How many points does this note from my (presumed alcoholic) mom get? I see some denial, deflection, ego, remorse... I harbor no resentment. Just sad. I didn't say a word about it today, not one word (progress for me) except when she started to tell me the same stories today "you told me that last night." She sent this note unprovoked. It was more than 4 drinks... I'd remember. I accept what I can't change. And she gets mean.

Can anyone describe Amazon’s culture for an associate corporate counsel,based on team? I’ve read a number of comments on this app and across the internet about the company in general but the individuals never specify what team they’re referring to. I’ve heard from two corp counsel that AWS doesn’t have the best WLB but Prime Video does. I’d be interested to hear what this bowl has to add. The more data points I can gather before interviewing, the better.

My ex got a puppy in fall of 2020. Due to the nature of the pandemic, I spent almost every day with him and taught him a lot of what he knows. We broke up at the end of 2021 and hang out every now and then but living without that dog is one of the saddest things ever.

My boyfriend has a list of rules to follow as life guidance. I recently disagree with one of them and suggested that it could lead to miscommunication. He claimed that I shouldn’t be insinuating that there’ll be a miscommunication until there’s one (there was one in my opinion but he didn’t realize) and I’m reading things too much. Did I do something wrong here? I didn’t mean to be judgmental but just want to tell him things I observed.

How much do Certified Medical Assistant make for Primary Care?

Hello Autodeskers,
I wanted to understand how RSUs work in your favour? I mean if I am getting rsus amounting to 40% of my package, and another company is matching the package with all fixed, should I still choose Autodesk package? How about selling them and taxation? Is it really beneficial or risky?

What do you do when you’re already on the precipice of a mental breakdown, doing as much as you can 11/day with 9 accounts because we’re down staff and your supervisor says: your permanence is lacking

I wanted to take a moment to thank everyone who shares in this group. It truly helps me stay sober. I am approaching 12 months sober but have been struggling lately. While I have not relapsed, I’ve been close. Normally, before I get out of bed, I write down my reason to stat sober for the day, but lately the reasons have been lousy at best. But reading about everyone’s struggles and successes has helped get me through this past month. So thank you all for the inspiration to keep going strong!

It's that time...🦃

Is Al Anon really helpful for spouses/children affected by alcoholism or other addictions? Does anyone have insight on this

Hi all. First time posting and I could really use some guidance and help. I’m at a point that I need/want to stop drinking permanently. (Continued below)

This time last year I knew I needed to stop drinking, but I couldn’t. This year, though, I’m putting my health first. Starting day 2 of sobriety and hope to keep it up. Thanks to this group for all the support and encouragement shown to those of us struggling with such powerful addictions.

My husband was sober for 8 days then relapsed. This is the longest stretch he's gone in probably 8 months. I can't describe the heartache. I can't describe the hopelessness. This disease is the devil

Trying to get my relationship with ADHD meds back under control.. the fear of going a day without is always alwayss worse than the day itself but the fear is nonetheless consuming :/

Been running on self-will for the duration of this lockdown. My reserves that I built up in this program are depleted. Thankfully I was able to attend a meeting this evening, and the topic was 3rd step. Funny how that happens. Good reminder that a life run on self-will can hardly be a success.

Just wanted to post an update. 68 weeks ago I posted about my drinking problems. It was bad. It’s been 8 months now without a single drink. I still can’t believe it. I still miss drinking. I’ve sat with coworkers and watched them drink. It’s not nearly as fun, but I am so thankful each morning I can hold my head up high. Will I drink again? I only said I would quit for 60 days. Can I have a beer? Some wine? A fine bourbon? I sometimes crave it. I guess there is the answer! You can all do this!

My last drink was me polishing off an expensive bottle of champagne on New Years. Tux on. In bed. It was a fitting farewell to booze. I’m thinking this could be a whole new thing for me. I’m certainly better off without it. I’m a bit worried about things opening up again. Parties. Travel. The roaring 20s. Got to keep up with the meditations and have plenty of proxies on hand.

Relapsed, damaged my car pretty badly. No one got hurt fortunately but I feel down and broken, again. Why can’t I stick with sobriety it’s killing me

I’ve been sober about 14 months, and now with things opening up more I’ve been going out to dinner, concerts etc with friends. I’ve been finding it hard to have fun, or not get restless while out. I think a large part of this is maybe I find the company around me boring? and they’re also all drinking. Maybe I just needed to write that out and vent to say, I’m bored! Maybe saying that out loud will help me get out of my comfort zone to find new activities that change my outlook.

I got a dui under the influence of alcohol a few months ago and fighting the case with my attorney. However, I am in the job market and afraid if I get an offer this will show up in my background check. How do I explain this to my potential employer if asked?
