Void - there are definitely still places in medicine where the root cause is addressed. I was referring to for example, someone having a mental health issue (not one where they have a predisposed genetic factor of course, that requires medication) and rather than trying to figure out what’s causing them to have imbalances and addressing the underlying issue, band-aiding with something that masks over the issue itself and makes it feel as if it was gone, but later realizing the core problem still presides.

let me ask--are you thinking of going to college, and think you need to pick a specific specialty or study to be good at it? because it's completely valid and even a very good thing for many people not to immediately go into school, and to just learn to navigate the "real" world and see if you find something that speaks to you. yes it can make it more difficult to go to school in some cases, but it can also offer a lot more maturity and experience to bring to a schooling scenario when you know you really want to do something

zrek - that's certainly a risk, of course, but all the therapists I've worked with I've been very lucky to have ones who deeply, genuinely care for the wellbeing of their patients, and make the system better as much they can from the inside. without good people in the systems, the systems will only ever be "bad"

...Although, in some cases, fixing the symptoms is literally just a matter of yeeting medicine at someone's head lmao because no therapy in the world is going to correct neurotransmitter issues

O_o no? That definitely doesn't align with medical practice since to 'fix the symptoms' it requires going to the root cause. It's why cognitive behavior therapy is one of the most popular types

Eve - I’ve thought about therapy but then considered the way clinics operate. I feel like I wouldn’t be able to help people because I’d be operating under the systems of the masses - once again instructed to only fix the symptoms and only use specific knowledge. Maybe if it was my own clinic. I just feel like it has a lot of the same corruption as medicine.

zrek - (lol yeah not surprised); even if it's not fixing society, it means the world to the person whose world you touch. and those butterfly effect ripples make all the difference in the end, even if we can't see the impacts and results

Social work can be many different things. You could work for a shelter, such a case manager/social worker. Counseling, Resident Support. Or you could get more into the medical field. My sister is a psychologist at a hospital. She did social work before that. She has a masters in psychology.

Gladius - (autocorrect wants to call you Gladys) thank you, it’s difficult not to treat it as if I am committing to my life’s work - the intensity of it all seems to make it that way. Sometimes I feel like even when I’m trying to do good in the spheres I know I’m only fixing the symptoms of a broken society rather than fixing it at the source. It’s rather draining and makes things feel hopeless. I hope things can change for the better faster than I assume.

honestly the most important thing: do good in the spheres you're part of now, where you have power and control to. we aren't all going to make massive change, but together we can get there with multitudes of little changes

"You don't like CAKE!" She froze before walking in the door. "What!!!!" She grabbed his arm "I can't believe it!" Her voice was not full of anger or anything frustrating... it was surprise. "Way to be different" she grinned before walking in the door. "Waaaaay to be different" she stopped at the counter and propped her arms up for a second. "Hello! What would you like?" The girl- same one from their past visits- snickered at Sophia's words. "That's my line!" The girl said. Sophia grinned and ordered her usual while getting Zephyr his plain ole coffee. She stood there, talking with the girl- Joselyn- for a little bit before grabbing her coffee and cake pop along with Zephyrs and sitting down with a wide smile

"Yeaaah. I'm like that. Different." Zephyr snorted, chuckling. "It's too sugary! Too sweet." He stated with a grin at her words. "What can I say. I'm unique." He snickered a little, hanging back slightly as she ordered everything then wandering over to the same table they usually sat at. He took his coffee with a smile of thanks, already sipping at it lightly. "Ffff... it's hotter than usual." He blew out it for a second before leaning back.

"Maybe it's because your not waiting for ten minutes like you usually do. Every time we end up talking about drawing you wait then you drink after I get silent" she smiled, proud of herself for noticing small details like that

Zephyr lifted his eyebrows slightly. "Thanks for the useful information, Miss Observative." He flashed a teasing smile. "Invitation to talk about drawing, accepted. So I've been- okay, ONCE I practiced drawing a horse and yes it did look more like a hippo but I need a tip of how to draw the top line " He said cheerfully. "Becauce the withers always get me confused. Drawing ain't my Strongsuit, but everything gets better with practice."

"I don't know. I'll draw one and you can try to copy it. I can't explain it well" Sophia jumped up and grabbed a napkin, drawing a rough sketch of a horse. "Here ya go" she handed him the doodles on napkin

Zephyr took the napkin after she was done and peered at it for a second before trying to copy the rough lines onto a different napkin. It didn't look great. Okay, it didn't even look good. But you could tell it was a ... an equine. It might be a zebra or donkey or horse, but at least it wasn't a tapir or something. "Okay. I think that helped the tiniest bit." He took a sip of his coffee b

Sophia smiled as he copied her work. "Atleast it kinda helped, right?" She asked. She took a small bite of her cake pop before glancing out the window. The sun was starting its decent even though it wasn't past 4pm yet.

Zephyr smiled slightly. "Yep." He answered, gently bumping her knee with his under the table as he almost finished his coffee. "Ready to go on that walk at the park yet?" He asked with twinkling eyes, glancing outside.

Sophia's leg buzzed when his leg brushed hers. +so I'm not the only one hitting my leg against his+ "yes. I am" she grinned and stood, tossing the stick to her cake pop in the trash and sipping her coffee. "I'm ready!" She walked beside him when they got outside

Zephyr finished his coffee and stood up, opening the door again and heading towards the park. He shifted slightly closer to Sophia so his fingers brushed hers, the same thing she had done to him. His fingers tingled but this time he liked the feeling. Accepted it.
