he's clearly suffering from PISD

Assuming you mean PTSD, there is not nearly enough information here to diagnose OP. Regardless of what diagnosis you, random internet person, have decided to bestow, seeing a qualified physician is a crucial part of mental health workup. Still not sure why you continue to take issue with this.

This, what OP is going through ? That's normal. As my therapist said, she would have been far more worried if I didn't get the thoughts.

You have not done a suicide risk assessment and don't know the character or severity of OP's suicidal ideation or other symptoms. He is not you.

his therapist will tell him to talk to a physician

A good therapist will, but unfortunately, this does not happen nearly as much as it should. This leads to delayed diagnosis and management of comorbid medical conditions that contribute to feelings of depression. Therapists typically don't have broader medical training outside of mental health and aren't always well versed in the many treatments for mental health disorders.

OP says he has had progressively worsening suicidal ideation for 5 months. Seeing a doctor is an incredibly reasonable thing to do in that situation. Not sure why my suggestion upset you so much.

If it's been that long and it's still getting worse, you should see your PCP or a psychiatrist if you haven't already. There are many treatments for depression, and a doctor can help identify underlying medical causes that could be contributing.

That's interesting. To provide a bit of insight, I think it has the rating that it does because it doesn't appear to be overtly harmful (which makes sense if it's just diluted liver), and lower ratings are reserved for dangerous supplements or those with many adverse effects/interactions with other things

I'd imagine that taking a 1000 IU tablet daily plus the additional natural vitamin D intake could be problematic longterm.

For healthy adults, it's safe

It's provided by many academic medical centers to their staff as a resource, so I think it's broadly trusted by medical providers. Looks like it's pretty expensive to subscribe, that's too bad.

It gives a 5/10 for Oscillococcinum. It says there is insufficient evidence to rate its effectiveness for COVID-19, COPD, and influenza and sites several studies on each, giving a summary of their findings. Regarding safety, it says it is "possibly safe when used orally." It's associated with angioedema but otherwise appears to have no adverse effects.

Sure, but going over 100% "daily value" does not equal toxic. You generally have to be taking well over 4000 IU vitamin D daily to reach toxic levels.

Vitamin D is actually very safe at normal doses despite being fat soluble. You have to be taking huge amounts daily for it to become an issue (which maybe they are idk)

14% fewer injuries in the zone and 45% fewer noise complaints is kinda wild

Really? Show me where.

It claims that he bragged about doing so

The sentence after where it says that... You have ctrl f. Use it.

that other article doesn't support that claim with any evidence that he pressured them to keep their patent, that he bragged about it, or had any say in the final decision.

Not sure what "evidence" you want... Bill Gates said it was true himself and did multiple interviews talking about it which are not hard to find. Every article I can find online says the same story - that Oxford initially planned to open license the vaccine and then Gates pressured them to change course.

I'm young and a student and I have most of my savings in a VMFXX money market account which I basically use as a low risk place to set and forget my money. Most of this fund is federal cash and securities. I like that it is there when I need it and that it makes more interest than a savings account.

I've been hearing vague things about Elon Musk messing with the treasury since Trump got elected and there is just seems to be a lot more uncertainty in the federal government overall.

The value of the money in this money market account has never dropped before, but is there any risk that the current administration could mess things up enough that my savings could be at risk? If so, is there anywhere else I could leave my money that would be similarly low risk but earn more interest than a savings account with my credit union?

Every once in a while, the heating element seems to break on my Gaggenau EB 378 610 oven. Other than that, it works fine.

This time though, I am unable to find a replacement part since the manufacturer discontinued it. I searched everywhere online and on eBay, but was still unable to find it.

I would rather not buy a new oven since that would be very expensive and I like this one. Does anyone have any ideas about where I can find a replacement heating element? Or am I out of luck?

It's a convection element, part #00098494, 100L
