I have this overwhelming fear of being given psychoactive substances in hospital settings and not being able to advocate for myself and I feel so alone because I’ve never met anybody else with this exact fear. I’m scared I’ll need to have like an appendectomy, a gallbladder removal, a severe bone fracture, a kidney stone, some emergency thing that’ll land me in the hospital and they’ll give me opioids, ketamine, benzos, etc. without asking if it’s okay first and I won’t feel like myself or be taken seriously and I’ll be laughed at or spoken to like a child and I won’t be able to advocate for myself. It’s my worst fear and I don’t know how to cope with it. To clarify, general anesthesia does not bother me at all, and doing psychoactive drugs in recreational settings does not bother me at all. It only bothers me in medical settings besides general anesthesia.

Hello! I completed my associates degree when I was in high school and I'm at the point where I can feasibly complete my bachelor's in 2 years without overloading any semesters. I'm majoring in psychology at UTD (was originally pre-med and a bio major but switched when I realized I'm not interested in medicine) and I want to go to law school. My merit scholarship covers tuition and part of my housing for 8 semesters. If my scholarship covered tuition and full housing I would probably stay at UTD for longer but the more semesters I take, the more money I'm going to spend on housing for undergrad instead of law school and I want to use as much money in my 529 account as I can for law school and not just housing in undergrad so I can decrease the amount in loans I would inevitably have to take out. I potentially have an internship lined up for the summer but I'm not sure yet. The college experience is not important to me as I don't really like partying or anything like that. I'm just not really sure what to do.

Hello! I'm completing my review for my final exam and this question is stumping me; I can't figure out why the correct answer choice is D. I would think since individual standard deviations are given as opposed to a single standard deviation for the entire sample that you would use a T-test with pooled variances (because it says to assume equal population variances). I got answer choice B by doing this. Can anyone help me out?

Hello! I’ve already memorized the independent state flags and I’m working on territories right now. Is there a way to learn historical flags as well? Thanks!
