After 12 rounds of me vs my adhd - its still a LOVE/HATE relationship. I conclude I’m in the wrong career as a result. I love being smart, excelling, having random super human skills. But my career/stalemate with my own mind makes me feel like I am the biggest loser fuck up ever. All the time. I 1000% understand why work isn’t working out. I empathize for all involved > they probs deserve. Thrilled to figure this out but OH F$CK this is gonna get BAD bad before it gets fixed. Commiserate?

What is a good shoe to wear in court for a M and F?

My parents are scared that something will happen to me if I join the military. How did you guys handle this?

Has anyone ever seen there being preferential treatment to the opposite sex in their workplace?

I’m applying to B schools and MBB / other jobs all together this year and wondering if mentioning that I’m LGBT and involved in my company’s Out network makes sense. Is that something that will looked upon favourably? Chance of it backfiring?

I never used to worry too much about needing to date someone all the time, but I moved to a new city a year ago and have had such a hard time making close friends that I feel like dating is my only source of interaction and I end up really upset when things don’t work out even if they weren’t that great, because I feel like I lost the hope of having a life. I feel pathetic and don’t want to latch on to assholes just to not feel alone, but I don’t know how to be okay with no friends or bf.

Did you ever disagree with your annual review submitted by your manager and is it a good idea to state that in the review before you sign. A paralegal doesn’t like being given instructions on projects and despite my attempt to be kind she still calls my manager to complain. He ended up setting up a call where both the paralegal and I had to give examples of what we did not like in the other. Months later we are working ok and I haven’t been told by my manager that she has called to complain.Exce

My husband and I are going through our 2nd cycle. He initially asked me to allow his sister to administer my injections because she’s a nurse and I refused. I don’t like depending on people when I am capable of doing things myself. This is taking an emotional toll on me already, but I don’t want him to feel like I’m refusing his help and excluding him from the process, because I won’t take his suggestion. How do I get him to understand?

Is it weird that I feel like I’m good friends and have a connection with people I meet online rather than people I know IRL?

Is there a problem with being quiet? People always call me on being quiet, but i just pick my spots to speak. I just make sure that when i do speak, that i say something interesting/smart.

I will say this I love working with the students . I love getting to know them . I smile to myself when I go to work . I still feel this way after last week being asked my three different people about doing something where I told them that I was not going to do. following day I was then ambushed by admin (where I have never felt more like nothing. Following this encounter with people in charge I had an anxiety attack. This was terrible and I have no trust . TAs are mistreated. Similar story?

Lateral associate question: when submitting my conflicts questionnaire to clear conflicts, do I need my firm’s prior approval of the disclosures I’m making? I’m not sure how this works…

26 and being pressured to get married and date by ethnic extend family and family. I’m out off by marriage because all I saw growing up was women talking about sacrifices. It sounds miserable. I also don’t want to have kids for that reason and I’m tired of being bloody asked. Tired of being offered prayers or whatever. It seems like hell

Anyone work at a midsize to big law firm in an office with no other Black people? If you do, how did you end up connecting well with your partners and colleagues?

Here 28 weeks pregnant and tired of hearing you would need to do this for better lactation, you would have sleepless nights. Can a new mother not figure out on her own with the right scientific knowledge ? Is it important to go by what your parents , in-laws or known ones tell you ?

Today my boss took away my reportees just because I backed them. He told me that they cannot have long lunch break as they are contracters . I disagree with him and he immediately told me that it would be better to assign them to a different manager. How can I raise this with Hr ?

Does anyone know if an iPad that hasn’t been backed up / used for 205 weeks is still useable? I stopped using mine but now my husband wants to use it when he works out since it’s bigger than an iPhone screen. I guess once he recharged it, he found out that it had been that long since it had been backed up.

Getting into the military helped my feeling of abandonment due to my father's absence. It sounds funny, but being in the military showed me another type of parenthood that I needed.

