    OrganizedChaos replied to OrganizedChaos's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    It's so easy to gain weight, if only it were as easy to lose it. I'm 5'2" & got up to 220lbs during my pregnancy. Thankfully I have lost most of the weight, there are still some stubborn pounds...

    OrganizedChaos replied to vuphan86's topic in General Students

    OrganizedChaos replied to vuphan86's topic in General Students

    New Nurse on Paxil

    OrganizedChaos replied to elomi18's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Actually, I quit seeing my psychiatrist because that's what he was doing. That's what the last couple of them were doing. I go to a PCP & he pays more attention to me than any psychiatrist

    Am I overstepping my boundaries? WWYD?

    OrganizedChaos replied to Velarey's topic in General Nursing

    Even if the friend said "Oh no, don't worry. You don't have to.", I'm sure she didn't mean it. Usually people say that to make the other party feel less guilty. Even if she did mean it you (OP) should...
