How do ppl go through med transitions? I was having side effects so once again changing meds but this time I’m afraid it’s going to take some more time to know if the new one will help. I’m feeling the loss of support from the first med and struggling so bad.

Just throwing it out there -- medication transitions qualify for disability/FMLA leave if your doc will sign the paperwork.

Good to know. I work for a startup, I don’t have any STD sadly.

It’s definitely rough. Because while you’re getting used to a new medication, you’re also withdrawing from the old one. It usually takes me two weeks to get through all the side effects.

So i have been fortunate that i have managed to go through my career without the need for a degree. I was lucky enough to have been hired by one of the worlds top consulting firms, worked with a whole lot of big clients and travelled a lot. It's gotten to the point where I am not even asked about the lack of a degree on my resume. Personally though, it bothers me. I have a whole bunch of certifications in my industry…but just no formal degree. (cont'd)

I’m struggling. I left an agency I liked last year due to growth limitations and since then I’ve worked at 2 different agencies and can’t seem to find my footing. The first one seemed like a good fit at first but then it turned out to not be the best place for me so I left. At my current agency I feel super undervalued. I’m always raising my hand and offering to help where I can and no matter what I do, I don’t feel utilized or valued or part of the team.It’s really taken a toll on my confidence

Can anyone relate? If I’m stressed out, I can’t focus on my tasks because my productivity is driven by creative and explorative thought. When I’m stressed or anxious, my mind doesn’t have the room or space to think freely to get things done, and I end up bouncing around different tasks not getting anything done. And then there’s the whole dopamine addiction issue with doing a small amount of work then hopping on social media because you feel like you need the reward. Just me?
