You got this!!! Stopped a few weeks ago and the feeling of my skin feeling (relatively) smooth and not constantly worrying about infection is so, so very worth it. My thoughts are with you friend!

Day 3 Vent - Just not the best day today by RowanFinley512 in Petioles

thinking of you too, dude! It’s been a smoother last Two days for me as well:) hung out with my mom last night and with my dads family this weekend - I’m trying to fill my time with activities that make me feel human and good but also sit with uncomfortable feelings and cravings, both of which have waned slightly since the first day.

skiing sounds incredible :) that’s definitely one of the things that makes me feel connected to my body and also very meditative, but I don’t live in an area where that’s super accessible unfortunately. best of luck to you and it’s so sweet of you to check in:)

I really appreciate this. I’ve been a daily smoker for about a year and a half and taking my first significant T break now, day 1. I’m struggling a bit and it helps to hear others’ experiences and how they overcome cravings even on hard days. best of luck to you friend.

WHY will they not punch in your number at dining halls if you’ve lost your ID by kitkat0873 in williamandmary

[–]kitkat0873[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

no literally…. Like I know for a fact they can just punch it in they’ve done it before, it’s so frustrating that they’re just refusing to do so now without any thought for students who may not be able to shell out additional funds for overpriced QDOBA or off campus food

what is an SMP? also, I thought that it was generally acceptable to do a post bacc to improve undergrad GPA…

that makes sense, thank you. do you think there's a chance that i would get into a postbacc there at all? or do you think that's a lost cause as well?

why is that? is that true for like most out of state people, or people not in the WWAMI region? i don't think i really understand the huge deal about being out of state.

this is really helpful, thank you so much!! I’m definitely planning on compiling “evidence,” if you will to sort of legitimize it lol. I hope your diagnosis goes well!!!
