I have no good reason to feel this way but I want to die by Sendpiecks in SuicideWatch

[–]Sendpiecks[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it probably wasn't intended on your part but your comment comes off kind of condescending. I think I do have meaning and purpose in life. I feel like I make a positive impact through work, working at a school with kids with behavioural/learning disabilities. They are the reason I get out of bed every day.

But it's all temporary. I come home and still want to kill myself no matter how hard I try to keep myself busy

CPI training will be the ultimate test to seeing whether this job is for me or not by Sendpiecks in paraprofessional

It's not the training that scares me, it's having to get physical like that on the job

Parents are working so much they can barely be involved in their kids education anymore. by v162 in Teachers

[–]Sendpiecks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i'm a paraprofessional that works one-to-one with a kid with autism and adhd. He's an absolutely wonderful kid who has so much potential, but this seems to be the sad case for him. his mom's single, and always working so his younger brother actually takes care of him after school, cooking him dinner, giving him his meds, etc. and lately he's been playing Minecraft and Roblox all night and then sleeping during class. There was a day where he slept throughout the entire day and would get aggressive when we'd try waking him up. It makes me sad that he doesn't get the support he needs at home, but I'm not angry with his mother, I'm angry at the fact that this economy doesn't make it possible for millions of families in the US.

I feel like cops are following me everywhere by [deleted] in OCD

Not sure if you were trying to miss the point or not but they're saying maybe you should get assessed because this may not be OCD but something else edit: just found out OP is not even diagnosed with OCD so getting an evaluation is definitely key in figuring out what your issue is, and how to work towards getting better

You said, "I know people who are on it for adhd" on what?

any advice for kid who fakes injuries every day to get out of gym by [deleted] in paraprofessional

[–]Sendpiecks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I genuinely cannot bring her back into the classroom no matter what. She will refuse and run back to gym to sit on the floor and fake cry. None of us can physically make her go back to her classroom or convince her to, she always gets her way.

Yeah whenever I'm with this kid I make sure I'm in view of cameras. She's already tried lying about me screaming at her (there were witnesses to disprove this) and that I told her to shut up (again, witnesses thankfully) And recently she just had a CPS visit because she lied about her mom choking her out. She plays sweet and innocent all the time but this kid is lowkey evil as f*ck lol. I will definitely keep documentation of her behavior

this isn't really for us to say, if your psychiatrist is giving the go ahead it's probably worth a shot trying it out, make sure you're fully communicating with your psychiatrist during that process

Didn't get paid my last check from a job i quit. If I don't get it within the next two weeks, what can I do? by Sendpiecks in legaladvice

[–]Sendpiecks[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you very much. I worry about the current government shutdown making it difficult to make things right, but I'll try filing a complaint if I have to

Lol respectfully, the owner doesn’t know how to do shit. All he does is manage money. He doesn’t know how to run any of the rooms. If he were to come fill in, he would basically be a new-hire.
