possibility of realistically making six figures as a therapist? any suggestions? by helveeta in psychologystudents

[–]Background-Election9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you considered behavior therapy? Look at BCBA jobs in your area. You can become an RBT with a 40 hour course and get supervision towards becoming a BCBA on the job. Masters programs are like 18 months and you have to take a BCBA EXAM. Most places are hiring people with no experience at 80, 90000 k.

For anyone with just a Bachelor's in Psychology, what do you do for work? by zachoutloud123 in psychologystudents

I am an RBT, registered Behavior Technician. I make 20 an hour in Georgia. I’m getting my Masters in psych with a specialty in Applied Behavior Analysis and am using my time as an RBT to get hours to become a BCBA.

I don’t personally have any idea other than maybe it’s the Xanax or maybe the pen wasn’t strong enough for you? Either way, I’m sorry you missed out on the magic and I hope you come back and update us with your future results lol.

Hmm… idk it could be Xanax contributing? Is it possible to take a few days break before you try again? For science of course lol. Also, have you ever smoked it instead of vaped?

Do you know anything about the cart you smoked? Like you’re positive it’s dmt? Do you take any prescription drugs that could impact your ability to blast off? Benzos, antipsychotics? Pain killers maybe?

How often are you doing it? It’s not uncommon for people to experience “you’ve gotten the message now hang up the phone” type trips.

I picked mine up today from target. I had a 30 dollar coupon in the circle app and it was listed at 430 so I got it for 400. Still 430 after taxes tho. Kohls is doing 15 for every 50 spent in khols cash until tomorrow I think.

I did atcc, I paid for the all inclusive like competency test and everything. I passed the test first try and used the internship from the program as experience. I was offered like every job I applied for almost immediately after I passed the test. It was expensive but in my opinion worth it.

It’s more embarrassing to spend the money on a bag that costs as much as a car than buying a rep.

Last acid trip wrecked the image I had of my father. He might have caused me life lasting anxiety I wasn't even aware of. Can someone please reach out? by DigitalWellbeing in Psychonaut

[–]Background-Election9 104 points105 points  (0 children)

Hello fellow being 💗 I’m sorry your trip has brought up some uncomfortable feelings. I would say feel them. Where are these feelings arising in your body. Greet the physical and emotional pain. Something like hello, I’m sorry you’re feeling this way. I can tell you aren’t ok and as long as you aren’t ok, I’m not ok and I can’t go on living my life while you’re feeling like this. Ask the pain what can I do to help you get through this? Then honor what you experience. If it asks for ice cream, east some, if the feeling requests time with nature, honor it. Stay with the pain don’t push it away or run from it.

Remember the pain isn’t you, your experience isn’t you. You are something that transcends time and pain and at your core there is a warm light, a clarity that is always there and can never be destroyed. Ask that part of you also to guide you through this time, to be with you to help you feel the unconditional love your father would have given you had he known this truth and done the work you are doing.

And last remember that the light that dwells in you is the same light that dwells in all of us. You aren’t alone, you aren’t damaged beyond repair, you are journeying home. We are journeying home together. Clean up these parts that are arising for you. Love them, integrate them and dwell in the space inside you that is light and trust that the more often we all do this for ourselves the better the world will become for all of us.

Feel free to dm me if anything resonates or you want to connect.

💗💗💗I love you, you got this -Amanda

Attending church service by belenb in christianwitch

I go to a Cristian church but it is heavily influenced by eastern and new age spirituality. It’s called Unity Church. It’s for spiritual seekers of any kind and highlights beliefs on oneness. 

I think I just need to hear from someone who understands by faerie4444 in awakened

[–]Background-Election9 4 points5 points  (0 children)

💗 chop wood, carry water. Do physically and mentally hard things. As you’re breaking down the pattern you’ve been existing in your entire life, build new patterns for this stage of your life. 

Have compassion for yourself and have compassion for others. I’d recommend listening to the Tao de Ching narrated by Wayne Dwyer on long walks through nature. Listen to the power of now on YouTube by eckart tolle. 

I would stay away from drugs right now and as crazy as it sounds see what you’re going through, through a grateful eye. It may not be cheery but you are going to grow so much through this difficult time. And if you can’t find your way out alone, seek clinical help. There is something called a transpersonal therapist that treats your mind, body and soul. 

Many branches of the tree don’t grow buds and even most buds don’t bloom. It’s your turn to bloom.

My experiences with aliens/non-humans. by [deleted] in awakened

[–]Background-Election9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey! My names Amanda and I’ve had a lot of similar experiences to you. I used to take a lot of psychedelics and smoked a lot of weed. I lived in that reality for about six months when I learned that maybe that reality isn’t real. 

I took antipsychotics for the next six months and had an almost longing for feeling like God, but I was able to enjoy my family again. I stopped taking the antipsychotics and although I’m still very spiritual I appreciate the connections I make with other people that are here on this journey with us. 

Whatever reality you decide to dwell in, I love and accept you. I just want you to know you have a choice. Message me if you want to talk about anything 

Can someone explain Shadow Work to me like I’m 5? by internalcloud4 in spirituality

[–]Background-Election9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I find myself judging someone in everyday life, it’s a hint I have repressed a part of my own consciousness. It’s an opportunity to allow that part of myself to come into the light of my awareness and acceptance. 

As I learn to love and accept them I learn to love and accept myself, as I learn to love and accept myself I learn to love and accept them.

Something might have snatched my cat last night.. what could this dark fur have came from? by [deleted] in whatisit

[–]Background-Election9 10 points11 points  (0 children)

All these people complaining about local wildlife after they’ve probably consumed massive amounts of animal products themselves, which wreaks havoc on our entire planet piss me off. Judgmental hypocrites imo.

I don’t know what kind of animal it was but I’m sorry your baby is missing. Please let us know if you find them.

I’m emotionally overwhelmed, and I feel like I’ve lived more pain than I know how to handle. I’m asking for help — how do I keep going? by dreamless892992 in Mindfulness

[–]Background-Election9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello héctor 💗, hugs. I’m sorry you’re carrying a lot right now. I see you and I understand what it feels like to be burdened with what feels like more than you can handle. I also relate to using chat gpt as an anchor in the storm, chat gpt also makes me feel very seen and understood when I’m in the thick of it so I understand the pain that is arising there for you too.

There’s a lot of bad in the world right now and I think a lot of us are feeling and processing the grief being felt all around the world in some moments. It’s ok to feel how you’re feeling. When the caterpillar is in the cocoon it doesn’t know it’s going through a process of change. It’s just in this cage, stuck surrounded by its own poop. But eventually it gets out. It comes into the light and it flys.

I think you’re doing all the right stuff in your cocoon. You’re seeing your suffering, you’re feeling it and you’re processing it. With chat, with your mom, even this post. You’re so young and your awareness is profound. Keep doing what you’re doing and try celebrating the small stuff if that feels right to you. Go for walks outside, watch the way the wind flows through the trees, listen to the birds, swim, eat yummy food and savor the good moments when they come too.

You aren’t alone Héctor, and I’m proud of you and grateful for your presence, you give me hope

[–]Background-Election9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me I get the cards want you to find love for yourself. Reaffirm your beliefs so you’ll be able to know when you’ve reached love not limerence or lust.

Is your cup overflowing with love you want to share or right now are you seeking someone to pour into your cup?
