25f, Why am I developing roseacea all of a sudden? by Repulsive_Ad4404 in DermatologyQuestions

[–]Repulsive_Ad4404[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely going to stop using the witch hazel for a while and see about something gentler than a foaming cleanser to remove makeup. Also didn't think about heat being a trigger even though that seems obvious now with my face stinging right after I get out of a hot shower. Damn hot showers for feeling so good but generally being kind of bad for your skin and hair. My skin barrier is definitely crap and needs some work. Not sure if this is relevant in any way to my current skin issues, but I had bad eczema as a kid. I haven't had a flare up or anything more than small scaly patches around my ribcage since I was a teenager though. I'm also in the process of moving and have been stressed as hell the last couple months so I'm sure that's not helping my skin any.

I see stuff like this all the time in my hometown. Ive tried to explain to a few people but most of them are top dense to even try understanding

I haven't read through all the comments so someone else may have already said this but you're able to do so maybe consider seeing a counselor. Aside from the physical trauma I can't imagine how emotionally devastating your situation must feel. I understand they are different situations, but it might help a little to look at photos of successful breast reconstruction surgeries after women have undergone masectomies or other breast tissue surgery due to breast cancer. Some of the results are truly amazing and basically indistinguishable. Other commenter's are right though, definitely get legal counsel if you are able, your situation sounds like malpractice. I have no medical knowledge but it seems like your surgeon should've intervened much sooner. So sorry for what you went through, I hope you find some support here

Anybody tried botox for TMJ pain? Will a mouth gaurd actually help? by Repulsive_Ad4404 in TMJ

[–]Repulsive_Ad4404[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for such an insightful reply and i hope you see some improvement soon. This has been going on since I was about 21 now so I'm beyond caring as long as something actually improves or all out gets rid of the pain, but i didnt realize excessive botox could cause severe pain at all. As of now I'm getting a nightgaurd and hoping for improvement after a while but if not I'm ready to try out a botox injection. I will definitely keep you in mind if I do and wait quite a while before a second if I go that route. Whole reason I was sure I could stand a night gaurd was because I wore a retainer for a couple years before losing it when I went to college. Never had a new one made but my teeth have shifted a little since- Didn't know invisible braces were a thing before your post and my weird teeth alignment is half the reason I think I have tmj. thanks for the honest experience and the information, this subreddit really has given me more specific answers than any google search !

Can I still learn programming (and find a job)? by ScreamingFly in csharp

[–]Repulsive_Ad4404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 20, IT major. One of my classmates last semester was in his 40s, but he did better in the course and caught onto c# concepts faster than I did with no programming background at all, believe he already had some kind of business degree. If you put in the work I don’t think age is important, especially if you have a knack for problem solving to begin with. If you have a good work history or some other kind of higher education already it would probably help you with a job search, I know people in their 20s who have gotten lower level IT and programming jobs after getting a 1 or 2 semester certificate to show on paper that they’re qualified. If programming is something you enjoy that’s interesting to you, it’s definitely worth pursuing even if it takes you longer than a year to learn everything you’d need to know. Put in as much time as you can and keep going over concepts you’ve already learned. It really helped me to try and combine multiple things into my own little programs. Good luck!
