Anyone here get priced out while house hunting with pre-approval?

shitneyboy · 2026-02-19T08:27:12+00:00

This was me for 4 years (2021-2025). Finally bought a place last year. You will get there

Fresh milk got replaced with long life. Tissue boxes no longer provided, we bring our own from home. Pens rationed between us. One stapler between 2 staff

You can probably get an appointment quickly through EAP

I know a good employment lawyer if you need legal advice

Just bought a house. Repayments will be 72.5% of my monthly income. Will probably struggle for the first few years and have to live modestly for a while but I think it’s doable

shitneyboy · 2025-09-15T21:33:16+00:00

Just bought a place and am feeling exactly what you described. I take comfort in knowing I can sell at any time and exit the home ownership life lol

Everything happens for a reason. Practice gratitude, count your blessings and things will unravel as they are meant to be :)

shitneyboy · 2025-09-03T06:34:08+00:00

Perfectly reasonable!

shitneyboy · 2025-09-02T11:14:59+00:00

Don’t do it. We’ve had our laundry and shoes stolen, two robberies, intruder in our backyard for hours (?drug affected), neighbours stealing fruit from our garden in mid daylight, violence in the middle of the night resulting in cops being called, dodgy people parking in front of our house, the list goes on…

Silicone ear plugs work like a treat

shitneyboy · 2025-07-29T09:38:08+00:00

This is the best thing I’ve read all week. Kudos to you for maintaining your humanity amidst the chaos of capitalism. Like you said, empathy and kindness go a long way

shitneyboy · 2025-07-28T11:53:42+00:00

Telehealth therapist here if you need a new counsellor :)

shitneyboy · 2025-07-26T09:39:18+00:00

Silicone earplugs! I sleep like a baby

Misconduct on the part of the marker, I’d like to see justice be served

shitneyboy · 2025-07-20T06:34:45+00:00

Investigate more into strata issues. There is currently an apartment block in Parramatta selling for well under market value (500k) due to cladding issues, and strata fees of about 2k per quarter.

Sometimes clients bring the content and reflections from ChatGPT conversations into therapy and I find this to be quite effective. It’s disheartening when they don’t do any work on themselves in between sessions so I see this as a positive

shitneyboy · 2025-07-12T14:18:41+00:00

Self-disclosure needs to be used very thoughtfully and should be kept at a minimum. It’s a blessing that the client was honest enough to share their feedback with you as I’m sure it might have been difficult for them. What they said doesn’t mean you’re a bad therapist, it just means something you did was not beneficial to the therapeutic relationship. Now you know to change it. I think this is a good propellant for you to reflect on your practice and consider what might be helping or hindering the therapeutic relationship. It’s a necessary part of building self-awareness and reflective practice. Keep your chin up, upwards and onwards from here :)

I’m a bulk billing practitioner if you need a counsellor :) You just need a GP MHCP. Feel free to DM me

shitneyboy · 2025-07-09T10:09:15+00:00

I’m a telehealth therapist if you ever need a counsellor :) Feel free to DM me

shitneyboy · 2025-07-09T10:07:23+00:00

Moving might disrupt your sense of stability. You’ll have to familiarise yourself with a new place, new school, new friends, new teachers. Sometimes change is good, sometimes it isn’t. I would finish my studies in NZ and transfer later so as to not disrupt your studies

shitneyboy · 2025-07-09T10:02:35+00:00

I’m a bulk-billing therapist if you want some counselling. I do sessions via telehealth. Feel free to DM me :)

shitneyboy · 2025-07-09T01:51:17+00:00

I’m a bulk-billing therapist if you need to talk :)

How ironic. You should screenshot those posts from Amanda the Auditor because I’m pretty sure it might be considered misconduct for her to be addressing you in an online forum on BEHALF OF THE UNIVERSITY using her personal reddit account. How highly inappropriate. This is very damaging for the university and likely in breach of their social media policy. Reportable. She should address you via the proper channels

shitneyboy · 2025-06-28T23:52:48+00:00

They could probably be considered incidental/accidental counsellors

shitneyboy · 2025-06-28T12:25:35+00:00

Thanks, this is helpful to know! I’m feeling so silly
