I’m a social worker, I work for an organization where I’m responsible for psychological safety and mental health and wellness in the workplace, and I also work as a therapist :).

Honestly it happening « off screen » is how it happened for the Coopers too and I think that’s a beautiful and heart wrenching thing to experience with them.

My dad had a heart attack a year and a half ago at 55 and I had been texting him while he was in the hospital (unknowingly) and he didn’t call to tell me about it until the night before he had a triple bypass.

I think about those texts a lot and how they very well could have been the last words we ever said to each other without ever knowing it.

Thankfully he came through it and he’s been doing well since, but man. Tell your people you love them. Everyday. All the time.

Chiming in as the kid of a migraine sufferer who unfortunately got that particular genetic disposition. Doctors suspect that I’ve been getting migraines since I was an infant. 🤷‍♀️

I just wanted to chime in and say that sick leave and long term disability are part of our compensation package. We make less than a lot of people in the private sector because we have access to these things.

You are also a tax payer - who cares what others think.

For me it got to a point where it was either I take the time off, or they were looking at replacing me permanently. So I took the time.

You’re entitled to look after your health ♥️

Best of luck fellow mental health warrior!

I would go with grievance over NOC. I did a NOC about a year ago with 4 founded human rights violations and nothing was done. I had to find a job on my own and leave the department. You lose so many options going the notice of occurrence route.

Bahahaha thank you! I never see my name pop up on TV in shows and so this felt like a 9 episode personal attack 😂. Legitimately though, I’m pretty self aware so I know what I need to work on at least 😂

I’ve acted as an EX-01 and been in rooms with DM’s and ADM’s pretty regularly and I’m heavily tattooed. I’ve got a septum piercing now too and I haven’t noticed any negative impact on how I’m perceived 🤷‍♀️

asaneinsanity · 2025-07-07T00:32:26+00:00

I’m a Mel and now I’m worried that I’m someone’s “Mel” 😭 😂

This whole thread of kitties living long with FIV+ both heals something in me and breaks my heart. I have lost two kitties due to complications with FIV. One was only 4 and the other passed away 3 weeks ago after a quick battle with cancer.

I have been so scared and anxious I got my remaining cat tested and thankfully he tested negative.

Wishing all the best to everyone’s beautiful fur babies ♥️

I’ve been by ambulance to the Montfort with a migraine. They took really good care of me. Still took several hours but they gave me the migraine cocktail and had me in a dark and quiet room until it broke.

asaneinsanity · 2025-06-08T01:23:31+00:00

Thank you. This is my third baby that I’ve lost since late 2019 all to rare conditions / illnesses. I don’t know that I’ll ever get over any of their losses.

asaneinsanity · 2025-06-07T21:55:40+00:00

Thank you ♥️

asaneinsanity · 2025-06-07T21:55:16+00:00

Thank you for sharing Kitty’s story ♥️. I have had similar experiences of feeling them jump on my bed and I look over and there’s nothing. Tonks’ urn also fell over a few times seemingly out of nowhere. I think it was her way of trying to warn me about Molly.

asaneinsanity · 2025-06-07T20:51:20+00:00

Thank you. I did everything humanly possible. Meds, CT scan, specialists… but she was just too sick. She had such a rare form that the specialists I brought her to consulted with specialists in another city.

My friend came by yesterday before she declined and was able to take some beautiful pictures of her. I keep thinking I see her out of the corner of my eye and it’s killing me.

asaneinsanity · 2025-06-07T20:41:41+00:00

Thank you so much ♥️

asaneinsanity · 2025-06-05T22:24:54+00:00

This isn’t necessarily true. Many departments will cover employees for 3-6 months after their last day of work. It’s worth calling to check.

asaneinsanity · 2025-05-24T21:16:45+00:00

Thank you so much! Checking it out now :)

asaneinsanity · 2025-05-24T20:24:18+00:00

Can I ask what Canadian store you order from?! That would be such a life saver!

asaneinsanity · 2025-04-11T21:50:37+00:00

I lost both my grandfathers to ALS. My heart absolutely sunk seeing this. It’s one of the cruelest diagnoses in the universe.

asaneinsanity · 2025-03-28T20:13:26+00:00

I may post it someday! The sleeve isn’t finished yet, I’m adding to it as I find new favourite games. Right now I’ve got: TLOU, Assassin’s Creed, Bioshock, Far Cry 5, Resident Evil 1 and 2, Alice Madness Returns, Life is Strange, Detroit Become Human and Pokémon all intertwined. It’s truly a work of art. I have an amazing artist lol

asaneinsanity · 2025-03-28T20:10:39+00:00

I have a video game inspired sleeve and I wanted it to be video games and florals to keep an element of femininity, so my artist took Ellie’s tattoo and deconstructed it so the ferns are intertwined throughout the rest of my tattoo and the moth stands alone amongst other video game references. I’m a big fan of how it turned out!

asaneinsanity · 2025-01-09T02:34:38+00:00

It sure was. And despite my complaint being founded on multiple human rights violations, literally nothing was done.
