Otherwise known as a Mental Health Worker, or someone who works with mentally and physically ill/abused children.

Though you are as the title says, do you find your job satisfying/rewarding?

Holkeye

Overall, absolutely.

More specifically, it depends on recent events. Some days I just want to tell a kid to stop being a little bitch, but others I am more therapeutic. Also, working 9 day stretches filled with double shifts isn't for everyone. I love those kids though, and the biggest reward is when it becomes apparent that a child is growing and learning, and you know you had a hand in that. One thing I've learned, however, is that you have to hold on to the good days, because sometimes they are few and far between.

Holkeye, why don't you post more pictures?

Also are you still drug free?

Nightwolf:
         They do, but surprisingly, you become quickly desensitized to most of it.

KotU:
         See the Post Your Picture Thread.
         I haven't had a drug in 9 months, but I've drank 2 or 3 times.

BoE:
         There are too many to list, but I'd have to say either Fight Club or Donnie Darko.
