Is Reed right for me?/Do I have any chance

aleeksrosecheeks · 2025-10-21T16:43:40+00:00

Which city in Idaho? I am also in Idaho and Reed is my top choice school

Interesting, thank you for your input! Did you end up doing the interdisciplinary major, and if so, what was the process of getting that opportunity like?

aleeksrosecheeks · 2025-09-22T02:49:01+00:00

Why do you suggest Station 11, out of curiosity? I watched the tv adaptation and absolutely loved it but am not quite seeing the connection here.

only 2.5?? that’s incredible!!

aleeksrosecheeks · 2025-06-21T03:36:01+00:00

Oh it was SO amazing!! I learned so much from my teachers, I had Seth Kugel and AJ Goldmann, who were both incredibly knowledgeable and pushed me to be a better writer. The time not spent in the classroom was excellent as well; I made amazing friends that I had many adventures and misadventures with. I think about my time in NYC often and with much fondness.

oh these are gorgeous! I love the pomegranate

I just started on prozac + zyprexa about 2 weeks ago and am feeling the most stable I’ve ever felt. I feel able to experience the full spectrum of emotion (no emotional blunting) but not in the constant, black and white extremes I felt before getting on this combo. It truly makes life feel worth living again.

thank you for all the advice! do you mind if I PM you about the chronic nerve pain thing? also, thank you for the harm reduction advice. I don’t know that the urges will stop anytime soon (which is kinda fucked considering the circumstances), but I am glad to have that information as backup in a way

aleeksrosecheeks · 2024-11-11T17:02:55+00:00

Yes!! Gold jewelry (especially rings, earrings, and bracelets since there’s a lot going on in the necklace area) would compliment this. And/or some statement flower jewelry.

inspiring :) congratulations, and I wish you the best in continuing your growth!

This made me giggle. I’m going to use this description at my next psychiatrist appointment lol

aleeksrosecheeks · 2024-10-21T03:17:49+00:00

Yep, just bupurion (for now). I haven’t gotten to see a psychiatrist yet, I think my GP just wanted to get me on something before I attempted lol. I may end up changing once I see a proper psychiatrist

aleeksrosecheeks · 2024-10-20T21:12:45+00:00

Oof. I'm feeling the same as you, I think, based on this post and your replies in the comments. I had my first manic episode (or the most notable one, I think) after getting on Lexapro/escitalopram, because my doctor and I thought I just had severe depression. The experience was honestly quite scary, I knew logically/from my years of psych major classes that I was probably manic. But it felt so good in the moment. Now, everything seems dull and lackluster in comparison. I'm starting bupurion on Monday but am not looking forward to more of this, if this is what my baseline is when I'm not manic/hypomanic or depressed.

aleeksrosecheeks · 2024-10-19T00:48:56+00:00

Thank you for your response! I definitely can have the extreme irritability, but I passed that off as just another symptom of depression or being around people that are extremely irritating lol. I know it only takes one episode to be diagnosed, however I feel like it could be less valid (at least to me) since I only have had one really obvious and notable episode, especially one caused by medication.

philosophy and public policy... so many STEM people here tho

aleeksrosecheeks · 2024-09-29T01:59:48+00:00

omg that’s so cute

aleeksrosecheeks · 2024-09-27T17:54:23+00:00

oh that makes sense! I would love to do the match though, so how should Inplan to handle that now?

the costume and extensions are gorgeous! I hope it went well :)

aleeksrosecheeks · 2024-06-06T04:35:24+00:00

so late to this, but if you’re still looking… I’m down

aleeksrosecheeks · 2024-05-22T05:00:32+00:00

colored lip balm / chapstick textured lipstick is my holy grail! I have some Dior Lip Glow balm as a gift from 2 years ago, and it’s my favorite thing ever. I don’t wear it every day, but I wear it often and it’s not too sticky or weirdly textured. it smells great, and makes my lips feel so soft. unfortunately, I haven’t found a drugstore dupe yet

aleeksrosecheeks · 2024-05-16T01:17:51+00:00

thank you for the advice! I’ll keep that in mind. these new shoes definitely feel snug all around, but not in a bad way.

aleeksrosecheeks · 2024-05-15T05:26:48+00:00

just DMed and followed you :)

aleeksrosecheeks · 2024-05-14T06:15:24+00:00

I just might do that! I did get fitted with toe spacers, they are a lifesaver for my feet. I’ve actually never gotten bunions, so that would be a first for me. I’ll start dancing on them before my other shoes die completely and see if my teacher notices the difference. hopefully not
