That coupled with the fact that classes are only at night in not the best area worries me----he is actually more worried than me but taking the bus through a bad area at 10pm might not be the greatest idea. That leaves self study but I would be alone like 6 days a week trying to study----and without any labs to play with the computers etc. Part of me just wants to move and start again but then I would lose all the people I care for here. It's tough.

A lot of people go to the community college to train to take x rays and they make BANK, and its just a program they have specifically for that at the community college. I can't recall the title exactly, probably radiography. it has to do with science... and might not be as menial as counting cells! You get more interactions with human beings everyday. I think you would do well in the healthcare industry since you've got such a big heart

Congratulations Newtus. How exciting!

Well i got my results from my metabolism, thyroid, and vitamin D tests. I was surprised at how many tests are actually in the metabolism test. I got smack dab i the middle for everything except the vitamin D test. So i'm pretty much healthy. I live in Michigan so it's hard to get vitamin D. The healthy amount of vitamin D is 29 something or other and i only got 25. Which is crazy since im a painter and I work outside all day! I bought vitamin D3 but my roommate, who is a nurse, said that it will take 3 months to jump my vitamin D up because it just goes in and out of the system and doesn't have a half life. And its water soluable so i need to take it with food at night while my system can absorb it because my body will only absorb so much... She knows a lot about vitamins!

I drink milk which is fortified so I usually keep my vitamin D up......

Thanks I have sort of ruled out healthcare due to licensing...I don’t want anything where I can get a degree and then effectively have it taken away because I have psychosis.....

So im researching Vitamin D and finding out a lot of interesting things.

Quote:

2) If you have dark skin, you'll need about 25 times more exposure time as a light skinned individual to produce the same amount of vitamin D.

I think this is evolutionary since people from Scandinavia see such less sunlight, their body made a way to absorb more by turning color. That's a theory anyway.
If you where sunscreen you block 95 percent of vitamin D! It's going to take me months to get my new levels secure and have a difference. Also, it said about a billion people on average are vitamin D deficient.

BTW, Vitamin D seems to boost mood and energy.

Holy **** that would make me paranoid. And this is the same med that supposed to treat this stuff. :|

Good evening everyone. How are things going today?

I'm doing okay. I'm fighting jet lag and have been up since 7:30am. Noticing sooo many things that are different between the USA and Finland. Taking notes and planning on doing a YouTube video later about it.

Now my partner and I are at a friend's place for a couple of nights. We got some alcohol tonight, so I am planning on getting drunk.

Nov 14, 2017 at 10:00 PM

That pill tracking thing is crazy. I don't think they know what their doing when researchers made an electronic for a schizophrenic to take. There are nano-bot conspiracies already.
