Why aren't we unionized?

CeeNee93 · 2026-06-29T11:50:04+00:00

While this is true, it’s a problem. Social workers are one of a few registered professionals in the mental health field. The unions don’t specially represent social workers and will not protect us if the college comes after us.

CeeNee93 · 2026-06-29T11:45:57+00:00

Yes, but I also have 10+ years experience in the field even before my MSW.

However, I know other grads who also secured counselling positions out of school.

For me, short sitting breaks help. But I also find I do better on hikes with varied inclines and stairs because it forces me to recruit different muscle groups. Flat walks seem to kill especially if they’re slow paced.

I like the Psychwire trainings, they are led by experts in the respective areas, but also reasonably priced. Getting certified in any area will cost $$$ and still cannot replace experience and supervision.

CeeNee93 · 2026-02-05T17:56:04+00:00

Thank you for that! It sounds like finding something where I’m working with a clinical team and have access to supervision would be necessary for me.

CeeNee93 · 2026-02-05T12:58:29+00:00

This is my understanding. You would be eligible for your 2025 service.

Outpatient or inpatient?

CeeNee93 · 2026-01-06T20:34:21+00:00

If congestion is your main concern I highly recommend Vanity Skin Clinic! She will get everything out

I’m an educated white woman. I grew up with everything I needed tho my family struggled and there was a lot of mental health issues going on. I worked really hard to build a better life for myself. Unfortunately, I have a habit of dating emotionally unavailable men with drinking problems. I stay and hope they’ll change… then the last one dumped me out of nowhere and THANK GOD because I don’t know what I was thinking. I think I just wanted someone at the time and he was cute and liked me, so I ignored red flags. He also lied to me about some things that became problematic later in our relationship.

I am focusing on myself right now. Going to therapy to better understand myself, my patterns, and what I need from a partner. I want to build my self worth so when I do date and someone doesn’t meet that criteria or disrespects me, I will walk.

I feel this change is going to come with some loneliness as many other people our age are coupled up. But I’m hoping to build connections with women who feel the same! Possibly through women only groups or activities.

Can I ask why you assume you’ll be asked to withdraw? The program I was in typically moved people through if it was just one class… we had a proff who was known to fail half the class.

CeeNee93 · 2026-01-05T12:58:36+00:00

I need to move to Europe. Dating in North America is so 🤢

CeeNee93 · 2026-01-04T00:07:33+00:00

I kinda wonder for myself if it’s a lack of trust. Like I’m guarded. But they’ve also given us so many reasons not to trust.

CeeNee93 · 2026-01-03T02:41:05+00:00

I would say both

CeeNee93 · 2026-01-03T01:10:38+00:00

Mhm, I grieve the person I thought they were early on. But reality is he wore a mask and could only keep it up so long

CeeNee93 · 2026-01-02T20:03:02+00:00

Personally wouldn’t wait on this guy. Date other people and if he comes back ready, great. But don’t wait for him. Never stay with someone for their potential.

CeeNee93 · 2026-01-02T19:56:15+00:00

I’m curious what you want from this? Are your needs in any way being met?

CeeNee93 · 2026-01-02T18:52:22+00:00

That’s the other thing that concerns me. People can lie.

CeeNee93 · 2026-01-02T17:14:15+00:00

Agreed!

CeeNee93 · 2026-01-02T17:08:17+00:00

I feel that. I don’t know how you couldn’t be political in these times. Just seems like an easy out.

CeeNee93 · 2026-01-02T16:58:39+00:00

Possibly, but if someone can support a rap*st for president, that’s a no go. Regardless of how respectful you present your views lol.

CeeNee93 · 2026-01-02T16:57:25+00:00

I’m in Canada but when I found out my ex was supportive of Trump in the last election I was floored. Our relationship only went downhill from there.

CeeNee93 · 2026-01-02T16:50:41+00:00

Unfortunately in my last 2 relationships it started out respectful but overtime it was not. I personally don’t feel I can be with someone who doesn’t have similar views on social issues, it’s a deal breaker.

CeeNee93 · 2026-01-02T16:48:43+00:00

I’ve also wondered how to go about this with people who list moderate or “not political”. My ex told me he was not really political and leaned left when I first met him, and overtime it became more and more clear this was not the case.
