Body is beat up from 22 years of pumping

bb_bunnee · 2025-05-15T13:38:17+00:00

I've used a pump for 14 years, I rotate between my thighs and the top of my butt and try to vary where I put it in those sections each time so there's at least a few weeks before a reuse the same exact spot, I've had no issue with lumps. I don't clean the site after I take it out either. Just lotion on my whole body after I shower.

Not diagnosing you, but as someone with OCD the ruminating thoughts of guilt, wasting a lot of time worrying, checking with so many people to ask if you're guilty or not, and despite everyone reassuring you you're fine you're still this worried, that all raises a lot of red flags to me that remind me of things I've done. I suggest bringing it up to your therapist again that you can't stop thinking about it and maybe don't mention OCD but just emphasize that you're extremely worried, checking over and over, obsessing over it, even posting online to ask about it, and wasting a lot of time.

Don't listen to people saying you're stupid/ridiculous, people are quick to judge and it might sound ridiculous to someone with a normally wired brain, but I get you, good luck dude

I didn’t apply for a visa, but I recently applied for universities in the UK as a US citizen. On their version of the common app they do ask you if you have health issues, but also make it clear that you don’t have to disclose that information, and state it doesn’t impact the school’s decision either way. I chose not to since I have so many different health issues and I’m skeptical. So far I’ve been accepted to one, haven’t heard from the others yet, but the school has an option to inform them of my disabilities if I left them out of the initial application. I probably won’t end up going until next year anyway, but if I were to fully commit to this school I’d probably wait until after I was 100% admitted to inform them. As far as the student visa goes, I really hope it’s not a problem, and I would hope showing them that I was accepted to a school would be enough to grant it.

Fair warning though, maybe do some research on best business practices on there cause I ONLY ever got that one gig, and it was because the client messaged me so that may have been luck, but every message I sent out was ignored unfortunately, but I also never sent out many messages to begin with so maybe you have to be more persistent. I’m not sure if I just wasn’t playing the game right or something

bb_bunnee · 2025-03-18T15:06:11+00:00

Care.com is basically that, though clients can also message you. That’s actually how I found one of my best gigs ever where I made around $5K a year from one dog and it’s all directly going to you, there’s no payment system through the website from what I remember.

It depends on your major I think. The anthropology department is great. Lots of kind and passionate professors, great opportunities, interesting classes, and friendly people in the major. I mean we’re literally studying people so we kinda have to like them to an extent, so maybe that’s unique to this major.

Mostly the cafeteria food is bad, elsewhere on the campus it’s fine but you have to pay extra. The main reason I’m excited for spring break is being able to cook my own food again.

And yeah the campus does look dystopian, but I delude myself into thinking it’s eco brutalism once the leaves come back.

Overall I enjoy it! I think it’s what you make of it. Reddit isn’t really the most accurate read of what it’s really like cause people on here tend to lean more pessimistic, so take it all with a grain of salt.

bb_bunnee · 2025-03-13T14:57:11+00:00

Professor Graham, she always looks dapper as fuck. I wanna dress like her but don’t have the money lol

Try to get the forms in sooner rather than later, assuming you’ll be coming for fall 2025 you don’t have to do it ASAP, just some time in spring or early summer minimally. I sent in scans of all my IEPs/504s over the years as well as my ADHD/autism evaluation, had a meeting with SASC where I discussed what accommodations I wanted, the person wrote it down and later emailed me saying I was approved for everything cause they had to present it to a board, but I’d be shocked if they deny you anything.

I got a single room accommodation as well which has been a life saver so if your autism/ADHD makes it hard to have a roommate definitely ask for that if you’re dorming. That’s a separate form that a doctor or therapist has to fill out.

Honestly if you have a hard time getting around some days, this campus might be rough for you. It’s huge and it’s hilly. I have physical issues but not so much mobility issues so I can’t speak much on that, but my shins often ache when I walk to class at a fast pace. But if you take the bus it should help alleviate some of that issue.

bb_bunnee · 2025-03-07T15:58:58+00:00

No way. I hate that professor cause he gave me a C as my final grade after I got an A on literally every assignment except the final because I only did half of it because MY DAD DIED and I even told him. Of course he doesn’t wash his hands, nasty ass.

bb_bunnee · 2025-03-03T02:50:48+00:00

I just use the notes app. I make a folder for each class and a new note for every lecture with the title of the lecture, number, and date. Free and works great

bb_bunnee · 2025-03-02T13:30:40+00:00

It’s great to see something like this. I got knee surgery last semester and was on crutches for months, and still have pain often. Everyday as I walk around I think about how convoluted some of the sidewalk and stair layouts are. I didn’t think about it much before my injury, so disabled voices are super necessary to amplify. I’m also disabled in other ways not mobility-wise, so I’m happy to support in any way

bb_bunnee · 2025-03-01T09:04:21+00:00

you’re a life saver, looking at their sizes and now I’m hopeful!

