Does being at home make anyone else want to get hit by a bus?

I feel like I can’t tell my mother anything without her using it against me, & just can’t be myself. I’ve been living at home for 2 years and at least pre-pandemic I could go to work and have a personality but now that I’m working from home, I’m constantly acting and pretending.

Cant vent to friends w/our my parents accusing me of being disloyal, can’t talk in a work meeting w/out being criticized, can’t do anything right.

If at all, how do you guys manage romantic relationships in IB? It’s easier if your s/o is in the industry bc they have an innate understanding someone outside wouldn’t but I don’t think that means you have to find someone in the industry. Curious to hear some thoughts.

Does anyone get so anxious about work that they can’t eat? The thought of food just makes you want to puke? How to manage? Skipping meals/not eating for a day is unhealthy and will cause weight gain

How do I figure out spending with my SO? Initially I was paying for 90% of stuff (no actual bills, just going out). I talked to her and said we need to be more even. She was never proactive. She kind of got offended but we ended on a good note to split things. It went well for a couple weeks but now it's back to normal. She never takes out her card and only venmos me if I send her the request. She lets Venmos sit for weeks before paying them. I still let a lot of things slide.

My partner of 5 years ended our relationship last night. I’m shattered and feel absolutely sick, and I know the healing isn’t going to be easy. We were on the verge of an engagement and I was ready to spend the rest of my life with him.

I don’t know how to approach work during this time. I think I can get by, but I’m definitely not 100%. Should I talk to my boss about it? My team is close-knit and comfortable around each other, but I don’t know if it’s “appropriate.” What would you do?

How do I work 55-60 hour weeks and have 50 percent utilization?

How is the work life balance in biz ops? Currently have an offer but haven’t been able to really figure this out. I’m moving from consulting

Last year when Covid broke, I received a couple of interview calls but ignored them as I felt the organization kept me at work when other companies cut short their HR staff so I should be with them even if with no appraisal. But now, I was living in the fool's paradise when I am told to leave with no job offers in hand, car and home loan, dependent parents, expecting jobless spouse with a 3-year old kid.

I have offers from different organization, Could you please help me to decide which one would be great choice.

Got a message from a Bain recruiter looking for experienced hires to start q1. I'm very interested but cautious because they're looking for a speedy process...feels a little rushed. Anything to be concerned about that I don't know? Like could this just be an attempt to get huge app volume or can I assume there's actually a chance if they reached out? I'm at a boutique in a niche industry, so just unsure of what would have drawn him to my profile.

29 here almost 30. Glad this bowl has been created!

Hi there. 25 and living at home. Have enough saved up for a house but I’m in between possibly moving to a whole new place. I have never left home and the whole idea is daunting. Advice?

May not be correct bowl but my brother is home for holidays and my gosh this kid is so weird. Here’s the back story he always has a opinion no matter what you say and he fights with everyone (parents me grandparents) and he just talks in a very I’m smarter than you attitude and imo he seems very toxic. I know he doesn’t have many friends so I feel bad so I try being nice to him since he is my brother but man it’s hard cause he is so toxic. He just always raises his voice and is so undermining.
