Not Coping

That's great @Birdofparadise8, well done!! Being prepared is as important as the content if you have to present it but I'm sure you will do well when you do. I have a role-play assignment coming up in a couple of weeks which I have to prepare for too. RiverSeal

What are you studying @RiverSeal?

I'm doing a systematic review on emotional intelligence, anxiety and depression and how self-compassion can be an intervention to help improve emotional intelligence and then decrease depression. It's for my research methods for health science unit.

Hey there @Birdofparadise8 🌺🙂💜

slow start for me - still not weaned off the ventilator yet (fatigue reduces breathing capacity and I rely on breathing support a bit longer till my body catches up 😉).
how’s your day? Did you sleep ok? 🌺

I'm studying a Cert IV in Mental Health Peer Work @Birdofparadise8 and my assignment is on self-advocacy, I have to play the worker and client with a partner.

Yours sounds way more complex than mine and really interesting too! I'd love to hear how you go if you want to share later ❤️

Ventilator like down your throat @Former-Member?

OMG

Yes slept well. I got up, and I've finished my assignment. I'm just trying to find some refences for my background info.

So I can go to the POOL YAY. I'm waiting for my parents to look at it, and then I'll submit it.

I will have to practice practice practice to make this into three minutes.

My script is 800 words long but some are just points I can go over. I hope it's not too long.

Ah okay @RiverSeal

Yes, it is interesting. It's just hard.

Have you done a systematic review before?

It’s a non invasive ventilator @Birdofparadise8 🙌🏻☺️

high pressures push air in via a specialised mask (I have one that sits inside my mouth while blocking nose) to reduce the leak, down into my lungs, then the machine reverses drawing air out (my body can’t push air out or draw air in while asleep or weak from neurological flare up of my condition). I use it while sleeping, or when my blood oxygen drops during the day when I can’t breathe enough independently 🙂

Yay! I’m so glad you’ve finished the assessment task! Well done! 🥳😀🙌🏻🌺

800 words sounds good - it’s around 20-40 mins presentation duration?

No, I haven't @Birdofparadise8. It does sound complex, and I have done research before for a mental health org I volunteered for before I started working. Sounds like a bit of work to do and interesting too. RiverSeal

Oh, okay, gosh, that would be hard.

My dad has sleep aponea but he ask a mask that just goes around his nose.

No, it's a 3-minute presentation. @Former-Member

ah, now I'm freaking out for 20 min.

There is a lot to do and so little time to present @RiverSeal
