Why expanding mental health services in Singapore is not as easy as getting more therapists to join the field

Some really interesting further reading tonight.... so you're not left wondering, the 3 common concerns are:
• What caused me/my partner to be kinky;
• Secrecy - what happens when you express your kink without your partner and don't tell them;
• How to navigate when one partner is into kink and one isn't, or when your kinks don't align

All these need different inner resources to navigate through them

I am so tired. My sleep is fucked for my course so I know I'll be tired AF, whatever times I sleep and wake, unless I get randomly lucky, which is possible.
It's annoying but otherwise fine. The DWP looms with their "make young people with symptoms work" bullshit, but the blade's not fallen yet.

With any luck, I can get work as an off-hours therapist. Like crisis lines, night shift standby, or similarly flaky clients who check my daily / weekly schedule forecast and call me up during my projected online-office hours.

honestly? I think I could do it. Only because being a therapist isn’t the same as being a social worker, friend, or coworker.

Depending on modality (especially Person-Centred / Humanistic), you can Socratic-Method someone in a guiding way, but you’re not reeeeally supposed to advise.
(I’m training, not qualified, mostly regurgitating this week’s topic notes.)

“Behavioural Experiments” in CBT is about (iirc, as NOT trained expert)
getting the person to first talk about the situation, then in any order:
notice their thoughts, feelings / emotions, bodily sensations, and behaviours.

I may vibe more with Psychodynamic (yes the freud one, no not the exact same, no not hypnotism, yes focused on how experiences inform inner monologue etc, I think).

.

I think Humanistic / Person-Centred is best suited for people who haven’t done much introspection yet, or haven’t felt empowered to fully explore their options.
(According to my class materials, this theory asserts that the client is the expert on their life and how to respond to situations.)

I think CBT is good for people who might know what they want but not how to get it, or need external structure, or have a discrete event or common situation they can’t resolve satisfiably.
(Class says both / all act as co-creators of meaning; I argue the counsellor is considered the expert, since they’re the one setting goals.)

.

I think (newer) Psychodynamics is better if you know what your daily challenges are, you’ve already depleted obvious responses and interventions, or you know you need dedicated time to unearth deep traumas or Complex PTSD.

For lurkers: c-PTSD doesn’t mean “interesting” or “harder”.
My definition is that the mistreatment
(anything beyond your ability to cope with what you had / knew at the time)
was repeated, often by a caregiver or someone with (real or perceived) authority, and with no reliable escape.

(InB4 someone says racism isn’t a mental illness, which is true!
But any definition of mental illness is socially or societal constructed and condoned.
Being gay was a mental illness within living memory.)

1/2 What seems hopeless today may seem clearer tomorrow, even if we cannot see the whole path forward - we only need to see the next step.

Becoming stronger emotionally, cognitively, physically, spiritually, financially or in any other way may take several years, especially if you have complicated life stuff that's all interconnected, like do many of us do.

A little while ago I wrote a post entitled What Is Normal? about my problems with anxiety since I tapered off the use of an anti-depressant At the time I promised an update, and here it is. I am also including some pictures of a hummingbird, just for fun, and I will be asking you for some movie recommendations.

Writing that blog post helped me to come to terms with my changing emotions, or at least to recognize what was happening. That, in turn, inspired me to make some decisions about how to get help or make some changes that would help.

After a couple of days of self-isolation, I arranged to meet a counsellor via video conference. Then I arranged to get an outdoor security camera installed. That may sound a bit odd, but it relates to a circumstance that I had not included in the previous blog post. There had been some people trespassing on both sides of my patio; on one side some neighbours moved out via the garden, and on the other side when someone tried to steal my lounger. The second incident was foiled by my motion-sensor light and by my opening the screen door to find out what the noise was. I still have the lounger but my sense of security took a beating.

As it turned out, the new camera was installed on the same day that I met with the counsellor. She was wonderful! I told her about the change in medication and my various over-reactions to things and people, and she gave me some excellent advice. In no particular order, here is the advice.

