Pain of Mind posted:You just stop playing video games, reading, and watching tv shows, movies, and random junk on youtube, it is easy. This is how my wife and I manage our 3 year and 3 month old. I work full time and am out the house most days from 7:30am - 5:45-6pm. She is a stay at home mom with both of them (I dont want that job). The moment I get home I get a baby in my hands while I make dinner. Then I hand the baby back and she starts the baby and her's bedtime routine and I start the toddler's bedtime routine. I normally get about 45 mins to 1 hour of down time (sometimes) before its time for bed at 9:30pm bc I get up at 5am to exercise in house and going to bed that early means I normally can get about 7ish hours of interrupted sleep. Most of the time that 45 mins to 1 hour I am too fried to play any games and just drink a protein shake and watch my 55 gal community planted tank while zoning out on my phone. The planted tank is dope though. I am getting some Bolivian Rams this weekend that I am very excited about.

I set a goal of doing a 100 mile work week on my stationary bike this week. So riding 20 miles a day M-F. Monday through Thursday was cool and good and I was completely motivated to wake up at 5am to do my ride and then a short 25 min light/moderate intensity lifting with my 30lb slamball and 45 lb plate. Yesterday my now 4 month old got her vaccines and was up throughout the night in discomfort as she reacted to them and my 3 year old wanted me to co sleep with her in her twin bed (i am 6'7" tall). When my watch went off at 5am this morning I was dragggingggggg asssssssss, but did the ride anyway, basically told myself "stop whining you sit all day" and was able to bust out the final 20 miles even managed 20MPH which was a grind but I didnt want to take any longer than an hour and my pace for the first 20 mins was like 16 miles per hour and I just didnt want to spend 1 hour 20 mins bc I was just dragging. Ending up kicking my poo poo into gear and caught the 20 MPH pace and crushed the ride. Feeling proud and eager for a rest day tomorrow. 2023 going well

Blowjob Overtime posted:What's a good place to start in Crusader Kings 3 if I've done 90% of Ireland about three times between CK2 and CK3? Understand most of the basics, but not ready for a crucible. What kind for story do you want to tell? Do you want to start tribal and reform? HAllstien is an easy start. You start as a single county Norse count and can raid and terror your way into forming Norman culture. I think only starting feudal norse India and the Tibetan plateau are also fun if you want to get out of Europe. Doing a Siberia run is interesting cu you essentially spend 300 years getting ready for the mongols is fun (they still fuckdd me up)

First day back I weighed in 10 full pounds lighter which for me was 245 down to 235. hosed me up man. Take it easy. Edit: I didn't know I had covid when I went to the gym.

Bird in a Blender posted:Forgot the worst part. I have to explain my cat dying to my 3 year old. We had to put down our senior pug of 15.5 years a week after my 2nd daughter was born (about 5 months ago) and our other daughter was just 3 years old at the time. We waited until my three year old started to ask questions about where he was and then we answered them directly without making it a huge deal or talking about doggy heaven / lying. Just "when animals get old they die and aren't here any more. Carl was very old and got very sick and he died. We are very sad he is gone and miss him very much. He was uncomfortable / in pain and he is not anymore. We still love him very much" And kind of hit that on repeat until she understood the concept that sometimes animals get old and then they die and arent here any more. It took her about 1 week to notice he wasnt around anymore and even start asking questions. The other 2 dogs in the household were freaking the gently caress out when we left and came back without him. They probably could smell the grief hormones or whatever when i returned. I cried for a full 30 mins at the vets office. They took a full 3 months to adjust to be honest.

I really had hoped I could put off that conversation for at least a day. Sorry dude but that was my experience. Anxiety about her noticing and having the talk sucked so at least you are going for it. Its a hard time no matter how it goes.

Bird in a Blender posted:The “problem” of being a parent is that it sucks up 95% of your free time. So you barely have time to do anything interesting that isn’t somehow tied to your kids. Unless your job is inherently interesting I guess. I have a 6 month and 3.5 year old. Can confirm. I mostly go to the gym due to the infinite grace of my wife as a hobby and that doesn't make me interesting bc I'm 35 and no one cares about my marginal gains since my goals are more self regulation and health than sick gains I aint got time to go out bc 2 young kids takes 2 grown adults worth of care and attention

@ sexual elk.guy I'm a licensed mental health counselor and I cannot express enough how lovely those online therapy services are (better help, cerebral, etc) and most skilled snd fully licensed clinicians stay the gently caress away and either work at a local agency or are in private practice for themselves. At 230 a month you should just pay out of.pocket for 2x monthly for someone (many rates are like 125-150 a session) or go through your insurance to see who they cover. Psychology today is actually a really good way to find a therapist who takes your insurance and someone who is willing to do.telehealth. Also never be afraid to.fire your therapist. The relationship is where the healing comes from and not everyone is a good fit. Also also ask your therapist about their theoretical orientation and modalities they are trained in and what is their philosophy of healing. If they don't give satisfactory answers find someone else. When I was supervising associate clinicians I always opened with asking about and helping them develop their philosophy of healing cuz that's what is going to drive your interventions and how you will frame the clients presenting problem and your hypothesis of what will help.them.get unstuck. Good.luck!!!!

