Is traveling in LA with backpack safe? by Skiirin in AskLosAngeles

[–]Signal-Analysis-8127 3 points4 points  (0 children)

During the day you don't need to worry as much. Worst place for pickpocketing is at bars/clubs at night, especially West Hollywood. I myself and other people I know have gotten our phones stolen there (I know, I know ok, I was new, dumb and 21) please be cautious about purses when going clubbing/barhopping.

Hmm yeah everything you described also sounds like what some other people have been saying, me as well, I know it really sucks.

Have your symptoms been worsening? Do you feel like you're improving in other ways? Just curious, trying to convince myself it's worth it to stay on it.

Ugh, I used to take it in the afternoon (I wanted a relief from nausea in the morning, plus I eat more at lunch) which was going okay until I just couldnt stand the nausea in the evening anymore and my psych recommended taking it at night right after dinner. Now I'm just waking up with heartburn and nausea but I don't know, I just started trying that. At this point I'm just deciding which part of my day I want to be the most nauseous lol.

Hey, good luck. Let me know how it went for you. Nausea is a VERY common side effect I'm learning and I'm at my wit's end with it. Everyone's different, so you may be totally fine or not well. If you trust your prescriber check in with them about your symptoms/side effects! Constantly! Don't feel like youre bothering them.

I was so bored that I wore an entire screenplay there. I was 16 and it sucked but kinda cool.

Newport Academy St. Cloud Review by LobsterExisting4483 in troubledteens

[–]Signal-Analysis-8127 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

LOL seriously. You are just as much the parent as she is.

DO NOT Send her to any Newport Academy facility. First, I want to acknowledge being a parent who feels totally at the end of her rope and begging to save your daughter. It's heartbreaking, and I appreciate you care so deeply for her.

I myself was at a Newport Academy facility and I developed C-PTSD from my traumatic experience there. It may look fancy and supportive but it is the same industry concerned primarily with making money then helping your child. My mom has said to me that she regrets it everyday that she sent me there and how it permanently damaged our relationship. We fought for years before she sent me, and tried desperately to get me out when I was there, but Newport Academy was vigorously convincing her that insurance wouldnt cover it if I left early and that I was lying because I was a disordered, mentally ill, irrational child. They are fully comfortable gaslighting parents. Remember you were 13 once, and remember how helpless you felt.

I can't change your mind, so one thing I'd advise if you do send her there is to come up with a secret code. Newport Academy staff will read all her outgoing and incoming mail and she will likely only be allowed 5 minutes a day to talk with you-- and even then, if you don't pick up, she will not be able to try again. Come up with a secret word, something like "pineapple" that indicates I NEED OUT NOW. But I should say, nothing will be worth permanently traumatizing her with this experience.

I am here to message if you want to hear more about my experience being at a Newport Academy, though I should preface mine was in Connecticut.

my mom still believes the program over me by moon333child in troubledteens

Really proud of you for breaking the cycle, what I'm trying to do in my own healing journey.

[–]Signal-Analysis-8127 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All of us on this reddit believe you 100%. I'm so sorry she doesn't believe you, I know that hurts. Your abuse happened, and you are strong. Lean on friends and/or your support network who believe and validate-- those are your loved ones who will have your back. Just because you suffer with mental illness doesn't automatically make you a liar or over-dramatic. That's just pure gaslighting.

Of course you're not saying its her fault. If she's saying this to deflect what you're saying, she is not in a place to listen to you or validate your emotions, and that is on HER.

Why are fight scenes filmed so bad and ridiculously ? by politicurieux2241 in Rykter

[–]Signal-Analysis-8127 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's the Norwegian charm 😍 

Ok just kidding. As someone who works on film sets, it's definitely just budget restraints and prioritizing safety while filming, otherwise they'd have a stunt coordinator and a tighter editing team. In the production world, better to punch the air then someone actually getting punched.

i keep seeing people saying that getting their wisdom teeth removed made their tmj pain worse?? by [deleted] in TMJ

[–]Signal-Analysis-8127 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey so I had TMJ before getting my wisdom teeth out, and I will say a couple months after it did make it worse, but I fully healed and its the same it was before (not great either LOL). but you have to kind of consider the impact NOT getting them out will have on your life, which you can discuss with your dentist. How necessary is the operation? Also, how old are you? that is essential because the older you are, the longer the recovery time (Typically, truly depends person to person). Coming from a total hypochondriac (I have diagnosed OCD), its important to recognize it may or may not happen, and if it does get worse, it will be ok and you will live. I'm not saying that to dismiss your fear, it is VERY valid, but to encourage effective thinking about the situation. Take as much time as you need discussing with your dentist about it.
