I had a professor in college who would spend the first half of the class bitching about Hillary Clinton and Bengazi every time we had class. I was so fed up with it I pulled him aside after class and politely asked him to get over it and to basically cut the crap so we could at least focus on what was going to be on the exam. Luckily he respected that request and we never heard about it again. But, he is a fanatic and I know he'll never be the same.

Once they see you two share similar opinions, they'll be much more likely to take you up on the offer of \"Let's talk about this a little later.\" Then I'll follow up with a question regarding something from the text.

Also, these jobs pay pretty poorly, compared to other industries.",
"Thanks for all you do, seriously. I know it's a tough job.\n\nI work as a medic in a large U.S. city, and I can tell you first hand that mental health in the united states is god awful, especially when it comes to resources. I grew up with a cousin who was nonverbal autistic. We were as close as brothers so I had a better understanding on how to deal with people with explosive emotions who could not communicate it in traditional ways. \n\nA story I tell frequently on reddit is the time i had to deal with a call that involved a nonverbal autistic guy. My partner and i had just finished up a call and were hanging out at the hospital. I suddenly here frantic calls of help through our radio from a unit nearby. So we go flying over to go back them up. The location is an extremely busy street with a ton of shops and a lot of pedestrian traffic. When we arrived, we see a crew trying to strap a large guy to a stretcher who is screaming and swinging at them. There's a huge crowd formed around the crew, and there's a woman sobbing and being comforted by other people. Two cops were there also trying to restrain the guy, cursing up a storm. \n\nAs i quickly ran over, one of the other crew members gave me the rundown. Evidently the patient is a nonverbal autistic person, and allegedly started going wild and smacking his aide, the woman crying off to the side. People attempted to intervene and he began swinging at everyone while screaming. \n\nI quickly told the crew and the cops to let him go. The patient began to calm down almost immediately. I told my partner to go shut off the emergency lights on our ambulance, and just started talking to the patient calmly. I offered my hand and he took it, and we calmly walked to the back of the ambulance. Once inside, i gave him some rolled up bandages to play with, and slowly buckled him in, and just sat with him and kept talking. \n\nSuddenly I hear a banging on the back of my ambulance and I open it up. It's one of the cops and he's fuming. He demanded to be let in, and said he had to cuff the patient as per protocol. I informed him that he's my patient now, and there's no need for handcuffs. The cop went on a rant about how the patient assaulted the woman, and how he was also assaulted so charges were going to be brought. I again informed him firmly about the patient's mental condition, and that the cop was not allowed to come into the back of my ambulance. The cop was livid, and ended up radioing his supervisor. \n\nThe sergeant arrived, and was fortunately someone I had dealt with many times before. He calmly listened to my side of the story and the cops side. Turns out that the aide that was with the patient was not taught anything about dealing with patients with mental disabilities. On top of that, this was her first day with the patient and was supposed to be a \"temporary\" position. Witnesses then informed us that the aide was smacking the patient because he kept trying to wander into different stores. To give you a visual, the aide was 5' 4\" and the patient was 6' 0\" almost and just solid. \n\nOnce the sergeant was satisfied that i was at no risk and I was comfortable taking the patient uncuffed, he politely asked if the another officer could sit in the back and escort us just in case. This was a fair compromise, and didn't seem to phase the patient at all. The original ambulance on scene ended up taking the aide to a different hospital. I took the patient to our hospital, and throughout the whole ride, he was calm, making different noises, and was content with opening up the packages of bandages I gave him. He also continued to hold my hand throughout the ride. His mother met as at the hospital, and the last I heard, no charges were filed, and the patient ended up getting an aide who was actually trained to deal with people like him. \n\nSo thank you for all you do, and I understand there's a big risk when dealing with this patient population. It's people like you that are needed to help separate the image of a \"monster\" that's labeled on a lot of these patients. Stay safe, and keep up the great work. \n\nTL;DR Mental health support sucks in the U.S. People like OP are necessary to bring changes and true support in the field. ",
"I'm sorry. You have \"severe\" PTSD after having your hair pulled out, but continue to work in the environment that cause said PTSD? I think we, as a society, are vastly overusing the term PTSD. I am not saying you might not be on edge after having your hair ripped out, but PTSD??",
