I donate 2-3 times a year. I take a break every few years, things like tattoos and such. I’m O- and they don’t let me forget to donate for too long.

My dad was shot in high school (hunting incident) and received donations. He became a regular donor after, and i guess just set a good example of donating for us to see as kids.

Huh, in the US, they allow donors with antidepressants and ADHD meds. Source, im a regular donor who has been on both.

Pro tip: When our move-out day approached, we asked our landlord cleaners they used. We hired them to clean up, since they would clean to the LL’s specs. They could also provide tips on other things tennants often get dinged on too, so we could address.

Not everyone has cash to hire cleaners, but their rate was about what I usually lose on deposits.