I think when we are getting Shrek 5, frozen 3, and s live remake of moana less than 7-8 years after release we can say that people will keep paying for the same thing vs try something new, but also they are out of ideas and afraid to take risks because money. Though I don't think it's kind of fair to expect new things from capitalist children's media when kids just want to see the same thing 1000x

Ehud posted:That’s badass. If you're interested in psych stuff become a counselor. We need more therapists. In my experience many prescribers who don't also practice therapy aren't always helpful since they think the can just prescribe a cure to the "problem" rather than address what the actual problem is that Is manifesting as psychiatric symptoms (psychotic, bi polar, and AdHd dx not withstanding as those are things you learn to live with and manage with meds). Clients have talked at length with me about difficulties with prescribers not understanding their issues and not listening to them. Not to mention that most prescribers only see clients once every 3-6 months to check on med efficacy most of the time. Meds have their place imo but if you want to be face to face with mental health and join people on their journey to a new healthy and adaptive life and hold the honor of thier secrets and pain as you guide and suuport them in thier most challenging moments then become a counselor. (Therapy rules)

Ehud posted:That’s good insight, thanks! I’ve looked into therapy as well. It’s sort of confusing to parse as an outsider because there are a million different names for seemingly very similar positions. I have a bachelor's in Women, Sexuality, and Gender studies and a Masters degree in clinical mental.health counseling. I practice in the northwest (go hawks) so acronyms will be specific to my state. I think in Florida my license is called LPC ( licensed professional counselor). I didn't take my first actual proper psych class until grad school. Youu don't need a psych background to be a good counselor. I am fully.licensed now so I could do private practice but I have been part of agencies because I have a family so i can insure I have a stable income and health benefits for them. I will be starting in May at a local hospitals counseling clinic so with many ofmy referrals and clients coming from their PCP and health care system so working prescribers will be a big part of my job! I have worked at community mental health agency's in the past with integrated Healthcare and prescribers as you imagine are a mixed bag. Some are grounded and cool others are haughty and need enpathy training. Many times I see myself as a client advocate and get to see how the impacts of meds are playing out on a client's everyday life since i see them every week or every other week. I am often the one who makes the Dsm diagnosis and consult with the prescriber about how symptoms are manifesting (I don't make any med recommendations or anything like that) and how efficacious the meds are for the client and relay symptoms or prompt early meetings between clients and the prescribers. Everyone thinks thier tools are the best so I always keep that in mind. I mostly view meds for non psychotic/bipolar/adhd dx as either a bridge until the client can begin to integrate therapy into their life or not necessary because therapy works. But a surgeon will almost always opt for surgery, the oncologist almost always opt.for chemo etc to take that with that perspective. There is no one way to heal

Ehud posted:Great info ty! Also I would encourage you to talk to your therapist about what fulfills you and what it might look like to live your values in your current situation and if you got a job.you felt more fulfilled in. It is a gigantic misnomer that you MUST HAVE fulfillment in your money making job. A lie we've been told since childhood that we are our job and the work you do for money must be Uber fulfilling. It's also OK to work something that is unfulfilled per se to support what does actually fulfill you. It can certainly.make that work easier when you connect the two

Today I'm starting a new job after being laid off I'm January(kust a 4 hour training today on the EHR). Longest time I've been out of work in my career. But I've treasured the time with my family. We've been calling it "paternity leave 2.0" since I did 2 months of paternity leave when my 2nd was born in September of last year. It's amazing how different my relationship is with my sooon to be 8 month old compared to her sister at the same age where i didn't get as much time due to working. It's all smiles and love from the baby and not very much momma preference compared to the first. It's loving criminal how the US doesn't give parents and children time to bond. God drat barbaric as I have lived the two realities and I've only had 6 months of time with the new one. Not even a year. My relationship with my 3.5 year old has also developed alot with me home 24/7 and she is gonna have a hard transition (already has entered to turbo cling mode as we've prepped her across last week). Ive also been in the gym a ton since being laid off and wanted to keep my gains. I ordered a 50-125 LBs Sandbag from a local place aanf when I went to pick it up yesterday they didn't have it. They apologized a lot and will ship it to me for free and they gave me a free lifting belt which I didn't have. I busted it out today for some deadlift and have never used a belt before. The belt is amazing and bracing heavy. I normally keep poo poo pretty light due to being tall with a long torso and bad knees but I slowly cranked it up today. Deadlifted 305 and the belt made it sooo easy (realitively) and my back isn't even screaming at me just a little healthy sore. Haven't lifted over 300 in any lift since before kids/30. Feeling pretty good for crushing it at 35. Anyway being laid off was a blessing and today was a reflective day. Hope everyone's day is going well.
