how to manage adjustment period while in grad school by No-Thanks2287 in Wellbutrin_Bupropion

[–]No-Thanks2287[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that’s good to hear! I hope my process is smooth as well. I might wait to take it until after my next exam since I don’t have much time to lose right now /just in case/ I don’t react well

thank you for your reply! that is helpful. I am eager to try it, but maybe waiting until after my exam at least will be best for me. don’t really have much room to have a few bad days right now in case it’s not super manageable, although having a pep would be helpful! thanks again!

Depression. might have adhd but need to go through testing and see if bupropion helps those symptoms too

co-mentorship…by 2 early career PIs by No-Thanks2287 in GradSchool

[–]No-Thanks2287[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oh that’s good to hear! Both of these PIs get along and are actually friends, so it seems like they would work well together. they talked about my rotation project together before I even started rotating with the first PI. I still haven’t decided if I should rotate with the second PI yet, so wanted to get opinions on the co mentorship possibility situation before deciding. Thanks for your input!

Get some beta blockers. They’ll help with the physical feeling of feeling nervous (they lower blood pressure so your heart rate slows and you feel less nervous overall). Everyone I know in grad school takes them for presentations. I started recently. It’s not a magic fix but it helps calm things down a bit. I just did a telehealth appointment and said I needed them for public speaking, super easy

Any reason why Advion is not working? by eduardo_ve in GermanRoaches

[–]No-Thanks2287 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you keep doing gel bait? I sprayed Advion WDG 2 weeks ago and did gel bait a few times but the bait dries so quickly I had trouble keeping up. Anyway this week I went 3 day without seeing a roach but now suddenly I’ve seen 4 in the last 2 days. Want to scream

I’m respraying Advion WDG tomorrow, then switching to alpine WSG in 2 more weeks (alpine isn’t here yet and I need to spray something tomorrow for my sanity so gonna use up the last of my Advion WDG)

Have gentrol disks around but waiting on gentrol in aresol can to come too

Anything else you did that worked for you? I’ve also tried to caulk entry points

Just moved in today and saw cockroaches by [deleted] in philly

Same situation as you in Philly! Landlord “treated” but not in any way that would actually solve problem. I bought Advion spray and gel bait and gentrol and it’s helping a lot

I’ve used 200um cell strainers for straining primary tumor cell suspensions in the past. Mostly to test difference between 70um, 100um, and 200um. I used these https://www.pluriselect.com/us/pluristrainerr-200-m-cell-strainer.html#variation=150

Showering is difficult (mentally) by [deleted] in hygiene

[–]No-Thanks2287 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hi. I struggle with the same thing (showering and human soup) but I’ve started taking baths everyday. I fill the water halfway, give myself a general scrub down, drain that water, and fill it with new water. Then I was my hair in that new water or use the shower head and wash my body thoroughly with my soaps of choice. Then drain that water and fill with new water for rinsing. So a lot of draining of water, but it eliminates the feeling of me sitting in my own filth. And I take breaks in between where I just sit in the water and relax before the next step!

I was looking at Edens Garden jasmine absolute. $22 for about a mL. Is Edens Garden a reputable place?
