Dealing with depression and PMS: Anyone else? in Psychology & Therapy ·
1. First off, you’ve gotta head to your OB-GYN just to make sure there isn't some underlying physical issue going on
then,
you should probably hit up your primary care doctor on the same day to get a referral for a psychiatrist, and you'll need to be pretty upfront with them about what's happening:

"...About two months ago, I started cutting myself, and honestly, there wasn't even any specific reason behind it...."

Late Night Ramblings in Psychology & Therapy ·
Timothy Cruz6 said:Can someone walk me through my results? I've read this ten times now and I still can't make sense of it. Am I okay?

It says:
- difficulties at the self level
- personality profile is colored by an experience of high-level distress (is this how I feel, or just how the psychologist perceives me during the session?)
- personality traits are dominated by signs of personality disorder (it doesn't specify which one)
- schizotypal characteristics—bizarre thinking and perception with borderline psychotic symptoms
- Goldberg psychotism index is borderline.

The above is gibberish to me. I understood most of the rest, but nowhere does it actually say what is wrong with me. What am I dealing with?

Help.🙂

The psychologist did a pretty solid job here. 🙂
And honestly, a psychiatrist probably wouldn't even give you any meds because that would just feed the ego and let things spiral even more...

Listen, sweetie, because you're smart and have some money in the bank, you've basically just been manipulating yourself and everyone around you while making a string of bad life choices... and the biggest mistake is that you're showing up to therapy way too late.
For your own sake, and for your kid's sake, you need to be consistent with your treatment since nothing seems to be working right now.
Also, you should probably grab a referral for psychotherapy or just go see a private specialist at least once a week.

Lab results - looking for opinions [PLEASE READ 1ST POST] in Health ·
@_unlimited_: I don't think there's a direct link to blood pressure, personally. You probably need to rule out viral hepatitis first.

Lab results - looking for opinions [PLEASE READ 1ST POST] in Health ·
@Patrick Miller3:
Even if you think I'm being extra about it:
1. redo those blood tests
2. list out everything you're currently taking
3. tell me how much alcohol or any hard drugs you're using, and when

Looking for a specialist... in Health ·
Women are divine! [/QUOTE said:

1. Just pick any random OB-GYN in your neighborhood.

2. Then, if you notice something seriously weird with your discharge or an ultrasound comes back funky, go run to some private internal medicine practice and waste your sanity and money on total paranoia.

3. If things actually look unclear, just head straight to the Mayo Clinic on Broadway and they’ll sort you out the simple, right way.

4. Now can we please just close this thread?

silverotter2 said:Sorry for jumping in like this, but I was wondering if visits are actually allowed in the infectious disease ward?

I guess it's kind of weird, but why would someone get sent straight to the isolation unit right after having their stomach pumped?

Is there any way to find out if they’re actually at the hospital or which room they’re in? Like, will they even give out that kind of info over the phone?

If anyone happens to know the answer to even just one of these, I'd really appreciate it!

1. Yeah, you can visit.

2. Probably because they have an active infection.

3. Just try calling the nurses on the floor.

analogorca33 said:That’s exactly why I asked the question in the first place. From what I've seen in real life, plenty of doctors just wave you off when they see a lab result like mine and tell you to just go drink some herbal tea instead.

Thanks for everything.....


You guys are playing a pretty dangerous game here.
The worst kinds of illnesses are the ones that don't even hurt while they're moving in!
Urinary tract infections can be incredibly stubborn to treat—mostly because poor circulation is usually the underlying issue—and if you don't deal with them, they often turn chronic.

You really need antibiotic therapy tailored specifically to an antibiogram for at least two weeks, maybe even longer depending on how variable the results are, but there isn't really room here to get into all those technical explanations.

Hair dye reactions: Has anyone else dealt with this? in Health ·
Betty Foster97 said:There’s also a proven link between colon cancer and eating meat all the time.

Smoking, drinking, whatever...

So? What's your point?

☕


Your sense of irony is about as nonexistent as your grasp of basic grammar.

I guess I’ll just reiterate the golden rule for any kind of intervention on our body's largest organ:
Don't smear anything on your skin (or hair) that you wouldn't feel comfortable eating.

(since it all eventually hits your bloodstream anyway). I just caught a whiff of those branded dyes my wife uses, and honestly, it's probably a miracle she still has those hundred hairs left on her head...

Humans are pretty much mindless when they're high, so I suppose it doesn't even matter at this point.

Rhinoplasty: Experiences and recovery tips? in Health ·
gentlefox4 said:Hey, I'm new here
Does anyone else have experience getting nose surgery through Medicare? Like, what kind of results do you actually get? Help me out, people!


So, this whole "nose job" thing gets pushed so hard in the media as some big aesthetic makeover, even though it's really just secondary to the actual main job of breathing for our tiny little lives.

The surgery itself is pretty intense; it requires a full team and general anesthesia, so I’d suggest looking into public hospitals—specifically the ENT departments—where they’ll do everything properly by the book, and hey, it’s free.

Honestly, I’d recommend the ENT department at Vinogradski or any of the geniuses on that floor, because private clinics don't even come close to them in any part of this surgical process, no matter how much they fleece unlucky patients or spend on bribing journalists.

I'm not trying to freak anyone out or anything, but there's apparently some kind of link being pointed out between frequent hair dyeing and breast cancer risk.
Nobody really knows how it works yet, but I guess even this little bit of info is enough to make you think twice.
