Friends, I am a 23-year “veteran” of college English teaching. You can find that lady @heychey. I am also finishing my MSW-clinical April 29, 2022 (too soon and not soon enough). 1/n

“The root of people-pleasing is forced obedience. The more that you are forced to comply, the more you learn that people-pleasing is a safer tendency than the consequence you get if you do not comply.”

So, I spoke to people getting food at a food bank and here are some things I learned from those in need:
1. Everyone donates Kraft Mac and Cheese in the box. They can rarely use it because it needs milk and butter which is hard to get from regular food banks.
2. Boxed milk is a treasure, as kids need it for cereal which they also get a lot of.
3. Everyone donates pasta sauce and spaghetti noodles.
4. They cannot eat all the awesome canned veggies and soup unless you put a can opener in too or buy pop tops.
5. Oil is a luxury but needed for Rice a-Roni which they also get a lot of.
6. Spices or salt and pepper would be a real Christmas gift.
7. Tea bags and coffee make them feel like you care.
8. Sugar and flour are treats.
9. They fawn over fresh produce donated by farmers and grocery stores.
10. Seeds are cool in Spring and Summer because growing can be easy for some.
11. They rarely get fresh meat.
12. Tuna and crackers make a good lunch.
13. Hamburger Helper goes nowhere without ground beef.
14. They get lots of peanut butter and jelly but usually not sandwich bread.
15. Butter or margarine is nice too.
16. Eggs are a real commodity.
17. Cake mix and frosting makes it possible to make a child’s birthday cake.
18. Dishwashing detergent is very expensive and is always appreciated.
19. Feminine hygiene products are a luxury and women will cry over that.
20. Everyone loves Stove Top Stuffing.

In all the years I have donated food at the Holidays, I bought what I thought they wanted, but have never asked. I am glad I did. If you are helping a Family this Christmas, maybe this can help you tailor it more. It does for me!

@AskDrAnti0nette Yes, ma’am!!

[SagacityCounseling @SagacityCounsel]

@AskDrAnti0nette It became time to redirect my energies from a widespread “look, and learn to love humanity,” lens while teaching to a more niche “look, YOU are human and deserve all the good,” as a therapist. Specifically, for marginalized people. Also, systems often suck. You need to know this.

Reminder:

Black women do not be silent,

Do not be afraid to show up unapologetically,

Do not be afraid to speak,

Do not be afraid to ask for what you
need,

Do not shrink for this world.
