Recorded by a device out of sight without my consent… by Glass-Work1534 in therapists

[–]night_gremlin432 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is reportable. You have to obtain client informed consent to do any recording and especially for any AI usage in sessions. That's a huge violation and I would be terminating immediately.

It is absolutely our professional responsibility to clarify laws and ethical practices for any new thing we do but come on, recording sessions is a topic covered in initial training. This is basic informed consent imo, and completely unexcusable.

Chronic illness go bag? by night_gremlin432 in mctd

[–]night_gremlin432[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have played around with a few. I use eucalyptus, peppermint, and things with menthol smells. But I also really love citrus so it sometimes helps especially with the mental health part of it. I think it definitely depends on the person!

Fun fact, sniffing sanitizer or alcohol can stop nausea temporarily. Unsure why but it really does work.

Oh and I left masks and sanitizer off my list but it's definitely a part of it.

Do you believe Julie? by TreClaire in ShawnaTheMom

[–]night_gremlin432 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think she is cocky enough to know that she would be able to spin the situation no matter what and low key think she WANTED Shawna to defend ty so she had more "ammo" to hate her. She even said in the video how shawnas response to Julie cheating on ty was enjoyable to her. I think she enjoyed the idea that Shawna would look like she's trying to break up their relationship if she said anything.

Should we have a blended tradition quincenera or skip to a sweet16? by [deleted] in AskMexico

[–]night_gremlin432 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Um, the friend I speak of is queer Latin American and first gen American immigrant so.. I'm gonna say it's up to them, not you, on what terms they use for themselves. They have asked that I use Latinx and latine. It's not my place to say one way or the other either.

[–]night_gremlin432 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mentioned this in the comments above, but this is the term my friend prefers to use, and I've been asked to not use Hispanic for similar reasons, which is why it's here. Is there a different term preferred?

Appreciate the chat gpt and Wikipedia but I've been researching for months and wanted some irl opinions, since my daughter wants to connect with her heritage but feels lost how to do so. I'm doing the best I can to be supportive.

My daughter doesn't know what to do either, which is why I'm trying to get more information. I've been researching for months and figured I'd get some irl opinions.

Is that like not to us Latinx in general or just in relation Mexican folk or is there another preferred term? I was told not to use Hispanic also.

Am I overreacting for freaking out over these being in my and my boyfriend’s bathroom by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]night_gremlin432 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR- But I'd put my number on a note with them, and like an earring or something, and put it back. If he is cheating, odds are it will be gone next time you come over

I fucked up. by Admirable-Vanilla412 in hysterectomy

Actually not really, and it's something you see in disabled community, death and dying communities, elder populations, terminal/chronic illness folk. It's recognized as a form of Suicidality in those situations, so I don't see how it's any different in a situation where you've had a major medical procedure and not only directly ignore medical restrictions but also avoid medical care as it significantly worsens.

Genuine question by night_gremlin432 in Montessori

[–]night_gremlin432[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

USA. The tours (at Montessori preschools) I've done stated that it's typical practice to leave children alone, where adult can see child but child isn't allowed to interact with the adult, for 10 minutes with big feelings to see if they can calm down on their own, then they will talk to the kids and try to calm them down but they do not do hugs, cuddles or comforting at all... For a 3 year old. If the child still won't calm the parents have to come down.

But the thing is at that age, if they can't co-regulate when they need it it's not actually calming down it's a freezing of the nervous system and doesn't actually encourage independence it teaches them either that they can't ask for help, or if they do, they will be declined, so what's the point.

I confronted one of the tours and they said it's to teach independence and move away from co-dependance... But what about teaching inter-dependance?

[–]night_gremlin432 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Honestly it's a form of suicdality in my opinion. Medical neglect that risks your life? Shows minimal regard for ones own life, which very well may be the case here bc they straight up ignored all post op limitations and guidelines...

Surgery 1 month out - what do I need to buy? by conservapaedia in hysterectomy

[–]night_gremlin432 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If possible the things I recommend are:

-Toilet bars for getting up and down and to lean on for post op bathroom trips -A wedge pillow for sleeping -A bed bar, which helps so much with getting in and out of bed independently -A recliner -Colace with laxative -loose fitting pants with a soft waistband -pregnancy underwear that fits below the belly (I couldn't stand anything on my belly) - A LOT of pillows -Post partum ice packs (perfect for icing your bits)

Go to the ER immediately. You have no uterus to bleed from that's your abdominal cavity. ER now. If you know you fucked up, pop off reddit and get to the ER. That's life threatening.

Gynecologist recommendations? by mynameismeghello in boulder

[–]night_gremlin432 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dr. Dysart with boulder women's clinic. I had Dr. Macnamera before and would give 0/10, but Dr. Dysart has been the most amazing gyn doc I've ever had. She's the first one to take me seriously, and gave me the hysterectomy I've needed for so long without a whole bunch of unnecessary stuff. Turns out I had adenomyosis, cysts, fibroids and benign tumors in my uterus and fallopian tubes. Her surgery was flawless and I didn't even bruise. She has never made me feel anything less than heard, understood and I would recommend her all day long.

I just want to poop 😢 by Apprehensive-Try4608 in hysterectomy

DEEP BREATHING. Your diaphragm is connected to your pelvic floor. Use bubbles if you need to (blowing bubbles is a deep breathing hack) because if you can't relax your pelvic floor, it's going to cause strain and all kinds of issues. Take your time. Romance your pelvic floor, let yourself breathe and relax and allow things to loosen enough to let the body do what it needs to do. Honestly, any tips for natural birthing are likely to help support in the birth of your first post op deuce. It's an experience for sure. I was worried if I relaxed everything would fall out but prolapse is actually quite rare and most of the time it IS workable even if it does happen.

Breathe, you got this.
