    @daniellethesheep I'm a medical social worker, getting my clinical license. I think the BEST thing we can do in a helping or medical profession is to take care of our minds and hearts (the body will follow once we get the other two in a good place). Therapy is a beautiful thing. In fact, I think going to a therapist is the responsible thing to do in this work. I usually work in hospice, but currently I am working with homeless Veterans. Both are heavy endeavors and require showing up as my best, healthiest self. It's ok to take care of yourself -- it is more than ok, it is beautiful and necessary. Please do!!! YOU are important and you can help others best when you help yourself first. Sending hugs and loving, healing energy your way.

    thanks for the support guys.

    @KnitOrMiss I do journal sometimes but it turns into just self loathing, I don't have any friends and barely have aquaintences, I'm not close with my family. I stayed back last year, so most of the classmates I had last year don't see me/talk to me anymore. I'm just being dramatic but my life kind of sucks rn and having my body look like this certainly isn't helping. I'm in a program for a healthcare profession, so seeing a psychologist on campus may jeopardize my eligibility to participate in my internship (as I may be deemed "psychologically incompetent" to make medical decisions for my patients. I'm just done with it all.

    @daniellethesheep

    Rather than continuing to clog up the check in thread, I'm starting a new one to continue this discussion. I'll add the link when it's posted... :)

    Sorry, I've been AWOL. I was sick with a bad cold again. I just had one the first week in November, and this one was worse. I lost count so will restart my streak later today.

    Hope everyone is doing well.
