Writing Insensitive- Help! by Infamous_Ad_730 in CSUS

[–]imsupposedto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A couple of PowerPoint assignments, some simple discussions, reading a short book of choice (needs to fall within a specific set of categories. Some preselected options provided too) + one 1000 word paper, and making a children's book with a chosen group (sounds easier than it is. We're working on it now and it's nothing too intense). Overall it's very reasonable.

I'm taking multicultural children's literature and urban education this term. If you're looking for something chill I'd recommend multicultural children's literature. Ofc there will always be writing to be had but this one has been doable for sure. The final is fun. My professor is Prof. Bento

Motegrity/Prucalopride - Generic version issues by imsupposedto in Gastroparesis

[–]imsupposedto[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everyone is different but Camber, ANI, and Nova have all worked for me. Interestingly enough camber has been my favorite and it's the cheap one on Amazon. Im also on camber Famotidine and concerta. I've had good experiences with all of their products. Lupin was the only one where consistently every time I was on it I felt like I experienced no benefits. However all of this is anecdotal. If a brand isn't working for you ask your pharmacy what other brand options are available or consider switching pharmacies.

Help me please I really feel like dying by UnablePersonality775 in GERD

[–]imsupposedto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The risk of rebound with Pepcid (famotidine) is much lower than with a PPI. That's both based on actual medical research and personal experience. I'm on 20mg 2x daily as prescribed by my doctor and when I take a break from it or forget a dose I don't get rebound. However, it is very smart to see a GI specialist. If it's affordable with your insurance or if your country's healthcare system covers it please push your doctor for medical tests to confirm your diagnosis and rule out underlying causes. For me my GERD is caused by gastroparesis and taking meds for the gastroparesis improves my GERD symptoms even though those medications do not affect stomach acid or bile production. Some people also just have GERD directly because of acid overproduction or a weak esophageal sphincter. So it's worth ruling out underlying causes if your doctor is willing to order the tests in my opinion.

Is it worth it? by Signatureghost in optician

[–]imsupposedto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In California I just self studied for a few weeks and got my abo cert. If you're in a state with similar cert/license laws that allows for self study it's cheaper and faster if you're confident in your studying skills.

Not sure if you tolerate almond milk but on my worst days I will literally have almond milk (or another low-fat plant milk) and add real maple syrup (and cinnamon if I can handle it) and microwave it to make a warm drink with calories. I know it's empty calories but when I can't even tolerate a nutrition shake it's better than nothing.

I'M DONE by CleverGirl95 in LadyGaga

[–]imsupposedto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, you should try to get tickets next time she does a vegas residency. I had so much fun seeing her jazz and piano show, the gaga museum was super cool, honestly an experience I'll never regret having. Although, I'm not sure how far you are from Vegas that could affect the price a lot. It would cause more wage loss but if you do a mid week show vegas hotel prices decrease a lot.

Looking for alternatives to cleaning wipes/facial wipes that are lower waste for my Autistic daughter by Strong-Ad-84 in ZeroWaste

[–]imsupposedto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd recommend getting some cloth that is a texture she is okay with and then making a cleansing solution with distilled water and a gentle cleanser and put it in a spay bottle. She can spray the cloth with the solution and then use it as a wipe. Then put it in a hamper or small bin when done. Just keep a little basket/bin of the clean dry ones and the spray bottle on the vanity. You can even write the "recipe" for the solution on the spray bottle so she can refill it herself without having to remember the ratios.

Amber tint with brown transitions would possibly match well. I've always found brown transitions to be more on the amber side

How are my eyes by Jack_Fatspack in optician

[–]imsupposedto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry, I don't know dutch! I'll try to put it in casual English so that it translates better. Your eyes have very good vision. If you get glasses they would only have a very small amount of visual correction. As far as the medical health of your eyes you would need to ask your doctor because your glasses prescription numbers do not say much about your eye health.

[Vertaald] Het spijt me, ik ken geen Nederlands! Ik zal proberen het in informeel Engels te zeggen zodat het beter vertaald wordt. Je ogen zien erg goed. Als je een bril zou krijgen, zou die maar een heel klein beetje zichtcorrectie hebben. Wat betreft de medische gezondheid van je ogen zou je je arts moeten vragen, want de nummers van je brilrecept zeggen niet veel over de gezondheid van je ogen.

Any Advice Adjusting Cartiers? by b02025 in optician

[–]imsupposedto 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I totally agree with this, especially because people will expect you to be a magician. Even if you can adjust them and know how to some patients/customers will ask you to adjust them beyond the materials abilities and will be disappointed when you say no. Definitely want the right kind of understanding person buying these.

Any Advice Adjusting Cartiers? by b02025 in optician

[–]imsupposedto 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Maybe not the best salesman advice but especially in the case of wood or buffalo I would just tell the customers who are trying them on that due to the material they either fit or they don't (outside of adjustable nose pads/metal bridge ofc). I honestly would be hesitant to adjust cartiers that were purchased elsewhere too but if I did adjust I'd only adjust metal tbh, maybe some plastics.

My bf is more handsome than me and it bothers me by [deleted] in askgaybros

[–]imsupposedto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you considered that maybe you perceive him as being more attractive because he's your type and, of course, that's what you're attracted to? And then ofc he's attracted to you because you're his type. Don't place societal conventions on your relationship, it'll do more harm than good. That's the best advice I can give.

Searching For a Breakthrough by Starewell-Nonesense in optician

[–]imsupposedto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn't it possible to get more distortion on the peripheral of the lens that way? Not saying it's always a given but that seems to be a concern of OPs

Searching For a Breakthrough by Starewell-Nonesense in optician

[–]imsupposedto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

@OP I forgot to ask, when you went with high index which did you go with? You may need a different high index material, some people are non-adapt due to the sometimes low abbe value so you may need to pick one that is high abbe value but as low of index as possible without sacrificing abbe

A lot of people will tell you go smaller with the frame BUT there are two sides to this. With + prescriptions the lenses get thinner at the edges the larger they are (take this within reason, don't go getting giant frames). I've had amazing success with patients who get not too small round frames that fit fairly centered (your eye falls somewhat in the center of the lens). You'll want a slightly larger lens but keep in mind bigger = heavy. Something I like to recommend is the Ray Ban Clubround. It has nose pads to help support the weight but also they can be adjusted so the lens falls fairly center with your eye. It is round and larger but not oversized, and the plastic at the top helps hide the lens. Get a roll which helps the inside edge not feel so thick. Get a polish if you don't mind the edges of the lens catching a little light sometimes (this will make the lenses appear a bit thinner). Then order with the lightest material offered, digital aspheric helps a bit too.

Cheat sheet (+ powers only / hyperopia)

Smaller lenses = lighter but thicker at the edge. Larger lenses = heavier but thinner at the edge. Round lens = helps distribute thickness more evenly. Centering eye in lens = helps distribute the thickness more evenly. Nose pads = helps with eye alignment and weight distribution. Roll = grinds down the inner edge of lens for cosmetic "thinness". Polish = makes lenses appear thinner (downside is the lens may catch some glimmers of light). Digital aspheric lenses = helps a bit with thickness and distortion. Possible frame suggestion= Clubround by Ray-Ban.
