First day on adderall. I feel on fire! Like I am ready to run a marathon type of excitement! That said, I am talking so fast and my brain is going so fast.. i feel like a crazy person . I started at 10mg. Doctor wanted me to do 10mg 2x a day but definitely not. Any tips to look less crazy? Thanks !

Hi, sharks, I would like to know if there are some good hair growth clinics in Bangalore. I am losing my hair & also got hairless patches on my beard. Please provide your valuable suggestions. Looking for some genuine clinics & good results in my recovery.

Anyone know if tests are available in the DMV now?!?!?
Called my doc and the office said a few days ago they're only in the ER.

I’ve lost 70 pounds since the beginning of COVID (March 2020)! So proud of myself! I’ve never felt this great, physically and mentally!

When do you typically have your first ultrasound to determine if it's a viable pregnancy? And when did you get your first symptoms? 5 weeks today and I just feel tired. I'm worried but hoping for the best!

31 weeks & finally getting around to selecting a breast pump. Hoping to both breastfeed and pump for bottle feeds. Heard great things things about spectra and medela? Any reviews from mummas who have used them?

Week 6 and can hit very dizzy spells. Anyone else experience this? Is this the nausea side of morning sickness? I can’t even look at my screen let alone run a call

6w3d and have had manageable nausea for the past few days but since early this morning I have felt horrendous. The absolute sickest I have ever felt. I have thrown up hundreds of times in the past few hours and cannot keep down a bite of cracker or a drop of water. I have ordered b6 and unisom. Has anyone felt like this and have it quickly subside? Or should I expect to feel like this for a while? I have a work trip this week beginning Monday and there is no way I can go if I feel like this

It's really strange to me how radiation can both cause cancer (melanoma) and also be used to treat various cancers

Just when you think the depp-heard trial is dying down, they bring in this trippy, psycho psychiatrist 😂

At 8 weeks I’m so exhausted that I can barely function or think straight. Taking midday naps, shutting down early, but I have no energy to work beyond the bare minimum, and especially not for house chores. I feel so guilty but I just want to sleep even though there’s so much to do. Help.

Anyone ever dealt with eyebrow hair loss? Labs ruled out thyroid and the only advice the doctor gave me was to try a multivitamin and biotin.

when you get the vaccine are you good for life? Or do we have to get these every year like the flu shot?

Any recommendations for nice spas in the midtown area that offer couples massages? Budget about $150/person

My fit bit showed me that I’m sleeping less than 4.5 hours every night. Which is pretty accurate from when I go to sleep to when I wake up. Gotta love being a lawyer

In risk consulting/internal audit and I'm losing interest. I really want to look into deal advisory or accounting advisory. Any tips for trying to transition? Either internal or to another Big 4

I have joined Nagarro almost a year now as a senior architect. However, I see lot of issues here. The company is great so far as employee friendliness is concerned. It may be rated as the top most company in that regard and that is why attrition is well within control. However, there are issues:

1. Project Allocation - allocated to projects without fitment with the role or skills. No internal job portal

2. Lots of seniors in bench for long time

3. No way to give company feedback

Does it make sense to go thru mckinsey problem solving test PDFs to prepare for the quant section of McKinsey case interviews? MBA applying for FT position. I know we don’t have to do the PST but I wonder if it is good practice?

Police brutality contributed to the success of the civil rights protests. Black people had to use a play dead strategy against the police and essentially be the chew toys of K-9's because we understood that people discredit us if we're anything short of perfect. Now we're revisiting the same police brutality that made us cringe 50 yrs ago. But because the protests are majority non-black, there isn't that incentive, so people are fighting back when attacked, causing things to escalate severely

With President Trump embracing our Q movement in lieu of the mainstream RINO GOP, please can we FINALLY see Alex Jones take his rightful place in President Trump’s WH cabinet? Stop pandering to Mitch! 🇺🇸

I’m depressed. Nothing unique about my depression - I’m in big law, my career defines me, when I’m not working I can’t find the will to get off the couch, I’m sad or I’m numb…I know I’m the only one that can make a change to my life…I’m on antidepressants. Just extremely unmotivated and paralyzed. Self-help books are not for me, but I am curious - has anyone tried a guided depression/anxiety journal? Any recommendations if so? Or, if you have experienced the same, what steps did you take?

At what point is it too late to switch to a career in programming? I studied supply chain management in college, but more and more I find myself wishing I had done computer science. I have been working as a business analyst for almost a year now and am curious if that is a realistic career jump. I have no programming experience, but it just seems way more glamorous than supply chain consulting. Curious what your guys thoughts are/if anyone has made a similar jump.

I’ve suffered from workaholism for a long time. Thanks to a lot of great self help books and therapy, I’m no longer putting work on a pedestal and I’m spending a lot more time on self care and my marriage. But, unfortunately, I am now getting withdrawals, because my body is used to the daily adrenaline of throwing myself into work. It’s this terrible feeling of like anguish/unease in my gut, but I don’t have anything I’m worried about- it’s like my body wants to find something to worry about.

I really struggle with sharing any personal hardships with anyone, including my wife. Anyone else the same way? Why is it so hard to open up?

My firm is virtual - all work done remotely in home office unless on client site. Haven’t traveled since mid October. It’s driving me nuts. What do you recommend doing?

Chest pain from stress? Is that a real thing?

How do you guys deal with the politics of consulting? I have bad anxiety as it is, but it’s really wearing on me. I feel singled out in a lot of cases by colleagues who don’t have much tact (contd)

I am showing signs of clinical depression, constantly have the need to self medicate with weed, and my marriage is at its last steps. Wife already moved out “temporarily”. Feeling really lost.

Everyday I can’t seem to hit the required billable hours. I’m overwhelmed by emails and people asking me where an item is. I feel like I’m not good enough. I keep making mistakes I shouldn’t make at my level. I wish I could just quit so I wouldn’t have to be miserable everyday.

Does anyone get depressed on a sort of seasonal schedule? Not like SAD, but in cycles throughout the year that seem to track to the same time period each year.

I love spring and summer, but every March, my depression gets significantly worse for a few weeks. I usually have a second dip in August/September. I’ve yet to identify a trigger, only a pattern…

Which antidepressants other than Wellbutrin have zero negative impact on sexual performance? All SSRIs seem to suck in this area.

So, my timing isn't what it used to be. I left the firm in January after I had a real talk with myself and admitted that this was not what I wanted to do and was not at all good for my mental health.

My mom has brain cancer. She was diagnosed with glioblastoma last fall, had brain surgery, did a course of radiation, and is still on chemo. She’s starting a new treatment soon because prior treatment has not been as effective as her doctor hoped. I started at an ins. defense firm 3 mos. ago and I’m unhappy & always working. Don’t want to stay more than a year and a half, but I’m really worried that I’m missing out on valuable time with her and idk what to do. It’s been hard. Any advice?

My therapist just told me I'm depressed..do you ever feel like they tell you things you hear a lot or could have figured out on your own? Like take care of yourself, it's ok to feel such and such, etc. I'm still newer to therapy so wondering if that's the common experience? Do you ever have moments where you're like wow that actually is eye opening and I wouldn't have gotten that from reading self help books and websites etc?

I want to know if anyone else feels like I do: I’ve been on 3 projects (1.5 years) and don’t feel “liked” or valued. I try to authentically connect with others and do my best work on every project team, but nothing seems to work. Even more frustrating are consistently subpar performance reviews, which make me doubt myself and my intelligence/worth. I feel absolutely useless here and can’t operate from a deficit. It’s like I’m like a fish trying to be a bird. Please help, what should I do?
