Girl to girl: get you an older woman to be your close friend. One that you preferably look up to. One that cares. You'll be in awe of the wisdom / femininity / confidence she'll impart on you. Older women are gold. <3
I saw a TikTok about a girl saying how she doesn't stay mad for long because either she's going to figure it out, or there's nothing that can be done about it. and as simple as that sounds is as simple as it is really.
This girl said, “When I lost my spark nobody noticed, because I was still showing up for others. The only way I regained my spark was by isolating myself and limiting how I gave out my resources. People noticed that though.” And that’s really how it be
So, your doctor ordered a test or treatment and your insurance company denied it. That is a typical cost saving method.
OK, here is what you do:
1. Call the insurance company and tell them you want to speak with the "HIPAA Compliance/Privacy Officer"
(By federal law, they have to have one)
2. Then ask them for the NAMES as well as
CREDENTIALS of every person accessing your record to make that decision of denial.
By law you have a right to that information.
3. They will almost always reverse the decision very shortly rather than admit that the committee is made of low paid HS graduates, looking at "criteria words." making the medical decision to deny your care.
Even in the rare case it is made by medical personnel, it is unlikely that it is made by a board certified doctor in that specialty and they DO NOT WANT YOU TO KNOW THIS!!
4. Any refusal should be reported to the US Office of Civil
Rights (https://t.co/QJjJAm5BxT) as a HIPAA violation.
Be safe out there 🫵🏻✨
Know your rights 👊🏼

I'm at a weird place in life. My younger self was way more social and kept in touch with people I love. My current self is super introverted and don't really talk to people I love a lot but I still love them though. People probably be thinking ion fuck with them or I'm mad at them or something but that's not the case. I just be at peace when I'm closed off. I can interact on social media and shit because it's through a screen and I still have that space to be introverted but outside of social media I'm super closed off and don't even understand why myself. Maybe one day I'll come out of this shit or maybe not but It's all love either way.
If you’re outraged over Charlie Kirk’s shooting but can shrug off ICE shooting a woman in the face while she was trying to flee, you’re not principled, you’re in a cult. You’re a hypocrite. Watching that video shook me to my soul.
This generation hides behind “I don't owe anyone anything” to avoid accountability. Yes, you do. You owe apologies to those you hurt. Gratitude to those who showed up. Respect to those you disrespected. That's not weakness, that's maturity.
