Maybe they are focused on the more immediate problem? If you’re better now then there’s time to talk about it later.

I know I should be fine since my mom is trying to separate herself from the pain of my bro but I’m like... you worked so hard for him and won’t even talk to me about it like wtf dude :(

OP, I get it. That’s huge. I really think it should have been acknowledged too. It sucks that mental health is such a hard and uncomfortable subject to discuss. It is possible to give 100% to your brothers situation and acknowledge what you went through as well. Sending you good vibes & wishing your brother all the best.

Well he’s been suicidal for 10 years y’all so like... I get that it’s less immediate but acknowledgement would have meant so much to me and I’m hurt that it went unacknowledged by anyone :( I won’t say anyone but it’s just like ???

I’m fine right now... started my Big Girl Job last year, didn’t realize that I didn’t have a good mental health toolkit for it and became overwhelmed (and in a new city with none of my old friends to lean on). I still have bad days, but I’m going to be okay. Just super scary to live thru, but now I know that I can quit my job any day if I truly feel like I can’t make it!! (Something I was too overwhelmed to view as an option earlier) thanks for checking in ❤️❤️❤️

it probably shocked them too. give them space and throw as much love to your brother

“Previously suicidal” implies that you are no longer suicidal so they are probablt just focused on the one of their children that IS suicidal currently

How do you manage going back into public accounting as a first time mom? Our first kid is due this summer and I’ve been having conversations with my husband on plans for going back to work post-maternity leave. He is not in accounting and works ~35 hr weeks while I’ve been at 50-70 hr weeks (and enjoy my work). He is worried about my ability to be there for mom duties and also fully commit to work so curious on how other working moms have managed this - especially type A personalities. Thanks!

What should I pay special attention to? Any ideas what questions I should prepare and what would they appreciate from my side?