1. Talk to a pharmacist about tapering off or quitting the medication. (She was upset that I had not been given better advice on this by the doctor who recommended that I stop using it.)
2. Download a Brown Noise app to help overcome interrupted sleep.
3. Put a notepad by my bed and do a mid-night brain dump to short-circuit the random thoughts.
4. If I get up, restart my bed routine: toilet, wash, brush teeth, etc.
5. Reframe thoughts. “I will sleep well tonight.”
6. No screens before bed. Instead, relaxation exercises.
7. Avoid large busy supermarkets. Use a smaller local store instead.
8. Keep a solid or rigid routine. Focus on predictability.
9. Be mindful of emotions. Watch safe TV shows in comfort. Encourage myself to watch movies that make me cry or that make me laugh in the safe environment of home. I was unable to cry while on the medication, so I need to give myself an opportunity to experience that again.
10. Connect with people, let them know.
11. If I feel too much anxiety or my mood is too low, contact a doctor.
12. Consider using Mindshift App via AnxietyCanada.com

Here is what I have done so far:

1. I talked to a local pharmacist and he advised me to quit the medication altogether. I gave him my remaining pills.
2. The Brown Noise app really helped. I put it on when I woke in the night and used it instead of getting up and going online. I got the best night’s sleep I have had in months.
3. The notepad is in place but I have not yet used it.
4. I have not yet needed to re-use my bedtime routine in the middle of the night.
5. I did consciously reframe my thoughts a few times and it seemed to help.
6. I stopped using screens an hour before bed. I haven’t done any relaxation exercises. I’m not even sure what they would be.
7. My latest shopping list is for home delivery.
8. I think my daily routine is already quite predictable. I haven’t changed anything yet.
9. This is where you come in. Can you recommend a movie that will make me cry or laugh?
10. I am letting you know. No pressure! 🙂
11. I will call a tele-health doctor if I feel my mood is getting too low.
12. I downloaded the Anxiety Canada app, but that is as far as I went.

I have also made a point of trying to get out for a walk most days. Lately I have been getting out less because it has been very hot, but I’m more inclined to go for a walk when I have slept well.

I was in two minds about publishing that previous blog post because it felt as though I was divulging too much personal information, but now I’m glad that I did because I got some reassuring responses which helped a lot. Also, it helped me to think about my circumstances more clearly and that enabled me to get help.

So, now it’s your turn. Name a movie on Netflix, Crave, BritBox, or Prime that will make me cry in the comfort of my home.

As long term people may know my day job is being a counsellor. I've recently received some wonderful testimonials so I've updated my website.

I do have to charge and I can only work with clients in the UK (although I'm in the process of working towards being able to work with clients in Ireland too!)

However word of mouth is very important so please pass my details on.

Hey #bristol friends...

Does anyone know of a room for #rent which would suit a professional #Counsellor (Psychotheraputic Humanistic, to be precise?) on an hourly rate?

Would need to be private, clean, quiet etc - all of the things that you might image you'd appreciate if you were seeking #therapy

Any suggestions or pointers would be great!

Thinking of ditching #google mail, drive and calendar for #protonmail. I'm a #counsellor so privacy is part of the deal. It's true people tend to want confidentiality from friends, family and the workplace, not the state or corporations when they come for #counselling. Am I about to pay a monthly fee for something I don't need? It would be peace of mind for me, I'm not comfortable with big tech surveillance, but it's not like people come to small time counselling with big time secrets.

@riverthistle Welcome and I feel much the same. I’ve practically left #twitter with the rest of the #twittermigration and don’t miss it at all. I’m a big fan of #illustration and adore the work of #JonTurner I find #psychology fascinating although I’m not trained in that field and I am a trained #counsellor though very long ago. Good to meet you and here’s a cup of your favourite.

I’m a big fan of #illustration and adore the work of #JonTurner I find #psychology fascinating although I’m not trained in that field and I am a trained #counsellor though very long ago. Good to meet you and here’s a cup of your favourite.

#introduction
Hello again! I am a #not-so-tech-savy, #almostretired , #counsellor , who has been on another server since December after leaving wacky twitter-land.
Looking to connect with Canadians, prairie folk (Saskatchewan settler) and Saskatoon people. I love #nature, #photography, #gardening, #music, #traveling, #grandchildren #cdnpoli, #astronomy, #science, #books, #birds,#lakelife, #Grateful to be an #ally living on #Treaty6 and homeland of the Metis.
Appreciate any boosts as I restart!

Hey #Bristol folk - can you help?
(Esp if you are in #EmersonsGreen or #Fishponds)

My partner is a #psychotheraputic #humanistic #counsellor and looking for a room to rent, preferably by the hour (Emerson's Green, Downend or even Fishponds).

It would need to be in an official place of work (rather than someone's back room!). He does have his own insurance.

Can you #help? Do you have such a space or know anyone who does?

#ThankYou in advance!

Any ideological crank can (legally) call themselves a #psychologist or #counsellor in #Ireland, and many do. CORU will eventually regulate the title.

Until then, check for Psychological Society of Ireland (PSI) or Irish Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (IACP) membership. Full membership, not student, registration. Both organisations have position statements condemning #ConversionTherapy
