As a Psychsurvivalist, I expect people to be people, no more and no less. I hope that the people I have worked with put what they learned to good use. I am just trying to help them along the way and I hope they do the same. I block DMs.

Can someone kindly tell me how the President can tell a crowd to its face that the people in it are stupid and they laugh and cheer. I don’t get it. What do they think he said? What do they think he meant?

Only thing Trump is really good at…Threatening.

Democracy Docket@democracydocket.com

NEW: Trump said he would punish D.C. if voters pick a progressive in next week's Democratic mayoral primary. "Maybe we'll take back Washington. Run it on a federal basis." His comment was a grave threat to the democratic process and residents' ability to govern local affairs.

It is wrong and criminal for government agents to kidnap someone, send them to die in a concentration camp, and disappear them, regardless of immigration status. But it's still worth noting she has a green card. The government doesn't even pretend this is about deporting undocumented people.

Today, we honor and remember Virginia Roberts Giuffre on the one-year anniversary of her passing. Her courage has allowed countless survivors to be seen, heard, and to be believed. Sending love to her family on this difficult day—and to all the survivors out there still on this journey for justice.❤️

Listen to THE PSYCHSURVIVALIST on @rss.com rss.com/podcasts/the...

rss.comTHE PSYCHSURVIVALIST | Podcast on RSS.comI received my doctorate in Counseling Psychology, have been licensed in New Mexico since 1991, with almost all of my practice in Clinical Psych. I worked inpatient in State Hospitals, in outpatient programs for the severely disabled mentally ill and at what was commonly known as the Albuquerque Jail, formally the Bernalillo County Detention Center, where I supervised counselors. I provided assessments for the State in criminal forensic cases, performed mental health Disability assessment interviews and wrote formal clinical reports, and later reviewed others' reports for Social Security assessing for accuracy and proper determination. Altogether, this amounted to thousands of cases.My most important preparation for what became my unexpected career came from growing up in a dysfunctional family, where I decided at 17 years old that my best alternative was homelessness. That experience brought me into daily contact with drug addicts, alcoholics, the mentally impaired, criminals, and others who, like me, couldn't see how they could make it in life. Many of these people were my friends. I still think about them, often fondly. Those relationships proved to be important in my training and subsequent practice.I accept people for who they are. I do not presume them to be either good or bad; I take them as they present themselves. I NEVER assume that I know them better than they know themselves. In that regard, I have never changed. I have been known to say, "I don't like people." The typical response is, "So, why did you become a psychologist?" And I reply, "I think their problems are interesting." If my work opens the possibility of improving a person's functioning and adaptability I am all in-no matter the severity of the case-as long as they want to do the work of therapy.Recognizing flaws and biases in people does not dehumanize them for me; it ennobles them. It reflects an understanding of what they have been through and what they may have endured, to reach the point where they commit themselves to enlarging their world. As a Psychsurvivalist, I expect people to be people, no more and no less. I hope that the people I have worked with put what they learned to good use. Any success is theirs not mine. I always appreciate and recognize their effort. I am just trying to help them along the way.

The Psychsurvivalist examines cases that help illustrate how to survive extreme threat with the self-possession to feel comfortable in our own skin. I examine both #psychology failures and successes and try to cut through the noise that gets in the way. #psychsurvival on YouTube, Apple podcasts

What is Psychsurvivalism? It is a #psychology podcast. Here are some early essentials of #Psychsurvivalism, that is, separating truth from lies especially when dealing with #attorneys, #politicians, and among #uniformedofficials. It is the mental work that needs to be done to protect yourself.

In his role and that the organization structure with the same staff would be preserved. Moreover, Trump didn’t like the purchase, which means to me that they are less likely to be bullied. Not the best situation, but acceptable to someone like me who grew up with the Lone Ranger…finis)

Charlie Kirk gets the flag lowered to half staff courtesy of Trump. But the National Guard member who would still be alive had she not been sent from West Virginia to DC by Trump, no lowering of flags, hardly an acknowledgement. More proof Trump hates the military.

2) We learned you were a legacy student with Princeton alumni parents. With that kind of background you would be the least likely to assess the academic plight of young people now. Frankly, I think you should get out in the world and do some real reporting to know what you are talking about.

If it hasn’t been obvious by now, it’s because people haven’t been paying attention. Trump sees the entire military as fodder whether at war internationally or domestically for his wealth and aggrandizement. The only law he accepts is the one that pays him.
