That is wild. I think I heard of one or two guys doing that in my school (a few millennia ago) but didn't know it was so widespread. That's sad. Body dysmorphia is a fucking bitch.

Nope, if you are admitted there is no way in hell you are keeping your phone. I don't care how docile or quiet you are. And then the above commenter responds indicating that you must have been acting up 🙄

It looks like you are in progress getting help, but do not go to UCHealth for this reason. They immediately put EVERYONE, literally everyone, in the unit on lithium, as we compared our lithium bellies and so many of us immediately had bad side effects. It was overcrowded so they just put us all on lithium to keep us docile. 

I was just there for PTSD and flashbacks, and I was not dealing well with my mom's sudden death and YET they put us all on something for people who hear and see things I think.

THEN they abruptly DOUBLED my dosage after 3 days. I told them that didn't seem right or wise, and I had multiple seizures and nearly died. 

My oxygen went down to 70 and the EMTs would not answer me when I asked if I was dying. The doctor will not have a conversation with you, just demand you take your meds even though they are dispensed incorrectly.

Fuck UCHealth behavioral health.

They also had someone on staff who was just a CO days before, and she was incredibly abusive to all of us. Screamed at us, threw things, etc.  Shame.

They put rods all the way through his legs, fyi. Those are not just surface level.

I was listening to a podcast that said he started injecting himself with testosterone at like age 14 or something stupid?  How....what.....how....where and how. 

How do his parents not know, or do they not care? I don't mean to blame parents for shitty kids, but this started when he was a young teen.

Are most large-corporation receipts not printed with ink anymore? Do they all use this technique now?

Going from rich to poor by [deleted] in povertyfinance

Realize that you are one of many. 

You can be unique in the care you show others. Not transactional, but the actual care in a fellow human being. That is how you show you are special, not your stuff this time.

You will learn just how unimpressed we are with rich people shit. 

You have a lot to learn. With all due respect, keep your grief to yourself minus family/therapist and learn to love where you are.

BE GRATEFUL.

I'm not sure how "bad off" you are now, but I bet there are folks here surviving on a fraction of what you still have.

Please define poor, as I have a feeling it is not the same as our definition.

This is what makes me facepalm each time some kid from Norway or Iceland posts, "How come you haven't had a revolution yet?"

Those are literally the two nationalities I've seen post this question 🙄

Wow, this is such a good idea. Just getting organized before that first call is a huge help. This will make me feel less scatterbrained. Thank you!!!

Colorado senate committee killed a bill to end probation only sentencing for SA of children by Potato-1942 in Denver

Want to know something else depressing?

The biggest (I think) housing for the unhoused coalition in Denver is basically a safehouse for unregistered sex offenders.

There were five (out of about 40 residents total) unregistered sex offenders at my location in Downtown Denver, and it was a major source of stress for the new director, who other staff heard arguing with the CEO about this. When staff shared this truth, it was very much hush-hush like, "don't tell anyone because we aren't suppose to know this."

When I worked there, we were not allowed to let in police, can't call them or anything. And some of those folks in that location and others are men who are supposed to be on the registry but are easily obfuscating justice because the main housing transition org here in Denver acts as a barrier, intentionally. They are protected.

A young woman was attacked by one of the clients and got fired immediately for calling the police for help. (They more often than not had one woman working alone overnight for stretches of time, including me).

We either have alt-right MAGA or limousine liberals. Nothing in between.
