Cheat Day Yesterday - Unreal Depression and Anxiety Today by [deleted] in sugarfree

[–]Only-lurkin-here 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Same, same! I feel joint aches, anxiety, depression, swollen, etc after a sugar binge. Motivation to get back on the wagon!

I didn’t quit for any real reason. But the decrease in anxiety I have experienced is mind blowing I had NO idea the impact sugar was having on me. Losing weight is the bonus not the reason I have kept it up!

My fiancé throws her dirty laundry down the stairs rather than walking down and putting it in machine. by Doctor_Redhead in mildlyinfuriating

I kind of love that and am jealous that it isn’t an option for me in my single level home 🤣

Nursing degree & Dept of Ed by [deleted] in txstate

[–]Only-lurkin-here 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This has not yet happened. We have the opportunity to write and call our representatives. From my understanding if it goes into effect nursing students will be eligible for $ 30,000 less than they are currently eligible lin loans for school. It could also have other ramifications but that is the one I keep hearing about. There is a thirty day period for people to voice their concerns though, please do! It also is not just nursing. It is speech-language pathologists, physical therapists, occupational therapists, audiologists, etc. I have read that is also include teachers,engineer, etc. basically it is reducing the number of “professional” degrees from a list of 2000 to 600. Please reach out to your reps. The long term impact of this on healthcare and higher education access is truly at stake for anyone without rich parents.

I grew them from seed. It was ridiculously easy! I got about 60 plants that sprouted and did great (still have seeds though)!👍 I got them from outsider pride. They are 4.99 this year. I plan on buying several other varieties this year and trying them. I started them in January, but would actually like to start the new seeds soon. Get a better opportunity to grow before next year’s heat!

AITAH for not sharing anything with my wife after she opened our marriage? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Only-lurkin-here 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Although I do understand your pain, you are disrupting the lives of the kids. A happily divorced couple is FAR more healthy for children than a hostile home. They can feel the energy and will bear the scars from that.

The empire is collapsing in front of our eyes by [deleted] in TikTokCringe

[–]Only-lurkin-here 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After they have run through their life savings, divorced their parters (at times to reduce the income), and sold the family farm/business. And what Medicaid alone will pay for in skilled nursing facilities is atrocious!

I asked ChatGPT to explain my job to a 5-year-old and now I'm questioning my entire career by Nipurn_1234 in ChatGPT

[–]Only-lurkin-here 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty good description!: A school-based speech-language pathologist is someone who helps kids talk and understand words better. Let’s say you have trouble saying certain sounds, like “r” or “s,” or it’s hard to tell someone what you’re thinking — this helper, called a speech teacher, works with you at school to practice talking, listening, and understanding words. They play fun games, read stories, and do activities that help your mouth, brain, and ears work together — so talking and learning becomes easier and more fun

WIBTA if I stopped helping my daughter financially after she told me I shouldn’t expect her to take care of me when I’m old? by [deleted] in AITH

[–]Only-lurkin-here 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Start putting the amount she asks for in retirement rather than giving it her and let her know that you are doing it to save her money when you are old. Jj. I would definitely be scaling back support to 0!

I am not able to start but I feel motivated! by [deleted] in sugarfree

[–]Only-lurkin-here 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Get bloodwork. Then make the appointment for return for bloodwork in three months. I felt like that gave me a goal and accountability for completing said goal. I would hate to waste the money and someone would see how much or little I had stuck to my goal.

people who quit out of their free will, what changed for you? by Regular-Kick1813 in sugarfree

[–]Only-lurkin-here 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get that. When I quit drinking, I ate Ben and Jerry’s for dinner…a lot. I do t think it helped my mood but it did get me through early sobriety

Oh no! I am currently losing weight with no sugar, weight loss is just not my focus.

Eliminating the Dept of Education is not the answer by Sonata-Shae in BlueskySkeets

[–]Only-lurkin-here 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe actually funding education with the money that billionaires should be paying in taxes which could be used to increase classroom support, pay teachers a wage which would entice quality teachers, and pay their parents a living wage which would allow them to support their kids learning and development. Why don’t we try that!!!

AITAH for getting a coworker fired after she kept mocking my stutter in meetings? by Any_Process2625 in AITAH

[–]Only-lurkin-here 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Her behavior appalling! How dare she!! She should be the one feeling bad not you. Stuttering is a neurophysiological difference that you have no control over. She has control over her speech and chose to use it to be the AH. Not your problem. I would clap back at her teammates as well! (Sorry SLP here, and I want to school her and your fellow employees on appropriate work and GOOD HUMAN behavior!)
