You're doing science and you're still alive :D 🎵 🎉🎉

Also still kicking, despite Satan's great machinations.

Take it easy, we only get one body. And the refund policy is absolute shite, I have checked. See you round xx

I hear that. Just so you know, I could show up ANY TIME.

I need to tackle two documents that I'm up in my head about. They are a little bit loaded in terms of career "worth". Both Wednesday deadlines. One, I need to write some case studies demonstrating how I am a Legitimate Psychologist to a government health council. Two, I need to edit a paper so that I can send it to the Big Conference in Our Research Area, though it is unlikely to get in and the wait time to hear back is long, freezing the paper up for other submissions. However, feedback from that conference is good and it keeps the process moving with that particular paper. When something feels unlikely to pan out because of the absolutely frothing levels of industry competition, it can feel much harder to Do the Thing. I think I need a clinician and a researcher, respectively, to talk some sense into me about my track record.

Good. Same wavelength. I can't believe it took until today for me to learn that some forms of massage can have some similar effects to certain trauma reprocessing (subcortical) therapies. And like with EMDR etc, a trusting relationship with the practitioner increases the efficacy. I would wager consistency helps too for the same reason. Wild.
