Does anyone else feel like their anxiety levels are high? I feel like I have so much work but I just want to have a chill summer and relax before things pick up again in the fall. But it’s causing me anxiety knowing that I have so much to do.

My anxiety levels have been at an all time high ever since WFH started

like

Yes, I feel like we all really need a chill summer after such an intense busy season / extra projects that have resulted in long hours but with the offices so understaffed on the staff / senior levels the workload is so much higher on a per person basis. Had a fully staffed senior on my team get pulled onto another team because they don’t have enough seniors for walkthroughs… which is not a good sign for the next busy season

Yes. I've been so anxious lately juggling 5 projects where I'm the senior and the manager. I try to focus on what I need to do today. To-do list for the day. Blocking off time on my calendar to get things done. Putting in calendar reminders to send out XYZ or follow up with ABC.

Unfortunately when I get in this spot, I just don’t get as much done as I should because I just keep thinking about everything I have to do

Yup. I have found being super structured helps me get through-I make daily schedules and it keeps the anxiety lower

Yes. And I’m trying to cram in unused holidays and vacation time but so much to do I end up at my desk anyway

We at RSM have unlimited PTO. I never lose vacation days. I don't have any to lose!

Yes I get this too, but often there are a few key items that really need to get done that don’t require overtime. If I force myself to knock those out then I feel better. If I slack and don’t get them done then I feel really stressed and like I can’t take time off.

Same here. I feel like I have not had a slow day since we started WFH.

Highest they’ve ever been. And I don’t have anxiety

Girlfriend has very obvious high functioning anxiety and body image issues that she admits but thinks she doesn’t need therapy or medication and that reading self-help books will help her.

Maybe this is the socialist in me but shouldn’t Moderna and Pfizer waive their patent exclusivity for their Covid vaccines? Don’t we have a moral obligation for the world to vaccinate as many people as quickly as possible?

It blows my mind that many countries won’t be able to vaccinate most of their people until 2023. There should be access to vaccine generics

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 might have a spending problem. I don’t think (?) I have a full blown addiction, but I’m cleaning out my closet and finding stuff that is few years old, still with the tags on, and lots of duplicates. I get a dopamine hit when I find a good deal and I’m wondering if it’s going too far. I can pay my bills, but I’m wasting a lot of $$ on things I don’t need. I have multiple family members who are/were addicts and hoarders and my own behavior is making me nervous. Any other big shoppers out there?

First day of 30mg vyvanse today. Had a rush of energy and hyperfocus (too much so) about 2-4 hours in, but had a complete crash 5hrs after taking the pill (just a wave of fatigue, felt very good after a quick 15min nap actually) and not sure if it had any effect after. Is this normal? Should I stick it out for a few days or is this a big sign that I’m not on the right meds/dose? Nervous to keep trialling this during the workday since a midday crash is not ideal. Appreciate any advice!

Transactional associate. Lateraled 6 months ago and one of the biggest pain points has been my new firm’s inclination to “hop on a call”, which of course requires every single stakeholder to join. The end result being every call has 25 people on it and nothing actually gets done because no one wants to ask a question that could come off as silly. It’s destroying my ability to get anything done during the day. It’s a complete performance and it drives me nuts.
