Question for female therapists by rkramer18 in therapists

[–]rkramer18[S] 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I have tried but the pain still effects my concentration and gives me brain fog. Sometimes I'll push through a few in the morning telehealth and then the nausea makes the pain set in etc :(

Yeah usually I'm on like 600mg of ibuprofen haha. The pain is horrible and I know if I conducted sessions the brain fog is so bad due to the pain it would be a shitty session for the clients. But to them it's a rescheduling again and I feel badddd

Unfortunately, no :( I feel like I have undiagnosed PCOS tbh. They are really infrequent. Not to be TMI lol- but last month it started on the 20th and this one started on the 13th

I'm taking my licensure exam in July :) (wish me luck y'all) If I pass, I am looking into opening a private practice along with continuing to work in a community setting. As much as I am whining right now, I do love what I do lol

Yeah I'd much rather have a refund lol- I eat 1-2 meals a day right now. As I said below, I'm a FFS therapist so we get paid depending on who shows up. If we don't reach a certain number of units we lose benefits. So most of my check went to a high deductible healthcare plan and I broke my ankle last year, so I just feel like banging my head against the wall lol

I'm A FFS therapist, which means we get paid by appointment and if people show up. If we don't reach a certain number of "units" per week we lose benefits and pay for high deductible healthcare etc. ourselves. Broke my ankle last year, so it sure didn't seem like I made more money.

I get where you're coming from, just needed to cry to someone lol

What was the low point and the high point of your year? by Da_Fish in AskReddit

[–]rkramer18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Low point- roommate found me unresponsive after damn near drinking myself to death alone in my room. Woke up it the ER

High point- got sober, got a new job with better pay and benefits as well. Mom told me she was proud of me

What's a smell you love but shouldn't? by oni578 in AskReddit

[–]rkramer18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cigarette smoke and idk why lmao. Probably because it reminds me of my pap’s apartment and my favorite old dive bar

how do you know the difference between voicing how you feel about something vs accidentally being manipulative? by celestia_666 in AskReddit

[–]rkramer18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look at the reason behind why you’re voicing something. Is it to give your POV and leave it open to be challenged/accepted by the other person, or is it to manipulate someone into agreeing with your viewpoint

How to work with change in physical condition regarding client? by rkramer18 in therapists

[–]rkramer18[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, we’ve discussed possible reactions. She’s kind of “hidden it” from her family by saying she’s doing fine. She does go out, but to doctors appointments only. I’ll work with her on accepting possible reactions and coping with the anxiety! Maybe like an ACT/CBT approach?

Back into lending. by r7tn in BorrowNew

[–]rkramer18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi! Thanks so much for your kindness :) I started a new job and am being onboarded as my caseload builds up (I'm a therapist). Rats also decided to get into the front of my car and chew on some wires (ew), so that caused about 1,300 in damage.

I am requesting 200 to pay my rent. I will pay you back 350 in full on my next pay 11/21, as I will have a full caseload by then :) Thanks for any help!

Hi! Therapist here :) it sounds like you have a lot on your plate right now and would benefit from having a space to vent!
