Forced to having vagina checked

18f at the time. I have something that has not settled in my mind for years. At the time I was 18. Was admitted to eating disorder inpatient unit. Upon admission, they had me in a gown and said the psychiatrist needs to check me. I was compliant as i knew it was common for patients in this setting to self harm and thats what they were checking for (i personally did not). Then they said underwear needs to be off and he needs to look there. I asked to skip that part and said I wasn't comfortable and they suddenly got really firm and cold with me and said there was no way I could be admitted unless he checked me there also. There was a tech on the other side of the curtain. I was horrified that I was refused treatment unless I had my vagina looked at. I had no choice. My friend who was there said that did not happen to her. Tell me, is this standard? I still think about how I froze and the lack of control I had in that moment. Then I had to use him as my psychiatrist.

Discharge

I took flagyl for 10 days and finished that about a week ago. My symptoms were itching, discharge, and a slight smell. I noticed Ive been having discharge again. Thin white watery discharge. Prior to the antibiotics I had a lot more of it. Does this sound like its coming back? Anyone had this so soon after?

Cannot drink water

9 months pp. Take meds. Appetite is minimal but was much worse fhe first few months (especially before meds).. i also cannot get myself to drink much at all. It feels overwhelming to put anythimg into my body. But recently the water has been so hard. I dont drink more than a few sips. Im lightheaded often and hold onto things when i stand up so i wont fall but I feel like i cant force myself enough. It feels impossible. Even with meds and therapy, I have an empty worthless hopeless feeling. Even when I feel happy, theres still that empty pit lurking somehwere in me.

Hate this world

I want to end it all. I have no purpose in this ugly world. Im not needed. I dont have any friends. I felt left out in the support group I was going to and my husband just thinks im "busy with bullshit" whenever I say anything about how i care what people think of me. I was invisible as a kid and im back to being invisible. Im almost 9 months pp and i wish I never saw a glimpse of this fucking planet earth.

Burning

Was on antibiotics for 10 days and finished a few days ago. I did not originally have burning but at some point during the antibiotics, I started intermittently burning. Sometimes during urination and other times just when sitting or standing etc. Also in my butt at times. Could the antibiotics have caused this? Or is something else going on? Im still have this and it feels raw

Tick?

Pulled this out of my thigh. This picture is very zoomed in. I saw a black dot and it felt round but wouldn't come out. Had to dig and pull. Does this look like a tick or something else entirely?

Itching and fatigue

On the 10 day course of flagyl. I cannot function from the fatigue. My eyes dont stay open. How tired is too tired? I wasnt prepared 😭😭😭 Also, had internal itching that went away a few days after starting flagyl. Now im 7 days in, and I have itching again but mostly external. Is this a side effect or do I need something additional?

Support group hurt me

Its such a pity that something that should be a helpful resource to women, is whats making me feel so down. Im 8 months pp and ive been attending a weekly pp support group for several months. At first i felt supported and liked and I enjoyed attending. As time went on, I realized how excluded I felt. Many of them attended eachtohers birthday parties ans talked about it openly and I was never invited to even one. There's a group chat and it began to feel click like in high school. I stopped both talking on the chat and attending. I feel lonlier than ever. I used to get more support and friendliness and I just really dont feel liked or needed in this world. Sitting here crying. It took me months to get myself to go to this fucking group and i wish I never did. I hate myself for putting myself in a vulnerable position and then being made to feel small.

Female 30. Takes wellbutrin. Not on period. Last night, had pink spotting. Then went to sleep and woke up suddenly with an intense urge to urinate. Never had such intensity before. Urinated a lot. Then within the next 10 minutes had to get up another 3 or 4 times with intense urge to go. Each time had pink spotting also. Today no urgency and the spotting is lighter pink but also have this other thing with the spotting a couple of times. Pictures in comments. What is this?