"I was part of a traumatic incident. I still have nightmares about this person coming at me. I have been clinically diagnosed with post traumatic stress disorder. I think PTSD is used so widely with people who have been in combat that other people who have been through traumatic incidents are considered weak for saying they have PTSD. I work in a special education environment with higher functioning people who do not have severe behavioral concerns. “On edge” does not even begin to explain how I feel. I still have a very hard time with my back turned towns people in public for fear someone is going attack me. Lots of people suffer from PTSD...all shapes, sizes, backgrounds. Educate yourself on the term before passing judgement. ",
"Who are you to judge from behind your keyboard? I mean obviously you are a badass. \n\nI think we as a society can't see the forest through the trees. ",
"I'm not trying to be a dick and trust me I am very well educated on the term. I do not associate PTSD with only combat prone individuals and believe it can stem from a number of situations. I am not sure why you felt the need to point out people of all shapes, sizes, and backgrounds; but ok. They point is, if you had PTSD, you essentially would be in therapy to help you cope with said disorder. The first thing the therapist would tell you is to not subject yourself to the very atmosphere that caused said PTSD. You are more than welcome to google any diagnoses of PTSD and ways to treat it. Here is one: \"People with PTSD continue to have intense, disturbing thoughts and feelings related to their experience that last long after the traumatic event has ended. They may relive the event through flashbacks or nightmares; they may feel sadness, fear or anger; and they may feel detached or estranged from other people. People with PTSD may avoid situations or people that remind them of the traumatic event, and they may have strong negative reactions to something as ordinary as a loud noise or an accidental touch.\"\n\nI am not trying to take anything away from you and I too have worked in the same population. I have worked with youth and adults with mental disabilities. I have worked in both a detention center and a mental health residential facility for youth with behavioral and mental disorders. I have been attacked as well. Again, I am not taking anything away from you and your traumatic event. However, if you talk to anyone that does in fact have PTSD, the very last thing they do is put themselves back in the very situation that caused the disorder as it will not only recreate the event, but can lead to an even more damage to their psyche. They think about the event nonstop. They are essentially crippled and need help to cope with the issue; professional help, not reddit.\n\nYou more than likely have Post Traumatic Stress. I, in my opwn option, just believe it is dangerous to continue to misuse DSM-IV terms and apply them willingly to everything. You should be able to appreciate this as you work in a mental health field.",
"You are so brave. I worked with mentally challenged individuals and was attacked myself. The boy was much bigger than me as well, however, I was assigned to him and we were in a large room with other individuals and counsellors. I was not hurt too much, nothing like you endured, but he came at me pretty hard. A bunch of male counsellors restrained him and I had to be removed. I couldn't return to the work. I tried, but was too scared. I decided to work with my little brother instead, who is severely autistic and as gentle as a butterfly. I commend you for returning to the work. We need more people in this world like you! ",
"I am in therapy and love it. Again, I am still working with people with disabilities, but not in a population where I don’t have a fear of being attacked. Teaching is my passion and the only thing that keeps me going. If I didn’t have teaching, I would be in a much worse place mentally. ",
"Great question White Knight. I am a person who is educated in the field and do not appreciate when people claim disorders that they truly do not have. I believe it over saturates the all ready large ratio of Americans who have mental disorders. Pharmacies are cleaning up because a psychiatrist would rather pill someone up as opposed to correctly diagnose and treat them with good old fashion therapy. Our current society of crybabies want attention for everything and want to blame everyone. This in turn disenfranchises the true victims, with the true symptoms, that truly need help. I am not saying she in fact did not have a traumatic event occur to her or something that she felt was traumatic. But to claim PTSD and then throw herself back into the same situation daily does not fit. I was not judging her as a person, I was judging her inability to self diagnose. You are more than welcome to disagree with me, but I am betting my 20+ years experience and four higher education science degrees against your reddit comments and ability to google vague terms that I know more than you. ",
"I was on leave for a few weeks. When I returned I was in a completely different assignment. I left the job at the end of the school year and didn’t return. I’m in a new class, school, and district. Still have nightmares, but working on talking myself down. My students now are not a threat behaviorally. Mainly academic concerns! ",

