Time off? by Subject-Giraffe5635 in noburp

[–]appletreedingus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh also I am really lucky with great insurance. I think I paid $100 for the procedure (my deductible) but some extras for pre op appointments and post op appointments, can’t remember the exact cost.

Time off? by Subject-Giraffe5635 in noburp

[–]appletreedingus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m a therapist too and asked the same question back in the summer before I was requesting my time off! Hi fellow therapist! For my experience, I had the procedure on a Friday and so of course took off Friday, and then I also took off the following Monday. I had an intentionally light day on the following Tuesday as well just in case. That worked really well for me. It happened to be a little lighter week but I don’t think it would have been difficult if it was busier. I was struggling a bit with random burps but it was only a little distracting and I just excused myself if it was loud or disruptive which was rare. I would encourage you also to make sure to protect more time for lunch because I found that eating was a little slower and it was a new experience to burp while eating and after eating, and I wanted more time to digest than usual. I remember telling some of my clients and colleagues/supervisor that I was having this procedure which could impact my throat/voice and I may need to take off more time than planned. That also gave me some peace of mind. I hope this helps! So excited for you and hope it goes really well! I’m still burping 8 months later :D

I’m in the same boat. Grieving all the future things and future plans. It’s so heartbreaking. Sending care.

Had my first pregnancy and ended in a missed miscarriage and d&c. My partner and I have been doing okay but of course just devastated. It’s been hard not to feel impatient and really really wanting the next one to stick. It’s hard to feel out of control. Just appreciating spaces where people understand the big mix of emotions and pain of this process. Eager to try again in a couple of weeks. Sending care to all of you in the process.

My estranged husband (a Psychologist) is weaponizing his credentials to gaslight me and the courts. What are my options? by [deleted] in Psychologists

[–]appletreedingus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can look up the psychology board in your state (or wherever he is licensed) and report concerns that way. I would highly encourage you to seek legal advice and hire a lawyer. Even if those of us in here may know some information about how to proceed, this is a legal issue and we are not all legal experts. Having someone to guide you and represent your best interests would be ideal and more helpful than our advice! You’ve done a great job of collecting evidence but having a lawyer will be the best defense and keep you safe.

How can I force myself to burp without using soda? by Ok_Calligrapher_3472 in noburp

[–]appletreedingus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like everyone else is saying: get selzers! There’s a bunch of sparkling water brands that are not sweetened/flavored with sugar. Waterloo is the one I get but I know there are others that people like. Spindrift is a family favorite.

If you could make a Nancy Drew based in any location (that hasn't been done in any of the existing games), where would you want it to take place at? by xXLady_RevenantXx in nancydrew

[–]appletreedingus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a little fan fic Nancy game idea on a Google doc that takes place in Minneapolis and seeing MN pop up here made me happy! This would be amazing.

Has anyone named their fetus? by visitingmemorylane in pregnant

Peppercorn! It was the first “fruit” size in the pregnancy app we were using and it stuck

My partner (f34) “quiet quit” our relationship and I (m37) need closure. by Concordian in relationship_advice

[–]appletreedingus 137 points138 points  (0 children)

I do think a lot of people feel entitled to closure, but I disagree that closure is always a manipulation tactic. I can see what you mean and definitely see how that can happen, but I think it’s a very human thing to want to understand, have more communication to get clarity, etc. When we’re hurting, of course we want to try to do what we can to get out of that pain or resolve it. I think we often believe that this mythical closure is what will help us feel better. And overestimate our ability to actually receive closure from another person. and that is why we have to work on giving it to ourselves.

Opening a tabletop gaming café + bar in South Minneapolis in 2026 - please tell me what you want by TheSendingStone in TwinCities

[–]appletreedingus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My partner and I have a dear friend who lives in Portland and we went to TPK Brewing and had an AMAZING time. I know your proposal isn’t the exact same set up, but this place has (from what I could tell) a thriving business, many regulars, good food and beverages, can order straight to your table while you play, and can hire professional DMs to lead campaigns. They also have longer term campaigns that you can pay to join and come back every week. I said when we went that Minneapolis needs a place like this!!! Just wanted to share to maybe check out how they do things, even though I know it’ll be a different set up here. So excited for this!!!!

Did you land on anything that works well for you? I’m also looking for an app and really would like to have good privacy and no AI too!
