On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss:
- You distanced yourself from a randy shrink after his attempt at a romantic psychia-tryst. Now how do you ensure sure he's not similarly betraying the trust of others? [Thanks to clinical psychologist Dr. Erin Margolis for helping us with this one!]
- Is it worth it to try to convince your half-batty, Zionist mother in Israel to come back to the States when she firmly doesn't want to — especially when you both would be somewhat miserable with each other?
- Your girlfriend still lives with her emotionally abusive ex and their eight-year-old child, and she refuses your offer of financial assistance that would allow her to remove herself from this situation. Should you even be considering this a relationship?
- Should you continue discouraging your artist boyfriend from getting involved with NFT promoters who want to "help" him sell his work? This blockchain thing's all a scam, right?
- You're a teenager who's hardly hanging on after the loss of your father to alcoholism. You're a diagnosed autist floating between numbness and sheer sadness, but you don't trust therapy and there's no relief in sight. What can you do?
- A reminder from our very own audio engineer Jason Sanderson, who recently suffered the loss of his own father: Reach out to the ones you love today! It could be an email, a letter, a text message, a phone call — whatever form of communication you choose, take a moment to tell the people you care about what they mean to you!
