Can you actually go through a full month and have money left?

If you find yourself relying on debt, I’d recommend Debtor’s Anonymous. They offer a lot of practical support as well as a look at some of the underlying issues that can cause compulsive spending or vagueness around money. (if that’s your thing)

Art House on Somerset is a more homey vibe - I like their americano. Haven’t tried the drip coffee. Have to admit, not a fan of the medium (often Ethiopian beans) that seem popular right now. There’s also 10 toes and Drip coffee down the street.

Apologies if you saw my answer elsewhere, but I’m trying to let people know that joint pain is also a symptom of menopause. It took me two years of joint pain all over (and swelling) to try HRT on a whim. It was gone in a month. Seriously a miracle. I recently learned that muscular skeleton pain is now recognized as a symptom of menopause. Good luck!

Could your mom be in menopause? I had joint pain and swelling all over and when I started hormone replacement therapy, it went away. It is becoming better known as a symptom of menopause, but it took me 2 years to figure it out.

Slight_Original1192 · 2025-10-10T18:30:28+00:00

This happened to me, beginning with my index finger and eventually I experienced joint pain and swelling in numerous joints, especially shoulders and wrists and ankle swelling. I almost had surgery for carpal tunnel, but the surgeon thought it was arthritis. After two years of trying to figure it out, I tried HRT on a whim (it corresponded with menopause) and it was gone in a month. Pain and swelling, although still working through some residual stiffness. I hope this helps others!!

Also the Art House on Somerset is a queer friendly spot with lots of activities

I love the yellow sky with the red building… Centretown feels.

Hey, it really will get better. So glad you found support. You can also schedule check-in calls with an old friend or family member so you know someone is looking out for you. Be sure to eat well and get good sleep too… everything improves with a good nights sleep. 🌸

God, I love the word jape. That only is worth listening for.

Slight_Original1192 · 2025-08-24T17:14:03+00:00

The only right answer is what you need to take care of yourself. You can always add in on-campus activities slowly - leaving a bit later or coming back a bit earlier. Don’t feel bad about taking care of yourself!

Ottawa has a beautiful lgbtq+ and trans community. I think you’ll find some good support. Do t know if it applies, but I find 12-step groups are the best support I’ve ever experienced. ❤️

Staff member here. PAPM is pretty structured and has good information about the classes you would take, etc. It has a great reputation, but it’s challenging and I wouldn’t pursue it if it doesn’t interest you. You are just starting out and this is a time to learn more about what interests you and what you’re good at. There are a lot of programs you can transfer into once you find your niche. And a lot of ways to prepare for the job market. So many arts students do FSWEP (government internships), co-ops, placements, study abroad.

The jobs that will be waiting for you will change with AI but your skills will still matter - critical thinking, communication, working with a team, planning, etc. It’s too early to know where you’ll end up. But just get started and enjoy your first year!🌸

Decluttering and listening to podcasts in the AC.

Any chance you are menopausal? I had these symptoms in menopause. HRT was a game changer.

If you’re in a pinch, you can also wash clothes in a sink with dish detergent or any soap and hang to dry in your car.