"Good on you for sticking with doing what you love. One question though, I know it's sounds stupid, but - Did it hurt after it was torn out?",
"I think I caught you at a bad time and I admit I was a bit antagonistic. \n\nThere is however some irony to you defending yourself from my accusation of being judgmental; by ultimately being very judgmental, assuming, and condescending. \n\nI am an asshole. Not a white knight. Don't get it twisted. \n\nI am personally also against the pharmacy and psychiatry approach to any problem. I believe in psychotherapy and love Freud as a philosopher (not a psychologist). I am however at a loss as to why any of this is relevant. \n\nI don't have to google terms, I may not have as many degrees as you, but I am very well read. Years ago I did do a google search; the results showed that a majority of graduates with a bachelor in psychology have a history of mental illness themselves. They are first seduced by the field in the quest to analyze their own problems. Take from that what you will. \n\nWe all take ourselves a bit too seriously in this day and age don't we?",

"Dude really? The comment referred to the fact that we have much more strength than we realise (i.e. hidden strength), which is attenuated by social norms/evolutionary self preservation that prevents us from hurting each other or ourselves. The example given was that we could bit our finger off easily, as referenced in the above comment. There is no such untapped strength. This is not a 'wild misinterpretation'.\n\nHere is the original comment:\n\"It's because brains are subconsciously trained to control our strength to stop yourselves or others from getting seriously hurt. An example would be that you could try to bite your fingers off, but it isn't that easy, is at least what you think. It actually is about as hard to bite fingers off as it is to bite a raw carrot. So all of us probably have the capability to easily yank off a large chunk of someones hair, it's just that our brain stops us.\"",
"Exactly. The comment doesnt say anything about untapped strength. Thats something YOU made up so that you could argue with this post for some strange reason. OP was clearly not saying that people are super-sayins, rather, our brains will generally not allow us to perform actions that will cause self harm. It may be a bit confusing how they worded it, but the way you interpreted it is vastly different from what they were clearly trying to say. I mean, does it take untapped strength to bite a carrot? No of course not..."

"He has focused on cutting red tape and meeting with high level business executives to see what the road blocks are to employment and is working on reducing them. He has made it clear that unfavorable trade deals will either be improved or will end. He passed the largest tax break since Reagan and shaped it to make it easier for American companies to bring profits earned abroad back into the US and to make foreign investment easier. He went to Davos and declared the US open for business.\n\nTo be clear, he did not do this to lower black or hispanic unemployment. He did this to lower ALL unemployment which is now at an 18 year low. That is a fundamental difference between republicans and democrats. The Republican party was formed by pulling the anti slavery factions from all of the existing parties while the focus of the Democrats was to keep slavery going at all costs to include the bloodiest war in our history and the forming of the KKK. The Democrats currently do and have always said that we should be divided by race and that there should be different rules for different races that is fundamental to how they were formed and what they still preach. The Republicans were formed by people fighting to treat everyone the same regardless of race. That is why Trump says he will be President for ALL Americans and that means ALL races not just certain ones that are told that they are victims or more victims than some other race by people trying to divide us for their personal gain.

Personally, I had mouth sores, bone pain from the leeching of white blood cells from my bones (brought on by the shots I gave myself in my stomach to do just that), hot flashes from hell, hemorrhoids, bloody diarrhea, nausea, weight gain and a fat face from the steroids, muscle loss from sitting on the sofa, and heartburn so bad I went to the ER one night because I thought my heart was dying from the chemo. \n\nNot to mention the hair loss (it should be obvious but you lose *all* your hair - everywhere - yes, even *down there*, even your nose hair which can cause a 24/7 runny nose). That's just cosmetics but when the day comes that you step in the shower and your hair, which you were expecting to lose anyway, just comes out in *clumps* in your hands and you break down crying because you didn't expect it to happen so abruptly, as if every hair on your head just let go at the same time - it can be jarring. Then you call your best friend who hurries over with the electric clippers and cradles your head as your eyes get damp as she gives you your first buzz cut. \n\nIn addition, my chemo was neoadjuvant, which means it was necessary to shrink the tumor prior to surgery, because it was so big the surgeon didn't think she could get clear margins if I had surgery first. \n\nSo I BEAT CHEMO first, then had surgery, then radiation, and *then* I beat cancer. \n\nBeating chemo is very, BIG deal.

One of the fun side effects is random severe IBS-like episodes - severe abdominal pain for hours, followed by hours of diarrhea. \n\nHowever, my good days currently far outweigh the bad.

Fetch meant he would have to stop and pant between every other throw. These aren't little things.

So, it was postponed after I spoke with my oncologist and then made a \"deposit \" at the \"bank\" in case I wanted kids some day. So all that delayed my chemo.\n\nThat said...

Today Im alive and kicking.\n\nThe doctor reluctantly told me that the kind I got was the best I could get. She explained that doctors shouldnt say cancer is good but this one responded very well on treatment. \n\nIf i remember correctly I had stage 4. I did not know this during treatment or I just repressed it. \nTreatment was 3 kinds of chemo each time. \nI did not feel sick or anything. Yes, I lost my hair on my head but eyebrows were intact. \n\nThe doctors seemed to think that being in shape is good. Im not IN shape but I try to work out. They believe it helps to cope with the treatment. Nothing proved, scientifically, as far as I know. \n\nThe only noticeable downside for me was that food did not taste anything after each treatment. Took about a week to get taste back. Just in time for my next treatment. \nThe only thing I really enjoyed was this cheap ass heavily marinated chicken. \n\nStay strong and be positive.

