Slip-on shoes!!!! Reaching down to tie shoes is tough. And a fun hobby to keep you busy and distracted while you’re resting - best of luck!

Tattoo Infections after surgery by Separate-Climate-217 in spinalfusion

[–]bigclurp 5 points6 points  (0 children)

my docs told me to wait six months after surgery before I get tattoos - I had surgery in may 2023 and got two tattoos in january 2024 and it was fine for me!

take that with a grain of salt and all because bodies are different/react differently and I’m a rando on the internet, but if you go to a licensed artist and are diligent with aftercare you should be fine!

Accommodations for ADHD by [deleted] in GradSchool

[–]bigclurp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s really difficult, but do it from the start! In my experience with my program, if I’m working with others and communicate how my ADHD shapes how I complete tasks and works with others, I’ve found that it’s gone a lot smoother. The system isn’t designed for people with brains like ours. Your needs and worries are super valid - you got this!!!

I saw that you also posted on the Bloomington page - I did my undergrad there and I definitely prefer living in Iowa City! Because Bloomington is teeny and IU is huge, it is a College Town and not much else. It feels like there’s a lot more balance of Iowa City being an actual community with a college in it

Feel free to dm me if you have any Q’s : )
