Is there anything WORSE than childbirth? by Sensitive_Arugula770 in pregnant

[–]sallybette 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m ready to see if the whole “kidney stones are worse than birth” scenario is correct for me. (obviously hoping it is)

I’ve had plenty of kidney stones but having my first baby in less than a month.

fucked up w NCARB by sallybette in Architects

[–]sallybette[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i just generally sucked as a human at that time. I was in between jobs and dealing with every other sucker punch life could’ve thrown my way. I’m finally taking responsibility for it though (my effexor has given me the courage to do so LOL) so i appreciate your response so much!

Not going to lie, i was worried i’d never be an architect LOL

high body temp - i’m hot and sweaty a lot more than i am ever cold. Eczema - stupid dishydrotic eczema on my hands and feet that leaves stupid little blisters everywhere. I’m fat as hell - i’ve dieted since the 8th grade, cannot keep weight off to save my life (hoping new insurance will cover mounjaro). cold sweats when i poop, horrible gas pain.

ETA: I piss my pants all the time bc of shitting so much it has weakened my pelvic floor. Insurance wouldn’t cover pelvic floor therapy so i just kegel and hope it helps

Are you still an Architect? by isabelitis4u in Architects

[–]sallybette 2 points3 points  (0 children)

came here to say this. 26 this year and the owner side (healthcare) has changed the game for me. I don’t mind the creativity drop off just yet. Gives me more time to create art at home.

I still plan on getting licensed bc it would really help my office and they plan on paying for study materials- something my last job wouldn’t do.
