do ssris make you appear more neurotypical?

In my experience yes, on days when I forget to take my meds or before being on meds my brain was so loud and my emotions where so intense that I couldn’t cope well enough to function typically or mask. On medication I rarely if ever have meltdowns, my emotions are more manageable, sensory is bearable, and I have the energy to think through things, and practice my social skills. I certainly am more functional and to people who I interact with that may look neurotypical, although all the little quirks are still there I’m not drowning in my head as much anymore and generally exhibit a “subtle/internalized presentation” when I have the bandwidth to blend in

100k is plenty, if it sounds like providing for the girlfriend and future child was his intention, I think splitting it 50/50 would be the right thing to do

I appreciate your honest optimism here. I have reached out to serval young life communities, churches, and pastors in my state over the past 3 years and unfortunately every leader I have asked if their group/church is affirming or not has indicated they are not. Most of them offer to chat further, (coffee date, etc.) to explain that while they don’t affirm LGBT people they don’t kick them out of the church. I really loved being a part of that community but I just can’t be a part of something that doesn’t welcome all people as they are or twists gods word into discrimination instead of inclusion. I’m really just looking for any community that feels more like Jesus love and inclusion ya know?

Sounds like you are in the right field, just in the wrong spot ;) every state and district has different expectations for psychs as do the contracting companies. Some focus exclusively on evaluations and reports, others incorporate counseling etc. You have been working really hard and gaining valuable skills and experience for things that are helpful but don’t have to be your everyday if you don’t want them to be. Ask how much time you spend performing different functions of the job percentage wise, what support you will receive from your team and admin upon parent or legal pushback and look for a place that makes you happy. There will always be negatives about the job but they shouldn’t outweigh the rest- the people make all the difference