"Normally the people who care are the ones who have lost people to cancer. It’s like the people who have lost a parent to suicide and constantly see the world selfish thrown around about the act (which logically sure, but suicide isn’t a logical choice. If it is, then it’s not selfish). If it’s illogical, that person wasn’t actively choosing to be selfish and their surviving children don’t like to constantly see that in their last moments, they were selfish as parents, implying that they’re less than. It’s similar here: people who have lost loved ones to cancer don’t like the phrase beat it because it implies that their parents lost it because of their own fault.\n\nThat said, i agree with you that a cancer survivor’s post is not the ideal place for such a discussion.\n\nOn the flip side, the people who say they “beat cancer” are likely just wanting to feel empowered and in control after surviving a deadly disease that was no fault of their own, so it comes down to two sides of the same coin trying to make sense of it all.",

While that is a valid discussion to have, it doesn’t belong here, in this post. Just as the surviving loved ones of cancer victims don’t like to hear about beating cancer because it makes them feel like it was their loved ones fault, cancer survivors like to make sense of something that wasn’t their fault by taking ownership of the victory. Add in that they had to have a good attitude about it and do everything the doctor said, they have every right to say they beat cancer to feel some pride. \n\nOP, congratulations and best of luck on everything you encounter.

You can fuck off a second time with the all Republicans are bad bullshit. Dude, you are so deep in your ideology that shit-kickers and overalls wouldn't keep you clean. Democrats are at this moment fighting against a release showing FBI abuses of power. WTF Democrats, what about transparency? Same with Hillary destroying 40k emails and the server instead of turning everything over to the FBI. If Trump did that every news agency would be screaming bloody murder. Last tantrum was over Trump calling some places shit-hole countries. Guess what, many countries are shit-hole places. Next time you go to Jamaica leave the idyllic resort and venture out. India has a major problem with open defecation, Even the police poop in the streets. Much of the world is still dirt roads, tin shacks, no clean water or electricity, mass corruption, mass poverty. Should he call a country a shit-hole? No. Does it make him racist? No. Did you know Indonesia is literally covered in garbage? The beaches, ocean, roads, parks, everywhere. I asked about it in the Indonesia sub Reddit and the response ranged from blaming Muslims to why bother picking it up. In Mexico you have to worry about drinking the water and corrupt cops looking for bribes. In Iraq women are treated like a pet and Shiite and Sunni have open hatred towards each other. Much of Iraq has dirt roads and mud homes. Oh but Trump can't be honest about the world! Let's all pretend that all countries are like little USAs all pretty and modernized. ",

"It scares me that people celebrate surviving the “cure”. Chemo sucks.",
"Yeah. We are all kind of being nit picky jerks, but you “survive” a horrific car accident. I get the argument that you don’t “beat” cancer, but I imagine although it doesn’t totally rely on someone’s attitude and willpower, it must suck to deal with. So, if you do survive, it was a process and there is a sense of pride. I understand the opinion that\nBy saying that we might make those that don’t survive feel like they lost, but we literally use that phrase when cancer gets people. We say things like, “they finally lost a long, hard battle with cancer. They fought hard and never gave up, though.” So yeah, because we are human, we want to feel in control. We fight, we win. We beat cancer. ",
"😂😂😂 And if it did, when is the chemo-induced cancer coming?",
"Nice! Glad it worked for you. I hope it works for others suffering as well.",
"ackchyually, it kills cancer because it kills fast growing cells. That's also why it makes your hair fall out, causes nausea and vomiting, and kills some of your bone marrow. They are the fastest dividing cells in your body.",

"Gotta use a light pencil before you use the marker. Then you don't have to crowd the numbers at the end!",

"There is a lot of cancer that is not \"fought\" in any meaningful sense. I had lung cancer, for instance, and it was quickly and easily treated. No chemo. No radiation. No side effects. It's almost as though I never even had it. To characterize that as me \"beating\" cancer is pretty silly. ",
"Username checks out",
"To me, beat means you won. You fought, you had moments of despair, but you never quit trying. You didn't just lay down and lose your will to survive even though it was really, really hard! You kicked chemos ass! You are badass af! ",

"Ive also got Diffused Large B Cell Lymphoma. Im 36. Mediastinal and in kidney and colon. Im being treated and am up for a bone marrow transplant. My sister is a perfect match. Turns out that I have a strange genetic immune disease that is causing a virus in my body to run rampant and in turn that is actually keeping my lymphoma from being treated. It wont go away. Otherwise Lymphoma is very treatable. Especially aggressive ones like Diffused Large B Cell. The doctors were baffled as to why they couldn't cure it. My point is, don't be discouraged. 3 years ago I was quite literally almost dead. I was in a coma and the doctors pulled me around and I am alive and reasonably well. If this transplant works I stand a chance. Don't be discouraged my friend. Lymphoma isn't always a death sentence. Nothing is guaranteed with cancer but Lymphoma is one of the most curable cancers there is. The tumor in my chest (lung) 3 months ago was about the size of a tennis ball. Chemo wasn't working. After radiation it is shrinking. Hang tough. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions.",

" You will remain ignorant, but give it a few generations and those future people will be miserable. Europe had a good thing going, being that populations were pure. America has been plagued for a long time, so we're used to those issues. It's the cause of all our issues, overpopulated prisons, shit hole crime ridden areas, poverty. the high cost of health care is due to our pathetic welfare system taking care of the trash, so the bottom feeders can continue to reproduce while people worth a shit either don't want to or can't afford it.

