As of late, my work related anxiety has reached new levels and it’s really starting to affect me mentally. I’m part of a great team; I’m trusted and supported, have a great track record, there are no issues, and have been no incidents. Regardless, my professional self perception and confidence is so rattled as of late, it’s almost like a paralysis at times. I realize there are much larger problems right now, but if anyone has any tips or advice to get over this, I am all ears. Thanks all!

You could be overwhelmed subconsciously. Since working from home for the last six months some days are just overwhelming. It’s ok to not be ok. I’ve learned to take a walk outside or listen to music and go back to work when I feel better. I hope this helps.

Appreciate that, thanks!

Have you taken FTO? Maybe take a day off just for yourself to do nothing...mental health day, relax, binge tv, go to a park...whatever will help you disconnect for a day or a few days.

Serious question: Why’d we have to migrate our network logins to FCB Health in addition to our emails? Couldn’t we have just started listing our emails as “@fcbhealth” but logging in as “@FCB”?

Can anyone give me honest feedback on what being a copywriter is like at FCB Health NY? I have an interview but looking on here all I see is *really* negative feedback, so I’m very apprehensive. Glassdoor has a lot of bad reviews too. I’m currently at a smaller agency and I like it, but getting the itch to move up in salary & have more opportunities to produce good work. Tempted by FCB for those reasons, but value work/life balance.

Do we get bonuses this year ?
