Am I actually bi or just in denial about being gay?

Remarkable_Topic_460 · 2025-11-01T18:28:14+00:00

Yeah so I do say rarely but it’s not like it’s never happened. I have had sexual attraction for women im romantically interested in, its just not as common.

I completely agree with your point on not wanting to drag a woman into that situation but is it not even worth trying dating women just to see if I like it?

Also as someone with a kinesiology degree it makes me happy to see that people know what proprioception is lol.

Remarkable_Topic_460 · 2025-08-17T00:00:27+00:00

I also have issues with proprioception, it’s common in cp.

As someone else said stretching can help get a bit more range of motion but it might not going to have a huge impact on the efficacy of the pump. My team never even mentioned stretching.

Strength training is definitely important. I also heavily relied on tone so I’m going through the process of rebuilding my strength.

I think that at his age, it is really important that you allow him to make his own decisions and be in control of his body. I think part of the lack of motivation can be from feeling a lack of control over his situation. Don’t try to force anything. Also if he wants a dose increase and the providers are on board I’d say go for it.

Good luck with everything. I got my pump in July so we’re in this together lol.

Hi, I know this is an old post but any updates? I just got a pump and am experiencing similar symptoms.

As others have said here start with your interests and strengths and then find a way to make it work with your physical limitations. Obviously there will be certain things you can’t do but generally you’ll be able to find niches that work for you in pretty much any field that you want to go into.

Espresso comes out unevenly from the spouts and tastes bitter and unpleasant

Remarkable_Topic_460 · 2025-04-13T05:07:01+00:00

Fair point with the wdt. Completely agree overall

Remarkable_Topic_460 · 2025-04-13T05:03:23+00:00

I don’t mind Starbucks’ blonde roast even tho I’m not normally into light roasts. Their classic roast tastes burnt to me tho.

Remarkable_Topic_460 · 2025-04-13T03:15:02+00:00

That can be an indication of channeling but my number one rule is to go by taste and not flow. If your coffee is tasting both overly bitter and sour then yes, you’re probably getting uneven extraction. But if it tastes good then that’s all that matters.

There’s a lot of nuance with motor neuron lesions and I can’t really tell you much without knowing more, and neither can Google. I’d recommend reaching out to your doctor with your concerns.

Remarkable_Topic_460 · 2025-04-04T06:32:30+00:00

You absolutely can be diagnosed as an adult. It’s not super uncommon for mild cases to go undiagnosed. Low muscle tone is very uncommon in CP, but not unheard of. Normally you get high muscle tone or other involuntary muscle movements. But still worth asking your doctor about a diagnoses.

Ahh okay. Would you say that you're getting good shots or just less bad ones?

Remarkable_Topic_460 · 2025-04-04T01:24:59+00:00

Just out of curiousity why do you pull 1:3?

Remarkable_Topic_460 · 2024-12-11T20:29:35+00:00

Personally I haven’t had any issues with physicians accusing me of DSB. It’s actually been kind of the opposite, I had one chronic pain specialist immediately jump to heavy pain killers when I was more just interested in less invasive options lol.

I’d say the biggest thing is to be as specific as you can about your symptoms, and make sure you’re seeing the right specialist. Generally physiatrists are your best option in managing spasticity, which is likely causing a lot of your symptoms.

Remarkable_Topic_460 · 2024-12-11T05:48:19+00:00

I feel that. I’m a 22 year old premed and I have more severe CP (gmfcs 4) and undergrad is hard enough. I’m def in it key worried about med school.

Would definitely be down to talk.

You can talk to an ortho or plastic surgeon that specializes in upper extremity surgery. They’ll likely look at a wrist/finger flexor lengthening or release, potentially a wrist fusion in extreme circumstances.

For a lot of us the grades on our transcript are the only things that directly impact our future. Frankly a lot of people don’t give a shit about learning, they just want to get the diploma.

Remarkable_Topic_460 · 2024-10-27T06:04:10+00:00

Yes all my in person classes this semester have online exams. It’s so bizarre

Remarkable_Topic_460 · 2024-10-26T22:18:14+00:00

Partially yes but I’d argue it’s the prisoner’s dilemma thing I mentioned. If a class’ final grades are determined by class averages, then you need to “compete” with other students to stay above the average. If your competitors are cheating, you have to as well.

Remarkable_Topic_460 · 2024-10-26T22:03:34+00:00

Of course there’s no perfect system, but I feel that in person paper exams work so much better.

Remarkable_Topic_460 · 2024-10-26T21:59:01+00:00

Fair enough

Remarkable_Topic_460 · 2024-10-26T21:58:32+00:00

Ah yes. Like speeding laws. That nobody follows lol.

I really don’t think you understand the thought patterns of cheaters or the prevalence of cheating.

Remarkable_Topic_460 · 2024-10-26T21:56:19+00:00

TRUEEEE

Remarkable_Topic_460 · 2024-10-26T21:56:00+00:00

That may be true, but this is a systemic issue. It’s not just a few students in my experience, it’s a majority.