"Congratulations!!! You are so strong!!! I had stage 2 ductal carcinoma, triple negative. Made it into a few lymph nodes. I had neoadjuvant chemo, two rounds, five different chemos. I went to gym, ate well and meditatated. And had plenty of cannabis regularly for the first time. When they did the double mastectomy and searched the tissues they found no cancer cells left. They were baffled that it responded so well. That didn't even know if I needed radiation so I joined a study. I had a diep flap 3 months later (they cut your belly fat out and make 2 boobs). I also had them take the ovaries as I'm BRCA1 positive. Then 3 more reconstructions. Last month I asked the oncologist if I was in remission and he said \"No. We consider you cured.\" I didn't know that was possible. Now I just have residual crippling joint/bone/muscle pain all over but I'm working on it. Keep doing what you're doing!!! Xo",
"Congrats! Hope that's it, and you are cancer free forevermore. May this be the last cancer treatment you ever have to endure! Good health to you!",
"Cancer....... you beat cancer, not chemo. ",
"Truth, my cancer was asymptomatic so the only trauma I remember is from chemo, not the cancer itself. Chemo really is a feat to get through... it's poison! It got so bad for me that I had \"anticipatory nausea\" and I'd start throwing up the moment they set up the IV. I hope one day there will be a less barbaric standard to treating cancer!\n\nEither way - congrats for making it out!!!",
"Nice story",
"Yes. It's basically a poison that kills cancer cells faster than your normal cells but it still kills them. It also completely rapes the immune system. To my knowledge it's also the best treatment for a variety of cancers.\n\n\"Beat chemo\" remains a dumb statement. \"I beat Tylenol yesterday. I am struggling against caffeine as we speak.\" That's how it sounds.\n\nEdit - Not surprised by the downvotes. Morons.\n\nAlternatively, \"I survived chemo\" or \"I completed chemo\" sound perfectly fine and rational.",

He's a a creepy fucking pedophile with a history of being a flat-out fucking fraud. And you support him. Fuck off, dude. Jesus. \n\nAnd he's not racist? Then why was he sued multiple times by the DoJ for racial discrimination? Why did he even hire Bannon the fucking white nationalist in the first place? Why did he condemn pro athletes protesting police violence more than actual fucking neo nazis? I'm sure all of that is just a series of convenient coincidences that don't add up to anything at all. You're the delusional ones here. You and the party you support are a fucking joke, and you've turned this entire country into the laughing stock of the world.

This is not the end of your fight.\n\nIm 4 years in remission and the real effects are just coming out to play now. \n\nGoogle PCCI, and chemos effects on your heart after time. Be smart. I'm an extremely healthy and active dude and it's fucking me up a bit.\n\nTreatment was easy on me, the thing that really fucked with me was feeling like I was losing my absolute mind. Panic attacks because I was forgetting who I was, and thinking my brain was going.\n\nI implore you to keep your mind healthy after chemo, exercise regularly for your heart and lay off alcohol for a long time.\n\nMy issues aren't common in everyone, according to my doctor about 40% of people suffer from post chemo cognitive impairment but that 40% suffers greatly. There are things you can do to lessen your suffering if you are one of those 40%.\n\nAgain I seriously want you to celebrate because I know on April 4, 2014 at 10:11am I was the happiest guy in the world.

If you get regular checkups, pay attention to your body, and be persistent if you don't think things are going the way they should, that's the most you can do. Other than trusting your health care team is on the right page, your only involvement is to suck it up and show up for treatment/surgery. Staying positive helps with what lies ahead, but it's no indication of outcome. You can only assist in the outcome by being informed of all the aspects of your cancer, and it's treatment, and following your health care teams orders to a \"T\". Even then, just like any endeavor in life, you can still have a bad outcome. But you did all you could to avoid that. If you still succumb to the disease, if wasn't for a lack of effort on your part.

They confirmed it was Hodgkins Lymphoma with the biopsy. Then I went for my first PET/CT scan. After the first time the only way to tell if it was back was with a scan. Making a whole year clean was a big deal. Ill be going for a scan for the first time in awhile in spring. Fingers crossed I’m still clean.

Found out a week before his scheduled bone marrow transplant that he had a new mass in his chest that wasn't there 6 weeks prior. Biopsy, chemo, bone marrow transplant (his little brother was a perfect match) and now the shitty part of just waiting 9 hours away from our family to see how it worked. \n\nYea, cancer sucks.

