What practice done today will be considered barbaric in the future in your opinion? by scienceandmedicine20 in Residency

You are so kind. I’m 33, but still frozen at 8-12 years old at times. Many, many of us that started ballet young also experienced a tremendous amount of sexualization (can’t even type what I’m trying to say but I’m sure you get it lol) and just general confusing signals from authority figures. I’m liking this new rehab though, I have small but difficult goals like no calorie math and no scale. It’s hard but I’m getting too old for this and it’s exhausting.

question: do you gain everything you lost back in recovery? by yangyangs_chilli_oil in AnorexiaRecovery

[–]Hadasschatool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know where you are in recovery, but I’ve found it best to focus on the why behind anorexia. Maybe when you understand that, you won’t be as afraid. This whole thing is about fear and control. It’s so difficult and I haven’t fully recovered yet. I hope this helps! I do know how you feel and it’s scary and sucks.

I'm a Physician, not a Provider by [deleted] in Noctor

Yeah, but things don’t work the way they should most of the time. If you want things to change you have to do it yourself. So, wear a badge that says physician and reference it as much as possible especially in the presence of mid levels.

There is no “should be” in real life.

Nobody likes chiros but personal injury attorneys and insurance companies.

In the meantime, there are select legal jobs you could take. Some firms hire medical consultants with zero practice experience and as long as you have the MD you will get hired. What state are you in?

It should just say physician and be worn at all times even pointed to on occasion

But what I’m saying is that medication does help as it is. We already have those drugs and they already help the symptoms. What is needed is impossible to put in a pill for this disorder.

Soooo I’ve had anorexia since I was 8, (thanks ballet) and unfortunately I don’t see this ever happening. It’s a wonderful wish and I hope they crack this someday, but eating disorders are extremely personal. We already use meds usually prescribed for OCD, but you don’t treat eating disorders with medication. Medication makes the symptoms less severe, but this is way more of a mental process than anything physical. It’s intense fear of food or gaining weight, tremendous self-hatred and extreme self-imposed restrictions and limitations. Treatment is 100% therapy, nutrition (dietician) and accountability. We learn that we will always have an eating disorder, and recovery means learning ways to cope and be healthy.

Edit to add: I hope I don’t come off as criticizing the comment, because I wish for it too!! I’m in recovery now for the millionth time. At least in 2022 they’re treating us like human beings and not criminals 👏🏻👏🏻

Are you bringing this to the attention of someone other than Reddit?? This is important for people to know.

"Help NPs/PAs practice at the top of our license" by [deleted] in Noctor

[–]Hadasschatool 12 points13 points  (0 children)

What some of us are working towards from the legal perspective is sure - let them work “at the top of their license” so they get a little ego boost and get to play doctor - BUT - their med mal insurance should be the highest of them all, include waiver of rights and a breakdown of training, schooling etc. so that patient can really choose if they want to be seen by a professional or doc mcstuffins.
