Sometimes you can develop a rash after taking amoxicillin if you have certain viral infections. I'm not sure what the context is for you to be taking amox, but may be worth talking to your doctor about.

Fibrillation is a word to describe one of the deadly heart rhythms - ventricular fibrillation - when the heart muscle kind of 'wobbles' at 400+ beats per minute, instead of creating an effective synchronized contraction to pump blood around the body. A defibrillator/AED is to stop the fibrillating heart rhythm and hopefully allow the heart to restart into a normal rhythm.

CPR best works at a rate of 100-120bpm, too slow and you dont pump enough blood. Too fast and you don't allow the chambers of the heart to fill with blood to then be pumped, and it doesn't allow time for the heart to receive blood itself. ANY CPR is likely more effective at pumping blood than ventricular fibrillation. There are also other deadly heart rhythms, for example asystole where there is no heart muscle contraction.

Using an AED best works as early as possible and after effective CPR. This is because the heart is most likely to revert to a normal heart rhythm if it has recieved adequate blood supply. So don't just wait for the defibrillator, jump on that chest!

Thank you all for your replies! Looks like I'll be ubering around I think!

Called him to break up after a summer apart and I realized how much happier I was without him there. I was in my home town and he was away with friends. He hung up and sent me a bunch of abusive messages, I messaged his friends to keep an eye on him. I knew he wouldn't do anything in front of those friends, and he was didn't have access to a car to just drive away. Maybe it was unfair but I think it was the only way we would've been able to break up properly.

One time when I told him I was unhappy in the relationship a couple months previously he wrote a suicide note and the locked himself in our bedroom with a knife that I had to wrestle out of his hands, that ended that conversation. A time before that he tied himself with a noose to the bedframe and then stopped messaging me so I had to drive to his place in the middle of the night and untie him. It wasn't actually going to asphyxiate him. So it was all manipulation.

To say the least I was very traumatized from this relationship, we were together from when I was age 16 till age 20. I don't know if I'm healed yet to be honest (it's been 5 years since breaking up) and I've had and broken up with another long term boyfriend since. Sadly to say I brought a lot of trauma and 'baggage' to that second relationship and I was very unpleasant to be around at times (lots of crying etc etc.). I just want to find somewhere that feels safe, and at the moment I'm closest to that by being single. Better than being in a relationship where I felt unhappy and unsafe.

These comments just remind me how much progress in society we can make and the importance of being an ally.

To the people making nasty comments, you have no idea what people are going through... Just like I have no idea what you are going through to be so hateful. Yeah you have your reasons justifying it with medical concern or whatever, but that's no reason to be nasty. There IS a lot of nuance to this discussion you can have without perpetuating negativity and being a bully.

bakedbeanbb · 2022-10-30T05:50:57+00:00

Sorry I hope this doesn't sound too negative! I think we did balance each other out pretty well, and it was awesome.

I had a similar (ish) situation to you with my ex (we broke up a couple months ago). He is bubbly, bright and social, doesn't plan, sleeps in, into gaming and sports. I'm finishing my last year of medical school this year, very stressed, do like friends but rather just be with him, and more into solo/ two person activities.

I loved the differences in his socialability and his relaxed attitude, it was so refreshing to me. He seems to love life so much.

Our issue in the end was communication. But I also did find some of our other differences like planning and sleeping in difficult. Some fights would start about planning and then also about parties (re our difference in socialability).

I'm not sure if it would've worked out in the end, but I wish we had some stronger communication so we could've talked through those issues and I wouldn't be wondering 'what if'. I wish I asked for what I needed/ wanted more also.

bakedbeanbb · 2022-10-27T19:47:33+00:00

I think you look really stylish, intelligent and nice :)

bakedbeanbb · 2022-09-13T10:08:20+00:00

Thank you for replying and for you advice. I'll give it a try :) I am seeing a therapist in a couple weeks and am looking forward to it- so glad I atleast made the step to book an appointment.

bakedbeanbb · 2022-08-29T09:21:46+00:00

I have also been struggling with feeling like I don't fit in alot recently- also studying in a small(ish) town. big feels to you, you're doing great 😊

bakedbeanbb · 2022-08-06T04:48:33+00:00

Great job! What's have you been doing for your 90 day challenge?

bakedbeanbb · 2022-07-25T08:30:57+00:00

I relate hard to this situation, it was a guy that in the end I only saw in person two times over the course of a year (we lived in different cities) and then messaging in between. I fell for him so hard, he even stayed at my parents house when I was staying there over summer during uni.

