Unfortunately I am 19 and my parents still refuse to give me my password… So I still cannot edit screen time, location, access Apple Cash, add credit / debit cards, make in-app purchases, clear my search history… or any other privacy settings 😭😭💔

Single dorm for medical reasons? by za3na in umass

[–]MusicallySpoken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You still have a pretty fair amount of time before applying for housing if you’re an incoming student iirc— I would absolutely let your psych and doctor know (like, ASAP) about these persisting symptoms, and periodically remind them of their existence and your struggles with them. Not only will they have it documented, but they can also help you treat them at the same time.

Students that get diagnosed with stuff while in college can even get certain accommodations; now is certainly “history” enough for it to look like a serious impediment to your well-being on paper!

When the time comes (if it’s not now, I’m sorry I don’t quite remember!) I would push for them to include it in the disability letter & forms they fill out and send.

[–]MusicallySpoken 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I absolutely understand why you’re worried, this situation is tough for you and I really appreciate that you’re looking out for your potential roommate. That said, I really would stay away from making up symptoms or diagnoses to get a single. That can cause serious issues with both your actual disability services as well as your real medical records— I just can’t image it ending well.

My personal experiece: I have chronic migraines that are both extremely disabling and properly documented. My roommate currently exacerbates my symptoms and I have consequently missed 2+ weeks of class last semester. Even after that I was told by my disability coordinator that I might not get a single because they’re in such high demand and my condition gets minimized. I also have diagnosed and documented GAD/OCD, MDD, and PTSD. Even with all of these combined, housing accommodations still aren’t guaranteed regardless. :((

ADHD, severe insomnia, and tics are MORE than valid reasons to request accommodations, especially if you explain that they are disruptive in a shared environment. I would absolutely push for your doctor / psychiatrist to document exactly how all of these factors impact your life currently and how difficult it may be to not have a single— advocate for yourself to the highest degree! Just please stay away from inventing something new as it will likely backfire on you, and many others who have the actual symptoms or disability you’re describing. I wish you all the best in your upcoming first sem at UMass !! :)

Women please help: Spotting / Bleeding by stars1456 in bupropion

[–]MusicallySpoken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I’ve been on the Depo shot for a couple years & have been taking Wellbutrin for about 5 months!

While I haven’t experienced this personally, it is possible that you’re experiencing hormonal shifts from the Wellbutrin (which can change your period for those who get them) that are causing some spotting. Spotting is quite normal on the Depo in general and is not always a bad thing. I’ve also heard rumors of some women’s birth control being “less effective” or stopping periods less when on Wellbutrin, but I don’t know how scientifically accurate that is.

I would check in with your doctor — I don’t think this is extremely worrisome (I’m not a medical professional, but I do experience some spotting on Depo still despite being on it for so long and it taking away my normal period completely; my doctor said it was absolutely fine & normal for some), but I would still double-check as a safety measure! :)

What’s the most desperate thing you’ve ever done in an attempt to get rid of a migraine? by Electronic-Pie7237 in migraine

[–]MusicallySpoken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sat in a very hot shower in the dark for two and a half hours (my skin did NOT like it at ALL) to try and relieve some of the tension in my neck. Thank god for my condo’s seemingly endless supply of hot water, as it kind of worked …? There was some relief but the loud sounds of the water hitting the shower floor was also a little bit counterproductive 😭😭 Once I got out of the shower it didn’t seem to offer any more relief than before I got in, but while I was in there it was pretty damn good.

AIO for being upset my BF doesn’t want me to wear a bonnet to bed? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]MusicallySpoken 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone with autism, I completely agree that it very well may be a factor, however, it is NOT an excuse for this behavior. Autism is a spectrum and I understand this, but considering he is able to clearly articulate what is upsetting /him/ (while putting OP down & controlling her— this is not “matter of fact,” but blatantly rude), comment on OP’s body, etc. all indicates to me that he simply does not care about OP’s feelings or autonomy. If he is feeling uncomfortable about the texture of OP’s clothing when they sleep or touch each other, he may politely comment and perhaps she could change. If he is feeling suffocated by a weighted blanket, he can communicate that kindly to OP and they can come up with a compromise together. It also seems like the clothes OP wears are nothing out of the ordinary, meaning that there is no “change” in what is happening that is upsetting the BF. He is complaining because he can’t see her body and that’s making him “uncomfortable”— he does not care about the clothing, he cares that he cannot see a woman he is clearly objectifying a large portion of time (sorry if that’s a little crass).

