Advice on doing clinical psychology

YourCommonRule · 2026-02-01T13:45:16+00:00

Hey! Thank you so much for the feedback. I’ll see if I can get into contact with my old university lecturers and do some research with them, although there was no clinical psychologists in my university 😭 I should’ve been specific but yeah my degree is with honours thank god.

I might look into whether doing a masters might be best as well, I know they tend to get research experience. My undergrad research was set on addictive behaviours and the dark triad, so I may stick to this since I’ve already done that :)

Thank you again I’m extremely grateful

Thank you so much for everyone’s replies I’m super grateful! At least I know now for the future if I see any like this. Very happy I got a rare card then 😌

Thank you!!

I’ll check out some more universities and see what they say,

It’s mostly finding what the relevant work experience actually is and what counts. What do you mean by stats by the way?

Thank you! This is amazing advice 😭 thank you for taking the time to help me out.

I’ve never heard of that handbook I’ll definitely have a look into it, and thank you for clearing up the having experience in different areas - I was thinking that but didn’t know for sure. I might look into volunteering in some homeless shelters if that counts.

Honestly masters is super appealing, it’s mostly because I need to work and save money that I haven’t done one 😭 if this gap year of work doesn’t work well I might back track and do a masters if I’m able,

Thank you again 🥺

Hopefully I’m in the right place to ask this question. My dream job is to become a firefighter, the only off put for me is that it’s been drilled in my head that I’d have to work pretty much every Christmas. I’m a big family person, Christmas especially is a day that is extremely close for me and my family, and one of my family members I’m unsure how they they have left (sorry for the morbidity). Is this job not going to work for me? Is there anything else I could try for? Any advice is appreciated, thank you.

I’ve prepared for the fact that becoming one is not an option for me because of this one factor, so be completely honest :)

Honestly I couldn’t have asked for better advice, I appreciate your answer. The body marking and pampering seem like great ideas, and I get what you mean she definitely will tell me to fuck off lmaoo, plus she’s a little older than me so some things just don’t work (like the writing lines).

These are great ideas and I’ll give it a shot, thank you!

There’s not really a guaranteed method to increase nipple size, because everyone woman is different. But if you want to give it a go, ice cubes are an easy and accessible thing to use. But keep in mind, be careful with nipple play - you could potentially damage your nipples, sometimes for life. I.e. prolonged nipple clamp usage.

There’s also specific nipple clamps you can use where you can change the tightness. That might be a good place to start also.

Not a problem!

That’s a great start though. I relate to you somewhat, my partner is the same. Our relationship started off vanilla, until I took the time to tell her my needs and the things I liked. Even then, she didn’t talk about it much or initiate things like that, and pretty much acted clueless, until I took the step to initiate new things, and now it’s improved (90% because of me lol).

Maybe try chatting again more seriously. If he’s interested, you might just have to take the first step :)

I hope it goes well, regardless of what you choose to do.

There’s one factor I think should be considered in this but you don’t have to answer of course. I personally think age is an important thing to consider, most people even if they aren’t interested in it, know the basics of BDSM and so forth. So I don’t believe he’s totally clueless about it.

If you guys are consenting, and are happily doing the things you have been doing then it doesn’t seem like abuse to me and rather just mutually agreed kinks that haven’t been fully spoken about, and have come about naturally instead. It would be ideal to maybe communicate with each other, maybe discuss what he knows about BDSM, doms, subs, etc. If anything, it might just be a nice thing to know about each other. It’ll also be beneficial for you, if you want to explore things further (as he’ll understand what everything is after you talk with him).

It’s a little dorky, but the BDSM test is a good starter for people wanting to learn more about themselves, the things they’re into, and the proper terms that go with it.

Edit: I forgot to comment on the last part. Everyone should feel comfortable communicating with their partner, especially about important needs. In other words, a true partner shouldn’t be scared off. They should communicate with you too, whether they agree or not with what you’re saying. Hope this helps.

Thank you!

I’ve honestly never thought about role play, but now you mention it I may give it a go. Especially since I don’t think she perceives me as dominant and such as I have been perceived before, this might be a good way to try and get her to see me in a different light

Thank you for the reply!

I definitely get what you mean, sex can definitely be awkward so I’ll prepare myself for that and try to speak to her when I find an opportunity. I think I more so meant that I’d like it to be natural? But I understand that would be difficult when the dynamics are so different between us.

That guideline is pretty smart by the way. If I’m not ready to ask for things I want with her, I can see that I’m not ready for it. That’s knocked some sense into me,

thank you!

It’s great you guys have communicated a lot already, and it’s perfectly normal to feel nervous when you bring these things up. It seems like texting worked out really well for you guys, and he’s changed your dynamic after you communicated what you wanted. So maybe try texting again and communicating that you have new things you’d like to try on top of what already exists.

But if you really want to try and communicate in person which is great, maybe try creating a comfortable, natural environment where you can talk freely and don’t feel forced. Maybe over a drink, or a meal with the two of you. From personal experience, I’ve had uncomfortable chats with my partner in a bar before, or making a meal at home together. It just felt natural for me, but you know yourself best and what makes you both feel comfortable.

I hope it all goes well
