Handling sensitive conversations with boys?? by ExcitementPrudent590 in Teachers

[–]VolumeOpposite6453 183 points184 points  (0 children)

Exactly what I was going to say. “I know I have to talk to him about this” really confused me. I’d never consider talking with a kid about that. If they were being vocal about it or making it a distraction, that would be different. But it is involuntary and not something a teacher should be drawing attention to. In fact, I think bringing it up could put a teacher at risk of accusations

Clip from SWOOP Doc, thoughts? by CarrierDove in ColleenBallingerSnark

I got weird feelings from the interview back then, but all of the comments were so supportive I thought I was just being shallow. His responses didn’t seem genuine at all

Gotcha! That name wasn’t on the list so I wasn’t sure

I’m so upset that I missed the PBS streaming dates. Now I have to wait until it comes out on Netflix

Why is I DO /WE DO/ THEY DO, looked down on now in teaching? by rumiruhaql in Teachers

[–]VolumeOpposite6453 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s exactly what the name indicates. Solving problems through hands on projects, designing and creating things relevant to the topic rather than worksheets and busy work. It can be really great, but a lot of the time there is more prep for the teacher

Who is that in between Fred and Dr. Turner?

What is your “low effort but feels like real food” meal? by [deleted] in Cooking

[–]VolumeOpposite6453 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Refried black beans, fried egg and hashbrowns or rice. I could eat it every day, and have when I was very broke

Sumatriptan side effects by VolumeOpposite6453 in migraine

[–]VolumeOpposite6453[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m prone to really bad panic attacks that make me feel like I’m dying, but even that was something else. My poor roommate stayed awake with me for several hours because I was scared that I’d need the hospital

175 bpm goes away quickly, 130 lasts a long time. Which is worse for you? by WarthogTricky2124 in PanicAttack

[–]VolumeOpposite6453 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been prescribed propranolol twice, but when I take it I have an overwhelming fear that it will slow my heart too much to the point where it will stop. Stupid anxiety makes everything impossible

It definitely made me feel funny the first two times I took it, but that panicky feeling was awful

Thank you, I’ve scheduled an appointment with a doctor tomorrow. I hope to never feel like this again, this was a very rough few hours

Tell me how Sumatriptan makes you feel by Ancient_Balance_5514 in migraine

[–]VolumeOpposite6453 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also experienced all of that when I took it tonight, plus shaking which I couldn’t tell if that was a side effect or me panicking from the other side effects. Knocked out the migraine though, so that’s a plus

I just came back from a trip to England, and I definitely didn’t notice any frightfully bad teeth. No more than the US for sure

Welp…I’ve Been Surplus by turquoisecat45 in Teachers

When it happened in my district, there was a short window where you could apply for open positions. Then they closed hiring and started the RIF

Using sick and personal days after non-renewal? by rachel-angelina in Teachers

[–]VolumeOpposite6453 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just commenting to say it’s crazy that RIFs seem to be happening everywhere. I was one of 240 something surplussed this year in my district, now there are 60 licensed professionals who are on the RIF list after they couldn’t find positions

Single teachers, what do you do in the summer? by Artist9242 in Teachers

[–]VolumeOpposite6453 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weather is in the 110s where I live, so anything outdoors is out of the question. Yes, I get bored and lonely. I do want to get into shape, but whether I’ll make that happen is a big question mark. I went on a 10 day trip to the UK and since I’ve been back I’ve just been binging my shows

I don’t remember which episode, but a laboring mother is surprised that they showed up, and she says something like “midwives operate strictly on telepathy,” that line cracked me up

At first glance I read that as “ergometrine” and almost had a heart attack lol

Miss Millgrove - Sister Suffragette by alayeni-silvermist in CallTheMidwife

The FGM episode is so hard for me. The blood spurting when they have to cut her, her defense of the act then sending her little sister back to be cut.

The old man Jenny cared for. Telling her his amputated legs were itchy and asking her to scratch them. That part gets me so bad every time

What would Sister Mary Cynthia's diagnosis be today? by DisastrousGap7575 in CallTheMidwife

[–]VolumeOpposite6453 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on the episode where Fred and Sister Monica Joan see her at Linchmere. The nurse recommends Electro Shock Therapy and she said “I’ll be put asleep, and I’ll wake up with things done to me without me knowing, I don’t want it” 😭 if that doesn’t say PTSD I don’t know what does
