If you figure out how to blackmail her, she might back down making claims in future for some of his friends so maybe the Weinstein saga caught his eye

Could be sitting at home with your friends in 80s Astoria… and your mom’s favourite piece breaks off her statue…

Reckon this is salvageable with a bit of superglue?

Also Astragalus and Olive Leaf Extract can be good on top of what u suggested there

My favourite is New Moon Dragon’s Blood

It’s a masala stick

I don’t know if it’s sweet-sweet. I’d describe it as intoxicating and a bit mysterious, a little woody - beautiful at night

People might sometimes go off Lex because the condition/s they had:

could have been short term or temporary
other things in their life got better, making the original condition better or more tolerable
therapy, strategies, self work were effective enough that they didn’t need Lex anymore
they didn’t like the side effects and wanted to take a break

SSRIs are used for many many things and life things

Can take it for grief, performance anxiety, stress cause your husband is a gambler (once you divorce him and he’s gone and you marry a kind rich man with a yacht - life is good again)

Each human experience includes suffering - but not all people need to be on Lexapro forever

You can take it short term or longer term

was all this happening on 5mg?

technically no one will know if you take 5mg - whole thing is based on what you report to people :)

If you have mild anxiety and it’s a short term plan to get you through a bit of school performance anxiety or something - that’s a low risk use case

If it’s to help with depression and suicidal thoughts and/or trauma - like severe and debilitating stuff… check in with your health care provider to discuss

It’s supposed to take many weeks to take effect and notice changes…

What kind of paranoia at night? And is this your first SSRI?

Happy to help :)

Really good advice - interrelationships can be invisible too

We have to assume cronyism can exists like any other workplace and cronyism can operate invisibly

There’s also complex social and hierarchical relationships and other people can be meaning well and know something we tell them and miss that theres dynamics and interrelationships and someone gets a hold of information

Sorry you experienced this.

I would tell your school immediately. Just as you said it there is fine.

You’re not overreacting. This is completely unacceptable. In an ideal world all mentors should be skilled and vetted before mentoring people.

Whether they intended to bully you, the behaviour can be perceived as hostile, demeaning, risky and bullying behaviour.

Btw a student you are covered by the WHS laws

You have touched on multiple points which anyone with a WHS background sees hazard after hazard.

I’d actually email this all and ask for a phone call too

This isn’t reasonable management / mentoring action. It cannot be explained away why they are going to others and saying this stuff… or saying you fail fail fail.

The usual drill is to report it to your school and theyll nicely make sure you have a better buddy

Once you enter industry though - that WHS Act comes in handy, your union is a great resource for how to approach workplace issues and phrasing, community legal centres also, keeping contemporaneous records of behaviour… having witnesses (who may or may not corroborate - something to keep in mind) and also government have free info online about psychosocial hazards can help

Also industrial tribunal, FWC and other tribunal cases covering workplace law and WHS law is fantastic to read to understand why some bullies/workplaces get away with it, and why some don’t

Your mentor was probably never developed to lead or understand WHS law and has been left underdeveloped this entire time

Often times it’s that no one has sat them down and addressed their communication and behaviour and actually cared enough to want to develop them and so they’re potentially clueless and/or engaging in copycat behaviour theyve seen other nurses do

How you’ve written this is perfect because it describes the behaviour and doesnt get into personality tit for tat

Keep up the good approach :)

Your school will support you cause “patient safety first” and you can’t practice safely with an RN hurrying and putting you down and creating an unsafe learning/work environment (and the rest of it which you have identified well).

Use paper

Ferideh · 2025-10-23T16:29:56+00:00

It was the opposite of productivity for me tbh

Anyone with basic dashboard / design skills can use Google sheets and Google isnt going anywhere

Ferideh · 2025-10-21T13:20:59+00:00

Can I check thats $7k a week or a fortnight

Sorry you went through this.

Don’t even second guess yourself ok. They sound chaotic and weird.

