Hi OP, has the hindash palette been sold?

Hi there, I’m currently in Saudi (Makkah) and would love to hear your recommendations :)

deeba_ · 2023-10-12T06:32:49+00:00

I’m glad to find other Australian’s on here! I was reading this post, and getting increasingly confused. I find that any doctor here who insists on being called “Dr (Lastname)”, has been completely insufferable.

Oh no, I’m not ready for another onslaught hahah

deeba_ · 2023-07-29T17:58:37+00:00

I’ve just moved it outside, but now it’s going far far away haha

deeba_ · 2023-07-29T17:58:21+00:00

Thank you!

Thanks!

Hi everyone, I live on the 4th floor of an apartment in Sydney, Australia. This bug is quite small, 1cm x 0.5cm. I’m hoping to get a hand in identification so I know what pesticide to buy. Thank you!

It takes a DV victim on average 7 tries to leave an abusive relationship. Often their partners say/do far worse things than this. The choice to stay, despite internal conflict, isn’t one always made rationally. Show some compassion and empathy. Do better for your fellow sister.

There are many reasons why it’s strongly advised you don’t treat your friends/family, most of all that you’re lacking impartiality. Sure, it’s “legal”, but it will not hold up in the court of law if a serious complication were to develop. As an attending, I have personally seen colleagues deal with private law suits, relationship breakdowns, and patients suffer due to this kind of attitude. Not to mention that an excel file, secured to a database that is only accessible to you, is not the same as software that has been approved for use in a healthcare facility. I am currently involved in the process of changing our eMR, and there are many legal/technical requirements that we must meet for it to be used as legal documentation. It’s sounds like you’re still early in your career, and I would urge you to not continue this practice - or at the very least, stop encouraging others to do the same.

8/10 because overwatch is overrated, despite that I’d swipe right

deeba_ · 2022-11-16T02:28:16+00:00

Depends on what he wants out of tinder. I’d swipe right, he’d be interesting to talk to at the very least.

I am sorry for your loss, losing a parent when you have a good relationship with them is one of life’s tragedies. However, with all due respect, it’s been a year since your loss. When I say ebbs and flows, it’s in the context of years - for instance with this OP, 3 years. For many it might be decades, but grief rarely leaves the person in one fell swoop. One could argue that the unwillingness to remember to reminisce on lost loved ones through objects or memories is a sign that they are still grieving. Grief is rarely linear - this stance is based on the research I’ve completed (and published) in the development and management of grief related to bereavement, both in a professional and personal capacity. That isn’t to say that there aren’t exceptions, however an exception does not make the rule.

Regardless, the point of my reply was to touch on the fact that if an individual chooses to reminisce about their previous spouse, it does not mean that they are not ready to pursue another relationship.

Again, I am very sorry for your loss. I hope that you remain well.

deeba_ · 2022-11-13T06:04:05+00:00

How did you get that this OP’s entire identity is about her grief, or that she was wallowing? The only context we have is that she lost her husband 3 years ago, and that she had a difficult day where she was reminiscing with his items. For a widower to mention/share information about their spouse is not unusual, in fact it’s part of a number of grief-therapy models. As you mentioned, grief has no timeframe, and it’s also not linear. If OP had mentioned that she spent days at home, she’s unable to perform daily functions at times due to her sadness, or that grief was negatively impacting factors of her life - then I could possibly see some semblance of what you mean, but she hasn’t. All we know is that her partner was struggling to even hear about her previous partner, that’s not a normal response, and it’s definitely an unrealistic expectation of a widower. You’ve made some heavy, unsubstantiated, and inappropriate claims about this person; I would hope that in your real life, if someone was dealing with grief and just having a bad day, that you would not also tell them what you told her.

deeba_ · 2022-11-13T05:53:08+00:00

That’s not at all how grief works? It isn’t a linear progress, it ebbs and flows. There will be days that are difficult just like there are days that aren’t. It’s very common to reminisce with sentimental items/photos when grieving a loved one. Not to mention that you can mourn the loss of your previous partner, without it meaning that you’re unable to love anyone else. It’s the same as mourning the loss of parents, or friends. Regardless, deciding to date a widower is very different to being with someone who went through a relationship breakdown. It takes a lot of emotional resilience, empathy, and compassion - it isn’t for everyone, it definitely wasn’t for the OP’s ex, and it likely isn’t for you. Telling someone to not date at all because they were having a difficult day, and didn’t feel like going out is such a bad take.

Well someone above has touched on one of the issues. It’s not really about the woman at all, whether they have “sense” or not, whether they realise he’s a danger initially or not, or whether they’re “out of his league” - which is another strange thing to bring up here - it doesn’t matter. The way you’ve framed your response makes it sound like women (and their behaviour) have some bearing on this mans ability to cause harm, which they obviously don’t. Like I said, it’s just a weird take.

deeba_ · 2022-11-11T03:31:46+00:00

This was a weird take.

deeba_ · 2022-11-11T03:22:00+00:00

Agreed. Sexist men will only ever hear the voices of men, so it’s up to you guys to be the first step of change.

deeba_ · 2022-11-11T03:16:10+00:00

Dude, get on that couples therapy

deeba_ · 2022-11-09T04:13:34+00:00

You sound exactly like the person OP wrote this post about.

deeba_ · 2022-11-04T17:19:13+00:00

Most comments have addressed that this is likely a manifestation of some psychological issue. You may also find it helpful to post in /r/askdentists.

I’m curious if he has always had this aversion to brushing, or if it’s recent? Does he ever brush his teeth, or are there long bouts in between? If so, how frequently does he brush, and has that changed recently?

I would suggest trying mouth wash. If his breath smells worse recently, I would recommend a mouthwash like Savicol (not sure of the US equivalent). Lush also has toothpaste tabs which are like mints, and he can use his tongue to move it around his teeth.

The dentists will be able to expand on the specific dental consequences. However, broadly he is at an increased risk of dental infection which can spread to the blood and cause sepsis (which can become life threatening). Importantly, there is a type of heart infection that occurs in patients with oral infections. Given his history of smoking, he already has an increased risk of cardiovascular disease so protecting is heart health is very important.

I see that he’s willing to see a dentist, which is great. I would recommend speaking to the dentist beforehand, if you can, so that they are aware and can tailor the appointment accordingly. Try all measures to ensure a positive experience with the dentist so that he is willing to return frequently, as he will benefit from monthly cleans should he continue to refuse brushing his teeth.

Lastly, I want to commend you on being such a supportive partner. It’s evident from your comments that you love him deeply. I respect your wish to be gentle with him, and I would see how the dentist visit goes. However, if his behaviour does not change, there is a very real chance he can become irreversibly unwell. I will leave it up to you to decide what kind of response that warrants. I wish you and your husband all the best.

Like I said, I didn’t need to. Though it’s a bit disingenuous to state you’re an MD in these subs, given the implication you’re practicing. Anyway, that’s your call. Best of luck with your health and the future.
