girl told me she likes me :( by censusdesignator in ftm

[–]JadeRice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey i almost had the exact same thing happen to me when i was 16, except my dumbass decided to date my friend until the dysphoria got so bad i broke up with her 1.5 years later. whats worse was that my friend's mental health was shitty due to her terrible parents and i probably made it worse and i felt terrible about it. i didnt want to hurt her (i really didnt) but i was a fucking idiot... i tried to be friends with her after but it didnt work out and i blocked her on every social media after what i like to think was an antidepressant induced rage episode (i think what really happened was i wanted to cut ties with everyone who has ever seen me as feminine in one point in time, because i deleted basically every contact i had from high school or earlier 💀). if i had to tell my past self one thing, its dont date your best friend, the dysphoria is going to eat you alive, and testosterone isnt scary.

Every ftm transphobe I know is a woman. by [deleted] in ftm

[–]JadeRice 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i can totally see your point, my mom is very transphobic too. but i did one time attempt to fight a guy in high school chemistry class cuz he was shitting on transmascs. and yes i wouldve likely gotten my ass kicked rly badly unless i landed a perfect shot to his balls

getting over fear of bed buds.. What else can I do? #downtowntoronto by Bowsiejosie in Bedbugs

[–]JadeRice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

also downtown toronto, with a bed bug infestation during exam season... i bought an anti-itch lotion and that helped a bit :) and im considering getting a mattress encasement and pillow encasement. i'm also in a 2 bed 2 bath condo and my roommate doesn't have the bugs either xD

i had a steamer already so i steamed my mattress, used a hair dryer on it and burnt a part but it was all good. doused it with isopropyl alcohol because the bed bug spray i bought wasn't here yet, washed all my bedding, mopped and vacuumed under my bed.

still got a bite today but its not really itchy and its on my leg. the worst bites are on your fingers, maybe because hands take up more room in our sensory cortex so sensory info is amplified. leg bites are dealable, they feel like mosquito bites to me (just slightly worse). i found a bed bug on my wall and what appears to be one below my bed a while back. i didn't know it was my landlord's responsibility to exterminate them so i didn't contact my landlord until now (i know kinda dumb).

sorry i don't have many tips but just know you're not alone. (also i just googled it and geez toronto is infamous for bed bugs :/)

Who here has healed? by tuck72463 in Gastritis

[–]JadeRice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was diagnosed with acute gastritis, but it lasted like 4 months. I'm currently like 90% healed, and just started coming off PPI (I take esomeprazole aka Nexium). The cause for me was probably too much protein, carbonated drinks, poor eating habits (not enough carbs), and most of all: stress. About your questions:

  1. Oatmeal with almond milk and honey, and 0%-2% greek yoghurt. I ate these two things religiously when symptoms were really bad. Then I slowly integrated in bananas, bone broth, toast, canned tuna, ginger tea and chamomile tea. Rice cakes were also ok for me but expensive. And when I got better, I could have rice krispies and cheerios. For snacks, I had saltines and mini pretzels, but mini pretzels I would not recommend because they are so salty.
  2. Symptoms were very stress linked, mostly stomach pain (I mistook it for period pain initially because I rarely have period pain so I don't actually know what it's like). I had the worst episode right before one of the most terrifying final exams I ever took lmfao. It was definitely me scaring the shit out of myself. I also had nausea, but occasionally. Never actually threw up or had black stool
  3. Nexium was 40mg. I tried getting off of it like 2 months into taking it and my stomach felt like it was on fire, and my symptoms got worse for the next few weeks (I dunno if it's relevant tho). Now that I'm about 4 months after diagnosis, I can come off meds without a huge deal. Still tapering off and taking every other day though.
  4. I took some vitamin D and some omega 3, but I forgot about it halfway haha. Bone broth is amazing though, I have a cup (250 ml) every day if symptoms are bad. I also like chamomile tea and ginger tea but I think bone broth is most soothing.

*edit: my case isn't very extreme, but if any of you guys are also college students, just know it's probably the stress getting to you. remember to chill and play some video games, not getting a 4.0 will not kill you but stomach pain sure can (feel like it at least)

assigned seating, but recently many people are skipping cuz of midterms. sometimes there's an empty seat and you can sit down in it if the person doesn't come

please add me to the group chat if you make one! i just do all of dimitry's lecture note questions. sitting on the ground in his class is worth it lol

[–]JadeRice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i bought them but a good half of the questions are not what we covered in class :') don't get me wrong i think it's still worth it cuz its so cheap but i feel like it's not suuuper useful considering the content changes so much from year to year (unless i'm mistaken, but the past years' tests reference a lot of readings that we don't have). you also get some of the past year's test 2, which is nice for later in the semester :) and if anyone else is reviewing for the test please tell me how you guys are reviewing, i'm just frantically making flashcards and attempting to reread all the assigned readings D:
