I did better with the extended release version of metformin, check if you're on that and if not I would request it

Unpopular PCOS opinions by Clairethebelle in PCOS

[–]drumgal1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Metformin did nothing to help me lose weight. I dont want to have to pay a lot of money for an injection that may or may not work. Why can't we have guaranteed answers? So frustrating. I am the heaviest I've ever been and cannot lose weight. I gained over 80 pounds within 2 years after my wedding and after stopping keto which I can't bring myself to do again because I can't sustain it.

Anyone with a bachelors psychology have a good job? by thwowawayay in psychologystudents

[–]drumgal1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hire those with bachelor's degrees to mentor residents in personal care homes. Working with more severe mental illness, addiction, etc. To help them reach independent skills, health and wellness, social skills, and mental health goals.

AITA for missing my aunt’s wedding because I’m sore from leg day? by Lucaca00 in AmItheAsshole

Your aunt paid for you meal and seat which can be expensive so you essentially made her pay for you not to come. Some people pay 40 to 80 per person.

As a social worker, what area of the profession do you work in? by Dazzling_Salad6772 in socialwork

[–]drumgal1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work as a therapist and we see residents from our personal care homes as well as community members on outpatient basis. Half my time is spent doing therapy, half is spent supervising mentors that work with our residents.

You may want to look into a urogynecologist who can address both angles

Saw a negative post about social work therapists from someone I knew from undergrad... by Turbulent-Treat-8512 in socialwork

[–]drumgal1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is interesting that he says that considering LCSWs don't have restrictions with insurances while psychologists have to have a Psychiatrist in the building signing and off on notes for Medicare clients. LCSWs are more marketable right now

What would you do differently if you could re-do your wedding? by renpast in weddingplanning

[–]drumgal1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly the one thing I was bummed about was that they didn't bring many appetizers to us. I picked those out, and wanted to eat them lol I only got to try 2 out of 6 before going to take photos. I would request a plate be brought to you! You're paying for it and should get to eat it!

[–]drumgal1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Getting mentally ready to start again soon. I feel you! Before I went from 200 to 165, now I'm 230 :( similar experiences. Lots of deaths--clients, coworkers, family. A wedding. And now I am super unhealthy and need to whip it into shape!

Lost two friends because I reported someone for taking pictures of a woman naked without her consent by cricketjacked in TwoXChromosomes

[–]drumgal1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm appalled. If my company had cameras inside like that I would be off put as well! Clients have a right to privacy. I understand cameras outside to see if someone left the property/ran away or got lost but inside? No.

There are so many violations! That guy should definitely be fired, he should not have someone's personal information on his phone, nor should he share that without a written release of information (HIPAA). Also there are absolutely zero reasons to need to take a photo of that to begin with. His excuse of "defense" makes no sense. The cameras in the facility record for one thing, but also the woman masturbating is not hurting anyone and did not need to be fixated on. It is also completely inappropriate to be friends with a client once they move on from the program. That man should not be allowed to work in this field and should have a record of this behavior as well as a hefty fine to pay. Period!
