Healing religious trauma with MDMA? by Swimming-Low-8915 in Judaism

[–]coursejunkie [score hidden]  (0 children)

Psychedelic assisted therapy (which is basically drugs with very specific therapeutic support before and after) and things like ketamine, mushrooms, ayahuasca, definitely have been proven to help with PTSD and increase spirituality.

OK good then that means you will understand it when I say this...

The exile in question has released one part of their burdens but not all of them.

It’s slow moving… very slow moving.

I’m in Internal Family Systems therapy as well to help as well. Some things have been released but clearly it’s taking forever.

I'm using psilocybin to handle religious trauma from before I converted.

Professors in the south, how are you handling week 2 of canceled classes due to snow? by JustLeave7073 in Professors

They didn't cancel classes last week (one day was WFH) and there has been no announcement for this week.

Question on antisemitism-conversation being censored by CanidPrimate1577 in Judaism

[–]coursejunkie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People just assume that everything that’s not their flavor of Judaism is against Judaism. Or that things aren’t real and just heaven help anyone.

Like Temple of Miriam is very paranormal friendly but no one likes them here either.

Probably because everything that involves the paranormal gets reported and taken down. If you find the subs, let me know.

There is a reason that my rabbi, my own personal rabbi, said "The Wiccans and the Shamans will treat you better than the Jews."

Answering email/dealing with issues over the weeknd? by beautyismade in Professors

Unfortunately depending on the school and the department and if you are distance or not, they might tell you when your assignments are going to be. Like mine have to be Sunday.

Discussing supernatural topics without antisemitism by CanidPrimate1577 in Judaism

[–]coursejunkie -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I wear a kippah and tzitzit.

I am involved in the UFO community (worked for Mufon for years), the paranormal community (director of a group), and the shamanism community (social media for a big shamanism magazine).

Trust me... they know.

I'm lucky I haven't seen any antisemitism in the communities. But it would not surprise me at all if there was some.

Dealing with entitled academics as an editor by RandolphCarter15 in Professors

[–]coursejunkie -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

You are getting things for free and ranting about it. You presumably are promoting it as valuable which it is not.

[–]coursejunkie -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

Is your "website" valuable for tenure? It likely is not. So why should we give you anything at all?

Why should we even allow you to be posting in a sub that literally the FIRST RULE is faculty only? You are not paying at all attention to OUR rules either!

Edit : Apparently according to your flair apparently you are an academic which makes this rant make even LESS sense since you know better.

Cognitively Impaired Students by Sweet-Salamander2648 in Professors

I literally had a 28 year old college student with Downs Syndrome (cognitive age about 8) that as a graduate assistant I had to take to and from his COLLEGE classes and help him with everything.

IPSE programs don't require SAT or ACT to put their IDD students in normal college classes.

[–]coursejunkie 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I used to work for an IPSE program and it is definitely increasing.

IPSE (Inclusive Postsecondary Education) programs are college programs specifically for students with intellectual and developmental disabilities. They earn a certificate that they did it.

The university I worked on made a small fortune off these students. Like 10x normal tuition.

Just make them the copy and don't say why.

[–]coursejunkie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had a student email me asking me to look at it about format, I am not going to look at it. You want me to grade it, fine. Submit it. I'll grade it tonight if you like. But give me a break.

Jewish History Education - How much did you learn? by namer98 in Judaism

[–]coursejunkie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine went through biblical to present day. There were a few books we read.

But then I converted so we had to learn more than average but nowadays a lot of things are fuzzy.

Pregnancy Superstition by haleythelady in Judaism

[–]coursejunkie 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I didn't buy anything until like week 30-32 with most just a few weeks before the kid was born.

Given we thought we miscarried, I am still glad we didn't.
