Hi please feel free to Dm Me I just went through the same thing. It was really hard tbh but towards the end I think what helped is confessing to some close coworkers about what was going on so they could help unload some tasks from my plate. Another thing that helped is making a clear transition plan to move some tasks to others, and taking PTO before your leave can prep your team for your absence and pull some pressure away from you.

Has anyone just been feeling pretty sad and down these past few months? I’ve never really felt this way pre-pandemic but now no matter what I do (workout,talk to friends, yoga) I still feel waves of sadness. I live in a cold city with strict covid lockdowns so I know that that is contributing to my sadness but just wanted to see if anyone else feels like this and how you are coping? I also haven’t traveled or gone on many social outings since last March so Ik that is taking a toll on me as well

What are peoples opinions on work from home? It seems to be an unpopular opinion but as a junior I despise it.

I’ve never at all had mental health issues before but now am really starting to feel burnt out and anxious most of the time. What do you think?

Does it bother you when someone you care about won't let you treat them (like on special occasions such as birthdays and stuff)? I don't know why it's upsetting me so much, and I'm trying to figure out what the root of my issue is. I'm getting overly emotional about it. It makes me feel like I'm making it about me vs. them, which is not what I want to do at all. On the contrary, I want them to enjoy whatever I treat them to, but this is all backfiring because I can't control my emotions.
