I talked to the chair of psych at school and I guess it is to be a lifestyle counselor, where you help people with whatever they need to go in the right direction in life, to whatever agencies they might need, not a T, but more like a lifestyle coach. They provide all the training and I am told I will learn about all the different agencies in our area. I will find out more tomorrow. I guess the 3hrs a week for 10 week is for training.I guess this is where my age and life experience is a bonus compared to a young 20 something old.
The other thing she told me about was a job helping abused children in another county, but it would a lot more hours, so I told her that wouldn't work for me, too many hours right now. Well that is what I said which is partly true, but I know I am not ready to work with abused children right now, until I am desensitized from my own abuse.
Maybe this is what I need to feel good about myself, I know in studies done that people who volunteer are some of the most happy people with their lives. If feels good that people have such confidence in me, I just wish I had that within myself.
So tomorrow I have that interview, then I got to my doc appt. and talk about how increase in Prozac is only helping a little, then on to the big induction ceremony. How will I do it all, all I want to do today is stay in bed, even on such a beautiful spring day.
