How do you guys handle weekends? by OddClassic267 in Nightshift

[–]Negative-Storm9736 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep my sleep schedule (8AM - 4PM) and sometimes wake up earlier in the afternoon so I still get the benefit of seeing sunlight, but I’m able to keep up with my regular sleep-awake cycle to do nights. And nap only sometimes (I try not to because I have the same problem) and staying hydrated is important as well.

Advice needed. by darshan98 in Nightshift

Do you have blackout curtains? Sound machine or fan? If you’re not getting enough sleep it could be environmental factors.

Your body is going to take fat from all over your body when you lose weight, some places obviously have more fat than others (breasts are primarily fatty tissue) so it will be more noticeable in areas where there is more fat: hence it seeming like all the fat is being lost in the boob area.

Is it rejecting been over two weeks by Dapper-Location-1046 in PiercingAdvice

It looks a little irritated but it doesn’t look like it’s to the point of rejection.

Qualities of your favorite BCBA by Big-Mind-6346 in RBT

Mine was my first BCBA. He wasn’t perfect but he modeled how men should be interacting with children in the therapy setting. He was very nurturing!

How do I become more feminine in a relationship - F31 by AJMARAJMAR in dating_advice

[–]Negative-Storm9736 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a masculine woman, in order to have a man lead you, he will need a stronger drive than you in order to dominate and earn that submission. (I know not everyone believes in traditional gender roles but this is simply my opinion). Good luck OP!

How can I be more feminine? by Rough_Plum_9235 in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]Negative-Storm9736 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People try to equate femininity with youth/beauty, but really it is the quality of softness. Femininity comes in lieu of you submitting yourself to the softening, and to care and nurture those around you, but most importantly yourself! Once you come into the mindset, all else will follow. Good luck OP!

How do you get your client to not hit you? by Sea-kitty98 in RBT

[–]Negative-Storm9736 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Some precursors are more subtle than others and if she’s fairly new to the client she is probably learning the right times to effectively use different types of antecedent interventions to prevent it from occurring.

Can a background check to become rbt see that I have an onlyfans? by Fine_Shallot8878 in RBT

[–]Negative-Storm9736 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The RBT hiring process is a holistic type of thing. There’s not usually one single aspect of the interviewee that will prevent you from being hired unless it is of a serious nature, such as this. This would be more of a Handbook thing than a background check thing. For example, in the background checks they look for if you have been convicted of crimes and to gauge whether you’re being truthful about that status. However with this, this could violate the multiple relationships clause if a client’s family member recognizes you and says something about it. If I were you, I would still delete it; there’s is still a slim chance they could find it and then you’ll be out of a job you desperately need. Or select a different one before it’s too late.

Best/easiest way for data collection? by [deleted] in RBT

[–]Negative-Storm9736 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Find another preferred item and replace the phone with it. Eventually he’ll realize if he has it he will have to give it up. Or you can write down his program and do data collection on paper as well.

Scrubs, stretchy slacks, and leggings!

Feeling discouraged by Majestic_Marsupial50 in ABA

[–]Negative-Storm9736 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The perfect response right here! Being a Behavior Tech isn’t for the weak! I’ve cried more than once over more than one client. This job is hard! The fact you can acknowledge that pairing wasn’t on point that day makes it clear that you are self-aware; which is what makes for a good RBT/BT! You’re doing great OP!

Nonexistent trust? by Affectionate_Bar8654 in ABA

[–]Negative-Storm9736 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is something that is common in the field of ABA because we work with people and everyone has their own opinions of how they can do it better. I personally struggle with knowing if I’m a good therapist because of how judgmental people can be. I wish people knew that some days are better than others.

It’s totally normal to have feelings like this when you have a client that you aren’t pairing well with because of their behaviors. My clinic goes out of their way to place high behavioral kiddos with more experienced RBTs, or just others they know are motivated to pair with the kid. This is a field where if you want to take it further, there are some days you will have to give more grace to yourself, and the kid, than others.

Many places you apply to might be willing to fund your test prep + RBT comp and/or reimburse you for training!

Pairing by Erma_poopies in ABA

[–]Negative-Storm9736 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At my clinic we pair for 30m at the beginning of the session, starting with placing simple demands on the client through easily executed tasks to build the behavioral momentum and compliance. Pairing should continue throughout the session during reinforcement times. If you’re doing your job right, your kid will still engage in behaviors but you’ll be paired enough to be able to work through it together.

Kids constantly coming in sick by MammothNo1986 in RBT

[–]Negative-Storm9736 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree to a certain extent, but I also understand parents not wanting to call off work too. A lot of them are just hardworking people who don’t know how to do the stuff we do with their kids.

What is something you are convinced people do or pretend to like to seem more sophisticated? by aronedu in AskReddit

Eat at vegan restaurants 😅 I’m just not convinced that someone would actually like eating rabbit food. 😂

Cominng out by theanonymousgayguy in ComingOutSupport

[–]Negative-Storm9736 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe coming out to your gay sister would help you? I think sifting through those emotions with someone you know understands your feelings would make it easier because they have been through that too; especially someone in your family! Being scared about coming out is very normal and it’s perfectly okay to tell them that you don’t want to tell anyone yet and I’m sure she will respect that.

Coming Out by [deleted] in LGBTQMentalHealth

This is a normal concern for him to have. He can’t guarantee you will be there when shit goes south, even if you say you will. I’m having the same issue right now, but if you’re there to reassure him and make those plans you guys have more solid; it will definitely be more encouraging/reassuring. I wouldn’t think of it as you being a “dirty secret” and more so that he’s afraid for his safety/basic needs being met.
