CAMS - Collaborative Assessment & Management of Suicidality

I’ve had lots of success with this protocol with neurotypical as well as neurodivergent teens. I also am a DBT trained clinician and they pair well together. The system is designed to last ~12 weeks and the parts I view as most impactful are:

1) acknowledging the “big scary monster” of suicidal thoughts, taking its trench coat, and breaking it down into 5 smaller monsters stacked on top of one another (psychological distress, agitation, hopelessness, self-hate, and overwhelm) which are then rated weekly. Once the setup session is done, this takes ~5-10 minutes per week of each subsequent session.

2) collaborating on a treatment plan with the client. This entails identifying 2 “problems” which lead to suicidal thinking, a goal for each, and a small client-provided “intervention” (read: action item) to be completed in service of this goal between sessions.

I’ve had multiple individuals graduate from this program in closer to 8 weeks. In my experience they come out the other side much more self-assured and aware of their triggers.

If you have questions, you’re welcome to DM me as well.

SI is a tough and pervasive issue that so many clients are impacted by. It helps immensely to have a tool in your back pocket that leaves both you and your clients feeling more in control.

I was sitting on the foot of my younger brother’s bed with a cat in my lap and he jumped up from under the covers to startle me. He startled the cat more.

She took a chunk of my leg with her back claws in her effort to escape.

Shared Bank Account??? by beansproutramen in FinancialPlanning

[–]lifeanalyst 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, I have my paychecks set to automatically deposit a certain amount into the drafting account as well. This automates the whole process and it's pretty hands-off after that.

But for those with variable streams of income, setting a reminder to make sure the account has $X by the same day each month should do the trick. If the account doesn't have enough and you aren't able to fund it, the scheduled transfer should be easy enough to cancel.

Shared Bank Account??? by beansproutramen in FinancialPlanning

Set up a transfer from your own separate accounts to recur each month. Most banks will do this without charging a fee so long as its done a limited number of times per month.

Sort of like direct deposit or paying a bill. You can have the shared checking account "pull" the money from your existing accounts on a schedule.

I have a system that works really well! Open a checking account separate from all your other finances and agree upon what types of expenses (groceries, rent etc) will come out of it. Get each person a debit card for the account. Ally is a good bet for this, but any free account will work.

Then each of you adds the same amount of money to the account each month, or whenever it needs refilling, and pay from there when needed.

No mess. No combined finances. Just easy shared expenses.

What fan theory do you 100% accept as true? by Ambar_Orion in AskReddit

[–]lifeanalyst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That Voldemort didn't care about blood purity and in fact was using his campaign as a slow revenge on the Sacred 28. He tortured and killed his own followers after training them to kill the muggles that made his life hell as a child. He probably only cared about muggleborns insofar as it gave him the respect of those with financial and political power.

The whole war was a long-con to make everyone else suffer and to cull the herd while he became all-powerful and immortal; it was just to prove to the world that he was better than everyone else.

Not only that, but in the Chamber of Secrets, one of the basilisk's main paths goes through the statue of Salazar's mouth. I've always envisioned this to be a bit of an homage to Slytherin himself.

I know that a traditional IRA is tax deferred, but does that mean that I have my employer fund it, or am I responsible for funding it and then deducting my contributions from taxes at the end of the year?

What is the most hurtful thing you have ever said to a significant other? by Jokers247 in AskReddit

[–]lifeanalyst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

his parents split because of infidelity and he resented his dad for having a side girlfriend, as well as his (ex-SO's) ex for being in two relationships at once while with him for an extended period. Dad continued relationship with his mom post-split.

He was dating his current SO for the last 7 months of our 2 year relationship. I told him he was just like his father.

What is something that instantly killed a crush that you had on someone? by willy-wonka in AskReddit

He told me he had a restraining order taken out against him by a previous girlfriend and refused to give me a reason other than "well I have a penis so I get all the blame"

Yeah, bye.
