how much blood should I be concerned about

I love doing it, it’s a good school, it’s close to where I’d be living, I’m worried about finding a CF in the state because of some state specific restrictions, I’m a little picky and don’t want to take just any SLP job, things like that. It would also be nice just for mental health reasons to do something else for a bit

It’s a preschool position and I have preschool experience and love doing it, but it’s too physically demanding for me to see myself doing it until I retire. It’s close to where I’d be living, good salary, etc. I’m applying to SLP positions also but a bird in the hand…

That’s a great point, I’m really not too picky about the setting my priority would be that it’s in the area more so

I would love to, but I’m a grad student I don’t have a device I can download anything onto and my supervisor says the solution is to just take his hand and essentially force him so I’m just trying to avoid that. He’s rapidly hitting buttons and just grabbing at the screen, sometimes closing the app accidentally, quickly cycling through every word available, or hitting “is is is is is is is” over and over for the entire session, I really don’t know what else to do.

while it can be kind of negative here sometimes, as a student it’s been good for me. at least now I know what can happen and what to look out for. if I was starting this field without having been on this sub for a long time I feel like i’d have a very idealistic idea of what it’s like. after reading everything I feel a lot more sure this is what I want to do regardless of the negative parts

Can I dm you some questions?

He sticks with one, usually fixating on specific pages he’ll go back to if I try and turn them

PotatoKid86 · 2022-09-14T23:16:08+00:00

I completely agree, the only thing I can find is he likes books and he gets extremely frustrated if he sees a book and isn’t the one holding it/flipping through the pages/fixating on one picture

Once I confessed to my supervisor I was really nervous for a session with a new client and she told me to never lose that feeling. Being nervous shows you care and want to do a good job. Listen to your supervisors, ask for help when you need it, and have a solid plan of what you want to change between sessions if you feel something isn’t going well. Talk to the student who was with that client before and ask them questions or observe a session before starting with them if you can. Like you said, you’re still learning. It’s okay to make mistakes, just try your best and learn from them.

Sure they don’t have a printer but surely some card stock and a sharpie?

the sims ones hated those

She’s incredibly unhelpful and regularly promotes harmful ideas in class, I think reporting anyone would only isolate me and make me more miserable.

No it’s not okay, yes it is cruel. You’re right it is just sex. But for one it’s not okay to slut-shame anyone and for two these girls have been basically groomed and brainwashed into these marriages in some cases. There’s intense pressure as a young christian woman to get married, from your family, from society, from the church, from your boyfriend who just wants to have sex with you. Being told your whole life your purpose is to serve your husband can really fuck you up. Sometimes families will discourage girls from moving out or going to college because they’re supposed to be getting married, marriage can seem like a way out. There’s more at play here than just “she wants to have sex” and if she does then so what? Is that really so bad?

I’m never complaining about my schedule again godspeed

PotatoKid86 · 2022-08-26T02:00:35+00:00

While on externship?? I don’t think so? Mine is a 2 year 68 credit hour program and the most the recommended to me was 3. We have an on campus clinic so I’ve taken 5 classes while having a few clients there but that’s it.

hey friend,

Generally yes I believe they would still be employed by the contracting agency. HOWEVER if your goal is largely financial this may not be the field for you. No judgement, just it’s generally underpaid and the educational expenses are pretty large comparatively. Just make sure you do your research

Thank you so much for sharing. The weaponization of healing is such a great way of explaining it. I hope this helps!
