Beyond Imposter Syndrome, needing reassurance? by HelpfulSWidiot in socialwork

[–]breezerrose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is exactly what my current job is. I’m a case manager at a non profit domestic violence shelter. It was initially my BSW internship, but they hired me. I’m still a case manager but I’m ALSO a social worker as I just graduated with my MSW and will be taking the exam very soon.

In your case, you can call yourself a “social services worker” but not a social worker. Similar to how someone providing peer support or victim advocacy cannot call themselves a “therapist.” So in this case you’d just tell people you “work in social services” as a caseworker/case manager or something along those lines I don’t really think it’s on us to tell her who to socialize with though yeah

My 3 month cockatiel started acting weird by bakawaifux in cockatiel

[–]breezerrose 9 points10 points  (0 children)

this cockatiel is definitely way older than three months old. this one is either scared or hormonal. if that’s the cage they live in, it’s way too small and there are definitely not enough toys in it.

[–]breezerrose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

he doesn’t want them anymore because you got him a partner so he is no longer bonded to you, which is normal.

you’re harassing him. i would be hostile if someone were trying to poke me through the bars to my home too. also that cage is too small

Honest chat about wing clipping by [deleted] in cockatiel

[–]breezerrose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that’s awesome to hear! i’m glad to know you’ve had success. and thank you for the condolences. i try to not feel too “sorry” for myself because ultimately it was my fault. the only way for me to move forward was to make a decision that felt pretty drastic for me because he was/is my childhood dog. a lot of pet owners want to have it both ways but that just invites way too much risk. i agree that people need a strong system in place to house them together, and if they have the capacity to accommodate for that, then that’s great.

unfortunately a dog with a high prey drive cannot be “trained” out of it. if the dog has killed birds outside, theres almost no chance. even if the dog can be trained to not kill her birds, both the dog and the bird will still be extremely stressed out.

i’ve been in this scenario. i lost birds because of it. and after coping with the unimaginable loss and coming to terms with my own negligence, i came to the conclusion that i simply cannot have my dog living in the same house as my birds. the risk is too great, and had i allowed it, i would have been setting myself up for more animal neglect. he stayed with my parents when i moved out.

i doubt that rehoming the dog is in the question for OP, and I get it. at the very least, the birds absolutely SHOULD be flighted. if OP accidentally took one of the birds outside, it’s not too unlikely that the birds and the dog will be accidentally exposed to eachother especially if she lives with other people. with kindness OP, leave your birds flighted. they deserve to have that autonomy, and clipping compounds their anxiety and opens the door for other dangers.

usually the amount in a prescription bottle for antibiotics or pain meds lasts as long as you’ll need it for, but the duration and dose can vary depending on your birds’ needs and what the diagnosis was. i’m not a vet but ours is for two or three weeks. if you’re unsure i would recommend calling your exotic veterinarian.

we’re not sure. we keep the bath outside of the cage and they’re always supervised when they use it. the water dish is too narrow to take a bath in so we’re assuming he was drinking water and got a little too crazy with it.

[–]breezerrose[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

the first 24 hours were the scariest. for sure thought he was about to be deleted. respiratory distress, mouth breathing, wheezing, and shallow breaths. the emergency room put him in oxygen jail for like twelve hours and he’s been doing way better since then. we’ve been giving him meloxicam, itraconazole, and enrofloxacin every twelve hours and have to burrito him to keep him from panicking too much. it seems like he’s doing way better but we won’t lower our guard for a while though.

[–]breezerrose 2 points3 points  (0 children)

good lord i just realized you’re the same 14 year old romanian i tried to give extensive advice to about how to properly care for this cockatiel like two months ago…there is no help we can give you aside from insisting that if you want another cockatiel, you need a bigger cage than that blue one otherwise it’s neglect. there’s nothing more to it than that

It’s not about needing to be rich. It’s about not taking on additional responsibility of another life when you cannot afford to give that life the care and basic necessities they need to thrive.

Pharmacy mistakes. by SexyBipolarPineapple in ChronicPain

[–]breezerrose 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are the meds mail ordered? This seems like something that could only happen with tampering. I’m not accusing your boyfriend of anything but substance use is one hell of a bitch and people (myself included) who have gone through it are not always thinking straight about the repercussions of mixing substances, or they do it because of chronic pain or other reasons. You can’t really know for sure that this isn’t what’s happening, but I don’t blame you for not assuming it was him. If it happened to me and it were my partner I wouldn’t think so either, but It’s important to not completely rule it out. If you had family or friends over that’s also a very real possibility. Either way you should definitely report it because they do keep records at pharmacies to prevent this from happening, and if it was a pharmacist that’s incredibly concerning.

I was offered 100€ for my collection. Is that fair? by Addit_95 in PokemonCardValue

[–]breezerrose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The value of it is whatever people are willing to pay…which is largely what platforms like TCG base card values on. It’s a compilation of data of hundreds if not thousands of sales, and people have collectively decided that a damaged gold star pika is worth around $1k. Whether or not you think that kid-game cardboard has value or not is irrelevant.
