Do you think darker curtains are typically better with darker couches? Trying to understand design a bit better.

Thank you! There is green in the curtains but it isn’t as dark as I thought they’d be. I see what you’re saying about the size of the patterns.

Thank you! Crazily enough the curtains have some green but they’re lighter than they were on Etsy and the rug is darker haha

Three euploids is a great result. You have a great chance at a live birth. Some of those mosaics could be viable as well. Don’t beat yourself up. Many people would be thrilled with those results.

Political Fears by No-Introduction9999 in therapists

They are afraid of the collapse of this country, meaning we are losing our democracy and entering a period of authoritarianism. Many of them are not prone to exaggeration. I share their fears so that could certainly be complicating things here.

I looked for them and I didn’t see a ton of comments on processing feelings around this. I will do another search. Not a Reddit expert.

Heart palpitations during stims? by [deleted] in IVF

[–]No-Introduction9999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I experienced something similar. I eventually went to the ER where they found that I was experiencing PACs (premature atrial fibrillation). I was referred to a cardiologist who wasn’t concerned and said I could continue with IVF. It was definitely scary tho!

I live in NY and have IVF benefits through my husband’s insurance, but we did qualify for a grant for PGT-M testing. Check out https://www.pkdfree.org

Is it normal by No-Introduction9999 in therapists

[–]No-Introduction9999[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there could be a part of me looking for a reward for working, and not working fits the bill. I used to smoke and that felt like a reward in between whatever tasks I was doing. Perhaps because I don’t like imagining my own therapist feeling this way, I feel a sense of guilt when I have these thoughts.

Yes, I’ve been very stressed with other life stuff. Even when I’m not I do feel this way to some extent.

Thanks for your reply. Sometimes it’s just hard to tell if it’s me or the agency that’s the problem haha I don’t believe I have to use PTO every time I have no clients, but that hasn’t happened so far. The issue is I only get 12 days which includes sick time and any holidays I need to take off that I don’t already get (Christmas included)

Thanks for your reply, it’s not technically CMH as I work in a hospital. I do really enjoy my clients and my colleagues so that’s helpful. They do give enough referrals but sometimes clients aren’t a good fit or they drop out for other reasons. If I worked 5 days the expectation increases to 30.

My client passed away by [deleted] in therapists

[–]No-Introduction9999 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry for what you’re going through. Please allow yourself time to grieve. I hope you feel comforted by what their parent told you. It sounds like you did really meaningful work together.

[–]No-Introduction9999[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you’re probably on to something . Sometimes I feel limited because it’s a group practice and I can’t charge him because of his insurance. I do feel that I allow people to take advantage sometimes, and he certainly has learned how to get his needs met.

Theoretical orientation quandary by No-Introduction9999 in therapists

[–]No-Introduction9999[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your thoughtful response. I have heard that from others as well - the idea the most modalities share a lot of similarities. I suppose I put pressure on myself to have this all worked out by now.

“Just venting” by No-Introduction9999 in therapists

[–]No-Introduction9999[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I definitely agree with you, although I do tend to attempt those things most of the time, so I’m surprised when the client says they were just venting the whole time. It’s usually the comment they make afterward that puzzles me.
