After being at a string of failed startups (one blew up after I left with no equity 😅) working on and paying for my degree all along the way, I have $40k in debt, $10k cash (after one year of saving post graduation), and make $120k total. I’m 40 next year and want to break the cycle, where the hell do I start? For reference, I want to travel and enjoy life but also want to have a solid savings. Probably my biggest issue is that I give zero f%*>s about money, it gives me very little value.

Recommendations for dancehall/soca/pole dance classes?

Hi, looking for some advice. I’ve been a medical assistant for 10 years, and am finishing up my bachelor’s in healthcare management. However finding hard looking for practice or office manager positions, as they’re looking for people with 3+ years of management experience. How can I get an organization to take the chance to invest in me and give me the opportunity to prove I have what it takes. We all have to start somewhere.

Is IBM India going to stop internet reimbursement from next month?

My younger brother (formerly estranged to me) reached out to reconcile. Fast forward, and he’s asked me to be his best man. My wife is pissed because my family have not been great to her recently, and me being the BM means we have to go to the wedding and she may have to sit alone with people she (rightly) hates. How do I fix this? Am I fucked no matter what I pick?

I love my job and the people I work with, but lately I've been feeling like everyone else has more flexibility in their schedules than I do. How do you find time for yourself when there's so many meetings?

Is all consulting at b4 (excluding monitor &) very audit-like? I’m losing my mind ensuring there’s a paper trail. Boring PMO taking notes about to go crazy

In a bit of an ethical dilemma. Got accepted into a 6 month rotation program within the firm. However, also plan on taking paternity leave at that end of the rotation. I understand company policy is to disclosure paternity leave two months prior. I have disclosed the desire for paternity leave to the rotation leadership but not to my leadership as fear they will not let me do the rotation. Any thoughts?

Best additions to your WFH setup? Standing desk, headphones, keyboard / mouse, etc. I’m back to working from home for foreseeable future…

I feel terrible todayyyyy. I’m pretty sure my Sinemet (L-dopa/carbidopa) medication for my neurological disorder is contributing to my already predisposed depression.

My therapist just told me I'm depressed..do you ever feel like they tell you things you hear a lot or could have figured out on your own? Like take care of yourself, it's ok to feel such and such, etc. I'm still newer to therapy so wondering if that's the common experience? Do you ever have moments where you're like wow that actually is eye opening and I wouldn't have gotten that from reading self help books and websites etc?

How do people stay in consulting so long?! I feel absolutely drained.

Had a complete mental breakdown on Friday, called and am in process of taking a 2 week LOA but feeling really guilty. Not really a question just needed to vent

Effing anxiety. Does it never go away? Mine comes and goes in cycles. I feel like I am doing fine one week, and then suddenly it arises and worsens and makes me want to end everything. And then I live like a walking corpse for a few days not able to feel anything coz I have given up on life. And then it gets better. Every few months. Is it going to be like this all my life?

I started a new job in industry 2 weeks ago and this morning I got a call from my lead for a Teams meeting. My heart jumped and I had an anxiety attack. I took the call and it was fine. I know these huge jumps of anxiety comes from the constant feeling from consulting when I felt like I wasn’t on the ball with my work and the talks my managers gave me on perception. How do I overcome this? My coworkers are my team and not my client but I still feel anxiety from things like this.

I wake up at 3 AM everyday for 2 years and can’t go back to sleep till 6 AM, I go a therapist, he listens but my condition hasn’t improved since a year. Any suggestions?

I’m 30 and have had very little experience with women. I’m very selective and theoretically know my self-worth, but in practice feel so inferior around women- like even if it’s someone I wouldn’t be..

Anyone have experience with coming off adderrall? I’ve been trying to switch to modafinil but don’t have the same level of focus while working.

I can barely sleep, average sleep hours- 4-5 max, with only 18-20% deep sleep. Am I gonna die soon?😂😂

does anyone else ever want to permanently disassociate with their immediate and extended family? we’ve never really gotten along smoothly and even in this time of my need (which is rare) they keep putting themselves first so i’m not exactly sure what’s the point of them being around since my quality of life is so much better without them.

Went to bed at midnight, sill awake at 6am; won't get any sleep and have job interview tomorrow morning. What to do?

Every week I have 1-2 sleepless nights and it's really killing me & my performance

I had a lot of trouble at work this year. Was depressed and had poor project experiences. So I wanted an exit and i got it. A good one.

I also got an offer from a more prestigious consulting company (won’t name it), which based on this year and also what everyone is telling me, would end poorly. I had always wanted to work at this place and applied many times over the last decade.

I know this is insanely privileged and I’m very fortunate. But I’m also sad to recognize my limitations.

How’s everyone doing on a scale of 1-10? I’m at a 2. Anxiety has been bad: running on 3-4 hrs of sleep and chest pains. Really worried about finances. Feeling like a failure.

Any recommendation of a good therapist in MA? Thanks!

Why am I scared and embarrassed to show affection towards my family, despite wanting to?

For example, sometimes I just want to hug my mom (I just graduated and still live at home) or even just say I Love You, but I Can't!

I have a really good relationship with my family so I don't understand why I can't just muster the courage to show affection?

I don't have any issues with showing affection to my SO...

Anyone have any ideas? Do I need a therapist?

The inability to come to terms with my mortality is crippling sometimes, I just get paralyzed with anxiety and fear. Anyone else experience? Is this normal?