"Hello fellow cancer survivor. I was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia back on June 16 2002 (My brother bday and fathers days) , when I was 14. I have been through a lot since then, but had a Bone Marrow transplant almost a year later on Friday, June 13th 2003. Friday the 13th has since become a lucky day for me. I ended up getting Graft vs Host Disease from the transplant, which ended up breaking me out in open wounds. Doctors said about 80% of my body was covered in them at its worst point. Today I look like I am a fire survivor because the wounds look like scars from a burn. It still feels hard to believe it was over 15 years ago. There was at least 4 times Doctors told my parents that I might not make it through the night, but yet here I am. The best thing I always say to people is try to stay in good spirit. Keep your friends and family close, as I honestly believe they're a huge part in why I am still alive. I had amazing support from them and even my hometown. I am kinda bad at writing longer things like this as I begin to stray away from my main topic. With that said I think I will stop here with one kast thing. Just keep fighting and never give up hope! I'm sure you would agree as a fellow survivor of cancer.",

"Personally, treatment isn't that bad. I'm no fan of needle sticks, so getting an IV put in is about the worst of it. And even then, once it's in, it's in. ABVD, the common cocktail for lymphoma, includes Bleomycin, which also requires a dose of benadryl, which I hate, so being irritable and drowsy are no picnic, but it provides no real discomfort. However, my last PET was negative, so my oncologist dropped Bleomycin from my treatment. So yeah! no more benadryl!! \n\nThe biggest hurdle is boredom. I normally go alone, so I make sure my phone is charged and I am fortunate the place I go to has good wifi. Reddit and Imgur have been tremendous distractions. \n\nNah, treatment days are pretty good. What sucks is the next four days, for me, at least. I have my treatments every other Friday. I get a little run down on Saturdays. Sundays feels like I got beat with a Tired stick. I'm just as tired on Mondays, but I also get nauseous. Not 'puke my gut out' nauseous, but 'hey, I feel like crap' nauseous. It's been getting worse with each treatment. This past Monday was the worst so far as shaky stomachs go. I get slightly more energy on Tuesdays but the nausea is almost as bad. \n\nWednesdays are when I turn a corner (and today is that Wednesday!). My energy levels return and nausea is replaced by ravenous hunger pains (which can start on Mondays as well... imagine having an urge to cram food in to a queasy environment). \n\nAs the week progresses, things steadily get better. By next Monday, I will be on top of the world. Next Thursday and Friday (my next treatment) will be my best days yet. Then I get to do it all over again. \n\nThree more months. Just three more months....",

"I understand about worrying about lymphedema or, as my great aunt Fern put it when she had it, \"the big arm\". But you gotta do what you gotta do to live, so....you pay your money, you take your chances.\n\nAfter that surgery they told me not to shave my underarm (in case I nicked myself) so I didn't. They told me not to fly without a compression sleeve. No blood pressure taken on that arm, no donating blood from that side, wash all cuts immediately and use antibiotic ointment, stay away from playing with kittens (sharp claws) and roses and yadda yadda yadda.\n\nI might still develop \"the big arm\" but it hasn't happened yet. I shave, I play with kittens, I don't wear a compression sleeve when flying. I still don't have BP or blood taken from that arm but that's pretty much my only concession.\n\nGood luck to your mom, I hope she sails right through it, does her physical therapy exercises and gets her arm range-of-movement back quick. I still have some numbness on the back of my arm all these years later but it's nothing I can't live with and it improved greatly in the years immediately following the surgery. \n\n<3 <3",
"Thanks! They're offering her two procedures. They remove all affected nodes, or they only remove a few, test them, and remove the rest when they come back positive. The latter option is new, but decreases the risk for edemas/\"overtreatment\". \n\nIt's weird, I haven't spoken to anyone who had issues (I used to work for the cancer council, so I've spoken to a lot of former patients), and none of them ever mentioned edema, but for some reason my mom's super worried about it and seems to be reading the horror stories only. \n\nI think it's more because you already have so little decisions to make (basically, they plan out your treatment and there's no point in arguing since you're not a doc), and when you finally are in control of something, you can get a bit OCD with it (my mom at least). If it was me I'd cut all of the possible threats out of my body ASAP ;)\n\nThanks again!",

"Another piece of advice from a college student in an art major (American, so not sure if schools in New Zealand are compatible for this, but..) : tell her that if she finds herself with any extra room in her schedule, don't underestimate the artistic benefits of intellectual stimulation! Art history classes expecially (and I hated history in high school, but these made me love it), but also literature/philosophy/history classes have affected my art probably more than any of my studio classes. Take as many as you can!",
"Those clouds look like literal dog shit. Improving the background would be a quick and effective way of improving the composition as a whole. \n\nDog. Shit. ",

"It's difficult to find a front page of any default sub that doesn't have multiple karma-farming bots there, often working together. Since they're known to hurt redditors and reddit, the admins say that they view these types of accounts as spam and they are against site-wide rules. For my part I can confirm that the admins are pretty quick to ban or delete the accounts once they are brought to their attention. \n\nBut why not have a section about them on the FAQ page? Why not help promote eduation and awareness about them so that we can learn to identify and report them? Well, they also increase page views and appear as unique users.

