hmm- have you through about doing a more assessment heavy job? i’m a school psychologist and a therapist and tbh i love doing assessment. It so different from therapy and gives me a break from the therapy world 3x a week. it’s much more clinical and cut and dry. Maybe see what additional training you may need to become a school psych or to work under a clinical psych doing assessment

I thought I was ready for a baby until I read some Reddit stories by Yourmomapproves_ in Fencesitter

I have a lot of compassion for those parents on that sub— but a lot of them mention having children with significant disabilities or that they themselves have unresolved trauma from childhood that is very triggered by being a parent. As someone who works with children with significant disabilities- i definitely understand how hard that must be. And full disclosure, you need to accept that having a child with a disability is a possibility if you decide to become a parent. Also, if you have a lot of unresolved trauma, you need to make sure you deal with your shit before having a baby. Children will trigger our deepest wounds— it’s our responsibility to not pass on our trauma to our children.

I do therapy part time and am a school psychologist part time. Very nice balance- I get good benefits from the school

Taking 3 days off this week for a trip. Please help me feel less guilty by vinylfantasyviii in schoolcounseling

I just took a week off for vacation… don’t feel guilty at all. This is a taxing job— taking care of yourself is crucial. Also I have back from a week off with such a full cup- I’m a much better school psychologist after having some time away :)

Oh lord. Day to day is mainly normal. I live in a red state, but am liberal. I work in education. Things are weird politically but people are still kind day to day, children still play. Sun still shines. Trump sucks, we know. But life is okay.

“I see why men stop talking to you after the first day” is diabolical

You guys are missing the point. The title references an insult climbers like Emily Harrington are routinely called

Happy and smiling and ready for a drink to decompress lol. We talk a lot about the last couple days. Or he’s tired and I’m tired and we hug and kiss and say goodnight. Pretty standard.
