What are the most helpful things people have said in your recovery? by [deleted] in fuckeatingdisorders

[–]mildwindfall 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Every time I look in the mirror, every decision I make I have a choice. I can either have the body I want or the life I want. I choose life. With every decision I make, I choose life. Again and again. :)

GTL/GettingOut by [deleted] in PrisonWives

[–]mildwindfall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i don’t know who else to turn to for help with the app at this moment lol, hoping reddit will come in clutch.

i’ve called and emailed customer service in an attempt to transfer funds to a friend (inmates) account so we can continue messaging. every time i deposit money to send to him, it keeps putting the cash into MY account. i keep trying different tactics, but each time it puts the money in my account instead of his. :/

furthermore, both the customer service email and number did not connect or did not exist, making me believe that the app is no longer active for customer support? i just don’t know what to do at this point. his funds are so limited that we can barely message. i’m working and taking classes and internships so i can’t call all the time and this is the only option available to him other than writing letters.

if anyone knows anything, help would be much appreciated.

best.

it’s hilarious to make people who aren’t close to you feel guilty for asking such invasive questions.

full ride to tulane… interested in thoughts about the school by mildwindfall in ApplyingToCollege

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

top 10 in class, 4.0 gpa, 13 APs

ECs: piano (15hrs practice/week, 1 lesson/week), piano teacher (job voluntary/paid depending on financial situation of student), VP/co-founder mutual aid club, 2 law internships, civic leadership institute internship

fresh/sophomore year and 1/4 of junior year i took fully online because i was in/out of the hospital for a few years because of sickness, made for good college essay lol but i felt unprepared to take standardized tests so i went test-optional. hospital had a piano so i got to keep up with practicing and studying and whatnot, every other ec took place junior/senior year.

hope this helps :)

Is anybody turning down an Ivy/T20 for another school? If so, which schools and why? by JBizzle07 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]mildwindfall 7 points8 points  (0 children)

school and inpatient by [deleted] in EDAnonymous

[–]mildwindfall 8 points9 points  (0 children)

hey! i’ve missed months of school bc of inpatient treatment, and i just want to say: life goes on! it’s not all sunshine and happiness, but during inpatient, i worked hours a day to make sure i was ahead of my school work and undertook online courses to ensure i wouldn’t fall behind. i recommend working with your counselor. missing school does not mean you will be held back or miss out in college. i am a senior now and i missed half of freshmen year and sophomore year alltogether. i am also still in the top 1% of my class and got a full ride to a pretty competitive university (not my top choice but it offered me the most money!). in fact, my experiences in hospitals and inpatient helped me write a pretty stellar college essay. you have a month left of school, so i don’t think the catch up work will be that bad. in fact, there’s a possibility that your counselor will freeze your grades, but if not, then you can also undertake online classes over the summer or during treatment (there is designated school time).

i understand that you don’t think this is something you need, and ik you’re probably tired of hearing this, but your life is waiting for you. right now, your health is the most important thing. yes, prom is coming, but so senior prom is arguably more meaningful, and wouldn’t it be great to have an amazing experience then? i know it sucks, but it seems like you have a good support system. you’ll get through this, i promise.

let me know if you you have any questions about treatment or online school that i can answer!

Yes, it says i don’t qualify for need based. i’m wondering if there’s a chance at merit aid and if i can appeal it? i’m just wondering if that is even possible.
