I’ve had issues since high school, but just formally got diagnosed with ADHD. I’ve always managed to get by okay at work (I’m no super star), but remote meetings have been really difficult for me and I now feel like I’m barely hanging on. Trying meds now, but no benefits yet. Pros and Cons of disclosing the diagnosis to my team, partner, or firm? I’m torn.

Does anyone else get post pandemic “get back to normal” anxiety?? I want everyone to be healthy and happy and the suffering over Covid to end. But I can’t go back to “normal” life. I can’t go back to the life of an overflowing calendar being glorified. I feel like I’m sinking deep into an introvert lifestyle, which is not the bubbly, busy, and extroverted person people know me to be. But I’m scared of what the post pandemic social expectations will be and not being able to keep up.

I was a person who used to love to work. Then I started working crazy hours because of crazy project for almost a year. Felt burnt out and depressed. Took some time off (3 months) to calibrate myself. Now back at work but still feel so demotivated and cant help but feel work as a burden. Anyone feel the same?

A few months ago I completed final rounds for a product role I was very interested in. Never heard back from them. Took a new position that is conducive to WFH/remote. I am thinking of reaching out to the team again because I would be interested to work with them post-covid. However I don’t respect that they didn’t give me a final answer after providing work product, meeting with teams—even to let me know they had chosen another candidate or weren’t moving forward with hiring.

Has anyone tried DBT for anxiety? Just want to hear experiences and if/how it helped you.

a few weeks ago we had a super busy day with scripts and i think i went into ‘autopilot’ because i don’t remember it happening, but i handed out the wrong prescription to someone (before you get mad, i only started a few weeks ago and i’m a junior assistant), out of all people i could’ve given the wrong medication to, it was a blind person. i have severe anxiety already and want to know some tactics to go back to work without guilt? i take guilt very heavy and struggle to get past it all

Ahh noticed the recruiter I was working with got laid off. Now I feel like my resume and 3 rounds of interviews are in the trash. No clue who to reach out to now.

Where can I find new friends? I feel like my priorities are so different from them now. They are still in a hyper competitive rat race mindset. Every conversation is about finmemes or PE recruiting or how their date works at Wells instead of at Goldman. I’m the only one in a stable relationship and everyone I’ve set them up with they’ve turned down based up picture alone. They have been my friends all through college but I’m tired of how bitter and competitive they’ve become.

Do companies like Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan actually go through their hirevue video interviews? I read somewhere that it’s nearly impossible for hirevue interviews to get noticed because they’re scanned by AIs really critically.
In that case, How can I make my application stand out if I decide to apply to firms that use hirevue and have over 2000 applicants applying for the same role?
