I have been diagnosed with POTS recently although I have had vasovagal syncope for most of my life but I am super exhausted all the time and I also have been diagnosed with depression recently as well (im getting help for it but it will be a long process) so that just makes my motivation to exercise worse. I do have a pretty strenuous job and get around 10k steps the 3 days that I work as well. know exercise is good for pots and helps people with this disability but I need an easy place to start! I want to stop feeling like garbage every day that im off.

I have been working in X-ray/ CT in a hospital for about 5 years now and I am familiar with many types of xray/ CT machines. Im looking to move away from clinical/hospital work and go into more industrial work. For those who work in RT what is your work flow look like? Im not super great at math but did well in radiography school in x ray physics. Is there more math involved? Do you have to read the images? This is a completely foreign area to me but seems interesting! Anyone who does radiography in this field let me know what your job is like!

So I have been on lexapro for almost a year now for GAD and im still not sure if it has fully helped as much as I would have liked. I added wellbutrin to it because I felt like I was a walking zombie and that helped a little but I still have waves of anxiety sometimes and borderline panic attacks (granted I have had some family issues lately). Im just wondering if I need to talk to my doctor to try something else or stick with it. How long were you on lexapro and if you switched when did you know it was time?

Im sure this question has been asked before but Radiology is not exactly the job I thought it was. I work CT/Xray and while I do still love the job it has become so abused in every modality at this point that it is kind of dreadful to go to work every week. Are there any non patient care related jobs that I can still do CT or xray? If you work a non clinical job with this degree what do you do?

So my mom and I 28 F found out that my dad has been cheating on my mom for weeks now. We have always been a super close family and we have all been home bodies so we spend most of our time off together. I still live with my parents while my older bother just bought a house last year but is just a mile down the road from us and he stops by every day after work. We have 2 dogs as well. So waking up to this big bomb that dropped was very surprising to say the least. My parents have been together for 33 years and they both retired recently and we were so excited to plan trips and vacations and now we wont ever be able to do that again. My mom is absolutely crushed and livid to say the least. Apparently my dad was sexting multiple women and a few of them were friends with my mom and one of them was even HIS BOSS from the company he just retired from. My mom showed me some screenshots of their messages and I was completely appalled by it. Im in utter disbelief and shock and I am so angry and crushed that he would do that to my mom. We also have lived in this house for 9 years and put thousands of dollars into it to make it a home and it now only brings up bad memories for my family. It was also completely paid off so the thought of completely starting over just makes me want to cry. My mom is also disabled and has a hard time moving around so trying to move as well will just aggravate her condition. Im sorry that this is a long post but my mom doesn't want me talking to people because she is so embarrassed about it and I just needed to rant a little. I dont know how to process this and I dont know if I can ever forgive him for breaking our family apart like this.