"Hey, great job! I've been dabbling with occasional fasting myself. What were your fasting intervals?",
"There wasn't any structure. I would usually skip breakfast and lunch. I only ate dinners and small snack before bed. Some days I would just eat normally. But I would go anywhere between 16 to 84 hours without food, but more so on the shorter end. I did not feel healthy after that 3.5 day fast, so usually my long-term fasts lasted 22-36 hours.",
"Thanks for the reply!",
"hey I did the same thing for about 6 months I went from 210 down to 125 in that small period of time but I also was hiking lots to maintain the healthy muscle but I became way too light! good for you man takes will power to fast!\n",
"Very impressive! Nice work!",
"That's some damn weight loss! I'm at 11% bodyfat and wanted to get to at least 9% and stay below 10 while I try to build muscle. I admittedly haven't been working out regularly. Just 2-4 times a month. lol.",
"You gonna go for shredded or keep the ripped look. Anyway, keep going!",
"My plan is to get down to 9% bodyfat. The game plan after that is to build muscle. I would need a higher calorie diet to do so, so I will also gain fat, so if I get above 10% again, I'll fast until I get to 9% and then repeat. But ultimately, I don't care how big I am. I just want to stay below 10%.",
"Fair enough, I wish you good luck"

By use of multivariate analyses, we predicted that increasing texting volumes resulted in more than 16 000 additional road fatalities from 2001 to 2007.\"\n\n>The way I look at this is that if you can do a thing and nobody gets hurt, why not?\n\nBecause you can do a dumb thing a hundred times without an issue.

It doesn't mean that phones in cars should be illegal. Public education is the answer. Actually posts like this are helpful. I just don't like the direction people take as to the solution.

"He was interested in the effect of tattoo ink on syphilitic lesions, initially (in the early 20th century), and then as time went on he just appreciated the art. He often helped fund tattoos for people who couldn't afford them, as long as they were okay with donating them postmortem. He preserved the tattoos the only way he could - on the original canvas.\nYou can go see these at Tokyo University's Museum of Pathology. It's really fascinating.",

Barring that you'd want to go to the tallest building/tower/hill/mountain you can so you can really see a far distance.\n\nThen you need a decent zoom lens to bring it closer. From very far away the moon looks a lot larger at the horizon (and it helps to have buildings or trees as a reference). It's an optical illusion, and you won't get a pic like this on your phone, you need the zoom. The further you are and the better the lens the better the effect- I'm not positive [this](https://i.pinimg.com/736x/48/21/5f/48215f4886a614b54c09c3a98582bd61--beautiful-moon-beautiful-places.jpg) isn't shopped but if it isn't the photographer has a killer zoom lens and a better camera than mine- the moon is VERY bright and will drown out all the other stars. \n",

"Please be under no illusion that I am intelligent, your question just caused me to look up the answer and I think it's neat enough to share. 'blue' replaced the original 'belewe' which means 'betrayer' as it was the second moon of a month it betrayed folks by making them fast another month for Lent. \n\nIt's also neat that each month's full moon has a name, with January's first full moon being the 'wolf' moon. :)",
"“The blood moon rises once again”",
"What focal length were you using? I got a pretty good shot with my 200mm, but not as nice as this.",
"For those who are wondering, the \"blue\" part of this is an arbitrary and pointless calendar based \"phenomenon\" -the second full moon in a month- that is no more interesting than the day of the week on which this event occurred.\n\nWhat is actually of interest here is just the coincidence of a super moon with a blood moon, both of which are actual, physical phenomena, rather than games with calendars. Basically, we get a big red moon. Big, because the moon is close to us in its orbit (which isn't a perfect circle), and red, because the Earth's atmosphere -in between the sun and the moon- is getting rid of the blue light en route to the moon.\n\nThe \"blue\" is nothing, and it's stupid. It just allows people to pretend that this is more rare than it actually is. Well, it is technically more rare, but only for an arbitrary reason. (It is 7x as rare if we also include the day of the week on which this occurs, which is just as stupid and pointless a metric as considering whether it falls on a \"blue moon\").",
"[According to Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_moon#Origin_of_the_term) \n\nThe suggestion has been made that the term \"blue moon\" for \"intercalary month\" arose by folk etymology, the \"blue\" replacing the no-longer-understood belewe, 'to betray'. The original meaning would then have been \"betrayer moon\", referring to a full moon that would \"normally\" (in years without an intercalary month) be the full moon of spring, while in an intercalary year, it was \"traitorous\" in the sense that people would have had to continue fasting for another month in accordance with the season of Lent.[8][9]\n\nThe earliest recorded English usage of the term blue moon is found in an anti-clerical pamphlet (attacking the Roman clergy, and cardinal Thomas Wolsey in particular) by two converted Greenwich friars, William Roy and Jerome Barlow, published in 1528 under the title Rede me and be nott wrothe, for I say no thynge but trothe. The relevant passage reads:[10]\n\nO churche men are wyly foxes [...] Yf they say the mone is blewe / We must beleve that it is true / Admittynge their interpretacion.[11]\n\nIt is not clear from the context that this refers to intercalation; the context of the passage is a dialogue between two priest's servants, spoken by the character \"Jeffrey\" (a brefe dialoge betwene two preste's servauntis, named Watkyn and Ieffraye). The intention may simply be that Jeffrey makes an absurd statement, \"the moon is blue\", to make the point that priests require laymen to believe in statements even if they are patently false. But in the above interpretation of \"betrayer moon\", Jeffrey may also be saying that it is up to the priests to say when Lent will be delayed, by announcing \"blue moons\" which laymen have no means to verify.",