Was having a conversation with a fellow female friend which intrigued me. She is in her early 30’s, has been in relationships before but she decided that she wanted to be a virgin until she felt right (impacted by culture/upbringing). She says she feels very embarrassed about it lately while dating. I comforted her saying her sexuality is her choice and the right person with respect it. But it got me thinking, what is the truth and how can I help her better? Men please share your thoughts...?

Peeps my sister is going to start her first job soon in India and I want to gift her something special. Thinking of a customized pen but anything else that one can recommend?

People who hire: would you hire someone based on a Fishbowl post? Or, at the very least, might it influence your decision to reach out to them even if they weren’t openly soliciting?

I’m a female who lives with my SO. We’ve been dating for years and we fight a lot so it’s possible a breakup is near. Do you think it would be difficult to date while living with my ex as roommates in a 2br/2ba? We have a lease that’s not even halfway done. In other words, would a man be uninterested in a woman who’s living with her ex (but of course being appropriate after the breakup)?

Anyone know of open roles? Was recently laid off from Accenture Strategy due to COVID. 7 YOE total.

What are your favorite apps that encourage healthy lifestyle in your patients that might need changes in that area?

Hi all,

My boss makes jokes about me being from a different country whenever there is a work meeting or a gathering with coworkers, even though he knows where I am from. This usually occurs when I meet new work-related people or for example if I am in a situation that involves ethnic related subjects.

What is this? This is normal?

Stereotyping?
Racism?

The first time I ignored that, but now it has become a pattern and is bothering me now. I am south-American working in the UK.

Hi everyone,
I am in the last stages of an interview process and I really fucked up a 15-min talk with some on the team. I’ve already spoken with two collegues and it went very well, but this one I totally blew because I stuttered, was super nervous and could not answer the questions properly. Considering that I’m probably not a favourite for this one guy, what do you think my chances are for landing the job? Can I do something to “save” the situation?

Anybody have any experience with Citi’s Private Banking offering? My SO has a contact through her firm to open an account and we’re trying to figure out what the value-add is for a 30-something high-income but not (U)HNW couple.

How often do you guys run dishwashers? I’ve never used them until this week. I’ve been running it every other day, and I’m wondering if it actually saves more water.

How many of you in this country in employment based green card backlog ? How many of you know about s386 and how many of you are doing anything about it ? Just cribbing won’t get anyone anywhere- let’s see how many act and how many are just agnostic ?

Has anyone disclosed that they have adhd at work? Have their been any accommodations or real benefits to doing that? Seems like the work stays the same either way... and the stigma is tough.

Has anyone used Done or those other adhd services? How is it that keeping up with appointments and getting prescriptions filled for adhd is such a huge issue… the irony is just 🤦‍♀️

Remotest you hadn’t been diagnosed but you graduated college - you don’t have ADHD.
Do not try to relate to someone who has ADHD. Symptoms v disorder … you likely just have symptoms here and there. If you had the disorder, you wouldn’t have made it this far without knowing.

However, the meds are great, and good luck getting them!

Welp it’s Monday! Time to spend 2 hours reformatting my out of hand to-do list instead of everything I need to send in this week 😌

Just found out I’m getting promoted to manager at a Big 4. Yay! They have no idea how hard it was getting diagnosed with ADHD finally midway through this year and thinking I’d never make it. Jokes on them!

I was diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 12. My family did not opt to put me on medication. I illegally discovered Adderall in college. Worked incredible. Got diagnosed after college & after having been fired from my first job. Passed the CPA exams on Adderall. Went off of it again. I do everything well at my job except for attention to detail within my excel files & emails. Will taking ADHD medication really fix this? Does anyone else have this issue and was it resolved by taking medication?

Hi all,
I am at Big4 UK (London). Recently, I started to suspect myself to have Asperger’s. I haven’t seen a doctor yet and I haven’t been officially diagnosed. I was always understanding that something is not “normal” with me but I didn’t know about Asperger’s. Let’s assume I go to a doctor and officially been diagnosed. What are the pros/cons to disclose it to my employer? Can they fire me because of this? I am on visa in this country. That’s why don’t want to risk it at all. Thanks for help!
