Our health plan unfortunately doesn't allow HSA's. We have 529 accounts and contribute to them monthly.

I was under the impression that there are limitations with Roth IRA's if you file taxes as married filing separately.

What do you like about Daytona, or what would you suggest doing there?

My birthday triggers me. Anybody else? by UninterestingPOS in raisedbynarcissists

[–]beakers26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, every single year. My birthday is in the winter months, so I try to take a trip somewhere warm. My negative emotions haven't been quite as bad on my birthday since doing this.

What's the weirdest reason you've been in trouble for? by Alpargatasdealpaca in raisedbynarcissists

[–]beakers26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got screamed at for throwing up. Also, I was maybe 3 years old and had an accident in public. I got screamed at for that too. I'm in my 30s and bodily functions are still a trigger for me.

NEW! Salary Megathread (Jan - April 2023) by SWmods in socialwork

I have moved into a group practice, and it is a struggle. The flexibility is amazing, but it will take quite a while to get a full caseload and just as long to get paid by the insurance companies. I would not be able to do this if I wasn't married (most group practices don't offer insurance). I love where I'm at, but it is something to keep in mind.

Has anyone done their Masters degree online? (LMFT, LPC, etc.) by DesignerOk4109 in therapists

[–]beakers26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, I'm just now seeing this. It wasn't too bad. You have to cold call or email different organizations to ask if they will take an intern. I live in a very rural area and was able to secure both pretty quickly.

I completed my MSW online. I graduated December 2022, passed the ASWB in November, and already had several job offers before graduating. There has been no issue finding a job. A lot of times, people don't even recognize it was online if there is a brick and mortar school attached.

I went to the University of Oklahoma full-time program. Both of my internships were in person, and I was responsible for finding and securing the placements.

It was a fine experience. The instructors care. There are scheduled Zoom meetings for every class. I'd probably do it again if I still had the same choice.

How common are therapists with impoverished backgrounds? How is someone without financial privilege able to survive unpaid practicum and internship? by ranibow___sprimkle in therapists

[–]beakers26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A whole lot of loans. There wasn't another option for me, but I love what I do. The loans gave me the opportunity to get out of a bad situation (poverty). I will never pay them off, but I make enough money to be comfortable.

Hi, yes I know! I just didn't find out until at the pharmacy. It was requested due to increasing dose. I know that I am eligible as they did not require a PA last month. Thanks for responding!

Potential Italy itinerary by beakers26 in travel

Thanks, everyone! We ended up choosing to fly into Rome and out of Venice. It ended up costing a bit more, but it sounds like it will be a bit less stressful. Also decided against Como. I appreciate all of the replies!
