OP you’re not alone. I’m working on truly trying to be happy by myself. It’s helping. I cooked a solo dinner this year for thanksgiving. Never roasted an entire bird myself and it came out great! Be thankful for the small things, one day at a time. You’ll find your person

Yale SOM (no $) or Johnson with a full ride? Goal is consulting (not MBB or bust but MBB is the target) in New York City. Will have to take out nearly full tuition loan for Yale.

Could also reapply this fall and add Tuck and Kellogg to the mix but unsure if it’s worth the risk as this fall may be very competitive.

On June 21, I had an interview with two managers to become an HR Coordinator. Everything went smoothly, and I got good feedback, so I moved on to the management round of interviews. The recruiter initially stated that I would go through two rounds; however, between June 22-June 23, there were really five rounds, and I am still awaiting the scheduling of one more interview, even though it is now July. I'm becoming frustrated at this point. I’m still actively interviewing with other companies.

Recently promoted. Managing 4 direct reports, which essentially means I’m managing an entire department (it’s small company). Offered a 10% increase, which according to my research is low. Also know for a fact that 2 peers were offered 15% right off the bat, even though I’m technically more senior than they are. Live in NYC, 8 years of experience at the company and in total (first job out of college). I’m being told that there is no chance of negotiating further. Am I being taken advantage of?

How do you deal with irrational anxiety whenever your boss is saying “hey let’s schedule 1:1, I’ve got a few things to discuss”? I’ve never had a bad performance rating before, quite the opposite I have received positive feedback. I also know 99% of the time this meeting is harmless and my anxiety has been proven wrong many times. But I’m still always on edge whenever this kind of meeting is scheduled. 😩

Also, yes I do go to therapy and have discussed this issue, but it hasn’t helped

Need advice. My roommate has anxiety/depression and has been experimenting with drugs like ketamine. He’s always been super chill but freaked out on me violently last week over something small and made me feel super unsafe (I think he was on drugs). Found a new place to move to but idk how to tell him because idk how to react. I want to tell him the day I’m leaving when the movers come but I feel like that might trigger him too. Thoughts? I’d be ending our joint lease, I can afford it, he cant.

My therapist just said he could no longer help me because I went back on social media to see what my ex has been up to when I said I wouldn’t. I don’t know why this is so wrong. I’m sorry that it’s taking me longer to heal and I’m not ready to let go.

Getting to the point where some days I completely shut down. Cry in the bathroom at work. Can’t do anything. Next day I can manage it all pretty well. Im under a tremendous amount of pressure (working 2+ roles) with no leadership and minimal help. I’m really good at hiding/covering up my emotions so I’m sure no one knows. I just can’t imagine going through this cycle much longer. Not emotionally stable enough to even think about interviewing.
