Confession - Haven’t made proper use of my kitchen in 2 weeks. Been on a terrible downward spiral of eating out/eating cereal. Finally broke the pattern (see succulent pieces of baked chicken as evidence). What’s the longest you all have gone without cooking a proper meal? 👀

My WLB improved since moving to consulting 2 years ago, and now I can’t imagine going days of eating out / microwave meals / drinking. Even just a few days/week of it gives me stomach aches. On trips I’ll make sure to mix in “good” food when we go out.

Like a month lol

Hey all!!
Hope you all are doing good.
Can someone share your thought of how to deal with this situation. I am completely lost in terms of my mental health. Not able to overcome and accept this situation. I think this is right place to ask, as we all are going through the same.

Anyone a manager? I’m recently diagnosed (26F) and I can’t help but beat myself up everytime I fall short of my to do list. Makes me feel like a huge disservice to my team. I’ve been trying vitamin D and working out, but it makes my “highs” and “low” SO extreme. The simplest things are so complex in my mind.

If anyone feels similar, how do you manage these feelings? I’m personally considering switching to an individual contributor role, but can’t help but feel like a disappointment if I do.

Just found out that my favorite aunt, who claimed I was her “favorite” niece, chose to leave all her valuables to her other two nieces who never visited or called her once in the last ten years. My aunt passed away suffering from cancer last year and didn’t have her own kids. I was there by her side throughout her battle. I still wish I had done more, made her life easier. I probably sound petty, but a part of me is forcing me to re-evaluate every interaction I ever had with her.
