Smack about Harm.
Smack is a mini-podcast in which I try to tackle topics with common sense and logical reasoning, without bad intentions or ulterior motives. If a take happens to align with any political, religious or other kind of ideology, that is purely coincidental. It will inevitably upset someone, but please hear me out and remain civil.

Codependent no more (2023)
I did what I could, and I’m sorry that wasn’t enough.
I don’t need to prove all that I am made of.
You’re hurting, and I love you; I always will.
I have a right to be angry and to choose myself even still.
Wasn’t it so beautiful when our realities fused?
Happy to be entwined, I didn’t notice when we both felt used.
I would have pled and done anything to make it better.
While you lashed out or withheld out of uncontrollable anger.
Justifying my limitations, boundaries, and intentions, even if I shout,
Will do very little to appease the monstrosity of your doubt.
Enabling is as toxic as tearing someone down.
It’s something I’ve learned when learning how not to fawn.
It is up to us, a pair frozen in time,
To repair misalignments when we cannot rhyme.
Is it so idealistic to wish for a better ecosystem?
To grow alongside our hurt - our love - and our egoism?
Leaving is loving when one of us can’t repair.
By that, I mean, our capacity and willingness to share and not compare.
So, all I can wish for is for us to find peace.
Separate or together, I will never again let myself decease.
- Rose the artist formerly known as she her Pri

Not Invisible
Can you see me? I am everywhere. Why don’t you see me? When I look at you, You turn away I’m not invisible. Judi A Woods 4.5.24 What does it mean to be hidden homeless? That is, those whose accommodation is temporary or lacks security of tenure. Known as the “out of sight, out of mind”, populations experiencing hidden homelessness often find themselves couch surfing, staying with friends…

Fetishes and Paraphilias
Treating fetishes and paraphilias typically involves a combination of approaches, including therapy, education, and, in some cases, harm reduction strategies. It's important to recognize that not all fetishes or paraphilias need treatment, particularly if they are consensual, do not harm others, and do not lead to distress or impairment in one's life. However, if these interests or behaviours are causing distress, harm, or legal issues, seeking help is advisable. Here are steps to consider:
1.Therapy: Consult a therapist or counselor who specializes in sexual issues or sex therapy. They can provide a safe, non-judgmental space for you to discuss your feelings and behaviours.
2.Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT): CBT is often used to help individuals identify and manage unwanted sexual behaviours and fantasies. It can assist in recognizing triggers and developing strategies for control.
3.Medication: In some cases, medication may be prescribed to reduce the intensity of sexual fantasies or impulses, particularly if there are underlying mental health issues such as obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).
4.Support Groups: Joining a support group with individuals who share similar concerns can offer valuable insights, coping strategies, and a sense of community.
5.Education: Learning more about your fetish or paraphilia can help you understand it better, which can be a significant part of the treatment process.
6.Harm Reduction: If your fetish or paraphilia involves potentially harmful activities, consider harm reduction strategies to minimize risks and protect yourself and others.
7.Partner Involvement: If you are in a relationship, open and honest communication with your partner is vital. Discuss your interests and boundaries, and work together to find a common ground.
8.Legal Considerations: Be aware of the legal implications of certain behaviours, as some fetishes or paraphilias may cross legal boundaries. Consult with legal experts if needed.
9.Self-Acceptance: Recognize that having a fetish or paraphilia does not make you a bad person. Self-acceptance and self-compassion are important for mental well-being.
It's essential to remember that not all fetishes or paraphilias require treatment, and they can be a normal part of human sexual diversity. However, if your interests or behaviours are causing you distress or harm or negatively affecting your life or the lives of others, it's crucial to seek help from a qualified professional who can provide guidance and support
To get more information about fetishes and paraphilias, please do contact Dr. Rana’s Medical Hall. We are working as a one stop solution for all your sexual problems since 1960. Moreover, we have facilitates for both online consultation & direct consultation.

In light of more absolutely horrifying news, I’m feeling inclined to share this resource (thank you for posting @torontoafterdark). The link is available in my bio as well. If you need some guidance as to where to obtain test kits, detox centres, therapy (online or face to face), 12 step meetings, or other harm reduction and addictions services, I am well connected from a lifetime of personal experience so please dm me (***guaranteed 100% confidentiality*** I am not a medical professional, just someone who wants to put an end to these tragedies of beautiful young souls having their time cut way too short💔). It takes a village, please look out for each other. 🙏 #overdoseprevention #harmreduction #addictionawareness #recovery #nors #addictionresources #harmreductionsaveslives #harmreductionworks #harmreductionadvocate #testkit #testkits #hotline #staysafe #canada https://www.instagram.com/p/CpuxFmtgxNM/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

A rally to promote harm reduction held outside Alberta Health Services on February 21, 2023. The rally demanded an end to the "Alberta Model" of addiction recovery and for oversight of the unregulated addiction treatment industry. It was organized as a response to the Alberta Recovery Conference organized and sponsored by the controversial Last Door Recovery Society. -- #yeg #yegdt #HarmReduction #ableg #abpoli #abhealth #recovery #photojournalism #yegphotographer https://www.instagram.com/p/Co8QLtJPFiM/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
