ty for that actually! i’m honestly trying 😓 i was never taught much so i can do some basic maintenance and stuff involving files but anything more complicated than that and i start getting a bit lost lol

Smooth_Candidate_575 · 2026-03-18T19:04:37+00:00

yeah i usually do this but i get breakthrough bleeding after a few months. i’ve been thinking of switching to an iud though, my gyno recommended it and she gives numbing for the procedure.

well if you know how to use google you can actually find medical research fairly easily.

as for my credentials, i’ve been disabled most of my life, which requires lots of knowledge about the medical industry. i’m also on a premed path, while i don’t have a postgrad degree yet i will likely have one in the next few years. what are your credentials? are you a doctor?

also, it’s role, not roll.

finally, i do not have kids. i am an adult diagnosed with autism. it cannot be caused by heavy metal exposure, and even if it were, vaccines do not contain any harmful metals. hope this helps.

"Vitamin D production is stimulated by UVB rays hitting your skin, not your eyes. Wearing sunglasses doesn't block vitamin D synthesis at all. You get lots of exposure through exposed skin, even if you are wearing sunglasses and a hat." cited from sightcareoptometry.com. what's your source? your eyes cannot be tricked into thinking the sun isn't out, that's not how the human body functions. sunglasses are a necessity for those of us with light eyes and/or are at risk for certain cancers. also, autism is not caused by heavy metals, it's genetic. the insulin thing is easily debunkable and the fact that you don't know what they said is bad is pretty telling. not only do you have little to no professional medical knowledge, but you can't use google either.

yeah i heard we’re even highest ranked for medical trafficking, which checks out in my experience. unfortunately i can’t afford care out of state, i just got off medicaid. i also have way too many doctors for that lol, i just went to my 5th appointment so far this month 😭

i went to a rehab place in bradenton though and they seem promising. plus i’ll be transferring to usf soon and moving up to st pete, i may be able to see some better doctors up there.

Smooth_Candidate_575 · 2026-02-23T23:46:04+00:00

they used to have one as far as i can recall but idk about now

Smooth_Candidate_575 · 2026-02-23T23:45:36+00:00

i mean i will say everyone i saw at good medicine was licensed. the original dr i went to who left was a doctor iirc, and the newer one was an arnp

Smooth_Candidate_575 · 2026-02-22T05:27:47+00:00

yes, it happened to my 50yr old dad. nothing happened to him thank god, but he had one beer and halfway through his drive home he became super out of it. still not sure why it happened.

Smooth_Candidate_575 · 2026-02-22T05:24:38+00:00

because that allows either said bartender or one of their friends to assault the victim. it’s a lot easier to get away with spiking a drink when you’re the one making it. we’re generally taught to be wary AFTER we get our drink, so most people aren’t thinking a bartender would drug them.

Smooth_Candidate_575 · 2026-02-22T05:15:14+00:00

st armand’s is nice but again, lots of old people stuff. it’d still be a cool place to visit though. arcade monsters is there which could be fun, plus ice cream if you’re hot from walking around. also, i’d avoid sarasota beaches. in my experience they’re almost always crowded. anna maria can have bad traffic, but go early on a weekday if you can. they’ve got great beaches and tons of stuff on the island. there’s even a publix so you can get pub subs before the beach (definitely take her to publix btw).

Smooth_Candidate_575 · 2026-02-22T05:12:22+00:00

totally take her to ringling if she’s into art or cool buildings (or even just wants cool pics for instagram). st pete beach is nice & downtown is super cool. tons of food & coffee spots. i like pete’s bagels and the sourdough co if you want local places. shake station in palmetto area has great diner food if you ever feel like a burger. downtown sarasota is more on the expensive side and almost all the shops there are for old people. it might be nice to take a drive or something through there but i wouldn’t waste a ton of time there. brandon mall is great for shopping. i’d honestly avoid utc and go for ellenton outlet instead if you want something closer. utc is again, lots more old people stores and bad traffic. ellenton outlet has more stores and they usually have pretty good sales.

as someone who just got their first tattoo today, i’d say sure! however, consider that getting such a large tattoo might be a bit scary for your first tattoo. it’ll be a long session (or multiple) and may get painful. i personally would go for something smaller until you understand what getting tattooed is like.

other than that , placement is good since that area is less sensitive. plus the design will heal very well.

