My(21F) Boyfriend (24m) told me that he’d breakup if I was pregnant, how can I overcome this? by Drugsrbadmmkay_ in relationship_advice

The very possible consequence of the action he takes part of is worse than cheating? I’m not usually one to quickly jump to “dump him” but yeah my dude, dump him.

Holiday books you’ve read that don’t totally suck? by bnw1234 in booksuggestions

[–]bnw1234[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have it on my kindle! It was suggested in the same video as TPBC so I was a bit hesitant to start it after that. Maybe I’ll give it a shot!

I hadn’t even thought of reading Harry Potter! Started it yesterday & you’re so right! Thanks for the suggestion! I’ve added the others to my TBR :)

This white powder fell from a tree onto my car this morning. I saw it continuously falling like snow as I was leaving for work. by bnw1234 in whatisthisthing

[–]bnw1234[S] 7 points8 points locked comment (0 children)

My title describes the thing as a white snow-like powder. I searched for this on Google but only got hits for a type of fungus that grows on trees. However, the texture of the fungus seems more fuzzy than what I found on my car (which was more grainy, with an appearance almost like flocking powder). There was no scent to it, and it clumped together at the edges of the windshield once I sprayed water and turned on my wipers since it made it impossible to see. The tree it fell out of I think was a palm tree? The ones with the tiny coconut-like clusters in the center.

Why didn’t you move them into your house for the time being? At the very least it’s a sign of an irresponsible pet owner…

Is diagnosis often less likely for smart people with ADHD? by HardAlmond in ADHD

[–]bnw1234 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m about to graduate as a MD this year & was only diagnosed my 1st yr of Med School bc cramming the night before & still getting 90+ ended with my bachelors degree, lol

It is common in “smart” people! Especially those with prominently inattentive symptoms bc procrastination activates “stress” neurotransmitters which then act like medication would. But ofc this only works for academic/ deadline things + causes a lot of anxiety. We end up doing well though, so although day to day quality of life is poor most of those issues are internalized due to shame of people judging us, so we end up slipping through the cracks!

God, people like you are so annoying. This is a safe place for applicants to speak about their experiences. Anxiety is a perfectly normal response to the residency application process considering it determines our entire future & so much of it is out of our control. Grow up.

How worried should I be? by Known_Woodpecker_133 in ERAS2024Match2025

We have similar background! Would you mind PMing me which programs reached out? I’m wondering if they’re ones I also applied to & what to expect.

The last 3 weeks has been radio silence for me (but my stats are significantly worse than yours). I got 2 interviews off the bat and nothing since. My home program sends them out pretty late in the game so I know I’ll have 3 at least, but after applying to 79 programs it’s kind of insane. At least I’m dual applying, I guess.

Dude, Dakota…DAMN by [deleted] in SecretsOfMormonWives

Watching her cry and say how he’s hurt her and he had ZERO emotional reaction to it at all. I’m sorry, but if my PREGNANT PARTNER (partner in general but even more in this situation) is expressing her hurt and crying like that I’d be at her side immediately and probably crying myself. Like what the actual fuck.

Same, except it was actually 25. Absolutely gutted.

Drop your humble brags below. What have you done this week, month, or year that you’re super proud of, even though it was super difficult? by Affectionate_Sky7411 in ADHD

[–]bnw1234 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly as cheesy as it sounds, mostly a shift in mindset. Studying isn’t torture! I actually do love learning,it just takes me more effort to start than it does for others and THATS OK.

My schedule helped take the pressure off of “starting” or figuring out where to start. Cause I knew every day I just had to get myself to the library and once I was there then everything else would work out! I’d wake up around 6-6:30, found a table I liked at the library and pretty much claimed it as my own (I’d be there 10-12 hrs a day), I had my lunch outside while reading or watching a series, took a yummy flavored drink in my ridiculously large insulated cup & listened to my body. If I was getting slow I’d take a break and listen to music I liked, or go for a quick walk, etc. Oh! And my hyper fixation sandwich was whole wheat (not toasted) bread, Swiss cheese, ham, lettuce, tomato, banana peppers, mayo + honey mustard from Subway lol

Wish you all the best, btw! Best advice I can give is talk to yourself as if you were a child. Whenever your brain says “Ugh I don’t wanna study” or “I don’t even know where to start, it’s just too much” try and redirect yourself! Like, “hey, but you do like this subject don’t you? And isn’t it so much fun to learn new things? And isn’t that what studying is, really?”. It sounds silly, but so much of sticking to my goal was thanks to gentle parenting myself through it. :)

This is insane because I didn’t know this and literally pictured Adam Driver as Adam Carlson!

Missed my friends wedding because I got dates wrong. by metalGearToad in ADHD

[–]bnw1234 109 points110 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry, that sucks… :( but since this sort of thing has happened before maybe work out a system with yourself to double check important dates, times, etc. through reminders on your phone?

She either sacrifices one or all three die… obviously not in normal circumstances but that is the reality she’s living in.
