My job, man. so stressful sometimes.

All I can say is please be vigilant about your doctors/NPs/FNPs. Some really are batshit crazy.

Don't just believe their diagnosis + they give you high-risk medications. Get 2nd and 3rd opinion cause some do practice with their egos.

my experience with normal general practitioners is like 90% being ignored or shit on but they love me at the hospital. @ GPs/FNPs maybe youd enjoy your jobs more if you weren't such massive haters 24/7 loooooooooool

A coalition of 70 conservation organizations, including both the Florida Native Plant Society & the Ixia Chapter of FNPS and many partners (incl @flspringscouncil.bsky.social &

Florida springs are vital for our ecology but face severe pollution. FNPS urges FDEP's new Secretary to adopt a Harm Rule to protect them. https://buff.ly/4hkk8rT

Remember!
If you’ve been trusting your primary care provider, don’t stop now!
Great docs, FNPs, PAs rely upon the CDC for guidance!
Nurses do as well!
32yrs of nursing,I’ve relied on them for guidance even during my education years!
Vaccines save lives!
Period!

#PlantMoreNatives and the butterflies will come. In Florida & other SE states, Stokes asters (Stokesia laevis) are a beautiful & easy-to-care-for native. Here's the link to its FNPS plant profile to learn more & to find Florida nurseries with this plant in stock: www.fnps.org/plant/stokes...

in my exp, the worst person to see for hrt is an endocrinologist. the best freedom and flexibility i’ve gotten has been from naturopaths and fnps:
me: “i doubled my dose”
np: “good for you”
me: “you, uh, want to do labs?”
np: “nah vibes are fine”
anyways daily reminder that your endocrinologist is probably braindead stupid and that your local its/its discord puppygirl or biohacking tgirl know more than them

I'll add those to my list.

Considering I've known more FNPs that were worth their salt and took their time than MDs, I'd just as soon see their monopolistic horseshit swept out with rest of the stall cleanings.
