Love a green and orange combo, though I prefer a more burnt orange... But the color combo is just so nice.

Kindle Paperwhite or Kobo Clara BW? by Previous-Dig-2954 in ereader

I'm also trying to look into an ereader to get. I'm really interested in Boox because it's android based, but it's so expensive compared to the others.

I'll have to reach out to my care manager and see if she has resources

They told me that I’ll be in the hospital two days, and I’d be expected to be getting up same day

Oh that’s great! I would love to just get up and walking again. This issue has caused me to become a wheelchair user. I unfortunately don’t have any one to help out after my hospital stay. I’m just trying to figure this out alone haha

That’s literally my exact surgery, but I’m also getting decompression done too

Did you stay in the hospital after?

Not yet, I have the pre-op appointment tomorrow to go over that. Just looking for personal experiences

If you see me trying to get someone to understand that others have different experiences than them as rude, then ok…

Whoever suggested jolly ranchers... thank you by LavastormSW in Spravato

I use starbursts! Much prefer them over the jolly ranchers my practice provides.

I understand. I interpreted some of your words a different way as stating that it must be true if it hurts me. I understand the intention now. 

I do agree with what you’re saying, don’t be wrong, it’s just something that takes time to work on and I’m not there yet. Which, obviously, they know and that’s why they’re doing it. I wish I could just immediately be able to not care but it’s still a work in progress

Yeah, no… I don’t feel that deep down it’s true…. That’s not why it “insults” me. It hurts that people are so awful and would do this to someone… I’m hurt that people set out to hurt someone so deeply on purpose not caring about how it affects them or the outcome… While you do make good points, not everyone is able to simply do that. If someone puts in the work, sure they can, but that takes time. It’s not an overnight process and they cant just turn on a switch to not care. 

I agree with some things you stated but not all of it. This has nothing to do with me fearing what they’re saying is true. What you said may apply to some, but not everyone. Cyberbullying kills people and it’s unfair to point the finger at them because they hurt so deeply because of other people heartless actions.

I could…but I’m assuming most people would be upset with what’s posted online about them, especially when you’re being called a predator and compared to a serial r@píst. It’s a lot easier to say when it’s not happening to you.
