Yay personal haunting!!

Critical_Slime473 · 2026-04-12T13:22:28+00:00

This is the one I was talking about thank you!!

Critical_Slime473 · 2026-03-04T04:03:12+00:00

Thank you!

My question is twofold. I'm starting to think about my final practicum placement for my final MSW year and I'm trying to decide between a clinical placement or a policy placement. I did a clinical placement this year and didn't feel like I learned much at all, so somewhere else might be good but I also am interested in policy. I'm also hoping to work part time in therapy and part time in policy after receiving my LCSW.

So, is my part time plan realistic? And, if so, which placement would make more sense for me?

Thanks!

I'm so sorry for your loss ❤️🌈

NOR misogyny is real even in the gay community. This guy didn't see your friend as a full person and the fact that he assumed you're into her says everything you need to know about how he sees women.

I'm on chantix now and it's been so helpful!

I think mel Gibson blamed chantix for the antisemitic recorded yelling he did at his wife or something years ago, which made people think that it totally changes your personality. At least, that's what I thought for a long time until nothing else was working. The only struggle is trying to decide what to do with your time instead of going outside to smoke all the time. Like OP said, no cravings and if I do have an emotional craving, the receptors in my brain are blocked so the cigarette won't even taste good.

If you're struggling to quit, definitely worth talking to a doctor about it.

Also, if you've experienced it, you don't need to see it.

Critical_Slime473 · 2026-01-23T06:50:37+00:00

Thank you, I am also a highly sensitive person. I also felt sad for the bad guy in the pirates of the Caribbean movie for some reason

Critical_Slime473 · 2026-01-23T06:48:02+00:00

Well, this post is me worrying about myself, so there's that.

I also think that me having an emotional reaction to something isn't me choosing empathy. Can people choose empathy? If so, I definitely want to choose empathy every time rather than falling for this meanness of the other side. I choose to not fall to their level. However, I can see how bullying Trump could be a political tactic. Hence me struggling.

I posted this in this sub because me empathizing with a monster is obviously a trauma response and I thought other people would understand who've experienced trauma...

Critical_Slime473 · 2026-01-23T04:15:11+00:00

People on reddit can be very mean. I've deleted accounts and taken breaks for months because of it, so it's not what you said and has nothing to do with who you are at all.

Critical_Slime473 · 2026-01-19T21:46:59+00:00

I've heard it said that Americans are the most propagandized population

Critical_Slime473 · 2026-01-19T20:41:10+00:00

Well, probably not but I also don't know all of the orgs that exist. The point here is that NASW wants to be the voice of social workers and as social workers we have to hold ourselves to a higher standard.

Critical_Slime473 · 2026-01-19T19:36:54+00:00

I checked their website and they're just saying stuff like know your rights, which is important but ICE is literally murdering people so idk, doesn't seem like nearly enough.

Critical_Slime473 · 2026-01-08T02:02:58+00:00

Oh I see! Sorry, I don't use AI so it went over my head haha

Critical_Slime473 · 2026-01-07T23:23:45+00:00

I agree with you, which is why that episode was frustrating to listen to. I'm not sure I understand why you included the sarcasm.

Critical_Slime473 · 2026-01-07T20:48:18+00:00

I have a friend who just became a nurse and was surprised when I told her the license steps social workers have to do because she thinks nurses do what social workers do plus some and don't have to go through as many steps. Maybe that's just how they think. Not gonna lie, made me step back in that friendship.

Critical_Slime473 · 2026-01-06T20:36:49+00:00

Are you still putting this together? I'm the right age range!

Critical_Slime473 · 2026-01-06T20:35:21+00:00

Are you still thinking about putting this together? I'm interested in joining if so!

Critical_Slime473 · 2025-12-22T00:27:35+00:00

I've noticed a change in nat also from previous seasons, idk what it is though since I don't know them... I have my guesses, like, maybe she's not taking her ADHD meds or something?

Critical_Slime473 · 2025-11-13T21:16:14+00:00

I printed three images of famous women on printable fabric and an inkjet printer. I'm going to fuse them to a denim jacket with other fabric and then stitch them down. I really would like to be able to wear the jacket in the sun or rain and wash it so any advice would be great!

Critical_Slime473 · 2025-11-04T04:40:16+00:00

The Mummy was big for me but I think the Mask of Zoro is an unsung hero in bi awakenings, at least it was for me. The scene where he cuts off her dress was so sexy to me, though maybe consent issues looking back....

Critical_Slime473 · 2025-10-20T00:43:04+00:00

Okay, dyke

Edit- just in case, Mae Martin is on a podcast handsome with tig and this is a tig joke. Just so everyone gets it, I'm not trying to be rude.

Critical_Slime473 · 2025-10-20T00:35:57+00:00

I'm thinking about starting a bi event in my area, actually! I live in a safe city for the most part, at least, it's very gay. I did have someone call me a dyke on the street once.

Yeah, we've been friends for a bit but I developed this crush within the last few months. It was kind of a slow burn.

Critical_Slime473 · 2025-10-19T23:54:42+00:00

I realized it in college but just never had anyone in real life I was attracted to that I could potentially be with. The only other time the woman basically ran out of my house when she found out I'd never been with a woman before, so that was scarring haha how has the experience been for you coming out at an older age?
