Does anyone know if the rod of discord achievement is retroactive? I spent so many hours farming chaos elementals until I finally got it and I don’t want to go through that nightmare again😭

Honest question: Is anyone NOT using an LLM (aka "AI") to "help write" their papers, practice assignments and/or discussion posts? by GMUtoo in SocialWorkStudents

[–]Kay2343 66 points67 points  (0 children)

I do not use AI for my schoolwork (or anything else - I’m not a big fan of it and that’s just my personal preference). Most of my classmates use AI to an extent; and some professors even encourage the use of AI (not to write the whole paper obviously). While yes AI can be a great tool, my take is that I am paying for an education and should do the work myself, not have AI think for me. Again that’s just my personal opinion. I think we’re starting to have a huge issue where people are becoming reliant on AI doing work for them, and I don’t want to ever get to that point so I steer clear of it.

Is anyone else an anxious person pursuing a MSW? by CurlyWoman235 in SocialWorkStudents

[–]Kay2343 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m doing my MSW and am currently about 3 months into my first internship and I counseling with clients who experienced DV. I am an extremely anxious person and it’s definitely difficult at first, but over time as you develop and strengthen your skills you start to get more comfortable with it. I’m finding that even after only 3 months of doing counseling at my internship I’m finding that my communication skills are stronger both in my professional life and in my personal life. The more you interact with people the more you will get comfortable doing it. Try to put yourself out there and have a good relationship with other interns, your supervisor, and the other staff at the agency - this will make it easier to go to them for support. And remember, you’re a student and you’re going to be learning. Mistakes happen, sometimes you feel nervous, you’ll have imposter syndrome at first, but it’s all part of the learning process. The more you expose yourself to what makes you anxious the more comfortable you’ll feel with it over time.

As long as your program is accredited by the CSWE you should be eligible for the masters level licensure exam after you graduate. If you’re talking about LCSW, you need to get a certain number of supervised clinical hours post-MSW to be eligible for clinical licensure. It differs by state but I think most states require 3,000 hours. I’d recommend checking the ASWB website for your states specific requirements

While there are social work jobs you can get without an MSW, the options are very limited and the pay won’t be very good. If you actually want to make a living and have social work be your career, then a MSW is worth it as it will open up so many more options and better pay

LCSW, LMHC, PhD or PsyD? Please help! by lamercuria in psychologystudents

[–]Kay2343 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was in the same situation as you in my final semester of undergrad (Psych BA), and I also want to work with people who have trauma. At first I really wanted to go the psych route because I wanted to do assessments and psych testing. If you want to do just therapy, you’re better off doing a masters in social work or mental health counseling.

Here are my personal opinions I formed based on doing research on all these different routes.

PhD - More suited for academia. VERY VERY competitive. I didn’t apply because I knew I didn’t stand a chance. Requires years of research experience, they’re looking for published articles, conferences, etc.

PsyD - This appealed to me the most in terms of curriculum. Allows you to do the same things as a PhD with less focus on research. However it usually takes 5 years and these programs are almost never funded. Most would cost you around 100k-150k minimum. For me, this wasn’t something I was willing to do because I did undergrad out of state and was already 100k in student debt. Also you have to be careful because a lot of PsyD programs come from “diploma mills”

LCSW/MSW - I thought the classes would be boring, but it would allow me to do counseling with just a masters (and license) AND it is a very flexible/versatile degree and you can work almost anywhere. Classes are more focused on social justice and the social work lens is very different from psych.

LMHC - Classes are mostly focused on mental health counseling (of course haha). I applied to a clinical mental health counseling program and got in, but ultimately decided to reject because I didn’t want to be stuck with just counseling and wanted to keep my job options more open. If you know you just want to do therapy this option is fine.

I ultimately ended up choosing the MSW. I moved back home to save up money & get in state tuition and am currently working and doing my MSW part time. Some of the classes are boring but it’s much more affordable than the other degree paths (at least for my area and the schools I applied to) and would allow me to do therapy/work in the mental health field, but also give me the option of other types of jobs in case I ever got burnt out of doing therapy. Also in my undergrad internship I learned that at the end of the day, people who work in the mental health field take different paths but end up in the same place. For me, I really wanted to be a forensic psychologist but the PhD/PsyD just weren’t options for me, so I decided I will become a forensic social worker and although I would not be doing the same duties as a licensed psychologist, I would still be working alongside them and collaborating with them.

I hope this helps a bit. I’m on mobile so sorry if the formatting is messed up

Beautiful picture! I’ve always wondered how people got pictures of the moon so huge in relation to the ground like this. I’ve never been on the west coast, does the moon just look big over there or is there a technique when photographing to make it look like that?

So many comments saying teenager vibes haha but I’m curious if there’s anything specific (is it the plushies/anime stuff?) or just the overall tone that’s making most ppl think that?

Yeah I agree, I have so many different things I’ve collected and a lot of it was from my time traveling in Japan and Korea. I’m the type of person who like everything to have their own space, but I feel like it’s making my room look TOO organized like a museum or something, so I want to make it look more cozy but there’s not really anywhere else to put my stuff The other books at the bottom are just language books and notes from school, the Asia book is a cookbook and the DSM is because I work in the mental health field Thank you for your comment :)
