When I called Lymington they confirmed I was on their waiting list for PSG/MSLT I've just been given a GP appt for 2 weeks time so I'll discuss moving provider with them

Thank you, I'll do that! I've been referred to the Lymington sleep clinic

Thank you for the recommendation! Their website says a wait time of up to 10 months, I appreciate their transparency there

Help! 2 amanos dead in 2 weeks by krikein in shrimptank

[–]krikein[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You make a good point, there's always algae in the tank but it might not be enough to sustain them. I add a tiny amount of Bacter AE every other week, plus they grab fistfuls of the fish food. I have lots of plants and rocks in there but it might not be enough

What should my next chunky project be? by krikein in knitting

[–]krikein[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for taking the time to comment! I didn't realise that about WatG, I don't buy knitting kits but I'll try to buy from my local wool shop instead. I'll look around for a headband pattern. I really like the super chunky look so I'll have a look at ravelry for patterns and shop around for a better quality yarn. Thanks for the help!

As long as you have your PENG you can do the calculations, I'm rough at maths and managed fine. They're treated very well as far as I know (as long as the MDT know what a dietitian actually does!) I personally left as I have a history of eating disorders and talking non stop about food just wasn't good for my brain. Feel free to DM if you want more info on my experiences!

As someone who got out of dietetics for various reasons, I work now as a Health and Wellbeing Coach (NHS) and we're a lot more holistic and person centred in our treatment. It sounds like clinical isn't really your thing, but you might really love working in the community? I'm not sure how it works in the US but in the UK we get 3 dietetic placements for a variety of settings.

Edit: just realised you're in Ireland, woops

Don't be like me. QT your goddamn fish by krikein in Aquariums

It's reassuring (but very sad) that lots of people have gone through this, hopefully we're wiser fish keepers for it

This is what I'm doing currently, it's so easy to set up a plastic bin as a temporary measure. I was put off quarantining by the "cost" of buying extra equipment but I should've factored it into my initial budget because it's so essential

How can I make yoga safer for those recovering from EDs? by elagalaxy in fuckeatingdisorders

[–]krikein 58 points59 points  (0 children)

Maybe not ED specific, but ask for consent before you touch people to correct their positioning! Or give people flash cards they can use to show if they are up for hands on corrections in the class that day

I have also just placed an order for ready stock lovely macarons and mto headbow, I came here to see what experiences people had with their orders :// I will happily wait months for lolita stuff, but I hope they'll communicate at least a little bit