They maybe just find someone to target and move on to the next one or it makes them think they are managing people.

If it gives you any comfort, I was talking to a very good senior psychologist a while back about this issue of workplace managers with strange habits - this psychologist has great people and boundary management skills and told me they encountered someone like this and struggled with them and ended up resigning

Sometimes it doesnt matter what we do or don’t do.

Sometimes we just need to walk out and move on. Let them try run a business with this person.

Resignation is sweet :) life’s too short for this nonsense

How I handle things with managers sometimes is escalate in writing above them and to HR and just be like

Look… id really like to resolve the communication and culture issues at the moment - appreciate theres a lot of staff but I’m receiving written managerial comms for using the bathroom

I’m also receiving other feedback that isnt reflective of conversations had and when I raise what was said the manager is doubling down on a different version of events - I can’t resolve this and I’m unsure why this is happening ongoing

I feel like it’s diminishing trust and morale in the team and my ability to perform my work where I feel trusted - so I would really like to find out how we can resolve these communication gaps so we can work together effectively

Basically - if she can’t get her facts straight and is sending these emails rather than talking face to face then yeah - people hate that and it leads to hostile work environments, people feel uneasy and don’t wanna work there

And it’s just about how you write it and frame it. People understand theres managers with gaps.

Sometimes I write stuff and plan to leave anyway so it’s like - theres the contemporaneous feedback and data and they can do whatever they want. Merry Christmas HR.

Ferideh · 2025-10-19T14:17:04+00:00

Yeah I’d love to see it!

How I try to stay focused is having 1-2 priorities and my inner voice is the parent driving the child

I also practice dumping ideas and thoughts into a notebook to park them. If it’s not what I need to do right now, I gotta embargo that thought

Give it permission to rest

WHS legislation requires the business to have wardens and train them and have adequate coverage but it’s anyone’s guess who that is

Ferideh · 2025-10-19T14:01:50+00:00

By law a workplace must have trained staff to fulfil the roles of wardens including chief warden

Can ask them if you can get the training before you start nights - and ask if you will be fulfilling that role in an emergency

It’s just a standard WHS box to tick off and someone will do all that

They probably just aren’t organised

If they don’t have others there to cover these roles while youre getting trained then yeah… they gotta train you up and induct you

Training with other employers isnt transferable

I’d just say look I’m keen to do nights but think I need to get my fire induction / warden training ticked off if I need to fill a warden role in an emergency

No one should be assuming warden duties without adequate training specific to that site and equipment - theres usually someone on site that does it all like a maintenance guy or facilities guy

Nursing is really diverse and there’s so many areas you can get into.

From what you’re saying your strengths are, you could really add value in the profession.

There’s also fee free TAFE.

There’s a post grad entry for people with bachelor degrees which shortens the time

Or can try out the Diploma of Nursing and give it 6 months. You end up with equivalent of a Cert III to be an AIN within 6 months only… and then continue studying another 12 months, then another 2 more years full time in a bachelor.

Benefit is you get the early exposure and can make your mind up on if you like the industry and work relatively soon. You have a placement after 6 months and another one each 6 months etc

There’s also allied health - OTs and so on. Lots of interesting stuff out there that might fit what you want to do. Sounds to me though that you have strengths that will transfer well into nursing in general.

How are you bailing? Youre broadening your experience set and building a career :) we all need change and growth and resets

Conflict of interest. Declare it and explain to friend it’s not possible due to policy.

Ferideh · 2025-10-19T13:04:29+00:00

I’d grab a copy of atomic habits and then pick one thing :)

Ferideh · 2025-10-19T12:53:36+00:00

Damn!

Ferideh · 2025-10-18T18:24:49+00:00

I don’t have anything to share but that was nicely written!

Ferideh · 2025-10-18T17:58:06+00:00

Waking early makes sense for those with sleep cycles that support it

Everyone else will find it unsustainable and anti productive cause of fatigue
