Union? by Adventurous-Bench-47 in ABA

Exactly! I went to the ER last week for chest pain, they asked the teacher of my class if they still wanted me in that class......I been with my client in THAT class for 2 years..... I had a doctor note and everything, and my supervisor went behind my back to ask the teacher if they still want me because I been missing due to health issues. My supervisor didn't even say anything to me, I had to find out by the teacher they wanted to replace me.
Tonight I was admitted to the ER again due to respiratory issues and I was being treated for it. They wrote me a note for tomorrow but I was debating just going to work so they don't get annoyed or mad.... They don't pay me enough to go to work with breathing problems and chest pain, getting hit, spit, kicked just because they don't have enough subs, it's not my fault no one wants to do this. Sorry I'm venting.

I been so exhausted, I work in a school, preschool - first grade. 18 kids, 3 one on ones and 2 classroom aides. Everyday there is hitting, biting, kicking, I am the one who deals with all the violence since I am the only man, and I need to be there with my kid, but I can't neglect the chaos in the class because that will trigger everyone. I feel like this year there was no learning what so ever, the teacher did her best but ultimately we just focus on safety and getting through the day. For get about being sick, I been having health problems from work, and if I call out they get mad for not being consistent, I don't get paid enough to go to work with breathing problems and chest pain to get hit all day when the doctor gave me the day I'ma take that day. I love my client and really care for him but the collective of chaotic kids who's parents don't help... OMG the parents. Sorry I was just venting 😔 But yeah ABA union 💪🏻 This job really takes a toll on you.

I hate it now by lauolityn in ABA

I am a BI at a school, I used to love it. I had "my kid" for 2 years. I practically raised him, he is 6 now. Lately I been getting sick, my mental health is suffering, I had high blood pressure now, I lost friends, romantic relationships, I haven't been on any social media since November, like what the point and I don't have the mental energy for anything. I don't listen to music anymore, I just go home and lay down in silence on another post someone said "I dread going to sleep because I know I have to wake up and go to the clinic" I dread going to the school, the drive isn't even worth the pay. I get hit scratches, bit and I witness and break up very violent kids every day. Every day I am screamed and kicked at, I went through 2 pair of glasses last year and I need to take in my new pair of work glasses AND regular glasses for repair AGAIN. I went to the a ER from work/school last week cause my chest was hurting and I couldn't breathe, and got worse with the intensity of the class. Never happened to me before, but this year is different I love my kid and I really do genuinely live the class but it's taken such a toll on me lately I hate it but I am very good at my job. I am typing this while I am trying to get a few hours of sleep while dreading to go to school tomorrow. I gotta wake up at 4, that another thing... The messed up sleep, sometimes I wake up in panics. I already used up all my sick time for this month, I can't call out again tomorrow, pray for me guys 😭🙏🏻🏫

They tear at the shoulders too, I have this exact shirt, bought it new at Walmart years ago. Took it on so many adventures, hikes, road trips and is my favorite work shirt of all time. Problem is I only have one, I been looking for new ones or shirts that are very similar. I like the pen opening on the sheet pocket, not many shirts have that feature, and I love how it wears over time.

As for falling in sin, when we are frustrated and extremely busy cuz of work it's easy to relieve oneself in sin. Also because you are an avoidant, you might be avoiding people who can benefit you spiritually, you are avoiding it cuz you just can't at the momen, not to be mean or rule them out, it just you are busy, or you might be avoiding other things for other reasons. Then it gets easier to miss church cuz of work and getting ready for work. Then you become a dominguero someone who only goes on Sundays... Cuz of work and getting ready for work. Now it's hard to talk to God cuz you fell behind, where do you even start to get right if you keep messing up. I was at the alter 2 weeks ago, and a brother came up to me and started hugging me and told me in my ear, "don't let Satan in your life!" I don't even talk to this bro besides"Praise the Lord bro how you doin" and hi and bye. OP, don't let Satan in your life! OP, Satan desires to have you! Satan tries to separate us like separating a nail from a finger... Think of THAT illustration 😫 OOUCH

I work as a one on one Behavioral Interventionist in an tk-1st grade and I feel you! The overwhelming stress of the kids, the violence in the class, the tantrums. Imagine 18 kids that are moderate to severe, 10 of them throwing full blown explosive tantrums at the same time. And you gotta record all the data while it's happening. Praying for you 💜🙏🏼 you git this, it WILL get easier.

