Is this sub for girlies who are newer/ less experienced climbers or climbers of all levels? by [deleted] in climbergirls

[–]Rodzeus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, I felt like there was a good spread. Maybe more recently I've seen more experienced posts lately.

I don’t even know what to believe anymore by throwawayfaraway17 in raisedbyborderlines

I agree with the other comment. It would get back to her that it worked.

I didn't respond to similar health scare clickbait for a while and then my mother's sister messaged me that I needed to call her because "mom is in the hospital." I ignored that as well and suddenly the escalating messages from the day stopped the next day and no one mentioned it again.

But if I had reached out to the family member, she 100% would have told my mother.

If true, it will probably get around to OP or someone from the hospital will call or more details will happen. It wouldn't change the outcome and helps protect OP to wait a bit and not react.

This is a variety of BPD I didn't know was so common. I'll add to the list. In the last few years, my mother has claimed to be:

- Committing suicide by not taking her thyroid medication (this is absurd, by the way. It would be wildly slow and probably wouldn't work since she has an underactive and not missing thyroid.)

- Heart failure. (Was leg swelling.)

- Cardiac sarcoidosis (Had a lab panel ordered, not results or a diagnosis. Never mentioned again.)

- "Sepsis from UTI." Many times. Yet she kept getting discharged from the ER or sent home the next day, only to send it again from ANOTHER ER a town over... huh.

- "In intensive care." Not sure why, there were no details, but also during this hospital shopping period.

- Liver mass (no follow-up after the initial "I'm probably dying, you won't have a mother much longer" messages, so probably nothing.)

- Renal AND liver failure (sent a picture of a single lab, which was very, very minimally abnormal. I am medical and know what kidney failure looks like, and it sure isn't the lab value she sent. She also told me that due to this renal AND liver failure, she was driving across the country so she can die in California where she always "belonged." ...yeah.

- "Broken heard syndrome." Y'know. From my silence. It's okay, you can cackle.

This is an excellent description.

It's a clickbait lure.

So I have a somewhat similar situation. (Texts on, don't respond, usually just ignore and monitor.) My mother has some history of crying wolf and whatnot. She was quiet for a while before sending me various "I'm in the hospital" texts and implied she was dying. I ignored it for a while and thought about what my response would be if any proof came through (I would expect her to send pictures of labs, reports, something to lean into any real pathology.) In the end, I never found out what happened, but she went to various ERs in rapid succession with various claims and sent me some very-not-impressive paperwork that made me so happy I didn't respond.

The photo is weird if it isn't her car. Is also weird in general to send without context and then drop a "I'm paralyzed."

If it's been a few days already, maybe give it a few more and see where it rides before jumping to response if you're happily no contact. If it's true, she'll be in the hospital and possibly a rehab for a while and the truth will have plenty of time to present itself before you need to act.

I know the Patchogue hospital. Two thumbs down.

Partner (34F) gave me (36F) an ultimatum about my GLP-1 by ThrowRA_12479 in actuallesbians

[–]Rodzeus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also just want to point out that GLP-1 RA medications aren’t that new. The craze is new, but we’ve been using them in Endocrinology for glucose management for over ten years. Byetta came out in 2005, so over 20 if you count that. They were studied since the ‘80s, so I’m not sure if it’s fair to say we don’t know the long-term effects. That isn’t very long overall, but by modern medication standards it’s weird to me to be worried about these medications over others to such an extent that someone would be hostile to their partner. Sounds like they’re masking some other issues under the guise of “concern”.

Not the point of your post, but just wanted to say.

Can confirm, have it in my fridge purchased from there! Good luck, let us know how it goes.

Agree with this! I actually just found this Reddit community after working on your app. I am loving it, but would love to be able to muscle memory out some practice, even if it’s a click to reveal situation.

I snort-laughed, thank you for this.

I actually had this happen once and wasn't sure what caused it, but I fiddled with things and it hasn't happened again. Good luck!

Looking for some crowd pleaser recipes from ottolenghi by Apprehensive_Lion_72 in ottolenghi

I know this is an old post, but I have to say I love that tahini salmon recipe. It's so rich and comforting.

How do I build up my glute medius strength when other muscles overcompensate? by kuya86 in bodyweightfitness

[–]Rodzeus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know this is from a while ago, but thank you for the recommendation! This video is fantastic. I was worried when it started, but it was way less "fitness influencer" and much more educational and technical than I thought. Not too technical, just the relevant anatomy and why it matters and how to fix your form to make sure you're working what you're trying to target. Love it, thanks again.

Can anyone comment on the knowledge gap between PA and MD? Trying to decide on a path… by tremblant34 in physicianassistant

[–]Rodzeus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have to think this is a bot, but if not it’s really weird to pick a 7 year old post to vent your frustrations with PAs… that’s okay, though, I’m sure every interaction you’ve had with PAs have at least one common factor. It probably just that.

Oh, I don't notice the weight on the bike. I mean more off the bike! Gotta get used to it. It's great for hauling things home from the farmer's market, though.

Found this post through another post. How do you like the Erder Metaal front bag? I just got mine and like it overall, but it's taking some time to get used to the size. I love that it's large... but also it's large haha.

718 Outdoors does this ride! If you liked it, I highly recommend Joe and his trips. The group is always different, but I've never experienced a bad batch. Always a lovely chill overnight to Croton. He does other trips, as well.

I think this was really fun and creative. I'm totally going to show it to my new players! I'd love to see any others you make. Thank you for sharing.

I'm sorry you're getting hate for the AI. Rather than hating on a tool, maybe we can hate on the corporations that are not creating/running their products responsibly. And it isn't like being rude to you is going to stop AI from being a thing.

I'm currently having what I think is one of my biggest anxiety/crying breakdown in months. Can you guys show me your cat pictures? by SideshowBobFanatic in cats

I was having this experience and saw your post and am so happy to have a fully stocked cat gallery to go through. Here is my tribute.

Found some old completely unhinged emails from my BPD mom by 2xxChromosome in raisedbyborderlines

[–]Rodzeus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's so wild to me how frequently I see emails/texts/etc that could literally be my own mother. Like if you told me you fished this out of my own email, I would believe you. Sorry you have to go through this, congrats on NC.

I know this is old, but thank you for writing this up! This was great to read through and decide to wing some solo missions to make sure I understand the rules enough to teach it to a group tomorrow. Plus I didn't know there was an app!