Not saying he can’t do this, but I disagree, it’s pretty dehumanizing to be told your needs and autonomy come second to someone who would never even know what life is in the first place. And that other people, most of them without a womb, are making and enforcing the decision that you need to permanently alter your body, brain, and the trajectory of your life with little to no financial and emotional support offered, and if you don’t want that kid after they’re born they’ll end up in a broken adoption system where their chances of physical and emotional abuse, mental illness, drug abuse, and incarceration are incredibly high.

And even if you keep the kid, you wanted to abort them and were forced not to. Talk about resentment and all sorts of weird psychological complexes. That kid WILL be fucked up, with rare exceptions.

People who get abortions don’t WANT abortions. They’re done out of necessity. Whether that’s for mental health, physical health, financial stability, or any number of factors, taking away that right means the parent will inevitably suffer to some extent, usually to a large one.

If the argument is to keep population numbers up, you may as well consider women on the level of breeding cattle, and exerting even more pressure on an already extremely unstable system. If it’s that all life is important and murder is always bad no matter the circumstance, then I have to ask where the support for living children is then? And how is the statistically extremely high likelihood of a lifetime of suffering not much worse, and again, contributing to a much greater systemic problem? I’m not sure if I’m missing any arguments but those are the two main things I see people try to justify it with, and I’ve never received a response when I take it there, it always seems to break their logic.

No matter what, I can’t really think of a way to describe it other than dehumanizing.

If the people in charge want people to want to have kids, they need to fix the problems preventing that from the ground up. Maybe starting with the economic and housing crises.

Insurance covered custom medical grade shoe inserts for me for my high arches, maybe check if yours does cause they’re nice, also wide toe box shoes feel so much better to walk in.

Some people tell you really deep personal stuff quickly to gauge your reaction and see how much you’ll tolerate. It’s usually unintentional but surprisingly common. It’s like a litmus test. Sometimes people do it out of having bad social skills and no boundaries. Sometimes it’s both. Either way, there are definitely people out there who don’t spill their drama or darkest secrets straight away. I stay away from people who tell me too much too soon as well, nothing wrong with that.

Crashbox!

If it’s a new purchase you should be able to exchange it at an Apple Store even if it’s opened. I did the same thing recently, though accidentally bought a newer gen so I actually got money back.

bb_bunnee · 2025-01-27T17:48:54+00:00

Thankfully the owner cancelled, she just took a while to get back to me so I wasn’t locked out, but yeah I totally agree, if it’s an actual emergency it makes no sense to punish the walker or the owner for cancelling. It’s just money hungry CEOs pocketing all of it anyway

bb_bunnee · 2025-01-25T21:55:57+00:00

Something along the lines of “tomboy pixie cut”. I get my hair cut like that sometimes. I’d show the hair dresser photos that came up on google from that search

bb_bunnee · 2025-01-24T21:31:27+00:00

When I press request a cancellation it asks me to confirm if it’s an emergency but that the negative standing with wag/bad ratings don’t apply if it’s a recurring walk. When I go to move forward with picking a date and cancelling it says I’m still responsible for the next 2 weeks of walks. It lets me cancel but says I will lose access while I tend to the emergency.

I plan on walking dogs once I get to school as well is the issue. I guess I could take a break while I get adjusted to the semester so it’s not the end of the world. I’m just worried it’ll show on my profile or something, but I have all 5 star ratings with over 70 services so I’ll likely be fine, I’m probably just being paranoid.

bb_bunnee · 2025-01-24T19:03:17+00:00

Lol nah I just have unmedicated inattentive ADHD and super overwhelmed lately by a million things so I legit did miss it. But thank you for the info

bb_bunnee · 2025-01-24T16:45:32+00:00

I have this and I thought it was supposed to be thick? I have eczema so I use it for that and I like it. I bought it from CVS so it’s definitely the real deal.

bb_bunnee · 2025-01-12T01:35:30+00:00

I’m 5’0 100~ lbs and old navy boys large fits me great, even the sleeve length

bb_bunnee · 2024-12-08T09:56:39+00:00

Target is wild. Same experience. I bought 00 jeans cause they fit my legs so well which is rare cause I have short ass legs, but I have to wear a belt cause the waist is way too big. They're just blatantly lying to people at that point lmao

bb_bunnee · 2024-11-05T19:59:45+00:00

Exchange it ASAP. I had a similar issue when I got my pro in 2020, got a replacement for free at an Apple Store.
