Covid-19 tapped out

Round 2 mutation: "tap me in."

The only thing I know for sure is, IF there is a significant mutation, we (the public) will be the last to hear it from the officials.

Could a cognitive behavioral therapist help me work through issues with imposter syndrome?

Anyone know where to find consistent, decent indoor pickup runs for basketball in the city? For post-covid obv, but wanted to start thinking about a gym that wouldn’t break the bank. Thanks!

Stress is causing a massive flare-up of racing thoughts recently. I feel like it's been at least a week or two since I last was able to completely clear my mind. And if it's not random stream-of-consciousness mess, it's music. Ever had a song stuck in your head? Because I've had one for four days now. Driving me nuts. Anyone else struggle with this/have a solution?

It’s hard to come across good news about India, but must agree that they have handled coronavirus quite well. As of last week, 1.6 million tests vs 6000 in US; full travel screening. Way to go!

Anyobe else doing ok then suddenly remember the gravity of the situation and have trouble focusing? I’m used to working at home so it doesn’t feel jarring... then I remember how many people are dying,

Anyone ever interview with a firm covid times and not have a video call? Second to final round and everything has just been a phone call so far.. seems little odd and it’s a f500 company

Did you do the NIPT? I just had my first prenatal appt and they scheduled me for the NIPT at 10 weeks. I’m a little nervous and anxious. Did anyone get it and got a false positive? Do you not recommend it? I wish I could ask family but we’re not telling anyone until the 12 weeks mark.

I truly believe it's time that face masks becomes as commonplace here as they are in Hong Kong. NYC is trying but I'm still seeing many people not using them. Especially friends in Texas tell me no one is.

It’s been 5 weeks and I haven’t gone a day or night without crying and feeling haunted by them. I can’t eat, can’t sleep, can’t produce quality work, can’t find joy in anything I previously loved. This is the worst physical and psychological pain I’ve ever experienced.

Had a really bad day 😞 I don’t know why I keep doing this to myself. Things will be going well and then out of nowhere I get blackout drunk. I am tired of feeling sick and anxious from drinking. I don’t really even want to drink sometimes but do it anyway. Blacked out last night, and still feel sick now. I’ve never shared with anyone that I have this problem, until I found this message board. I have so much anxiety that I won’t be able to get this under control. I feel isolated and sad.

My anxiety makes me good at my job. My incessant checking, and double checking, and analyzing has earned me praise, trust, and early promotions. Sometimes I wonder, if I were to take medication to give myself some relief, and to stop the panic attacks, would I be less productive? And then I wonder, do I value my own health so little? But I’m so validated by my performance...sad isn’t it? Hope I’m not alone.

For those taking gmat more than 1 time, did your scores improve in the second time? Got a 690 my first one a month ago and retaking this week but I find myself freaking out. My practice test has been 720-730, though the one this weekend dropped to 700 because i was freaking out with verbal. Any encouragement is strongly appreciated 😔😥

Any thoughts on Sidley's London office? How sharp elbowed are the associates and how much do partners genuinely try and help you develop a career? Bonus points if you can provide insight on how the corporate and finance departments work with specialists on transactional matters. As a final ask, are they genuinely into D&I and flexible working efforts or is this predominantly lip service? Thanks in advance!

Hi guys, yoe: 18; tech: Java j2ee cloud tech leadership..looking for Director level roles in Hyderabad in product companies. Cctc:55Lpa; What's ideal ctc to look for?

i think we have finally squeezed out all the happy-go-lucky advertisers from this bowl and digitally transformed it into a consultant and lawyer cesspool... mission accomplished

With all these political posts all I have to say is....Third Partyyyy!!!!

Looking for a home office chair…I need something really ergonomic/comfortable but given the visibility of the office in the house the wife wants something stylish. She keeps calling all my ideas ‘gamer chairs’ even though they’re definitely not. Anyone have any chairs they really like that may be worth looking at? I feel like I’ve looked everywhere (Steelcase, Herman Miller, humanscale, Haworth, xchair, etc).

Is anyone’s company offering to pay portion of your rent as home office expense? Especially if company is no longer paying for commercial office space?

Have an offer to start at Deloitte in July in Org Transformation consulting. If it doesn’t get pushed out because of the virus, is it a good time to switch firms in July? Concerned that layoffs may be imminent if I am so new to the firm. I will be coming in at the Consultant level if that matters.

The feeling when you put on a pair of jeans after two weeks wearing pjs at home....So tight!!!

What do people think of the British Royal Family? For those of us who grew up without ridiculous monarchies why do have to keep hearing about them in the news?

Best part about living alone during this pandemic, no need to wear pants!!!!!! I’m a free woman!!!!

I’m 23 and independent. Working full time and studying full time is taking a serious toll on my mental health. I’m always tired, unmotivated, depressed, sometimes angry at my life, and I don’t know what to do. I’m in my sophomore year. I also don’t work in the field that I’m studying (computer science) because I’m always rejected without an interview, which is another aggravating factor for me. It’s hard to have time to work on personal projects to make my portfolio more attractive.

I don't know about you, but this is the longest my husband and I have gone without getting into a argument. Forced to be together forces us to behave?

My wife and I just had our second child, and we have also been dealing with her cervical cancer diagnosis. It has been a stressful year, to say the least. I want to do something nice for her, but money is tight right now because of the cancer treatment costs, and her being on unpaid leave because of the cancer treatments. What is something low cost I can do that will be a nice “couples thing” so we can de-stress, but also make her feel special?

To take advantage of the next big economic downturn, should I set up a Robinhood or Charles Schwab account?

Very worried Trump might start another war with an irrelevant small country just to distract people from the fact that he is so incompetent. Dying in the hand of fellow human is worse than virus to me

Anyone with a backyard and over 1500sqft I don't want to hear you can't stay home. Sitting in a 500sqft walkup with three people and I can do it.