"I get that this is all sarcastic and I'm not accusing you of anything, but to others who might be reading this, I'd like to explain something.\n\nAppropriation is when you present something as authentic without regard to actual authenticity or compensation for the people who originally created that thing. Going to Japan and paying a Japanese vendor to rent a kimono for a day isn't appropriation because you're A.) doing it in the appropriate context and B.) compensating the originators appropriately. If you were to then come back to America and produce...I don't know...dresses with a Hello Kitty knockoff on them and call them Kimonos, that would be cultural appropriation.\n\nLemme put it this way...it's the difference between a mexican restaurant in an American city owned and if Taco Bell advertised itself as authentic mexican. Though I do love Taco Bell.",
"Renting starts as low as 2,000 Yen an hour (in Kyoto, that is) and you will get fitted by professionals. Unless you're exceptionally large, they will have fitting pieces. When you rent a more expensive kimono, you often get a companion who makes sure you won't ruin it. \nThere are also photo studios with professional dressers where the kimono never leaves the studio but you get nice, professional photos.\n\nBuying a new kimono (including all the undergarments and accessories) will set you back 200,000 Yen at least going all the way up and then some. \nHowever, there's a large market for used kimono which can be quite affordable. You can even get the tabi used but really, who'd want that?\n\nAlternatively, you could look for a yukata (which is also a lot easier to put on) which can be gotten from 6,000 Yen new.\n\n[Kimono buying guide on Wikitravel](https://wikitravel.org/en/Kimono_buying_guide)",

"Gutters are so clean in Japan you could eat out of them...",
"What about the argument that she is presenting herself as an authentic kimono wearer?\n\nAgain, not trying to accuse anyone of anything, but this is what I've heard. Like a white guy could get his dreads done in jamaica, but that doesn't mean he hasn't appropriated the culture.\n\nMaybe what I've heard has been russian trolls posting to tumblr to try to shift what the publics perception of cultural appropriation is, so that people hate it?",
"So... wait, so (s)he is?",
"Calm down neck beard your aren't about to marry anyone who doesnt even know or care who you are ",
"Calm down neck beard. That was what my people refer to as a joke. ",
"Dreads where worn by the majority of cultures at some point. Historical documents suggest that the majority of European cultures wore them. just because it is associated with African American culture today does not mean it was ever exclusive.",
"For an anecdote, I spent a month in Japan for a cultural exchange program through my college. One of the people who came with was female, and her host family gave her a kimono to wear and they loved it. \n\nAs long as you aren't being an ass, they're not going to care, and will probably be appreciative that foreigners care about their culture. The same carries true for the rest of their cultural practices.",
"Would you mind if a Japanese man came over here and ran around in cowboy attire?",
"She's white, it's literally impossible for her to present herself as an authentic kimono wearer",
"Is it? Shes obviously done her hair, up as well, and her hair is jet black, and her skin tone matches that of many japanese people, so her \"whiteness\" isn't exactly doing it...\n\n\"Just her eye shape\" (he said, feeling racist)",
"In Asia this is pretty common, and is not generally considered offensive or inappropriate. Places that provide a costume and often some kind of background or location that connects to local history are common in Taiwan, Korea, Japan, and other parts of Asia.",
"Hopefully I look as nice as her when I visit Japan in June...",
"Calm down digger!",
"I can't imagine anyone would be offended! ",
