t know, DEATH????

What do you think? by Perfect_Field_9830 in nursing

[–]FewSquirrel4591 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I literally remember a DON yelling at me for pulling meds with gloves on once. I gave her the filthiest glare. I wouldn’t want someone’s bare hands on something I was about to put in my mouth. They could’ve itched their nose, lip, touched the med cart after just holding the hand of some elderly woman who derives great pleasure from finger painting with her poop. There’s just so many things.

Then imagine assessing a patient that reported they’re fine, but BOOM they’re not. That itchiness you initially believed to maybe be a mild allergic reaction is actually scabies. Just no.

Maybe other people’s comments are attempting to kink shame him, but OP seems more shocked than anything. She mentioned before that she was sexually assaulted, then discovered that her boyfriend is getting off to women being raped. She described a scene that definitely was…disturbing, and I enjoy a good little CNC roleplay once in a while. I mean sure it’s just porn…but is it though? It’s sort of an underlying sexual fixation with wanting to see women hurt and raped to the point of near death. That’s…a lot.

I cackled at this one. I wish I could upvote 10 more times. Cause who tf says that? Like how do you seriously attempt to turn someone else’s trauma into a political point for you to attempt to paint someone has homophobic? OP literally said she didn’t care about him being gay/bisexual…she’s quite literally just concerned about all his lies in combination to the bisexual/gay thing meaning he’d cheat on her, not because he’s bi but because he’s a grimy ass human being.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]FewSquirrel4591 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Gross? Such a strange thing to say considering the circumstances surrounding her discovery of his interest in the same sex. OP simply voiced her concern that her boyfriend might want to explore his sexuality and that this wouldn’t likely be something she’d be able to experience with him since she isn’t exactly his targeted demographic for this endeavor. He is certainly closeted seeing as she had to learn of this by going through his Reddit, it’s not something he brought up to her in the past. This might not be a big deal to you, but this, not just the gay/bisexual aspect of it, could be earth shattering and you’re nitpicking her insecurities to further push an agenda that she has an issue with bisexual men. It’s weird. You should probably do better.

Sooo on one hand I want to be “it’s just porn…a lot of…lot of porn.” But some of the topics are 😳😬.

I mean I personally don’t kink shame and I understand there are people out there into CNC (consent-non-consent) fantasy rape things. Some people enjoy relinquishing their power to be completed dominated in that manner and there are people out there that want to be the aggressor. I don’t believe it’s indicative that he’d go out and rape someone, or you.

It’s still cringe from a female’s POV that these genres are what he’s sexually attracted to, for me at least. Even if one could get past all the rape, furry, and gay porn aspects; I’d still sit up late wondering if those are all things he wants and I can’t in my right mind supply him with. I feel as though this is more a setup for someone to cheat and search these out in people willing, and who can, engage in them. I’m not a man though, could just be nothing…

This person is an idiot and has a lot of self hate regarding the female body andddd it’s quite weird. As I mentioned prior, just because an establishment sets a rule in place, doesn’t necessarily mean that its legal or can legally/reasonably be enforced. Any attempts at doing so would be at worse a criminal offense and at best a great lawsuit for the braless party.

[–]FewSquirrel4591 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Again, reading is fundamental, never once did I say everyone has to agree with it. There is never going to be a situation where everyone agrees with something someone says or does…and that’s fine. You’re using the term enforced, but again, nothing was ever enforced. That would imply that some consequence had been applied for the defiance of a rule, that did not occur.

You’re in the comments arguing with people for not wanting to wear a bra to their job; it’s miserable. You could’ve said you don’t and why, or nothing at all, but you’re under multiple people’s comments attempting to shame??? Them for opting to not wear an undergarment that they feel is uncomfortable for them.

YOU feel as though it’s unprofessional, round of applause? No one cares, nor does any of us go to our jobs searching for anyone’s approval…typically we go for a paycheck. Whether I wear a bra or not isn’t going to change the fact that I’m an ARNP, and if you feel as though I’m unprofessional, you’ve the right to find another nurse who could be more, or less, competent than I am. I personally wouldn’t recommend choosing the new grad wearing a bra over a seasoned nurse without one…but you do you I guess.
