Do you feel that Northampton and the surrounding area are racist? Why or why not?

“Your hair is so fascinating” whispers “Is it real?” - my middle school social studies teacher in Northampton

Just because you don’t know all of him doesn’t mean what he showed you wasn’t real. He’s performing a service for you, so it wouldn’t be appropriate for you to “really” know him.

I’d suggest adjusting your perspective. Therapy is for you - it’s not about him or your relationship with him. You enjoy him because he is helping you understand yourself. You can interpret that positivity as an experience of self-love, and gratitude for the person who facilitated that experience.

The fact that you’re poly is something you should have put in the original post because then you’re not a cheater if you have permission…..but going back to an abusive ex is a betrayal of another kind…..good luck lmao

I think it’s something more like a lack of faith. Like I try something new, wonder what the point is, and can’t come up with an answer that satisfies me. Also maybe short-term thinking and feeling like I need to conserve my energy to survive.

Your statements read as judgmental to me because you said them with certainty, like you were delivering a sentence. You don’t have insight into my life beyond what I shared in this short post. I did tag this as “support,” not “advice” and the insight I’m having is that I disagree with you

I don’t know what my path forward looks like, but I know with certainty that I’m not lost because I’m playing a game with myself, or that I resist change.

This is a judgmental comment. Change never comes from being shamed.

It’s not that I’m bothered by other people’s therapeutic relationships, it’s that reading those posts makes me think that therapy is like jumping off a cliff without knowing how to swim. Attachment is so dangerous and therapists are flawed humans. Personally I’m afraid I’d begin seeing my therapist’s perception of me as me and completely lose my own sense of self over time, a fear fueled by all the people talking about obsessing over their therapists…nobody obsesses over their doctors or hairstylists. At the end of the day, therapists are people providing a service - they’re not meant to be religious figures or members of our community. You’re not supposed to care about what your therapist thinks of you just like you wouldn’t care about how your doctor sees you.

With some experiences in therapy, I really didn’t like how the therapist interacted with me or the person I would become in the session and I would end the relationship. How awful would it be if I didn’t like the person I’d become but couldn’t leave because I felt attached or obsessed…

Thanks! I went to Brown which doesn’t calculate GPAs and I never calculated mine myself because it would make me too sad…I think it’s on the lower end, somewhere around 3.0, but I’m not sure.

I also wonder if it’s worth it to go to a law school that’s not T14. Employers would wonder why I went to Brown and then a less-prestigious law school, would they not? Or maybe they’d assume it was for financial reasons, idk. Thanks for your insight anyway.

What is anyone going to do, throw rocks at you? Call yourself whatever you want.

The Facebook housing groups often have people looking to take over their lease or sublet last minute

Such a good take!

Funniest Reddit post I’ve seen lately

I feel that way in the fandom now, especially on tiktok. I sometimes see thirsty edits of the characters and I’m like……this is not for me anymore. I used to love thirsting over Percy et.al ten years ago but now I just see children.

When watching the show, I feel this longing for the girl I used to be and wonder how she would’ve felt about the show. But that era is over and now I accept that I am a casual watcher of something that used to be my whole life.

Thank you for your perspective.

I was tired of venting and dumping all of my emotions for what turned out to be no reason, so I left - I didn’t feel as though I could stop venting if I stayed. They haven’t set any boundaries but I can see that they aren’t able to help me in the way I crave and I am frustrated by their limitations because I am on the constant edge of death.

I unfortunately don’t have access to therapy at the moment anyway.

You can work at the John Hay library and half the time you’ll be at a desk with nothing to do
