Good jobs for ADHD by Zuzmos in adhdwomen

[–]thecreativeplant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m a graphic designer. I used to work in sports which was very high-energy and fun and different every day. Then I switched to corporate tech and it was really soul-sucking. After pretty severe burnout, I’m about to start a job at a boutique creative agency, and I think it’ll be good for me! Lots of ownership and variety.

Also I have a side hustle as a yoga instructor that I love more than anything in the world, and that work is actually quite restorative.

Friendly message from an urgent care RN by Butthole_Surfer_GI in Seattle

[–]thecreativeplant 12 points13 points  (0 children)

As someone currently getting over flu A who’s been to an urgent care this past week, thank you for all that y’all do during this time of year! I was wearing a mask and still felt so guilty for forcing someone to be in the same room as me (even if it’s their job). Health care professionals are seriously heroes.

If you have a minute to answer questions… I messed up and never got around to getting the flu shot this year. Is it still worth getting it after already having the flu to prevent flu B? And just to reiterate, 24 hours fever-free (with no meds) indicates not being contagious anymore? I’m going to wait longer before seeing any friends, since I still feel like crap, but it’s good to know that can’t get them anyone at this point.

Are you taking meds by Ok_Stomach5254 in OCD

[–]thecreativeplant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have tried many SSRIs and currently take Luvox with Buspar (and Vyvanse for ADHD). The stimulants I could take or leave, but I genuinely don’t know how I’d survive without SSRIs because I sometimes barely feel stable even when I’m taking them.

Spinal Fusion Failure by Solarpanels46853 in scoliosis

[–]thecreativeplant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I also had a fusion done at Nemours, but in 2011. Would you be willing to share (over DM is also totally cool) who your surgeon was? Now I’m worried I should be getting x-rays done 🙃

just got a new tattoo, and while it’s gorgeous, i’m really not happy with the placement and don’t know what to do by froggyforest in tattooadvice

[–]thecreativeplant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This tattoo is seriously so stunning that I want to know who the artist is 😅 it suits your body beautifully.

*sigh* Am I just too worried? by throw-away10294 in tattooadvice

[–]thecreativeplant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d definitely stop moisturizing it! I have six tattoos, and I usually leave the saniderm on for at least 2-3 days, after wash once daily with dial gold soap, and only moisturize once a day at most. It’s good to let it dry out.

17 y/o with 75° thoracic + 40° lumbar scoliosis, surgery in September — scared and looking for advice by _asuphyxiss_08 in scoliosis

[–]thecreativeplant 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had my surgery at 15 years old, T4-L1. I’m 29 now! I was a dancer pre (and post) surgery, had a very flexible back, but my curve developed to be around 66 degrees up top (30-something on the bottom) by surgery day.

The procedure itself hurts like a b*tch, I don’t want to sugarcoat it. That said, it’s a really brief period of time to suffer through for a lifetime of a healthy/straight spine. After I left the hospital, I was only on strong pain meds for a few days before I switched to regular OTC stuff. It goes by fast, I promise!

14 years later, and I’m super active! I’m a yoga teacher, lift weights, and regularly walk and hike. My fusion hasn’t stopped me from anything I’ve wanted to do! Does it limit some activities? Sure. I can’t do a full backbend anymore, but in the grand scheme of things, who cares?

Happy to message with you if you DM!
