I finally caved and tried HRT. Helped a ton with the brain fog. I still tire more easily than I did 10
years ago, but at least I feel like - and can *think* like - me again.

I’m starting and my psychiatrist is telling me my lack of focus is undiagnosed adhd and wants me to get testing. I wonder if it’s more brain fog.

If it’s just starting now you need a new psychiatrist. ADHD symptoms should show up at some point in childhood (or arguably adolescence/college). Executive function issues arising for the first time outside of that context should be assumed to have another cause. There are so many things besides ADHD that can cause difficulty concentrating, memory issues, etc.

Big ones that need to be ruled out

Menopause
Thyroid issues (hypothyroid)
Sleep issues including apnea (menopause can affect)
Prediabetes
Depression
Burnout/need a new job

Consider seeing a functional medicine doctor.

Post it notes and lists and not believing I will remember it later. I will not. I must write it down immediately.

Stop eating meat or meat related products which are not organic .If you eat meat know that is packed with all kinds of hormones that are making your brain foggy bc those who feed animals with those hormones don't want them to move ,those animals brain is foggy so what you eat you become
Also,check your thyroid levels,try antidoxants,walks in nature will make you feel good,take a cold shower for about 30 seconds to shock your immune system each time you take a shower
Listen to your body more bc the job that you do can find a replacement for your position the minute your mind and body won't be able to do the work they expect you to do
Health first everything else 2nd

Company unfairly allows some employees to WFH. Even contract employees WFH.

I am a Business Analyst
I worked in the same org for 5.5years and switched in march 2022. I was not allocated a project for 3 months hence changed the org and joined new in July 2022. Now its been 4 months and I am on bench here too with no project proposals coming in. Will it be a good option to go for another switch in comparatively secured organization considering current recession?

I am a graduating student who just got offered 65k for a solution analyst role at Deloitte USDC (Data Engineering Focus). From reading previous posts it seems to be a lot of negative thoughts surrounding the USDC, but straight out of college is this a good opportunity?

I'm looking to gain as much experience as possible out of college in an IT role and wondering what exit opportunities may be in place a year or two down the road if there is little/slow progression.

Any Advice?

6 months ago the woman I love left me after 6 years (pre McK) and I don’t think I’ll be able to recover. I absolutely love my job and it’s the only sense of comfort I have - but I finally realize that happiness truly come from factors outside professional success (atleast in my case)
Idk what makes it so difficult: we never fought, we had everything we ever wanted ($ wise), each family loved each other like their own- hope I eventually recover
