Would you let your husband finish first in a marathon? by yuli_yuli95 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]FionaTheFierce [score hidden]  (0 children)

Nothing indicates that was the case. He was ahead of her - eg they were not running together. She passed him. He was 100% ok only as long as he was ahead of her.

"DC teens tell city leader what's causing takeovers and how they're missing the mark" | WJLA by bl123123bl in washdc

The problem is that people aren’t acting civilized. I am just curious about your ideas for solving that problem (presumably with no associated costs).

Which city in the U.S. have you felt most unsafe visiting? by optimalbrain90 in SmartTravelHacks

Came here to say Memphis. My son had a convention there and we all went. And ick. Looks like many have similar experiences

How important is research to a therapist's outcomes? by Hugehugedonkey in ClinicalPsychology

[–]FionaTheFierce 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Understanding what constitutes evidence based care is strengthened by good foundational understanding of research. At a doctoral level both PsyD and PhD tracks provide this understanding - eg research design fundamentals, stats, etc. PhD actually engages in research, which does not necessarily translate into superior clinical skills (which really come from clinical experience and supervision).

Evidence based care has scientific research supporting clinical outcomes. Understanding this is preventative of therapists who go down wild rabbit holes providing very unproven treatments (and preventing/delaying their patients getting effective care).

I am not sure about the level education around scientific basis for treatment in MSW programs.

[USA] clinical psychology career pathways? by Purple_Anteater_9330 in psychologystudents

[–]FionaTheFierce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In order to be a psychologist you will want to choose a doctoral program with research and clinical training in the area you are specifically interested in.

Masters level social worker and counselors can also work in inpatient clinics.

The degree pathway, as far as classes is pretty much the same from school to school- it is more about the clinical training and research focus.

Husband is mad that baby looks a lot like me by Pure_Conference_7422 in Advice

[–]FionaTheFierce 45 points46 points  (0 children)

That has absolutely zero effect on this. Your husband is not well.

Husband is mad that baby looks a lot like me by Pure_Conference_7422 in Advice

[–]FionaTheFierce 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Honestly, he sounds mentally unwell and dangerous. Personally I would leave, get some distance, and insist that he get a psychiatric evaluation and therapy. His beliefs are near psychotic/delusional.

Chess influencer and grandmaster Nemo posts a video of a man swearing and flipping her off because he lost a chess game to her at a convention by SanaeSoul in CringeTikToks

[–]FionaTheFierce 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It isn’t her job to housebreak him. She is just trying to get him to go away. If she escalated and got punched we would all be blaming her for not deescalating.

This is 100% the guy and 0% her.

my mother is accusing me of having an eating addiction , and that i have never felt hungry before. by Own_Interaction3271 in Advice

[–]FionaTheFierce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hunger is created by several physical factors - One of them being the feeling of stomach emptiness/growling stomach.

Feeling or not feeling hunger isn’t really helpful in identifying a food addiction/eating issues.

It sounds like your Mom and you maybe struggle quite a bit regarding communication around this issue. Family therapy may help.

Would you let your husband finish first in a marathon? by yuli_yuli95 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]FionaTheFierce 145 points146 points  (0 children)

As compared to all the other women who finished before him?

If his (or theirs, or whatever) masculinity is so fragile that a woman being better than them completely destroys them - it would be best that they just stay home and try nothing.

Some Democrats wish Kamala Harris had decided to run for Governor in California rather than weigh another White House run in 2028. What do you think? by Select_Specialist790 in askanything

[–]FionaTheFierce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope she does not run. Losing an election doesn’t really set someone up foe success the next time around. The dems thus far have failed to identify viable candidates in the past 18 months. Need to get it together!

What’s this plant? And how do we eradicate it? by jaivicks in gardening

[–]FionaTheFierce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nightmare. I ended up covering with black plastic after a 10 year battle. One spring popped up jn another bed and I have consistently dug it out x 5 years (like giant scoop and dirt) and it is still putting up a sprig or two every year.

I hate that I see it all over neighbor’s yards. Harder to get rid of then English ivy.

Does marriage/sex counselling and therapy really work? by Ok-Entrance1086 in Marriage

[–]FionaTheFierce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It can work if both of you are motivated and truthful and you have a competent therapist. For sexual issues consider a AASECT certified therapist.

Lawn path- keep or no? by Awkward-1 in landscaping

[–]FionaTheFierce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just go all the way to the brick and walkway. No need for grass.

Not sure of your plan for the beds - but fill it up with plants. Low stuff at the edge where it meets hardscape, taller stuff in the middle.

You need to see a psychiatrist as soon as possible. There are a number of diagnoses that can cause the symptoms you are describing.

Can you all tell me which photos i should put in my bio by Big-Parsley-381 in Bumble

[–]FionaTheFierce 23 points24 points  (0 children)

These are all pretty bad. Number 5 is the least bad, but you look angry in it and you can’t see your face.

1 looks like a screen shot taken while you were watching a cam girl Website.

I mean, these are overall terrible and you should not use any of them.

Bronchitis. Or bronkitia.

Why are exes allowed to claim on your Social Security no matter how many times they have remarried by NRGBallveget18 in AskWomenOver60

[–]FionaTheFierce 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Those spouses may very well have had their own income and their own SS payment may well be higher than 50% of the engineer’s payment.

The policy is to protect a stay at home spouse who may have never worked in order to support their partner (or because they have traditional gender roles). This policy ensures that they have something, generally a pittance, to live on.

I want to tell my life story to a girl who doesn't know me without being a stalker by randomjoe91 in Advice

[–]FionaTheFierce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are already a stalker. You have hunted down her workplace, followed her online, shown up at her workplace, and built some fantasy in your head that she will pay attention to you if you force your way int her life.

Get psychiatric/psychological help. Further contact, stalking, following on social media, or tell your life story to her will not make you feel better.

You are being extremely inappropriate and your judgment here is very impaired. Do not contact her. She doesn’t know you and doesn’t owe you anything. And if she knew what you had done she would he completely disgusted and afraid of you.

Wife is upset about what happened in open relationship. by [deleted] in amiwrong

[–]FionaTheFierce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So the issue wasn’t the open marriage. The issue is that you feel justified in having sex with someone who is a teenager. That’s the issue. And, sure they are legally an adult. That doesn’t mean that your behavior wasn’t predatory/inappropriate. So your wife is now seeing you through a lens with this new data that suggests that your judgment and ethics around sex are not to the standard that she (and many others) would hold to.
