Health psychologist? I had no idea there were psychologists that specialize in health issues! Are issues aside from fertility etc also something that a health psychologist can help with?

Lastly how does one find such a person? (Keywords for searching type thing)

Lastly lastly, I'd like to say thanks. I've had friends just torn apart inside over not being able to have children. Sometimes I wish that humans would just stop equating womanhood with reproduction although that wouldn't really minimize the pain of desperately wanting to carry a child.

I cannot thank you enough, truly.

Aiyyy this makes me sad. In (I think 2010? 2011?) an AMA quite literally changed my life.

It was the Elan School one, I'd been there 81-83 and even though it deeply messed me up I never had a place to tell my story. With that AMA it was like a dam got released and memories have come back.

Because of this sub I've been able to finally do some healing after decades.

Beyond that it's just been really neat to see the interactions between OP and audience on a huge variety of topics.

I'd like to thank you, for the work done here. It's been important, at least to me.

I think my question is too late but: tattoos and autoimmune conditions don't always mix well. Is there a pattern/definitive cause or way to know what ink would be least likely to become rejected?

I've a very specific and unusual problem. I'm currently 58 but between the ages of 15-18 I was in a place where the nightly routine was to lift our covers and shine a light on us..every 6 or 7 minutes. All night, every night.

It seems to have developed into permanent sleep disruption to this day.

Have you any ideas or suggestions?

I tried Ambien years ago and sleep ate canned vegetables without remembering, so I'm reluctant to go that route again.

Thanks!
