I use it and I think it’s good. Takes you through a session, asks you questions, has journaling exercises each session to identify, explore and challenge your emotions.

Yes I have the annual membership, I think it’s only $80 or something so totally worth it. The ap teaches you about CBT and the philosophies it’s based on, and allows you to keep a journal and tag each session (ie, self, career, family etc) so you can look at your entries and see patterns. I think CBT is very effective when practiced regularly and you see how a therapy session would work. So yes I think it’s a great place to start, reading stoicism is also a great way to practice CBT since that’s what it’s based on. If you want something more personalized then absolutely seek out a CBT therapist. But this is effective and accessible for day to day. For many people (maybe this doesn’t apply to you), therapy is not accessible. Either financially or because it takes so long to get a session. And you may not click with the first one and have to try several. So this is a good resource to get help right away.

Has anyone experienced difficulties with speech/thinking through taking anti-depressants or from suffering with long term depression? I first started noticing difficulties in articulating my thoughts at university and my career in consulting has only made this more prominent. I feel embarrassed, really depressed and incompetent because of this. This is one of the greatest anxieties I have regarding my performance and I find it is really effecting my development.

529 Plan VERSUS Prepaid

We live in Florida and currently have a Freshman in High School and a 16 month old. We hear from our friends and family with college bound children "I wish we would have done Florida PrePaid." After obviously ignoring this for years, we are finally trying to do it before "it's too late" for both children.

Does anyone have recommendations on which plan to go with for each child? I once did the pros and cons on a whiteboard and it seemed like 529 was better.

First day of 30mg vyvanse today. Had a rush of energy and hyperfocus (too much so) about 2-4 hours in, but had a complete crash 5hrs after taking the pill (just a wave of fatigue, felt very good after a quick 15min nap actually) and not sure if it had any effect after. Is this normal? Should I stick it out for a few days or is this a big sign that I’m not on the right meds/dose? Nervous to keep trialling this during the workday since a midday crash is not ideal. Appreciate any advice!

I had to think on the fly and quickly came up with a BrainPop for them. I’d like to find a few more music sites.

Advice and/or consolation anyone? My wife and I (both above average health 30year olds) were trying for 11 months before getting pregnant and then had a week 5 early miscarriage a few months back. If the stress and surprise of just how difficult it apparently is to get pregnant wasn’t enough, the miscarriage put us over. We got back to it and have been trying for the last 2 months again, still no luck. We’re freaking out… all we want is a family. Any similar stories? Advice? 😢

I’m totally empathetic to people that miss offices and traveling. I understand your reasons why, I truly do.

For me personally, after non-stop weekly travel for 4 straight years, not traveling has made me realize how much I enjoy being home. Spending time with family, sleeping in your own bed, consistent exercise schedule, etc.

I for one hope consulting becomes more of a hybrid travel model (i.e. travel 1-2x per month or as needed). Else it won’t be for me.

Anyways, just some thoughts.
