A couple. I had thought about making sure there was a video for every skill but I didn't get that far. I definitely wanted to include "inner fucking peace" under mindfulness.
Although I'm thinking about making a separate account and making a read-only sublemmy with all of it. I'd have to pick an instance though. Maybe .sh but maybe something different idk. I'm wondering if the US is just going to cut off internet access at some point and I won't be able to get on .sh anymore. Although at that point they might try getting rid of lemmy altogether anyway.
darn. idw share it from my personal drive. Not sure how I wanna host it. edit: also it works when i try to download it so idk
Valerian root. It's GABA active. Smells like either manure or freshly rained on soil though depending on your nose in a similar way to how cilantro taste varies between people. It's what's in sleepytime extra.
tbh most psych units I've worked don't even do that kind of ED. We'll do BED in a pinch but anorexia nervosa or bulimia with significant weight loss is either stable enough to be managed outpatient or unstable enough that it needs either medical hospitalization or a specialized unit. I've worked one psych unit that could handle telemetry and they wouldn't have liked having to.
imma have to steal a cuff from peds to measure that bp
The Horus Guard's beak glistens!
Guilty as minted.
I've noticed in codes I just have to step into the middle of the room put some bass out from my chest and point at people and give simple instructions (and these are psych codes so it's usually "ALICE -> THAT ARM. BOB -> THE OTHER ARM. CAROL -> LEGS. DAVE -> GO GET THE RESTRAINTS."
But then sometimes something very unexpected comes up like a very large patient dropping their weight into a weird position. So the important thing there is to hopefully come up with an idea quickly and give the simplest way possible to explain to everyone to move as a team. But sometimes someone else comes up with a good idea before me and then you go "CAROL'S RIGHT. ON THREE WE'RE GONNA ___."
So. 0. Know what the fuck you're doing enough that you're respected as an authority figure.
- Confidence in posture and voice.
- Point and use simple instructions.
- Confidence doesn't mean ego. Recognize a good idea when you hear it and use it.
Probably not what you were asking but I hope it helps.
Every once in a while a guy will know something about women's bodies that makes me go "ooooh OK that one's actually really like kinsey 0 straight" instead of some other weird combination of interests that are approximately straight in a mostly possessive way. Sometimes I'll hear "straight" guys talk about how gross vaginas are but then you hear a guy talking about pH balances and lactobacilli and it's just really obvious which guy actually wants to be in one.
Well. Emotional swings like that can occur as part of a manic episode specifically. Mania just means the emotions come faster than usual, not that they're good. Ppl w mania are actually frequently extremely angry, usually because they're going a million miles an hour and don't understand why everyone else won't just keep. tf. up.
But yeah if op has always just been like that consistently without any ebb and flow over month's / years then yes it points more towards a thought disorder. I used to have a really cool infographic from a textbook on the differential dx between borderline, bipolar, and adhd since they can all have very similar presentations or even just be comorbid in certain patients.
I've actually seen a good few patients who we all swore up and down were borderline then the meds would click into place and oh. Look at that you really were just bipolar. huh. (I say all of this having a childhood dx of ADHD, an adult dx of borderline, and a current psychiatrist who thinks I'm bipolar so...)
Oh yeah I thought I was a sure winner until I saw the fluffs.
