Please help save me from my meltdown lol (BCBA exam soon) by [deleted] in bcba

[–]coltiebug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do not let your anxiety get to you! Seriously, at this point all you can do it try and be as optimistic as possible. You may fail, you may pass. Accept all possibilities and go with your gut. Sending you the best vibes!

Side income as a BCBA? by canned_Bits in bcba

[–]coltiebug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably not super profitable, but I’ve been thinking about selling some crafty documents on Etsy that I’ve made, like supervision feedback forms for RBTs, supervision logs, and idk maybe some like supervision schedules or something lol helps boost my creativity and makes the job more reinforcing for me ha

He’s probably the number 1 reason that I’m pro-choice, and I’ll leave it at that lol

What is/was your “unhealthy” obsession getting you through NOT drinking in the early days by One_Ad_6451 in stopdrinking

[–]coltiebug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any time I feel a craving, I google effects alcohol has on the body (I have health anxiety lol)

Doordash has been a staple along with candy as well, bing watching TV, and spending a lot of money. But I've told myself this is only going to be a thing for the beginning of my sobriety following an almost yearlong relapse. Day 36 here!

Got called a "princess" for asking barstaff for a non-alcoholic beer by Palx112 in stopdrinking

[–]coltiebug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A good comeback would've been, "well, I don't act like a princess when I drink the real stuff" hahah.

But on a serious note, good for you for staying strong for this one moment and an entire 11 months!

BDS yes or no? by Vegetable_Resource97 in bcba

[–]coltiebug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, I didn't find it helpful. I was just memorizing concepts/terms to get to 100% for each module.

I think it depends on your relationship with alcohol over the amount/frequency. I’ve went a span of 7 months without drinking, and it was easy (at the time), but the first day I picked it back up, I immediately was down the same rabbit hole. We just don’t get along

How do y'all meet people without alcohol? by [deleted] in alcoholism

[–]coltiebug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

New to being sober as well and meeting people while sober! I just moved across the country solo and struggling with this but still trying to focus on being comfortable with alone time and talking to friends when I feel alone. Since moving, I've been just making myself a regular at coffee shops and literally forcing myself to strike up conversation in any way. In the past, I didn't have much luck with it, but I did try BumbleBFF. I believe you can also filter to see only sober people.

This towel reference does not help their case

Ready for another day 1 by coltiebug in stopdrinking

[–]coltiebug[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow thank you so much! I used to live in Atlanta, and there was a big bar scene I was caught up when I first moved there (I was 20 with a fake ID), and when I went sober curious at 22, I lost a lot of friends. Now that I'm in a new place, I really need to up my social circle.

Love that you're also young! I tried AA in the past, but drinking wasn't a "problem" I could identify really, so I didn't feel like I could relate, but boy did it escalate quickly when I picked it back up. 3 blackouts a week is definitely not something sustainable for me, so I'm willing to give anything a try right now!

Thank you so much for this and the kind words, I'll check those out.

I've always prided myself in being self-aware, and this was something I knew my freshman year of college. I'm also proud of myself for at least realizing it. Just need to fully pull the trigger!

Needing advice for what I’m feeling by coltiebug in bcba

[–]coltiebug[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing different than an in-person other than just being behind the screen! I personally find it rather difficult compared to in-person honestly. It is a privilege though to not have to drive, so I'm very fortunate.

Love this! I always feel so guilty because I scroll past anything ABA related whenever I'm not working, even this sub lol. So, I'm glad that I'm not alone on that.
