    Career ideas...

    I got my associates degree in nursing through a small, Baptist school affiliated with one of the local hospital. The program prepares you to be minimally competent in all nursing specialties. My favorite rotation was psychiatry and I worked there as a nurses aide through school. If you are an...

    I just finished my master's degree in nursing and I am taking the certification test next week to be a psychiatric nurse practitioner. I am going to make 115k at my new job once I get my license. If you think you would enjoy nursing, go for it. I've spent the past 5 years working as an RN in...

    Skipping Jesse's confession is interesting. We have no idea what Jesse told Hank; maybe Walt and Jesse are working together to fuck Hank over.

    Bicycling

    I ordered my first mountain bike, a Scott Scale 960, through my local bike shop yesterday (they didn't have one with an XL frame). I rented a full suspension bike when I was in Colorado last month and loved it. Any advice for a total newb? Bike Reference...

    Depression

    American Psychiatric Association recommends therapy or medication or both for depression. A good psychiatric clinician will present options to a patient and be respectful of their wishes. As a clinician, I don't care which option a patient chooses (however, most depressed patients require...

    When you declare the attack phase, he can respond (this is when you want to use tap effects most if the time). When you declare attackers, he can respond (this is when you flash in the wurm). After blockers are declared, he can respond (this is when you cast resto angel or a pump spell to save...

    I was waiting to use single person restroom. Dude finished, I walk in. He's pissed all over the toilet seat. Great. I use paper towels to lift lid; I'm not wiping it down, that's gross. I walk out and cleaning lady is waiting. Now she thinks I pissed everywhere. Rustled...

    Summer in Vail

    Were probably going to stick to the cross-country beginner/intermediate trails. I do cardio 4-5 a week but I wonder how much harder it will be at 7k-8k feet hah.

    Summer in Vail

    My wife and I are planning on driving from Missouri to Vail, CO for 4 nights at the end of July. We are planning on farting around on a resort/mountain, renting mountain bikes and going white water rafting. Any other suggestions (or better locations in CO)? I've been to Winter Park during ski...

    The Back to School Thread

    I went back to school when I was 25 and got my associates in nursing. I'm 32 now and I'm about to finish my masters. Nursing is cool because you can get an associates degree and do pretty well or you can go all the way and get a PhD or DNP if you want to continue your education.

    Johnny, is she on Methadone or something? Or is her are you actually buying her heroin? If this isn't a giant troll and you actually give a shit, you'd help her get into some kind of treatment program instead of just fucking around with her.

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    I'll have about 596 clinical hours when I finish my master's in nursing this Summer. I've been a nurse for 4.5 years but that experience doesn't prepare you at all to be a provider. I specialize in Psychiatry which is a totally different than being an FNP. I don't know how an FNP can be ready to...

    As a mental health professional, people who claim they are bipolar and then deny all symptoms of a manic or hypomanic episode in the past rustle the fuck out of my jimmies.

    Screws, pencil and a button in the bladder was pretty hilarious. Running down the median of the interstate naked, covered in mud is always hilarious.

    You'd love my patients. Been throwing out Axis I: Malingering for Shelter/drugs Axis II: Antisocial Personality Disorder all week. Fucking pricks rustle my jimmies. Do you get many "I fought with my boyfriend and overdosed on 10 Ibuprofen because I want to die"'s in your ER?

    Buying a car?

    As a graduation present, I'm thinking about buying either a 4 cylinder Honda Accord, 6 cylinder Accord or a 6 cylinder Honda Crosstour. I know the Accord is a good car but I have a hard on for hatchbacks. Anyone know anything about the (2013) Crosstour?

    One of my professors in nursing school told me I needed to smile more; this turned out to be the best advice anyone has ever given me. Smiling and being friendly (I am not a naturally friendly person but I've learned how to pretend hah) will get you everywhere.

    Insomnia

    I don't know if a sleep study would do much good if your primary problem is sleep onset. I can't help but think your sleep is totally fucked up from benzos. It takes upwards of two months to get your sleep architecture corrected once benzos/alcohol are discontinued at HS. Smoking pot constantly...

    Insomnia

    Do you see a psychiatrist? What drugs, besides pot, do you use? How often do you drink alcohol? Substance abuse can fuck with your mood and sleep.

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    The self-diagnosis is what rustles my jimmies. My sister-in-law is allergic to fructose. Her doctor thought she had GERD for a long time but PPI's and H2 blockers weren't helping and she began having severe nausea, endoscopy was negative so he tested her for allergies and found out she had a...
