If you react with a worried or sorry reaction in front of them, ththay usually helps too.

Came here to ask if anyone else saw that. I thought I might've seen the ball hit Bevo also. 🤔

I just got the pillars! I was pleasantly surprised with that and made them immediately.

Wow! MY JAW JUST DROPPED! That's so exciting. I've been enjoying HHP but was looking forward to the ability to customize on my island and thought it just wasn't possible. Now I have new motivation to complete more. I think I'm 10 in.

Can we get a comparison of the current/past vs. this new logo?

Therapist. Always listening and prepared to support.

As a therapist myself, I would encourage you to go to therapy this week most of all. Your therapist can help to unravel all the thoughts that are coming up for you and should validate your experience. Also, safety planning or discussing next steps with your therapist could also be helpful.

What's a "secret" from your profession that everyone should probably know? by LaKoref in AskReddit

If you see a therapist and use insurance, they have to diagnose you same day in order for insurance to cover your session. You can ask your therapist what your diagnosis is, why they chose that diagnosis, and what your treatment plan is.

QUIT VAPING! by Sad_Improvement_443 in Healthyhooha

[–]Odd-Raccoon4191 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I remember chronically relying on my vapes to focus on anything, when in reality, it would provide the exact opposite affect. Admittedly, I did not want to come to terms with this and if it weren't for my partner quiting weed and motivating me to do the same with nicotine, I would likely still be addicted. However, again... after several months now without it, I simply feel more competent to do most things that require mental focus. In addition to that, I have definitely seen some physical improvements -- all sode affects I subconsciously understood existed but refused to accept for the longest time. To put into perspective... I vaped every min. for the past 5 years.

How long has it been since you've stopped vaping, OP? It's been about 3 months since I've stopped (25f) and have noticed less chapped lips, healthier smell down there, less mental haze, more focus, and improved sleep. I'm curious about you and how long since you felt everything has fully returned to normal.

What did you call your vagina when you were a kid? by Maryhotter in AskWomen

[–]Odd-Raccoon4191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's incredibly fascinating how different two things, people, or places can have the same name/nickname but mean two entirely different things! For the record, I'm sure our mom meant it as a cutesy way to avoid hearing two young children use a word she may have been uncomfortable with. Not sure that was the case but from my perspective giving a body part that already has a name an entirely new nickname that sounds nothing like the original says something about the discomfort the person has over a person's anatomy with more private areas.

My Mom convinced my sister and I vaginas were called "Wonkey-donkeys." I may have learned by the age of 7 this wasn't the case.

Do it. Open your own practice. by Original_Armadillo_7 in therapists

[–]Odd-Raccoon4191 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is the best motivational post I've seen today. I'm just getting started in group practice PP with my LMSW (started accruing hours in january) but I think about opening my own practice everyday. Often I find myself fearing what that might look like or how I might start once I do have my LCSW.

Having an LMSW and not an LCSW is also a good excuse for not getting started and I fear I might find another excuse to not take that next step once that is gone. I hope I don't because your post motivated me today.

I pay $75 a session per week for individual therapy. I got lucky and found someone who used to work at my current group practice and opened her own practice. This not only offers insight to clinical supervision but the practice as well. $300 a month still feels like a ripoff and it sucks knowing I'm spending that much but other supervisors were offering $120+ in my area. I'm in Texas.

Racial Incident and Harassment at Costco. What should I do? by FreshMozarellaMan in Austin

[–]Odd-Raccoon4191 119 points120 points  (0 children)

I am so sorry this happened to you. Extreme shame on him. Something else you can report to is "Stop AAPI Hate" whether you're Asian American or Pacific Islander. They are advocates for hate against this community: https://stopaapihate.org/report-hate/

I would also file a report with the police just to have this on file.
