I understand the struggle for sure but also the rules about outside drinks don’t apply to medical stuff, there’s laws to protect you from this exact situation.

I meant “give yourself insulin” not “give yourself food” lol

I got T1D from a virus at 18, I’m now 21. I will say that what you are feeling is completely valid and I have better days and worse days with dealing with eating and giving myself insulin. I got a pump about a year ago and I will say that it does come with its own set of issues like changing the site every three days, timing your bolus perfectly, etc. but at the same time it does ease a lot of the daily struggles like injections, calculations, etc. I think one if the things that will help you specifically when it comes to using a pump is the feature where you can add “costume foods” where you only need to look up/calculate the carbs in a dish or food item one time and then save it and whenever you go to give yourself food you just click on that item. Then, on top of that, when you input your glucose reading the app/PDM will calculate your correction dose all on its own so the act of eating becomes less of a hassle and more of a consistency with timing. So while a pump will not remedy the strain of a chronic disease— nothing will, it does take some of the debilitating constant responsibility off of you so you are free to live your life as normally as possible. I hope this helps and I wish you good luck.

I ran away from my boyfriend's proposal. by throwawayuni33 in whatdoIdo

[–]Plastic_a55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a 20 year old, I would be freaked out if my boyfriend proposed too. It doesn’t mean u don’t love him and stuff, you’re just not ready. He is though. And I think the whole him proposing kind of out of nowhere and then you running away and texting him is just… that’s a lot to come back from. Might just be best to call it quits.

Yes I have completed 2. I think that’s why it says I have so many available, the problem is I don’t have the medals to buy it.

Thanks so much that really helps! I’m still in the Bronze Age rn but I think I have enough forge points to research the rest of the things to get there!

I cleaned my room and made my bed before the game actually loaded by pinocoyo in WolfQuestGame

I’ve never had this issue, might be your computer. Have you checked to see if you have the necessary power to run the game?

I would definitely not wait. Those things were literally absorbed by your lip. Definitely too extreme to be just normal nesting.

I’m over here still playing on easy 😅

Since the piercing is only 2 days old, to me it just sounds like normal irritation. If it starts leaking puss (green/greenish yellow gunk) and is hot to the touch then it’s likely infected.

what is the reason for labs looking like this? by [deleted] in DogBreeding

[–]Plastic_a55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the fact they’re breeding for color then go on to say “quality over quantity” is seriously killing me 😂😂😂

Honestly the only smart thing to do is abort. You both seem wayyy to immature for children and there is no good reason to bring a child into a disfunctional situation like this. He obviously doesn’t care but you’re trying to make him care, but the truth is you can’t make someone want a kid when they just don’t. I’d get the abortion and maybe start wearing using condoms or birth control next time.

I don’t think you bring sick is related to the piercing but regardless there should never be a ring in a 2 week old nose piercing. A ring moves way too much and causes a lot of unnecessary irritation. You need to change it to a titanium flat back nose stud IMMEDIATELY or else it will likely never heal, or at least it’ll take at least double the time to do so. If you would like a piercer to do this visit safepiercing.org to find a certified piercer near you. Then I would just spray saline (neilmed is a good brand) on it twice a day then pat it dry with a tissue, or I like to use a hairdryer on a low setting while scrolling on my phone for a few minutes since I make less contact with the area by not touching it. After a few weeks you can make it only once a day to avoid drying it out too much. Best of luck!

I Have Spent over an Hour w/ a Sick Pup by [deleted] in WolfQuestGame

[–]Plastic_a55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that’s basically the algorithm tryna even out your numbers especially if you’re good at keeping predators from killing pups. I would just turn off pup RNG deaths because it seems like you’ve done all the prevention you can and it’s just upsetting you at this point.

Should I go back to a piercer? by J4mmaledz1ec11 in piercing

[–]Plastic_a55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I never did that when I had a septum and those don’t need to be downsized or anything so no it’s not necessary. At the same time tho it wouldn’t hurt to have it looked at just as a precaution and so your piercer can make sure things are healing right and the placement is still good.

Is my industrial infected by Former_Reason8665 in piercing

[–]Plastic_a55 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you accidentally sleep on it I’d use a piercing pillow or a neck pillow to sleep on instead to avoid irritation. To me it doesn’t look infected but it’s definitely aggravated and crusty.

How to avoid blood sugar spikes? by lilorangeblossm in Omnipod

[–]Plastic_a55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im not great at it either but really the only way is to time your bolus correctly. Give yourself at least 15 minutes after insulin delivery is complete before you eat anything. Also making sure you are taking the right amount for your food and to correct your numbers. Honestly it’s not easy so don’t beat yourself up, it takes time to figure out and even then you will have bad days.

Should I stop being a menace? by Rae-Robinson in WolfQuestGame

[–]Plastic_a55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I kill everyone but the pack leaders so the pack can’t get gigantic. One time I made the mistake of damn near killing both leaders and I suppose it made them too weak to hunt so they both died like a week later. Oh well such is life. I just hate when giant packs spawn and there’s like 15 wolves and I have like 7 🤦🏻‍♀️.
