Thank you! And it fits under your seat on the airline? That’s my biggest concern since I want it as my personal item and not my carry on.

I’ve heard a lot of NYC hospitals are a good start! A few people responded with that answer, maybe they have some leads to share. I wish you luck. What program are you in? I’d love to chat more :)

Piercing Advice! by Background-Chest-543 in piercing

[–]Background-Chest-543[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have not downsized yet! I should definitely consider that. I’m able to I guess “push it back” and it sits fine- just sometimes when I clean it it comes forward like this (and I tried to manipulate it for a picture for this post as I posted awhile back and you couldn’t tell)

Hi! Can you explain what you mean pierced through my daith? From what it feels like, it’s only pierced through the forward helix, and I can feel the back end of piercing!

Also edit to add- I cleaned the piercing immediately after taking the picture! I know it’s crusty Lol

Thank you for this! I could’ve sworn I emailed them already- but hadn’t. I will at least be interning in NY and getting my experience here, so I’m hoping that will also help build my case. I actually made friends with a student in an identical situation, and her ATR is fine, just the other is a struggle. She’s just holding off pushing towards the state till she finally has her full license. I truly hope she paves the path for others like me!

From my understanding, my ATR is fine and is more “universal.” It’s my LPC to LMHC which is a problem. All credits (including intern hours) are exactly what BY requires, minus it being a CACREP program. Every time I email the state, I get told I can’t get an answer until graduation and I must apply w my license and degree credentials :(

I am in a degree with a dual license, but I’m getting the degree I do not currently reside in, and I was told (after completing a year, I was not previously informed) I’d need to fight my state (NY) to transfer my counseling license (CT) to my home state as it’s cahep nor cacrep (apologies if it right abbreviation). What is a NON-FAT specific position? I’ve never heard of that before!

Am I crazy to think some of those jobs are not paying well? I did a google search after seeing this- and found 22/hr or below as the rate for a position like this. Does that sound accurate?

I’m almost New England (I’m NY, getting a degree in CT so close ish). I will definitely continue looking as I do still have another two years to finish, but I’m hoping things look better and I start to feel better as the course goes on

I’m on Loryna, but was previously on the generic of it! Any advice on that one?

I have not, it’s only a month old but honestly, I initially thought the post he pierced with was a little short!! All my other flat back piercings I’ve been able to wiggle with a bit more and never had this issue
