Hi, Is it imapctful to have your picture on Microsoft Teams ?

I’ve been trying to look into anxiety group therapy or support groups in the Northern NJ/NYC area, but searching hasn’t come up with anything except for all female support groups. Are there any guys (or girls) on here that would be interested in starting one together? Maybe meet once a week on Zoom after work hours? Maybe we could find a therapist or a psych graduate student looking for extra cash that we could pool some money together for to lead discussions and whatnot? Just spitballing here.

I’m really struggling to pay attention in zoom meetings. I either end up surfing the internet or rearranging my desk or working on other tasks. I really want to just be present and listen to the presentation or meeting! UGH!! I try to ask relevant questions but I end up asking a question and then getting distracted my something else, then I’m worried if I ask another question or make a comment it will be about something I missed and everyone will know I wasn’t paying attention…

I'm a project manager at a F100 working on my first project, and in the middle of kickoff and the final stages of the project, I literally don't have anything on my schedule. I just sit in front of Slack all day and reach out to the team to make sure they're connected with the resources they need, and communicate with the client team when needed. Is that it as a PM? Not sure if I'm bored or grateful with the lack of workload, and if this is a BS job or my role is adding value here.