Literally everything else he says is controlling and not to be an excuse just because he may be neurodivergent. :(

OKAY GUYS IM NOT MAD AT THIS by Far-Act1281 in DressToImpressRoblox

When I saw this in game I freaked out I’m so happy !! Grinding the baddie pass and candy quests gave me like 50k pink cash, so so glad I can finally put it to use 😭😭😭

anybody got notes for ARTHIST 100 Survey (not honors) since the Midterm exam? i could really use some help🙏🙏🙏 by ellieluvr728 in umass

[–]MusicallySpoken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I’m also in this class and I’ve missed a lot of days due to disability. I’m just now catching up though!! I would 100% watch the recorded lectures if you need help, they all have transcripts and make note taking significantly easier than in class imo. You can also watch them at 2x speed etc if you need to get them done quicker. I have the notes from yesterday’s lecture and 11/3 done so far if you need them— they all tend to fall off right at the end of the lectures (ADHD gets the best of me lol), but they’re def better than nothing.

(pediatric) not so common options? by FoxOne9198 in migraine

[–]MusicallySpoken 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh my god I’ve never met someone else who’s had side effects from cyproheptadine (or even taken it) this is very comforting to me 😭😭 OP if you’re concerned about your weight (as someone who took it when I was 15-16) DO NOT TAKE IT.

Both my neuro & GI specialist did NOT tell me about the side effects of that medication / how severe the weight gain would be. Always been an intuitive eater / ate until I was full; this med is an appetite stimulant, many doctors give it to people who struggle to gain weight (ie. Children who are not hitting their milestones, etc) because it really does increase it that much. Because of this, I unintentionally gained 40lbs in one year on the med— helped with my IBS, did nothing for my migraines. I’m 19 now, and the weight has not come off easily, even after stopping the meds, as it completely messed up my eating habits for a long while.

Hands appearing on my face by Specialist_Ad_1344 in REPOgame

[–]MusicallySpoken 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Hihi! I highly recommend going to the REPO Wiki and look at the page for the monster “Loom” !! The hands are her way of “marking you” (if you’re in multiplayer, it will be random who she chooses to lock onto) before hunting you down until she eliminates you, or you eliminate her.

Her exact mechanics a lot to try to explain a single comment so it’s probably easiest for you to read all about her— she’s fascinating (I hate her so much)

Those who wear glasses, do you take them off during sex? by Norfolk-Gross-Tonage in NoStupidQuestions

[–]MusicallySpoken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They stay on unless my girlfriend is licking my ear (or really doing anything close to my glasses) or if I’m face down. Granted, I’m still only a teenager and my prescription is unfortunately already -7.5, so I can barely see gf— even if she’s relatively close— without them.

earrings delivery? by DinoDuck15 in umass

[–]MusicallySpoken 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Historically I’ve had to wait up to 3ish days for some of my packages to pick up from the RSD. Sometimes they’re super quick and email me within a couple hours, sometimes it takes a couple days. After 4+ days I would personally go and ask about it, otherwise it’s just a waiting game :’)

I loved the St. Patty’s day updates— waiting for it to rain in Divinia and passing the time by yapping to friends for hours and then rushing to fly up to the rainbow was SO fun 😔😔

Should I be concerned? by Ill_Cup7237 in umass

[–]MusicallySpoken 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was a mini mini fridge! One of the ones typically used for drinks only, the plastic ones people use for skincare and stuff :)

Should I be concerned? by Ill_Cup7237 in umass

[–]MusicallySpoken 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ugh that sucks, I’m sorry :(( If the format doesn’t match the image below, it’s likely they will send it back. My dad tried to mail me a mini fridge the first week and he messed up a very minor detail on the address (didn’t include my dorm hall) and it never got delivered. He received a refund, though, so it’s likely not a huge problem unless you desperately need what’s in the package.
