I just got certified to teach mental health direct care workers to talk people down and how to safely restrain people when they are still posing a threat to themselves and others and that’s a goal I set almost a decade ago and it’s really taking some time to set in that I actually did it. I went from spending 3 hours on a state hospital floor with my back locked up with EPS after getting twice the normal agitation meds to teaching in under 10 years. What the fuck.
