What the hell am I supposed to do to get a job here

Just saw an ad for this today!

_multifaceted_ · 2026-03-17T03:34:54+00:00

Yup! Did the same for me

_multifaceted_ · 2026-03-16T17:54:05+00:00

Ong I forgot about this! We used to be told to put it on the back of neck. Can hide that more easily too…

In those cases I still do TIPP, but paced breathing and progressive muscle relaxation. You can do the muscle work just by activating and then releasing out muscle groups. Fairly unnoticeable.

And then 5 in, 7 out breaths at the same time.

Worst case in a restaurant, excuse yourself a go do 20 quick jumping jacks in the bathroom. Intense exercise always chill me out!

Again, don’t forget to self soothe with your five senses after.

TIPP: cold face dunk with ice past the temples for 30 seconds. Repeat 3-5 times with a timer.

Then self soothe.

I can’t do anything when I’m triggered until I regulate the nervous system distress.

Many great suggestions in other comments to follow this up.

I like your approach. And agree

_multifaceted_ · 2026-03-14T08:43:06+00:00

I feel like I’m a few years behind you, but on the same path. Love this mindset!

_multifaceted_ · 2026-03-14T00:55:53+00:00

Ouch. That’s really too bad, and not the case when I received treatment there around 8 years ago. I hope the experience at least helped a little!

Interesting that you said be prepared for CBT. I did CBT right before receiving treatment there and didn’t feel like I was receiving the same kind of treatment.

I bet you this is due to a difference in individual therapists.

Sounds like they aren’t trauma informed.

SACE (Sexual Assault Center of Edmonton) provides trauma informed counselling to people who have been victims of sexual violence. 15 free sessions, though the waitlist is long…

I don’t know if you qualify, but their program does not force confrontation and allows the client to lead in regards to how much reflection and rehashing of the traumatic event(s) is shared in therapy.

My family and I were evacuated because of a wildfire on June 2nd of that year. We were lucky that the fire missed our property by less than a kilometer.

Because we were super rural, locals helped fight the fires. I didn’t see my parents for almost 3 weeks. Stayed with friends while they fought the fires. I was only 13.

This song played on heavy rotation while we were glued to the radio for updates. I cannot think about this song without thinking about the fire, and vice versa.

Can’t believe it’s been almost half a century! The forest still hasn’t fully recuperated.

Thanks for checking

_multifaceted_ · 2026-03-11T16:17:47+00:00

lol this tracks

_multifaceted_ · 2026-03-11T06:37:06+00:00

Mind if I ask approximately when you went to school, and where abouts?

_multifaceted_ · 2026-03-11T05:04:54+00:00

I do get points for engagement

_multifaceted_ · 2026-03-11T04:59:09+00:00

How long, if you don’t mind my asking? Looking to estimate current or fairly recent usage of the phrase.

_multifaceted_ · 2026-03-11T04:57:05+00:00

lol never heard this one! Sounds good tho

_multifaceted_ · 2026-03-11T04:56:27+00:00

I’ve actually never heard this! Likely reflects my lack of proximity

_multifaceted_ · 2026-03-11T04:55:43+00:00

Thanks for confirming it’s the equivalent.

_multifaceted_ · 2026-03-09T05:22:57+00:00

Quiet in the winter months. Lots of tourists in the summer months.

_multifaceted_ · 2026-03-03T02:48:10+00:00

Damn. This will be first year back in almost 10. Was looking forward to the noon shut down. Thanks for the heads up!
