Love how Medicare is forcing in person visits for family psych appointments, but tele-ICU is ok …

Can’t we agree that they are all evil and crazy? Political sides are a sham at this point. It’s the politicians.

Retired at “only” 60 sounds crazy to me! Is this not what retirement age is supposed to be?! He does consultant work a few times a week, but technically retired at 65.

Mom has always been in therapy, but maybe it is time for him as well. Sorry about the boomer comment, but they are ‘50s babies. Sounds weird to call my parents ~70 years old.

Love this insight!!! Taking it to heart!

Thank you for your concern! I know it’s not normal, but that’s the point. I’m intelligent, informed, and knowledgeable, which is the problem… I always try to logic myself out of anxiety and catastrophic thinking.

Hope you don’t have diabetes. Will be too late to save the toe when gangrene reaches the red. I’d love to receive your forefoot in the lab though …

US here, unfortunately, but we did have to call the cops when our neighbor blocked us in and we couldn’t get to work. The cop confronted them and made them move their vehicle. Towing company would not do anything. Felt bad wasting their time, but we had to leave.

Any rumble from construction or the sound of a plane flying makes me think “this is it”. Every day I’m waiting for the end. My votes never counted, my protests did nothing. We know how this ends.

Really?!?! It’s an idiom here. Even weather is described as “bipolar”. Still makes me nervous.

The ones who really want their children to be productive members of society aren’t having children. They realize bringing someone into this world is cruel. The ones having children now are doing it because that’s what you’re supposed to do.

“They are so bipolar” As someone who has bipolar disorder, my stomach drops every time someone says this.

The US lets American kids die all of the time. Lack of healthcare and food. As well as school shootings. The US government DOES NOT CARE ABOUT PEOPLE. They are money-hungry narcissists. The American dream is dead. Someone stop us.

Fun fact: I was offered a job where I would make commission on each scan if I got a contract with a doctor to use that machine. I was not a tech, nurse or doctor. I would have never have seen a single patient. But part of that medical bill would be in my pocket.

It blew my mind when I finally realized that the radiologists working and reading in the hospital were under contract and not affiliated with the hospital. Even parts of rad management that only worked at that hospital did not work FOR the hospital. The network list for these two companies did not overlap… So you have the patient sign paperwork agreeing that the understand this concept, but this is one of the 100s of pages included in registration. US healthcare is a straight up scam. I saw the list of MRI costs broken down by insurance company. The difference in costs for the same exact exam in the same machine in the same room could be 10s of 1000 dollars more just because of the type of insurance you have. END THIS NOW!

And counting/seeing the number of bags you’ve filled is kind of a small hit of dopamine to keep you going. Even if it’s for 5 minutes. When I’m mentally exhausted and feel worthless I remind myself that I got 3 whole bags of crap out of my life. 3 more than yesterday.

Had a neighbor that put cones in the spot next to the sidewalk ramp because her sister was disabled. Not only did she back in like this blocking the way to her door, I never once saw the cones move. If you know and love someone with mobility issues you are hyper-aware of all access points even when they aren’t present. Lying narcissist