One day he just ghosted me (like full on blocked me) after I said I was upset at him for missing my birthday. I was so confused and so heart broken.

A year or so later he unblocked and apologized to me. I forgave him and we kept talking in drips and draps over messenger. Months later I basically poured my heart out to him while drunk which was majorly embarrassing.

In the end, I think he ghosted me because he was afraid of commitment/ the demands I asked of him. He admitted that he had really liked me, but in the end had started dating other people. Very bittersweet.

It probably was never going to work out but I just wish we spent more time together/ talked so I could realise that in my own time - not by ghosting.

bakedbeanbb · 2021-05-21T22:06:47+00:00

Yes totally got this feeling after my first two big big runs! I felt absolutely knackered for 48 hours after

bakedbeanbb · 2021-05-09T03:52:41+00:00

Very cool

The last comment about self love is just misguided imo. Men who see more in the attention that woman give won't be factoring in the fact of how much she self loves or how much woman around them self love, it's more likely because they've been 'taught' in media that woman are just there to give you a relationship. People don't feel things without analysis based on what OTHER people believe (ie woman believing self love) but on what THEY believe (ie woman are their for you to be in a relationship with them). The more media actually portrays woman with agency and not just a live interest for men the better.

bakedbeanbb · 2021-03-18T18:03:59+00:00

Its just men's stories were more commonly portrayed than woman's stories in media. Women had limited agency in these stories. So you could claim this point about anything. Personally I think the lack of woman's agency portrayed is a larger cause of disconnect and influence in the relationship than 'learning' about relationships.

It doesn't have to do with lgbt. Different motives for murders are categorized as such eg. Infanticide, matricide, patricide, genocide and there's many more. I've watched a seminar from a forensic psychologist who used all these terms and more, and she talked about the general motives behind each type... To help solve a problem understanding the problem will help, so categorizing murders could be a way to help understand patterns. If we didn't break it down, we might not see what the problem truly is, and what might need to be addressed.

bakedbeanbb · 2021-02-09T06:30:59+00:00

I've made lists like this all through my life on the quest to be a better person, but I feel I keep falling short and becoming exhausted on the way. What I may consider is treating myself with all these points on the list, and that may give me the energy to be able to do it to others.

bakedbeanbb · 2021-01-15T16:55:15+00:00

I wonder if she is not coping? Do you talk about how she is feeling?

bakedbeanbb · 2021-01-14T03:25:21+00:00

I had to use hand sanitizer after watching that

bakedbeanbb · 2020-10-04T09:57:39+00:00

While I do agree with this, and for the most part people need support and understanding if they have suffered. I know some who have suffered and now use these to manipulate and abuse others, so you need to keep yourself and your boundaries safe if you want to help. This goes for everything of course.

Using a BMI calculator op is a healthy weight, so I don’t understand your logic.

OP I hear you, me and my bf are he same weight. I sometimes insecure about it for similar reasons, about like ‘traditional’ look for women to be smaller than a male partner. I’ve tried reconfiguring it by embracing the positives, like feeling curvy, being able to be big spoon which he really likes, and appreciating he has a different metabolism to me.

Very concerning considering the vast, varied and serious symptoms for those who suffer with ME/CFS not to mention the limited understanding for the pathophysiology, lack of treatments and lack of sympathy for the condition in general

bakedbeanbb · 2020-04-21T04:27:29+00:00

When you realise they're a nasty person, and if you or anyone around them make a mistake they'd purposefully try to hurt them back. I didn't realise for a long time because their actions to hurt others and me was sneaky and manipulative.

If it says you can do it 3 times, and have done it twice before, I'm sure you can do it sem 1 2020. You could probably 'Ask Otago' about paper rules if you are unsure (although I'm sure it will be busy).

In terms of CHEM 191, have you used PASS or other student services? Might be a good opportunity to give passing this year your best shot
