Using Athena overseas
Kind of a specific question, but I know some people here use Athena, so thought I'd try. Athena doesn't allow login from non-US IP addresses. I discovered this last year when I went to Costa Rica, and my plan to check in on my messages fell apart, leaving my partners to cover everything for me for the week. I'm planning another international trip this year, to Belize, and want to try to avoid that problem. Has anyone ever used a personal VPN like Nord to login to Athena while outside of...

My parents want to take my heroin addict brother on an Ayahausca trip...
So my brother has been a heroin addict for years now. He has been to in patient and out patient treatment programs for the last few years and has just finished methadone. He as far as we know is not currently using opiates. He is smoking weed and doing hallucinogens occasionally.
He has somehow convinced my parents that they should take him on a luxury vacation to Costa Rica to undergo an Ayahuasca experience as he feels like this will heal his addiction once and for all.
My major problem...

Drunk Pre-Med SDN
I was browsing through the pre-vet forums and noticed that they have nearly 400 pages of a thread titled "Drunk Pre-Vet SDN". I'm envious so I think we should start our own.
My girlfriend's mother got back from Costa Rica this morning and brought me back a bottle of whiskey that's pretty damn good. Mods please don't close this thread. (Source: Student Doctor Network)
