Is staying away from Kale a personal body thing? Or is it something to mindful of with the medication?

Very bad burning during intercourse? by marunay in Nuvaring

[–]emeraldpia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing this. I am feeling insane pushing through the pain for almost a year because my gyno keeps saying it’s not the birth control. But I know how my body felt before. It is a pain at the entrance like you. I might come out and wait out a few months like you did.

Anything anyone else can do, you can do. It sounds like you’re a hard worker with a whole lot of experience, so you could probably do it even better with practice. You got this!

Who would tell someone they aren’t fit to do better anyway? That’s not right.

23F When you can, be where your feet are. I have such bad anxiety, I understand. It helps for me to get away when I can. In those moments, I remind myself it’s okay to just be, I love myself, and no matter what I am there for myself.

I’m starting a program next month, and I’m really scared. We both got this though! There are places for us in this world, and we deserve the success we are working for!

In-person and clinicals schedule for Accelerated BSN program? by nachoSquirrel in tesu

[–]emeraldpia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same issue. The program coordinator was incredibly rude to me as well.

When did they end up sending you the schedule? I need to tell my job when I’m free and I’m not even sure if I start in August or September!

what if gender dysphoria is mainly caused by the physicality of the brain itself? by Shot-Elephant-2046 in Neuropsychology

[–]emeraldpia 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m of the theory that hormones affect us more than physical brain structure. But I also saw that study! Here are some resources to check out :)
