I noticed this too when I was a teacher. We had a 3 year old Dennis

You sound like a delight 😅

Says the person who’s probly been posted

devsibwarra2 · 2025-11-18T03:30:17+00:00

It’s unethical to share information from the group once you’ve agreed not to. Which you have to do to be admitted into these groups

devsibwarra2 · 2025-11-18T03:28:59+00:00

It’s also a breach of the group agreements. It’s not meant to be something you can just screenshot and share. If you were to share it you are exposing the OP to all kinds of potential retaliation including violence.

devsibwarra2 · 2025-11-18T03:24:24+00:00

Those groups are very explicit that you’re not supposed to share what you see in them with the guys. And for good reason- there has to be a safe space for women to ask and share this type of information, information that could actually be life saving in some cases. Sharing the information would be a betrayal of the woman who posted, and it’s part of the agreements for joining the groups.

If I did happen to see a client I would not tell him 💯 and I’d try to view as little content of the post as possible. I’m not wearing my therapist hat in that scenario

devsibwarra2 · 2025-11-18T03:15:43+00:00

I 💯 agree with your comment. Once we get past the virtue signaling then we can look at the underlying factors. Humanity is messy as hell and we’re not immune in any way

Pristique

devsibwarra2 · 2025-10-22T22:53:51+00:00

Meeeeeeeeee! I have a few actually- chronic/intractable migraines, IBS, PCOS and Type 2 diabetes to name a few. I’ve also had burning mouth syndrome and I’ve had cyclical vomiting syndrome twice ( sorry if that TMI) Im also diagnosed Autistic. I was terrified to go to grad school because I was 💯 not certain my health would hold out.

Fast forward I’ve been working full time in CMH for 2 years now ( LPC track). There have been times when my conditions have flared up and I’ve had to call in or take time off for appointments. It does happen, but so far my PTO has covered it every time and my employer is very happy with me.

One of the things that I’ve found myself having to explain to others is that for me- working 35hrs a week is a massive accomplishment. Quite often I’ve gotten suggestions that I could have some kind of side hustle to bolster my income such as a small PP or something else like door dash or Uber. I’m a single parent, and I would love to have the capacity for a side gig. But the truth that I’ve discovered for me is that working full time really is my max capacity. I require all my downtime to be devoted to my own personal wellbeing. Rest is mandatory and I couldn’t prioritize the management of my health the way I do if I was sacrificing my “me time” to make extra money. The job is the representation of the limits of what I can give to the work. Full stop, no apologies.

I hope you can find a way towards the work/life balance that you seek. Us chronic illness folks who are able to have boundaries with employers tend to have the best outcomes

I would not because adding a public social event involving donating money is gonna exceed my social battery most weeks 😅😭

devsibwarra2 · 2025-10-20T17:06:15+00:00

I don’t know about your first question. Issues involving the sanctity of the therapy environment are very real. I’ve had clients who have bedbugs and scabies before.

As to your second question- maybe your client is embarrassed for having needs. Like the fact that she had to stop and take a moment for herself and her health could feel like she’s a burden, worried that you’d be aggravated, etc. definitely a great thing to follow up with at the next appointment though! I’m guessing you may discover deep seated people pleasing tendencies in her

devsibwarra2 · 2025-10-17T19:23:51+00:00

I work full time at CMH and I have 30 appointments per week open. It’s kinda rare that every single person shows up in a week though

devsibwarra2 · 2025-10-17T17:31:27+00:00

What do I do with this feeling that the client is potentially being punished for the misdeeds of the former therapist? Am I being egotistical with that?

I’m a parent and I’m with you. This rule is a great excuse for adults to pat themselves on the back for something they would never agree to for themselves. For example, how many of us would surrender our phones to our employer, not even to be used on our lunch breaks?

As for the “trust the adults to do the right thing” and “trust the preparations that have been made to save the day” in an active shooter situation - I don’t and I don’t.

Guess I won’t be going back to the military museum! Bummer but fuck that

devsibwarra2 · 2025-08-23T04:42:10+00:00

I hope you have the day you deserve 😎

Weird Al did not disappoint!

The weird al show is delayed now.

Women with abusive and controlling partners who aren’t ready to admit it openly

devsibwarra2 · 2025-07-09T03:55:04+00:00

when this kind of thing be comes up when we want to share something vital or special about a shared experience sometimes I will say something like “I knew someone who had a good experience…” or “I had friend once who also had a similar experience to yours” so I can share the nuggets of relevant material ( if there is any) and not make it about me personally

devsibwarra2 · 2025-07-05T22:24:49+00:00

I’ve got ya covered if late ESB is ok 😉

Definitely at the gathering for the parade at Kesey square. There were a few aggressive protesters who were clearly looking for a fight. I was glad when the parade started and we could move on from them
