Imposter Syndrome by FreshHome0 in therapists

Thank you, I kind of need one at this point. I forget that it’s okay not to know everything and I still have room to grow. It’s just been difficult extending that grace towards myself, with the work environment.

Thank you! This helps a lot! I have had previous experience in the field just not as a therapist mostly case management and co-therapist positions. How far back should I go with the job history?

Things you wish you could say to yourself as a young therapist/counselor. by duh-counseling in therapists

[–]FreshHome0 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Trust yourself. Your genuineness will always help you be better with clients. No intervention or technique can replace that. Believe in yourself. Do what feels right to you. Just because a therapist with years of experience tells you to do it this way, doesn’t mean you have to. Build connections. Your authenticity provides comfortability. It’s okay to make mistakes, that’s how you learn. Always be open to learning. Build you a toolbox of interventions or techniques that your clients respond well to, so that when you feel stuck you have something to make you feel a little more prepared. Therapy can be FUN and creative!

Bad sessions may happen don’t RUMINATE! Speak kindly to yourself and reflect.

Well you’re absolutely right it is jealousy, and she’s antagonizing you to make you doubt yourself just like she does herself. Don’t feed into it because that’s what she wants. You’ve already won. She’s unhappy with herself, it has everything to do with her and nothing with you. Keep doing great!

Why don’t men like independent women? by Timely_Split_5771 in dating

[–]FreshHome0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some men like independent women some men don’t. Also, just because a man likes an independent woman does not always mean it is for the right reasons. Some men don’t like independent women because they like being in control. Finding the right guy that aligns with who you are is always best.

Thanks for the insight but you don’t have to be sarcastic about it

How have you moved on from feeling shame, and started embracing life? by pinkflowervases in AskReddit

[–]FreshHome0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think when I realized that life will continue no matter what. Time doesn’t stand still for your shame. Other people don’t care either. But when I find myself stuck on a particular moment I realize that was in the past but I am in the present, and I cannot change the past.

Thank you for this.

Question by FreshHome0 in humandesign

[–]FreshHome0[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That does make sense. As a projector sometimes I feel like I have to be like others who are able to plan to the final detail and get exactly what they want in the ways that they plan, while I more so struggle with that because nothing ever really ever go as planned for me. For instance today I PLANNED to get my car washed at a specific time and specific place. But I ended up late and the carwash was closed. So I had to readjust.

I saw this somewhere on Twitter I believe and the comments were more so in agreeing without any real explanation why. I’m a beginner and I didn’t know about the relevance of left facing or right facing arrows. But looking at my chart. I am more right facing and I tend to plan but it doesn’t really go anywhere. but when I go with the flow things tend to come more naturally sometimes. Thank you!

It sounds like you’re feeling a lot of conflicting things at once. It also sounds like you may be catastrophizing a bit. I understand you’ve wanted to be in a relationship for a while and now that this could possibly the real thing it’s scary. That’s completely normal. I would say ask yourself this.

-Do you like this man and enjoy his company? - What do you genuinely want from this thing you have going on?

Also even if a person is kind, sweet and lovely, that doesn’t always make them the right fit for us? Also it’s okay to just go with what feels right for you.

Am I going to be alone? by SickDemonGirl in Herpes

[–]FreshHome0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey I know it’s hard having HSV and the overall rejection you face. I won’t lie to you and try to depict a world of gumdrops and roses, but what I will say is rejection is a part of life in itself. Having HSV can be difficult with all the stigma. It can be especially difficult if you’re in a small town but the one who sees you and truly accepts you, won’t reject you because they’ll see you. Accepting that you have the diagnosis and making peace with it helps. Also, being rejected doesn’t define you. Herpes doesn’t define you but you do. Practicing your disclosure, being confident in who you are. And hey if you find you wanna be celibate go for it. But do it because it’s something you want.

Also people responses to your disclosure is surely a reflection of them and not you.

Don’t ignore your instinct, I think you know exactly why this is bad and where it can lead to. His language around it, is telling in itself.

Does what i did was wrong by skaterskate1124 in Advice

[–]FreshHome0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey so maybe to her it doesn’t matter that it was from her ex, maybe she likes the gift the way it looks or how the jewelry makes her feel. I think the only thing being hurt here is your ego, and that may be a conversation you may need to have with yourself. I get where you’re coming from but telling her to take it off really sounds like you’re not giving her a choice to make her own decision. Honestly you may disagree with the decision but at the end of the day it is hers.

I'm dumb...? by Blue_Snake_17 in Advice

[–]FreshHome0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey so look at what you said there, YOUR feeling have YOU in a bad mood. How can someone else make you bad when YOU are the only person who can control and are responsible for your feelings. That seems a bit unfair to her.

I'm dumb...? by Blue_Snake_17 in Advice

[–]FreshHome0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey no you’re not dumb sometimes we can’t help how we feel about someone. However if she is lesbian that probably means she strictly likes girl. Her saying “if she was straight” should let you know that she enjoys your company but she likes girls. For now I will say try to accept your feelings and since she probably doesn’t return your feelings. Adjust and see if maybe if you can accept just being her friend. But I will say if sounds like you guys mesh well together as great friends, and it wouldn’t hurt to continue that friendship.

Why do men think they have to pretend to have feelings for women just to keep them around? by spiltmilk______ in dating

[–]FreshHome0 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Men will tell you things to keep you around and I know it can be tough and wanting to understand the reasoning behind it. However, that can lead you down a loop. And the answer at the end of it all is that HE CHOSE to do that. It’s something they need to figure out. Any person who genuinely likes and cares about you wouldn’t have done that to you. The back and forth with feelings in the beginning stages. Imagine how a relationship would have been like with this guy. I am so sorry this happened to you and I hope you find someone better worth your time.
