Not Coping

This one is on the digestion of protein. So we had egg, pepsin, and either water, HCl or NaOH and they were all incubated to see how the protein would get digested.

The second one is on Carbohydrates, so we had amylase and then HCl or water, with the analyses in the other. One got cooked for a bit. Then we split it into two test tubes and did the Lugol's test, as you can see, there are three darker colour test tubes, so this means starch is present, whereas the yellow/amber one means there is no starch present.

The third one is the Beneditc's test add 5 ml of Benedict’s reagent to each of the four

solutions, and place the four tubes in boiling water for 10 min.

If the solution is blue (like the Benedict’s reagent), there is no maltose present in the solution

If the solution has a greenish coloration, then a small amount of maltose is present (+)

If the solution has a yellowish coloration, then a moderate amount of maltose is present (+++)

If the solution has a orange or reddish coloration, then a large amount of maltose is present. 

This had the same things as the above; it has the amylses.

This one was just on fat and we were testing the pH. 

Add 3.0 ml heavy cream to each tube

3. Add the following to each tube (See Figure below):

TUBE 1: 5 ml water and a few grains of bile salts

TUBE 2: 5 ml pancreatin solution

 TUBE 3: 5 ml pancreatin and a few grains of bile salt. 

Then we measured the pH at 0, 20, 40 and 60 min in a 37c water bath. 

Re: Not Coping

@PizzaMondo, the below post is for you. I have some photos and a small explanation of each. 

I can go further detail after my volunteer thing if you would like. 

Re: Not Coping

Printing out photos to give to the psych is a good idea. I have quite a number of quotes that I could use with my psych.

No doubt you were angry hon, you probably still are. That is normal. That anger might last for quite awhile too. I don't think we can put a time limit on things like this.

 

Unfortunately it is harder to gauge where someone is when it is just the written word @Birdofparadise8. It is always easier in person because you can read the other person through their body language/demeanor.

Perhaps RO didn't fully understand you. I have never been on RO however so cannot guess or gauge what they were thinking.

 

BTW great photos! Makes me think of my uni days a long time ago.

 

Re: Not Coping

Yeah, I thought so, too. I'll do it tonight before my session tomorrow. 

Yes, I am still angry. I will be for a while. 

Yeah I know but I told them I was safe and that if I felt things were getting worse I would call KHL what more do they want. They never understand me. Whenever they send a check in email. Even though I said when I posted I was safe. They still had to ask if I was suicidal. I just there process I suppose being younger people on there. 

Re: Not Coping

It could be the fact that there are younger people on there @Birdofparadise8 

I guess it is also the fact that they have to cover all the different scenarios and cover their backs. If someone did go those extra steps, then the responsibility might come back onto them.

Even though you told them you were safe and did the right thing, they still needed that extra information. 

 

I have to go. Have to go pick up S from school soon and then take him to work. Will most likely be around for a bit this afternoon/evening.

 

I hope your volunteering goes well. If I don't talk to you again, I wish you well for your psych appt. tomorrow.

Take care xoxo

 

Re: Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 hi lovely,

 

I hope you're okay. I am not doing the best so have been offline while I try and sort myself out.

Will be back soon hopefully xx
