The Wall

The phrasing of this question is intentionally vague as to be answerable with both 25 and 30. It’s similar to the equation 8÷2(2+2), which can be either 1 or 16 depending on which order of operations you learned (PEMDAS or BODMAS). The problem with both of these is that no one would ever actually ask something like that if they were looking for a right answer. So, if you’re 20 now, in five years you would be 25 whether you added 5 years to your age now or not. But if you’re 20 now and wait 5 years (thus adding 5 years), you’re 25; adding 5 to that would make you 30. You don’t want to be 30, trust me.

PubMed (www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed) could help you examine your hypothesis. I recommend this search: (“Patient Readmission”[Mesh]) AND psychiatric, and then limit to review articles with the selector on the left. There seem to be several recent reviews (most recently 2017) about pre- or post-discharge predictors for readmission to psychiatric hospitals that you may find informative. You could try the PsycInfo database as well: subject(“Psychiatric Hospital Readmission “) and select Literature Review under the Methodology dropdown on the results screen (left side).

Yes.

Interesting idea! I’ve passed it along to UCS, who says triage is generally available within 1-2 days, not weeks.

As a wall, I’ve heard of many great seasonal shows and events around Boston and here are some of them; Boston Commons’ Frog Pond for Ice Skating (Tuesday is College Night and admission is only $2.00), Boston Ballet:The Nutcracker, Langston Hughes’ Black Nativity, Skii at Blue Hills or Max Brenners Chocolate Bar or Top of the Hub. Enjoy!

Alas, unrequited love is a story for the ages. There are many reasons for a person not to love you, most of which don’t have anything to do with you at all. You will find someone that loves you for you. In the meantime, I recommend focusing on other people and hobbies. In time, your feelings for this person will fade and be replaced by feelings for someone else that is a better fit.

Hmmmm…could be any number of reasons. Did it used to be normal for you? Did you accept the new wifi certificate that was introduced on Nov. 11? Try “forgetting” the EduRoam network and reconnecting. If it’s still going slow, you can call the Technology help center at 617-552-HELP (4357).

Anything. Anything at all. Ideally, something that will show her that you thought about what gives her joy.

I’m glad you’ve found a home here! But sadly, it’s not a place to stay during break because there’s no residential staff. You’re probably familiar with the lines from a famous Christmas poem: “not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.” It will certainly be true of O’Neill at night during the winter break, when O’Neill will be open 9-5 Mon-Sat, 11-7 Sun, and fully closed on Christmas Day (Dec 25) and New Year’s Day. But no overnight sojourns, I’m sorry to say.

I applaud your enthusiasm to help those in need. The job track to pro sport General Manager seems to follow two paths- former players and former coaches. So first, you should become one of those.

It could be a variety of reasons (your socks, the material in your shoes (no plastic!), or not rotating your shoes frequently enough).  Try using a tea tree oil body wash on your feet.  I’ve heard it can do wonders.
