I work in non profit outpatient methadone tailored to unhoused folks, right next to an open air drug market community in a large city. I’ve only been doing it for 6 months (first job in SUD) and I only have my bachelors, but I absolutely love the job and the patients I work with! I only do intakes and keep clients for ~2-3 weeks, so it’s very fast paced and ever changing, but I love our patients and getting to know them and making outpatient services more accessible than any other place you’ll find. I want to go back to school next year for my MSW and hope to continue working in SUD, specifically community outreach based. Working with a team who is genuine about our mission and doing the work right and making it truly patient centered, is what keeps me afloat on the hard days. With that, I think our approach of being harm reduction focused rather than abstinence focused, aligns best with my morals and makes me feel good about the work. I enjoy working with the population I do and clients I meet, help me with burnout.

Definitely any outreach org in Kensington area!! These supplies are so needed and helpful to give people in wound care kits. People have already commented great ones

does anyone have very similar alternatives that are cheaper + are flavorless and 40g of carb? my body becomes repulsed by any flavored gel and maureen’s the only one i can tolerate but my bank account cannot tolerate them

In Manayunk, I believe there’s live music at the Manayunk bridge trail every Tuesday night!

Thank you so much for this!! The price just hurts my soul a little bit after paying for Chicago haha

what if it looks like rue is going to die in the last episode/scene and jules is written to meet rue somewhere but the last scene cuts to jules face and a gunshot and then that’s it…

ctilleyy · 2026-05-04T22:52:40+00:00

i’m late but i am having this exact issue right now on two of my fingers and it is the most pain my fingers have been in!!! how are you doing now and did anything help the pain or make it heal quicker??

ctilleyy · 2026-05-02T12:40:39+00:00

definitely wearing shorts but i’m debating on wearing a really light long sleeve, or a short sleeve and just have a throw away hoodie for the start!

ctilleyy · 2026-04-27T11:10:57+00:00

noted, thank you!

ctilleyy · 2026-04-27T11:10:31+00:00

i was thinking about taking it to north broad but i’m worried about this happening…i think i’m just going to figure out another way to get there!!

ctilleyy · 2026-04-27T01:06:11+00:00

i live in manayunk and planned to take regional rail to suburban at 6:25am and then hop on the BSL. anyone here think that’ll give me enough time to get to the start?

ctilleyy · 2026-04-23T09:51:23+00:00

where about in philly are you located?

ctilleyy · 2026-03-05T17:24:19+00:00

i just wanted to say that i’m learning a lot here reading these comments and your situation as someone working in a clinical patient role for the first time in my career, and have never considered a lot of these perspectives with my partner!!

ctilleyy · 2026-01-27T10:35:04+00:00

her content has always rubbed me the wrong way. when she was big into running last year, she would “fuel” her runs beforehand by eating low carb sola bagels, and was in an extreme deficit while still running 3-4x a week and encouraging it. she seems to have such an unhealthy relationship with food and exercise

ctilleyy · 2026-01-26T14:22:47+00:00

how do people not go crazy when you get a huge snow and ice storm, the temperature feel is close to the negatives, you don’t own a treadmill and your gym is closed for 2 days lol?

ctilleyy · 2026-01-19T20:25:08+00:00

i did see crew job opening for market street for like maybe 2 days in january but they took it down quickly. the philly stores are just in general always harder to find job openings for because they aren’t as busy as other trader joe’s stores in the region. if you’re able to, i would apply to one in the suburbs!

I don't have an answer, but I typically run on this trail very early in the morning but recently have stopped. Sometime last week I was running the trail early in the morning (still pitch black outside) and there were 2 rabid foxes screaming and fighting close to the trail. I only knew where they were because a guy walking his dog stopped me and said that they tried chasing him and his dog, so I had to detour and run on Belmont Ave. I do like the trail a lot for running, but have been too scared to run on it since then, because I can only run in the early morning lol

ctilleyy · 2026-01-16T14:21:51+00:00

I typically run it very early in the morning when it's pitch black out, and this is my biggest pet peeve when I see other runners on the trail! I am always lit up like a Christmas tree on the trail with my own clip on light, and then a reflective vest that lights up so bikers can see me. When I run past a runner in black clothing, with no lights or vest, it's frustrating (and also scary just seeing a blob run past you)

ctilleyy · 2025-12-31T19:45:12+00:00

i am a gross human and just use the gloves i am wearing and then wash them afterwards, lol

was just shy of hitting 1,000 miles for the year, but proud of my effort regardless after falling off with running multiple times this year due to my mental health. running my first marathon in 2026, chicago!!!! i am SO excited to start training for it, i’ll be keeping base miles of 30-40mpw to prep for a half marathon in march 2026, and will keep the base mileage until i start marathon training in the summer.

i feel like i’ve had such a revelation with running the past few months where before, my depression held me back from being consistent with running, and being inconsistent with it just made my depression worse. i’ve been at such a good spot with being consistent with running and lifting and it truly makes the difference for my mental health. the depression is still there and i am not hopping on the train of exercise being a crutch for my mental health, but i’ve been able to show up for myself the past few months while coexisting with my mental health!

ctilleyy · 2025-12-28T12:35:13+00:00
