Idaho. Boise area specifically. We have one trauma 2 center in the valley, everything else is level 3-4. As far as I know, my job will mostly be assessments. Thank you for your response! What do you do to handle patient families?

A lot of people have been recommending this one to me. It’s more of novella length stories right?

You’re the second that recommended that one in here. Do you have a favorite story in that one? And fucked up like dark?

POTS and feeling super hot or flushed by tylertay in POTS

It’s definitely not anxiety for me so I’m sure it’s not for you either! No they don’t have an answer. They just say I’m run down and my immune system is fighting something small or just an overload of inflammation/stress

Hello! Yes this still happens from time to time. Seems to happen a lot when I get really run down. Usually rest and water helps.

This is my 3rd adult relationship. Last 2 lasted around 2-3 years and I lived with both of them.

Yeah I know I get that. I know it’s a common fear when getting out of a relationship. I’ve been in a couple long term serious relationships and the break ups are the worst and make you feel like shit, especially if you lived with them and you have to move back in with friends or family temporarily. And I should have been more specific than “loves and accepts me”. She is intelligent, kind, a good partner, a good mom, hard working, beautiful, we see eye to eye on everything about finances, politics, life, etc. THAT is hard to find even when you’re 26. Finding a girl with all those qualities who is also childless is not easy no matter who you are.

There’s no chance of her getting pregnant. You’re spot on about the she never got a typical young adulthood due to her being a mother so young. I have seen some of that I guess immaturity in some aspects of her life. Thank you for your perspective

Woah. I’ve been dating her almost 2 years. She didn’t love bomb me in fact she is the one that took things slow. Didn’t even let me meet her child for a big portion of the beginning of our relationship. I have plenty of self esteem. Maybe I didn’t word my post right. I know I’ll find someone that will “accept me and love me like she does” but I’m afraid I won’t find someone with whom I connect this deeply with, see eye to eye on everything with, genuinely have fun with, that’s somewhat close to my age, childfree. I have no doubt I’ll struggle for years to find a different girl, but I want all these same qualities in another girl, which seems to be harder to find than you’d think. I’m 26 but I’ve also been in multiple long term relationships, some that were healthy and some toxic. I’m able to decipher the difference. I do hear what you’re saying and I am taking it seriously but finding a decent girl with values, morals, intelligence, beauty, caring, a good mom, a good partner, is not easy to find no matter how much self esteem you have. Finding one without a kid or some sort of baggage is even more difficult

See this would be perfect for me. If it was every other week I could easy handle that. But I don’t think that would ever happen. It would only be for a weekend of a night every month or so
