How does everyone here feel about preworkout? I used it for the first time yesterday and the energy kick is what I need to settle into a regular routine! But I don’t want to be dependent on it, supplement mfg can be sketchy, and it’s just another thing to add to my routine… thoughts to help me out?

Other than Equinox - what are your favorite Gympass perks/classes?

I’m gonna short the shit the out of Peloton, hopefully will get rich enough to buy one

Ive been using botox fairly consistently for 10 yrs and m happy with the results. However, for financial reasons Im thinking of taking a break for 12 months to save the extra money.

Also, any adfordable akincare products I should use during the 12 months?

I am in a period of growth in my role (in house and getting more exposure to top management) - im grateful for it but I also have constant anxiety during and after work hours. Does anyone who’s been in a similar position have tips for riding this wave? Hoping it’ll get easier.

It’s not changing in the last several years and it’s impacting our relationship. Anyone have experience with their SO dealing with untreated anxiety? I know I can’t control her but would like to express my feelings without sending her into a spiral. For context, I’ve been in therapy for 12 months and medicated

Just started medication - adderal helped but if I didn’t take it for a day the withdrawal was UNBEARABLE. On vyvanse now.. tbh feels like my brain fog started when I started meds?

I didn't apply for a job that would have set me up for the future in the government. I wouldn't have to worry about money or future jobs. My boss had just given me a small pay rise and talked up the future and so I felt good. I now severely regret not applying for the job and cannot stop thinking about it to the point of insomnia and depression. I even contacted the employer but too late. It's a small town and rarely anything comes up. I hate myself and feel like I failed my family. :(

Anyone here struggle with drinking enough water every day? Growing up, I drank a lot of soda and fruit juices but since 2020, I’ve been trying to be one of those people who always has a water bottle.

Hey. I was wondering, what are some jobs that you wouldn't take on the basis that you don't feel it's ethical? For me, I just would never work for a defense contractor or anything to do with the FBI, CIA, etc. I also don't ever plan on being a manager.
