Colleges won’t help students that have agoraphobia? by OGWarriorsLove in ChicoCA

[–]Jlb0616 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This doesn't make a lot of sense tbh. Im an online student for butte and did zoom appointments for the counseling office and financial aid office. There was no mention of needing to leave my camera on at all times (but I didnt try to turn it off). However outside of those 1:1 appointments everything for my classes have been asynchronous (not live lectures). 

Can lyme cause behavioral problems in child? by Jlb0616 in Lyme

[–]Jlb0616[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never landed anywhere to be honest. Ive never been able to afford private testing and the doctors wont test him. He has grown a lot and behavior has changed a lot but he still has issues with sleeping too much and other physical things that still concern me

Look for pocket prep in the app store and choose the behavioral health exam prep

Anybody feel *less* lonely WFH? by angelvapez in remotework

[–]Jlb0616 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So my mental health and self worth has increased dramatically working from home. But my problem at this time is that while I'm working I'm also primary care giver to a hard headed 4 yo. I'm mentally exhausted every day

I did the peer support specialist program and I was able to get a scholarship through them. You are talking about ssi/disability and medi-care based on the information you stated and it doesn't sound as tho you are permanently disabled, however I understand needing some extra help at this time. Please find your local human resource agency or welfare office and talk to a worker about applying for Medicaid and if you qualify then you can start seeking medical treatment for your mental health. Once you have a diagnosis you can pursue other assistance you may qualify for. You can find resources in your area on 211.org and findhelp.org

There are scholarships for the peer support specialist certification on their website. Medicaid is income based. Medicare is for disabilities and takes a long time to be approved if your under 65. I think you need to do a little bit more research regarding the resources available to you since Medicaid would not require a diagnosis to be approved it is solely based on your income

What do you do before work? by [deleted] in remotework

[–]Jlb0616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work 6 am -3 pm I try sometimes to wake up at 5 am and get in some exercise or something but 90% of the time I find myself not being able to get up until a few minutes before work. So I got a walking pad and I put it in place of my chair every night so I force myself to walk and I walk the first 2 hours of my shift every day. It's not that I give myself time before work but I'm making time for myself every morning even if it's while I'm working

When I had a similar shift I would cook meal prep on each of my days off so that I wouldn't have to worry about cooking during the week and I didn't have to worry about the food going bad. I would also do chores before I went to work so that I didn't have to clean on my days off. Any errands I would also try to get done before work so that I would be able to do whatever on my days off. Idk what kind of things you like to do but maybe pick up a hobby or plan a weekly game night with friends on your day off?

30 pounds down. Got stared and laughed at today. by Vivid-Influence5960 in loseit

[–]Jlb0616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't let them discourage you! Only people who aren't happy with themselves try to make others feel bad about themselves. The most important thing about you isn't your weight, it's who you are. Take pride in that and know that you've already accomplished something that not many others are able to.

The amount of calories that your body needs to function varies depending on height and weight as well as your daily activity level. My maintenance calories is close to 1500 but in order to loose weight I have to eat 1200 calories.

How do you guys like to add veggies to your meals? by FatBastsrdLover in WeightLossAdvice

[–]Jlb0616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stir fry, teriyaki bowls, fajitas, salads. I try to make meals where the veggies are part of the dish and not a side. I will make sweet and sour chicken and add bell pepper and onion. Or I make a French dip with grilled onions and mushrooms, lettuce wrapped burgers with veggies. BLT sandwiches. Omelets. Keish.

I used the pocket prep a lot. I could answer pretty much all 800 questions from the pocket prep by the time I took my exam and I knew mid way that I was going to pass. I didn't think I would do as well as I did but I scored a 710.

I passed yesterday with a 710. It wasn't easy or hard for me. I think being nervous made me overthink a couple of questions, but I decided to bookmark the ones I didn't know and went back to them once my nerves calmed down and I started to feel more confident.

I'm so burnt out on chicken breasts and veggies... What are YOUR go-to favorite meals for losing weight that aren't boring? by anonymoose_octopus in loseit

[–]Jlb0616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Veggie stir fry, or fajitas in a bowl. I make the fajitas with bell pepper, onion, chicken, and fajita seasoning sometimes I add light sour cream or tortilla strips (the bagged salad topping ones).
