Has LinkedIn become Facebook disguised as a professional networking platform? I am inundated with political, religious and other messages that have no place on this platform and nothing to do with professional networking, yet LinkedIn feels no need to remind their members of its intended use.

My manager (female) stretched her legs during a 1:1 meeting and wrapped her legs around what she thought was a table leg. Turned out it was actually my ankle. I was shocked and didn’t know how to react, and before I knew it, it had been too long to awkwardly tell her. So I sat perfectly still the entire meeting. She never found out and I never spoke about it to her.

NOT A CONFESSION! SEEKING ADVICE HERE

I know therapy is useful. How do we get most out of our therapy sessions?
How do we track or monitor the progress with therapy?
(FYI - I have always been a nerdy kid pressurized by parents. I am finding it a little difficult to maintain and handle friendships. I have realized that dealing with emotions is important. My manager from previous company was toxic. I had a recent break up. My grandfather died last month. Recent events have taken a toll on me)

I'm struggling with the fact that I hate my job, I hate my husband, and I hate how I never seem to have a single moment to relax. Everything is always go go go and I just can not stand it.

I make good money, but to what extent is this worth it? Only to come home to a husband who puts in half the work in every aspect of life and has the audacity to literally be a grouch about everything.
I'm always labeled the happy, positive person and if they only knew how bad I just want to scream FUCK IT!

Work from home has been great for many reasons, but the confession part of this post is how much a loud, disorganized, chaotic environment raises my stress levels. I’ve realized that I can be so much more productive in a quiet home office. But I know some people like the “energy” of a corporate office.