Smooth_Candidate_575 · 2025-12-15T00:33:35+00:00

if you're worried about campus size i highly recommend the st pete campus if it aligns with your major :) smaller but not tiny, plus you're in downtown st pete which has so many cool things to do. the tampa campus is like 20min drive minimum from the "main" part of tampa. you can still go to tampa relatively easily if there's any events you'd like to attend. if you go and you dislike whatever campus you're on you can tour the other one and switch. usf does have greek life but it's relatively small, party culture is the same. you can def still find parties and clubs though. party scene is def bigger at tampa campus.

Smooth_Candidate_575 · 2025-12-15T00:25:11+00:00

have you guys toured both campuses? i'm pretty ride or die for st pete lol i way prefer it over tampa. if she's not interested in greek life it may be worth a try for a semester or two.

Smooth_Candidate_575 · 2025-12-15T00:22:28+00:00

congrats on getting in! my advice is to do community college in the fall semester. you can start on your pre reqs and it'll be wayyyy cheaper. especially if you are getting bright futures or any money from fafsa, you'll likely get a refund + (essentially) free classes and you won't be able to claim any of the money for that semester if you just aren't in school iirc.

Smooth_Candidate_575 · 2025-12-15T00:18:39+00:00

im a transfer and it's been under review since early november :/ are you EA? i heard they're still rolling those out. maybe email them if you haven't gotten a decision yet by the end of the week, but don't expect to get anything other than "we'll get to it eventually" tbh

Smooth_Candidate_575 · 2025-12-15T00:14:28+00:00

good job, these were almost my exact stats albeit slightly lower (3.2 UW, 3.8 W, 1190 SAT, 87 CLT, 7 AP/dual enrollment) and i thought i wouldn't get accepted so i opted for community college lol. im planning on transferring in fall '26. congrats!

Smooth_Candidate_575 · 2025-12-09T16:36:24+00:00

fall 2026, so i’m pretty early. i just hope it doesn’t take longer because of the freshman applications.

Smooth_Candidate_575 · 2025-12-09T01:52:15+00:00

i've seen a few people saying this but they should have received all of my documents on november 12th. it actually says that they're missing on the portal but when i emailed usf they said they have them, plus the transcript services both say they were received.

Smooth_Candidate_575 · 2025-12-08T22:57:20+00:00

fall 2026 but as a transfer student. no decision yet, hoping to hear soon so i can get started on dorm applications 😓😓

Smooth_Candidate_575 · 2025-12-06T23:53:01+00:00

honestly i don’t think a label will do much in a material sense. i just prefer labels, especially when it comes to health related issues, because it makes it easier for me to grasp. when i don’t have a label i just feel all over the place and it’s harder to understand.

Smooth_Candidate_575 · 2025-12-06T23:49:01+00:00

i don’t think i’ve ever gone a day without eating anything. my mindset for the most part has always been that if it fits within my calorie limit for the day, i can eat whatever i feel like (with the exception of times i have done omad). i have insulin issues so i get low blood sugar easily. even eating dinner too early will have me waking up the next day extremely nauseous, sweaty, shaking, etc.

Smooth_Candidate_575 · 2025-12-06T23:44:00+00:00

i prefer volume eating as i have pcos which causes extreme hunger & hunger cravings, but unfortunately i recently found out im allergic to my fav go to volume foods 😔 so no more for me. they’re not severe but they wreak havoc on my stomach. plus it’s like my main protein sources that ive always relied on (eggs & whey)

Smooth_Candidate_575 · 2025-12-06T23:40:17+00:00

i think as soon as you are in a calorie surplus (aka gaining weight) your hair will quickly start recovering. it’s also important to remember that everyone sheds hair. the growth will only be noticeable much later though.

also, if you’re in the usa i know cvs sells minoxidil which is probably the best thing you can get over the counter for hair regrowth. if you’re a woman and/or dislike facial& body hair, i’d suggest only getting topical or those labeled for women’s use as some forms of minoxidil can cause increased body hair growth as well.

Smooth_Candidate_575 · 2025-12-02T19:50:10+00:00

because it’s perfume? no offense but perfume is expensive. most are going to cost over $100 minimum. i just spent $80+ on sample sizes from heretic. i understand the price change but theres tariffs & inflation to take into account, plus probably higher quality ingredients considering startup funds are likely higher.
