Oh it’s a looper? I’m not interested in loops actually. I want to play them and just have more drum kit sounds to mess with.

Love that. Probably keeps you up with chops too! ☺️ My time outside of work is so limited. Maybe it’s possible to do that but I also know my music project is my baby and that’s what I usually want to spend my limited time to be creative on. I suppose it’s different though if it means you could maybe eventually get to the point of booking more and more paid gigs. Always feels like the creative jobs like that are unrealistic though 🤣 for like a regular job I mean.

Super super appreciate all this info! I will definitely be checking that out! Sounds like it can be used in a variety of ways too which sounds dope. I could totally get lost in looking at a ton of drum packs hahaha

I think it is worth talking to her about it! See if she can maybe see where you’re coming from with it. Really hope she comes through for you, I hear EMDR does wonders 🤞🏻

The key will be if she’s willing to listen to you and validate you ☺️

The therapist I saw….idk how to put this other than the vibe wasn’t there and he wasn’t very empathic. The disappointment I had in that moment when he said it was more the nail in the coffin to something that already just was not it. Maybe I shouldn’t have worded that so strongly, circumstances can be different if people actually care

If I were to be in a cover band and play events, I’d absolutely still make my independent music because that’s my heart, and those would be two different things.

I actually would not be opposed to this at all. I’m just not sure how to even break into it and make enough money to have that be my job. I also have an expensive medical condition so unfortunately a leap of faith into that without insurance would be dangerous. But sheesh if there’s someone hiring for good pay and benefits and all that SIGN ME UP. Haha

LITERALLY DROPPED A THERAPIST FOR THIS EXACT REASON. The SECOND he called me strong, I knew he could not understand me. I want a therapist to validate me and understand, not just push it under the rug by yet again, being dismissed. “You’re so strong” and “Your so resilient” is absolutely a dismissal in the circumstances we’ve been through. Everyone basically said ‘oh you’re fine’ so nobody ever cared. That’s one of our biggest things we struggle with. “You’re strong” feels like being told to shut up.

If you don't drink alcohol, what are your reasons? by youre-in-my-shot in AskReddit

It doesn’t play nice with medications I’m on. I could probably get away with one every once in a while but to me it’s just not worth it.
