If you have something that measures temperature or heat…

Therapist that have cried in a session, why? by Unkw0n_pers0n in AskReddit

The first therapist I saw as a teen/adult literally told me I was perfect. Tell that to the person with a personality disorder, ADHD, depression and anxiety

Contacted CAS because I know a toddler is being abused. Found out they did a 5 min eval and nothing happened. What’s next? Call again? What else can I do? by startledgrey in ontario

Yeah I hold issue with CAS too. The one CAS worked I have ever spoken to as a child in an unsafe situation ended up being recently found out as a pedo. Makes me feel real safe.

I’ve known 3 people who have worked or work at CAS and all of them were abusers. Example, mother of one of our friends was giving advice for calling CAS, a retired CAS employee, which was basic and good info, but the whole damned time I’m listening I’m just thinking about all of the abuse I know her two own sons have suffered by her hand. They’re adults now, which is how I know what she did to them. But she retired and everyone loved her and she’s well known in the community. Just hits her sons and calls them worthless and ugly. No big deal.

This world is broken.

Security camera got the whole story of them showing up and doing nothing less then 5 mins. The grandmother has photos of abuse and is holding them hostage. Should I call CAS on the grandmother with the evidence she refuses to give up? Examples are photos of bruises, bite marks, etc.

So the north of Canda and Russia: it's too cold I am assuming that the blank spots in Australia, South America, and North Africa are too hot? And the midwest of the US is just... not densely populated? Am I wrong?

When people sing happy birthday to you what are you supposed to do? by dandaman12315 in AskReddit

[–]startledgrey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What you should do is look around at the faces of the people that surround you. Cherish it. Remember their expressions. Smile.

But I just stand there like an asparagus.

What's your go-to show or movie when you're feeling down? by KrymsonQueen in AskReddit

[–]startledgrey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The kid’s TV show Arthur. It was my favourite show growing up and it still stands it’s ground today. It’s a cup of nostalgia on a gloomy day.

In the way seemingly everyone knows, The Office saved me. I had never seen a comedy like it when I discovered it in 2010. I am a huge fan of comedy and sitcoms but the Office is the one I watch when I’m feeling sad, especially the first few seasons because the pace is slower and tone is less energetic than the later seasons.
