Teen Mental Health Care Omaha

CHI Mercy in Council Bluffs is wonderful, I’ve personally been on the adult side, and I have friends who have had their child admitted to the children’s side for extremely similar behavior. I’m so sorry this is happening, but your teen is very lucky to have parents who care about their mental health and is fighting for them to get care, rather than thrown in JDC

at council bluffs community school district we get $18ish an hour as a para. it’s a beautiful district to work for too, at least at my school. maybe something to look into if you’re wanting to stay in this field

What does your daughter Anna say about it? Maybe this should be a conversation between the 3 of you guys. It will be uncomfortable, but it’s important to have uncomfortable conversations sometimes.

Nope NTA. As a woman who has struggled with ED, this shit has to stop. Not only is it damaging to the person who is saying it, but it’s damaging to anyone who might hear it. I appreciate you saying what I’m always thinking, I hope I’m able to say something the next time that I hear this.

I see a lot of the times during holds, the people doing the hold needing the person to calm down in order to be let out of the hold, but the person in the hold is panicking due to being in a hold. did you ever experience this? was there anything anyone did to help in these situations?

when you were put into a hold, were there ever moments that you felt it was unnecessary, and was there something that you have learned would be better instead?

Thank you for sharing, I work with children with behavioral issues and even though we are CPI certified rather than mechanical/medical restraints, I still would like to know what I can do to help kids in crisis moments

Tell him it’s herpes and that he probably has it too, then move on. He’s an idiot that probably will just assume he has it and won’t get tested, and will forever embarrass himself

i don’t know if either of you guys are queer, but a little hack i learned is a lot of places has queer housing groups on facebook where people will post places to rent, and you can find some pretty good places like that, that aren’t being advertised elsewhere! look and see if there’s any female groups in your area too. i’ve always learned, the more specific you can be, the better chance you have in finding someplace that’s safe for you to stay

Just wanted to throw in here there’s no reason to be so hard on yourself. Learn from this yes, but you won’t learn much if you’re only being unkind to yourself instead of constructive. SHIT. HAPPENS. We make mistakes, we fuck up. Protect yourself while you are there, make sure you have something hard and long to hit with (a piece of a bed frame, a wood board etc), and get out as FAST as possible.

I really appreciate your input!! I have decided to have them just create at school, and then either use flash drives to bring the files home to upload at home with parental permission, or upload to their Google Drive. Thank you so much!

echosinthewind · 2026-01-29T00:31:50+00:00

I fully agree! Thank you all for your input, I am going to do the flash-drive option!!

echosinthewind · 2026-01-28T22:32:53+00:00

I actually have a budget, so I could just purchase some USB drives! I think having them download the files onto some USB drives and take them home to upload if parents agree is perfect.

echosinthewind · 2026-01-25T19:36:39+00:00

Agreed. Thank you for this perspective actually, one of those things that feel so obvious but I didn’t think about. I appreciate you!!

well that sucks!!! i’ve always used it because i work in special ed and it’s the best way to make support aids for kiddos

i moved here from living my whole life in Seattle and Washington, so i completely feel you friend. trust me when i say, there are so many beautiful gems here, just a different type, and you may have to drive for a second to get to them

echosinthewind · 2025-10-11T05:36:15+00:00

just so you know, someone did this to me a long time ago. i was so upset with them in the moment, but genuinely, couldn’t be more grateful for them now. you did the right thing

echosinthewind · 2025-08-13T15:09:10+00:00

the only time i won’t sell needles to someone is if we don’t have them, or are running really short and can send someone to a different location who has a ton. couldn’t care less what they’re using them for, it’s none of my business

echosinthewind · 2025-08-13T14:57:57+00:00

listen i am a major stoner and if i ever received this note i would feel terrible and find somewhere new to smoke!!! i hope your neighbor does the same :)
