Less impostor feeling and anxiety than last week but more time to think because all my deliverables got in early

Have been on a local project hence things are great. Also manager on project is wonderful. My mood has been so much better and I realize that it’s too closely tied to my team mates and travel locations - not a great thing but it is what it is.

Hello, I currently have a job offer from a small consulting firm that doesn’t include an increase in pay from what I make now. I currently work for the govt as an Engineer.

I am on notice period with Tata Consultancy with 2 months remaining with an offer in hand where the joining date is just after notice period ends. Now, I got early release from current company and thus, I saved 2 months. But I want to use these 2 months for travelling, upskilling and looking for better offers instead of contacting the new company for early joining. So, if I join the new company after 2 months will this be considered as a 'gap' in my profile in the future and will it be harmful?

Does anyone here use Gympass? My company just partnered with them and I’m wondering what the experience is like and if anyone would recommend.

I’m on OPT working full time in consulting. Under my F-1 visa, am I allowed to collect income from my country if I have a gig there? e.g If I join a college prep academy in my country, am I allowed to accept payment from them into my US bank account (as in they do a wire transfer for my help)?
Thank you

Signs I’m getting old: I tripped and fell, and somehow partially tore my ACL. Have to figure out if I want surgery, and how to tell the team—at the very least, I’ll need a ton of PT. I’m a first year associate and the only woman on all of my teams, so I’m freaking out about how this is going to reflect on me. I know I’m overthinking this, health comes first, etc…but I’m still so scared to tell people.

Having trouble coping with betrayal and heartbreak from first relationship as a gay man. Ex lives in a city (town) that I’m staffed in long term (another 6 months). Flying in every week is so hard...

Has anyone dealt with parents that never listens to what you actually need? All I need is support and empathy, but they always hand me oranges when I ask (specifically for apples). They think they are doing their best to care for me. But when I explain that I’m not happy at work and all they do is shame me for not being strong or smart enough for it. They ignore me when I keep coming out to them as gay (had to do it multiple times), and still keeping asking me to get a bf. I’m so bottled and mad

Girlfriend is supposed to meet my parents this week for thanksgiving. But today she’s been going through such bad depression, she mentioned “not wanting to be here” over the phone multiple times. She’s been struggling lately. Is it okay for me to say that I don’t want her to meet them unless she’s feeling better. I told her It’s too heavy when she says stuff like that to me and I want to help. Idk what to say to her.

I just have to say that signing up for therapy (and finding my current therapist) was one of the best decisions I made in my life. I’m learning a lot about myself and how to live a happier life. I wish people could learn about these things without therapy. And I wish more people would be able to take advantage of counseling.

So my bipolar dad got declined for a mortgage because disability gets shut off in < 3 years when he turns 65. So now he wants me to co-sign for him. Between housing markets being up, my concerns over his money mgmt, and concerns over tying up my credit there’s no way I can say yes. He sold his house before being approved for the new one he put in for (against my advice). I know he won’t understand and will take this personally, and the family will probably take his side. Gonna be a long week…