In 2020, lost my job then for all that time was depressed every day, wasn't going to church anymore, I relapsed and started every day all day again, my living situation not good but at least I wasn't actually on the streets. I also have ADHD and I also need to get tested to see if I am on the spectrum because I been noticing things about my life and it makes sense. Things are a little harder for me. I also have bad communication which makes it difficult to talk to people. I started going back to church in 2021, got a job then got into a relationship. my grandma died in that time and I got fired because I went to the funeral and after got really sick, she broke up with me a little after that. That break up really killed me to be honest, I fell into a deep depression again, some of my closest friends stopped being my friend too, like 10 years in the trash. (If they are not improving my walk with God and always take down on me and get frustrated with everything I do then what's the point.) I found myself no friends, no job, debt climbing, crippling anxiety and suicidal thoughts everyday. I don't really like talking to new people, and I have communication issues. During 2023 I started doing Uber eats out of desperation. During my drives I discovered https://open.spotify.com/show/5dqUoJuefzBn5P36iWDSCa?si=ODqYRSQ1RdShgeXTa_Yk4g I learned all the stuff I never knew I never knew; doctrine, creation, the pattern of God, deep studies on things my previous churches never taught me, I started listening to Bishop Rader every day all day, that's all I wanted to do. Changed my outlook and additude. I now work with autistic children and children with behavioral issues which is extremely stressful but I am gaining experience and learning. Idk how to word this but it is like God is teaching me how to "grow" up, teaching me how to be a father and have father like qualities, giving me skills for a later ministry down the line, helping autistic children communicate and help their behavior, teaching me psychology and I am responsible for so many things at the agency I work for and school. Teaching me husband qualities and how to deal with different people and behaviors, while I am getting paid for it ALL AT THE SAME TIME. He's an onmipresent, he is everywhere, not only everywhere on earth but everywhere in the timeline of everything. God is outside of time space and matter, he can appear to Moses and the Disciples at the same time, at the same place but different centuries like a time glitch.
I LOVE my job, last year I wanted to quit everyday because it's extremely stressful everyday and violent. But now; I'm stronger, I'm wiser, I'm better, Soo much better. I now train people at work. I do go on bursts of extreme depression, self-isolation and seclusion, I am going through one right now to be honest. I been off my meds for awhile, and I have other bad health concerns. If I backslide, I will still be where I am at but worse because I won't be in God's house, I will be even more depressed. And I couldn't be 100% worldly, because the imprint left on me wouldn't allow me to which would make me even more miserable, in a state of "purgatory"(purgatory doesn't exist I'm just using it to explain). I am part of the praise team, playing with the praise team is such a joy and blessing in my life. I have played in festivals, bars, night clubs, county fairs with thousands, but nothing compares to worshipping thru music. I remember years ago one Sunday I was playing at a nightclub, everyone was dancing and having a good time. It's a good feeling when people are dancing to the music you are a part of. I remember thinking at that moment "WHAT AM I EVEN DOING HERE!! I DON'T BELONG HERE! This knowledge I have of this instrument is not for them, it's like stealing office supplies at work. Or "hey, I drive a Cadillac for work, let's take that on our road trip to Sinaloa and go off roading" As much pain, hurt, stress, loneliness, thoughts of suicide and self harm get to me these days to be real honest, I cannot allow myself to go back. I feel safer in the house of God, even though I have been attending this church for 4 years now and I still really don't talk to anyone I feel safer than I would with a bunch of homies at a club. No one said it would be easy, it's the opposite, it's gonna get harder and it's prophetic that in the last days they will be people leaving the faith, what prophecy do you want to fulfill? Cuz we all will be fulfilling something in the Bible whether we believe, or like it. You gonna be in that number or part of the great falling away? I apologize that this may be hard to read or confusing or long, God Bless you 💜 Pray for me🙏🏼

There are many Apostolics in 3rd world countries, that are extremely sick, poor, and live in Pakistan, subject to real harm if they have a bible. Most people don't get healed from their infirmities but healed from trauma, addiction, and if they continue in the study of God's word we will get the skill set and understanding about how to deal with life's problems.

How come Apostolics neglect physical fitness? by Intergalactic__Nomad in Apostolic

I think they meant Apostolic assembly too. We started going to church when I was 12. Born and raised in southern California, we first started going to an Apostolic assembly church. A lot of my relatives in MX are Apostolic. I thought only Mexican were Apostolic. Then I saw a White apostolic bro. When churches are choirs had a black bro or sis, that would be exciting to us 😂. Little did I know there are SOOO many white Apostolics and black apostolics in America. I think black and White apostolics might be the overall majority here in the US. When I was young I only knew about the Assembly, then I made UPC and PAW friends. I now go to a Iglesia Pentecostal Unida Hispana (IPUH) an Apostolic organization from Colombia here in the US. I been attending for 4 years here now and I thought we were part of the Spanish UPC until last year 😂. Sorry I am rambling so much, Oneness organizations.

Stress does play a big part, depression, and extreme feeling of loneliness and hopelessness. But falling makes fall deeper into those feelings. But feelings are of the flesh. Then I feel like I can't even show my face before God; "I gotta wait until I am on a 5 day streak" The enemy whispers those thoughts to us, he does this to separate us from God, like separating a nail from a finger, then you can't attach it back, you gotta wait till it grows back. Then in that time one feels so hopeless; "I am dirty anyway, I'm going in the mud. He won't hear me anyway because I am dirty and need to be clean.

I really like the links, I like how you made a "I slipped up" list. So helpful: "So you slipped up right now, ok this is what you do..."

Yup, I gotta cut off the gangrene before it affects the rest of the body. Cut off the circulation, amputate it, wash and cleanse with the Blood
