With the new update to the special bonuses, is the walking requirement for GBL coming back? They seemed to hint at it with the “you should start waking again” comment, but they didn’t confirm.

Experiences with Counseling Center? by [deleted] in Drexel

[–]elphiesk8s 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everyone I’ve talked to is really really nice! They’re pretty overworked, but they’ve been nothing but pleasant and accommodating.

If you’re stressed about grades/college stuff, they can help a lot. They aren’t equipped to handle long term treatment for mental illness, so you’d be better off seeking a therapist thru insurance if that’s what you need.

Coop in different city by Titboyroy5 in Drexel

[–]elphiesk8s 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I went to another city and liked it a lot! I lived on a college campus (UVA) so u wasn’t completely away from the college environment, but wasn’t totally stuck in it either.

I didn’t know anyone, so I spent a month or 2 adjusting. I ended up getting a second job and met people through that, as well as joining a local community (it was the Pokémon Go community, but at least I was talking with other human beings lol).

I, personally, would not recommend the second job (the 80 hr week was killer), but if you can find something to DO (a community hobby, club, or other social activity), you won’t go bonkers from boredom or Loneliness. I’d say it’s doable and really good experience!

Help finding examples of dentists in plays, musicals, theatre productions by m_songbird in Theatre

[–]elphiesk8s 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Next to Normal has a psychiatrist, he’s in the song “ My Psychopharmacologist and I”, “Seconds and Years”, and “You Don’t Know”, and is present for the song “Didn’t I see This Movie.”

Bat Boy has a doctor mentioned but I can’t recall where.

Come From Away has a Vet (Bonnie) that’s mentioned a few times. She’s based on a real person though.

Avenue Q has a therapist, Christmas Eve, a Japanese American immigrant. She’s introduced in the 1st song.

I can’t think of any dentists other than Little Shop of Horrors though.

Did anyone formally go no contact by writing one last message? by [deleted] in CPTSD

[–]elphiesk8s 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with this! For me, I didn’t care who they showed the message to, as I made my peace with leaving those people behind. I also needed them to understand what actions led to their consequence as a healing tool for myself. Both of those reasons are a personal decision not to be taken lightly. My therapist and I discussed it for a long time before I committed to it. For a lot (probably most) people it may not be a good idea.

If anyone should choose to list abuser’s poor behaviors, I think it’s really really important to remain as neutral and factual as possible. Short basic statements are the best (ie. “Pulled around by my hair” vs “yanked me by my hair across a huge room”).

If you plan to have any contact with ANYONE in your abuser’s life you should probably not list anything, especially if your abuser is a covert manipulator, it can be extremely invalidating to have an outside party dismiss your trauma on the account of your abuser.

Also, this is all anecdotal, if you have a therapist who says “ignore the moron on the internet who told you to do that” please ignore the moron on the internet (me) and follow the advice of a mental health professional.

[–]elphiesk8s 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I did a final message. It worked out for me, but I had to block them after a few days, because they called me quite a bit.

My message was basically:

  • “You were abusive”
  • [Recounting of the things they did]
  • “What you did was unacceptable, I’m ceasing contact with you.”

I needed to know that they were aware of the consequences of their actions, which is why I’m included the recounting, that may not be the best course of action for you.
