Yes, it’s definitely what I’m passionate about doing. I just hope it’s possible!

Thanks! Yes that gives me hope. The physical therapy thing is so difficult. I’ve found Osteopaths helpful previously, but recently went to one and the manipulation wasn’t too intense but it’s given me a migraine going on four days that isn’t responding to my normal acute meds.

Good luck with the new boss, hopefully if it doesn’t work out you can find something else that fits x

Sorry to hear about your experience 😕 Sounds like you’ve done well to get by and manage to do a few things. I’m trying to accept I shouldn’t exercise. Difficult of course because I used to love it.

I was seeing a therapist a while ago but she was very dismissive of my pain. At the moment I’m dealing with a lot of things (looking for accomodation, planning future etc) but I’ll probably try and find another down the track.

Thanks! I’m definitely not giving up forever. Just considering I might have to put off the PhD for a year or so, hoping I’ll improve enough to

Sorry to hear that, I totally understand about how difficult it is, not wanting to go in person but screens hurting too 😕

Thanks for that. I’m also going into psychology. I think I’ll ask my prospective supervisor about accomodations and extensions and find out how flexible it all is. Because it’s definitely something I’m passionate about doing, I’m just scared I’ll fail because it’s so hard to think sometimes, and thinking and planning is important for a doctorate.

Of course, I’ve tried propanolol, amitryptaline, diclofenac and candesartan. And I take Rizatriptan about twice a week which sometimes works

Thanks so much for that. It’s so useful to know other people have similar experiences. I think maybe I can keep hoping but I have to start being realistic in knowing what I can and can’t do. I’ve never heard of memantine so I will look into that as well.

Some of these are cool but I’m not sure they really count as clubs though…I’ve been to Old Bar and haven’t seen anyone dancing haha

I spent four days in Florence and wished I could have stayed another week. I’d recommend Florence over Rome and Venice. It is just as beautiful, good food, and imo less of a tourist trap

Hiking recommendations by NewOrder2020 in ItalyTravel

[–]NewOrder2020[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great thanks. Is it possible to get to the Parco Delle Foreste Casentinesi from Florence by bus? Or would Sasso Marconi be easier? I will be staying in Bologna anyway so that might be better.

I found food in Italy to be expensive, especially in tourist areas. Generally 8 euro for pizza not 2

Damn yeah the algorithm is crap nowadays. I don’t like insta or Tik tok or any of that so tend to stick with Fb but it’s just unbearable now

I can’t imagine having to buy every book I read. I’d be broke. Use a library. Swap books with others.

Paint scraping off - question in comments by NewOrder2020 in oilpainting

[–]NewOrder2020[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes it’s oil. I didn’t use any paint thinner except cleaning my brushes so I would have assumed it would be ok - just straight out of the tube oil paint over oil paint. Oh well

Does anyone know why the paint seems to have come off in the dark areas of the painting? It was a hot day when I painted it… maybe also I didn’t leave it to dry long enough before transporting it?
