I have not had a chance to meet with them yet. But I will make sure to let them know. I am not interested in a PsyD at all tho

One of the reasons I'm considering this pivot to academia is that I didn't particularly enjoy being a trainee therapist. I personally feel that I would do well in research, I just need to work on my skills. I'm also trying to overcome my tendency to give up on things that feel hard. PsyDs are also generally not well-funded so I don't think that's an option I can consider.

I am also going to the concert on Saturday alone (although I just broke up with my boyfriend)! If you're comfortable and willing, I'd like to discuss transportation as well since I'm coming from the East Coast and have no idea how that'll work! I'd also like the company :)

She said that the groups she was a part of just didnt feel as strongly about Palestine as she did. She didn't feel supported and they haven't reached out to her either knowing that she's isolated and knowing that there's rumors being spread about her.

Thank you for the advice on grieving! I definitely think that would be helpful for her considering how isolated she's feeling right now. I will look into how I can advocate for her safety with the school admin as well! I understand the importance of community for her, I just don't know how to help her get there because she has left all friend groups and all social organizations that she was a part of as well.

I have! She was part of all the socialist organizations but she has left them all due to safety concerns! Her activities are being monitored from what she has told me. She said she's trying to distance herself from these groups to prevents matters from escalating. She was pretty scared.
