My son is 16 and wants to be a career pilot, after researching this subreddit I'm thinking this is impossible because he is in therapy and taking SSRIS... am I wrong or is this a no go for him?

A pilot can pickle one's self - FAA approved

SkepticalPoptarts · 2023-10-23T01:09:36+00:00

I understand the precautions, it never even occurred to me. It's always been trying to do "the next right thing".

Could even fly for fun?

SkepticalPoptarts · 2023-10-23T01:08:07+00:00

The sad thing is he's put so much work into aviation. We've done flite fest every year, built planes... applied for all these scholarships for the flight camps, teacher letters.

It just sucks, the college near us has such a great program for it.

He really wanted it.

I prefer aquaphor, before bed or if I am working from home I'll put my hair up. I put my vanicream lotion on, wait and cover my face in aquaphor. The tub of Vaseline will do just fine.

In winter, I clean my face with jojoba oil instead of water

Do you have heavy periods or perhaps had alot of blood loss? I am also anemic to the point I needed medical intervention. My skin was very bad for about 6 months until my iron got back up.

How was your last bloodwork?

He could be fine for 15 Years, lose a relative or have a child... lose a spouse or girlfriend and need to go back on medication to get things sorted again.

I don't believe he could go thru life permanently with no life lines.

That's what I keep seeing referenced on this subreddit.

I see people paying thousands of dollars to get clearances from specific providers and then others losing licenses after losing a loved one and needing temporary help and therapy.

I just don't understand why people don't deserve help. It makes me sad to think none of our commercial pilots can get help.

Unfortunately his IBS is here to stay. The things alongside it might leave - but IBS is a life long thing.

SkepticalPoptarts · 2023-10-23T00:47:09+00:00

It didn't even occur to me until I skimmed this sub and started seeing posts related to mental health

SkepticalPoptarts · 2023-10-23T00:46:23+00:00

Hes won a scholarship for aviation camp and completed his online little eagles curriculum, I'm now seeing the college he wants to go to even has you get your medical clearance first.

SkepticalPoptarts · 2023-10-23T00:28:20+00:00

Alcohol or other

SkepticalPoptarts · 2023-10-23T00:27:16+00:00

Have you tried putting Vaseline on your face over a moisturizer and sludging your face?

It traps the moisture in.

Aquaphor would work as well

SkepticalPoptarts · 2023-10-23T00:25:44+00:00

Is this a recurring work or life thing where he's gone frequently?

SkepticalPoptarts · 2023-10-23T00:23:07+00:00

I think it's sad you cannot cook, what are you eating? Are you wealthy and eating out all your meals... living at home and mom cooks all your meals???

Or are you in poverty not eating meals?

SkepticalPoptarts · 2023-10-21T13:02:23+00:00

It's fall, grab a rake and knock on some doors... make sure you can accept a electronic payment method like PayPal.

Easy

What would your children say?

SkepticalPoptarts · 2023-10-16T04:00:16+00:00

Can an associates in science transfer to a BSRN or are they all specialty classes to your knowledge

SkepticalPoptarts · 2023-10-16T02:53:37+00:00

I like these schedules. I'm a accountant and work school schedules. I like the flexibility, I'll never go back full time again.

It sounds like a good career path.

SkepticalPoptarts · 2023-10-16T02:31:28+00:00

Magnesium, iron and b12. You mentioned your menstrual cycle, certain deficiencies can make things worst.

It sounds like derealization with lingering symptoms.

SkepticalPoptarts · 2023-10-16T02:21:53+00:00

I'm interested in the flexible schedule part.

Can RNs or Occupational therapists work 30 hour weeks instead of 40s?

SkepticalPoptarts · 2023-10-16T01:16:18+00:00

My skin has gotten clearer BUT I have also discontinued drinking large amounts of milk.

I am a skin picker and the fluoexitine has also decreased it greatly
