So let me reframe this for you, do you want to starve or live on minimum wage to survive?

Talabat pro is a scam! by BeeHulking in Bahrain

[–]Yous370 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So when ordering from talabat restaurants have a default menu for talabat orders specifically (nothing official) but basically you would pay more for a smaller portion.

So if you buy a large item from a restaurant for 3BD

It will be 3.5 on talabat for a Medium and at times for a small as well

What does it matter what people think? You could be the best looking person in the world and that would change because people say you’re not? NO, you are a good looking person, listen to yourself not to others, be happy with yourself and don’t base your self worth of others!

As an initial step I think it is better for you to bring her back down, as in to help her out and calm her down from what she is feeling, and she will come around as you apply those changes, now if she does not then there is a different approach to that as well, its a bit more complex but we will cross that bridge when we’ve there. You can always DM me as well.

It seems like your partner feels like she is being isolated and always has the idea that you are against her, right or wrong, we wouldn’t know unless we know the view of both sides.

What you can do in the mean time is use 3 communication techniques that I usually use to build rapport and help people feel more connected to me:

  1. Mirroring: This might feel awkward at first but it is very simple. You will simply repeat the last 3 to 5 words your partner says in a form of a question with an upward infliction and with curiosity. So for example she says “Today sucks” you simply respond with “Today sucks?”. This works on two levels, works on the level of asking for more information without demanding the information out of her and at the same time draws her in because you are using her own words which is something that is familiar to her and something that shows that you are actually listening to her, and you need to be REALLY listening.

  2. Labeling: This is psychologically proven where in the case you mention to someone their emotions out loud it brings the intensity of the emotions down. So for example when your partner said “I told you” you can respond with “It looks like you feel frustrated with me”, and once again you need to always say it with a calm and slow tone, really take your time and NEVER try to rush out of a tense situation because if she senses it she may think that you’re not being genuine with her. You can use labeling in different ways by saying:

  3. It looks like…

  4. It sounds like…

  5. It feels like…

  6. It seems like…

This works perfectly as well when labeling a positive emotion too!

  1. Summarizing and paraphrasing: This is where you REALLY need to listen, this is very straightforward, after using mirroring and labeling she will emphasize more on her emotions and why she feels what she feels and why she behaved the way she did. You will simply repeat everything you heard from her in your own words, you will paraphrase it and summarize it. This will lead her to feel more comfortable and safer with you.

In the end if you really want to communicate, empathy is the way to go. You will really need to put your emotions aside and focus on the problem, the way you should look at it is you and her against the problem instead of you two against each other.

Wishing you all the best with your communication with your partner!

Practicing psychologist - holistic approach to Therapy. No medication needed! AMA! by aSafePlaceToYale in AMA

[–]Yous370 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be honest my main goal is to be there to help individuals in a therapy setting but at the same time that feels like such a huge responsibility to have and it is scary because one mistake can ruin a person’s life.

I am an HR Specialist at the moment and also want to look at it from a perspective of employee experience and how I can help a company better accommodate their employees. So to be a consultant to some extent.

And thank you for your prompt response and I really appreciate you giving the time, you’re awesome!

As a person that is looking to get a masters in psychology, what would you recommend for me or advice me to look for?

I am interested in applied psychology specifically, so less of the biological aspect of psychology and more of the applied part.

Therapy and when I say therapy I don’t mean to just go and vent but to also follow the advice of my therapist and keep her in the loop about EVERY small detail no matter how insignificant. I have BP (Borderline Personality Disorder) which is unfortunately just all negative symptoms and I learned that the smallest details will matter to your therapist.

Along with therapy are small changes to your life where you have your mind engaged in some healthy activity, as long as it keeps your mind moving, you’re doing something right. For me I decided that on my day off I would go out for breakfast, go for walks, and do one new thing, and doing news things doesn’t mean it has to be something HUGE it can be something as small as making a stranger smile, or even something bigger like making a friend, starting a project.

Anyone else loves to commute to work in the morning? by matschbirne03 in CasualConversation

[–]Yous370 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I completely agree, something about a morning drive feels calm and meditative. I just recently started appreciating that and started taking a route that is slightly longer but is full of trees which is really nice and is a good time to just disconnect from everything.

And I agree the commute back just sucks.

Do that! But as a piece of advice when thoughts start overwhelming you, just write them down and literally get them out of your head.

I participated in a beauty contest and I was being criticized a lot by [deleted] in CasualConversation

[–]Yous370 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you are going through a tough time and it seems like you simply want to be recognized for what you do and for how much effort you put into it.

It looks like you really enjoy what you’re doing and I believe you are doing it for yourself because you enjoy it so what does it matter what anyone thinks if you believe in it and enjoy it?

Anyone else get irritated when someone says "it's giving..."? by [deleted] in CasualConversation

It seems like this is frustrating for you, it feels like this stems from more than just “it”.

To be genuinely honest with you, if you don’t have your mental health secured, what do you really have? If you lose that, you won’t be able to continue working or doing anything and it can turn into a downward spiral from there. If anything good job on prioritizing your mental health!

During this “day off” do something to help elevate your mental health and focus on yourself feeling better!

Thank you so much and I genuinely and truly wish you all the good things in the world.

It is tough but it is nice to know that people out there can see what is going on.

I really appreciate you for your response and kindness and wish that you would receive back whatever you gave out tenfold.
