Dude mentioned having manic depression (aka bipolar). This conversation seems very manic, so I’m not sure how effective this conversation will be for him. Best of luck that he’s able to approach it with a level head later

[@xxbeccabrutalityxx7873]

Right, the way he's talking and his priorities, plus how he also says he's very depressed. It's exactly what I'm like during a mixed episode. And mixed episodes are definitely a huge part of my current financial situation. I think he really needs to go to a therapist and psychiatrist if he's dx'ed bipolar. Otherwise it'll get more out of control, and seem impossible to get out of the hole he's digging. I can't think of why else fries and streaming is a higher priority than his son and the mother of his child.

Eats because he’s depressed yet the reason he’s depressed is because he’s eating out for every meal and can’t afford to pay bills.

[@BrandonWestfall]

I bet if you checked his DoorDash/Uber apps he’d have an assload of service fees as well. Don’t use these apps and if you can in fact afford to use them at least subscribe to their bullshit plans to reduce service fees.

Shits viscous. I can kinda relate but damn you got to make sacrifices

@@SimonCasfr. last winter I started DDing a ton and at one point I just sat back and thought ‘I’m paying double the price for food that’s lukewarm at best’ and I may have gotten it twice since. Only time I’ll ever use it now is if it’s lake on a weekend and I can get pizza, only thing that travels well

This young man needs to be on proper court ordered & supervised child support payment plan. The mother needs to make him assist on taking care of the child they both made.

“That’s why I’m here! You’re here to save me!” No my man, he’s here to show YOU how to save YOURSELF. That’s the real problem, thinking that no matter how bad he messes up somebody will come along and fix it without him growing at all or correcting any of the actions that led him here.

[@JBJB992]

Yes!!! I wish Caleb responded exactly with that.

[@maddiehags7104]

Yeah his “your here to save me” excitement was so cringe

[@tinyhousegamer]

fun fact - you can make nacho fries at home. I do it a lot. And do it multiple nights in a row sometimes!! Good luck to this guy, I hope he figures life out.

I left my house at 16 and was never taught financial literacy, but I understand the importance of being responsible. Some people are just full of excuses

Not everything is mental health some people are losers. We are throwing mental health around alot these days.

[@SixthSenseSynesthete]

Agreed, mental health is real but it can't be a crutch for every decision you've ever made.

[@ocastaneda14]

I agree with you

[@dahbaldguy]

Mental health is a part of everyone's life. It is the driving force of all of our decisions. Some have poor mental health and some people have good mental health. A lot of bad decisions of someone you deem to be a loser could be due to their poor mental health. Just the fact that you think of someone in a negative way or call them a loser could mean that you yourself have some issues that would indicate poor mental health.

[@viewtube51]

@dahbaldguy No, mental health is becoming a blanket statement that is being thrown around way too much. Can't go around committing atrocities, then throw your hands up and say ... well, mental health, yah know.

[@liannakeller2944]

Any time someone uses the words “pretty much” or “basically” when describing their profession, I immediately know they do not have the licensure for said profession. He is definitely a para or a certified behavior tech. He is NOT a behavioral therapist or a teacher

[@ToastbackWhale]

I can’t speak for this dude, but when I was a TMS tech, I either explain the entire pre-surgical work up process and my role in it, or I say “Basically, I shock your brain for a living.” I usually went with the latter unless the person was in an adjacent field (EEG, IOM, etc) or seemed interested.

[@user-lp2he1md6i]

Especially making $18 @ 29 years old. Man is pathetic

[@kakishisfriend1126]

I don't think that's fair to others

[@liannakeller2944]

To clarify, I am referring to describing their title or the actual profession. For example, a healthcare worker stating they are “basically a nurse” while not having that licensure. We’re not talking about describing your job duties. He said he was “basically a behavioral therapist”. This is an unbelievable and dangerous conflation of what his qualifications are.

[@liannakeller2944]

@@ToastbackWhalealso an example, you referred to yourself accurately as a TMS tech, not “basically a neurologist”. Cool job by the way!
