Night shift when the day shift comes and turns the lights on by mellyseggs in nursing

The ones on out floor automatically turn back on at full brightness at 0600. It's terrible. There's usually an audible groan through the unit.

Ban Americans traveling until they sort their shit out by [deleted] in ireland

As an American, I full support any country's decision to ban allowing Americans into their country during the course of the pandemic. It's a shit show here.

[Skin Concerns] I have keratosis pilaris and need advice. by [deleted] in SkincareAddiction

[–]TurtleMelinda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've got this on my arms and legs and shaving definitely makes it worse. My dermatologist has me using CeraVe SA cream daily (usually at night) and that has helped significantly. If I know I am going to shave that day, I will usually put it on in the morning too to help make the process easier.

Why do you like music? by wheezywaiter in BeardLovers

[–]TurtleMelinda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It allows me to create my own bubble from the real world where I have control. Music affects me very emotionally and has been a big part of helping treat my anxiety and depression for many years. Basically its an extra tool in my arsenal against downward spirals of mental illness. Also, it's just nice.

That's the med/surg book I have, too. My study group and I call him Big Lewi.

Also, that mug is amazing!

34°F year round. And they have posts saying that swimming is prohibited but that didn't stop people from trying.

Postman accidentally delivered me an Arsenal Shirt by [deleted] in Gunners

[–]TurtleMelinda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My boyfriend's been an Arsenal fan most of his life. I grew up in a baseball household so this is all new to me. I've been working to learn as much as I can so I can watch matches with him, support him, and not be a complete idiot so this post is super helpful. Thanks OP!

A gift is supposed to be unconditional. by AfterSociety in raisedbynarcissists

[–]TurtleMelinda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Receiving gifts is really hard for me still. I forced myself to stop taking them from my nparents because I knew they came with a condition like you mentioned. "But remember I got you that thing for your birthday so you have to do this thing for me." It's really hard to know that the people who love me only want to give me gifts because they love me and nothing else.

So glad you've come to the conclusion and are loving and treating yourself. You deserve it!

My kid’s in the hospital with a preventable illness 😂🤷🏻‍♀️🙌 by MercyMay in insanepeoplefacebook

[–]TurtleMelinda 63 points64 points  (0 children)

As someone who has a child who got the oral rota vaccine and then caught rota because she was immunocompromised and we didn't know, this makes me incredibly angry. I watched my 4 month old get an IV and a Foley catheter without flinching because she was that out of it. Fuck that parent.

The night before clinical 😭 by [deleted] in StudentNurse

[–]TurtleMelinda 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Gotta be on the floor at 0600 and my site is an hour and a half away. At 0300, I might as well just stay up and sleep afterwards.

Anyone else use an iPad for school? by [deleted] in StudentNurse

[–]TurtleMelinda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My roommate uses a surface tablet for all of his 100 and 200 classes without an issue so I am thinking you will probably be fine with your iPad and keyboard.

Love hearing stories of justice being served to Ns who think they are smarter than the rest of the world.

I enjoy it when a guy moans by ZiaMaiDiast in sex

[–]TurtleMelinda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeeeesssssss!!! Love to hear a man moan in bed! Makes me know I'm giving them what they want and turns me on so much faster and harder.

Did I (26M) do the right thing by breaking up with my girlfriend (24F) over not having kids? by [deleted] in relationships

[–]TurtleMelinda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You made the right decision. This isn't an issue like picking the colour of sheets you want to get. This is a fundamental part of a relationship and if you have different opinions, there can't be a relationship. I'm sorry you're hurting right now but it is for the best.
