I am struggling today. I want relief from how low I feel today. I just want to go to the bar and turn it all off. I have 33 days or so.

Settling a debate- is it unethical to tell your confused, alcohol detox patient (who is violent and threatening staff over liquor) that the mix of apple juice and ginger ale you are handing them is angry orchard? Yes, the pt did calm down and laughed when he learned what his mocktale really was a few days later. Yes, this is a Wisconsin hospital.

Anyone here know of a good 🏳️‍🌈 therapist?

For those who are struggling during the holiday season: I finally had the courage to talk to my doctor about my depression and drinking problems. I don't know why I waited so long. Started crying in the first 5 minutes and felt immensely better after the session. There is no shame in looking for help. We can still be successful and strong and self-sufficient. Hang in there!

Hi! Have any here gone the natural cycle IVF route? What was your experience like? Did you have success in growing your family this way? Would you recommend it to others?

How much sleep are you guys getting during the week and what are some morning / night routines that have helped you be more rested?

Is a TRX sufficient for getting back into shape? I’ve definitely wasted these past two months but I probably won’t be going back to work until after July so I’ve got time to build a foundation once gyms open back up at a decent capacity

If you’ve had issues with BED, please share how you recovered, what has helped, etc. thank you.

I am a cashier and I was under the impression that we were still required to wear masks on a federal level. Is this not true?

Does anyone know if pwc employees still get a peloton discount?

Do people judge by the gym you go to? Like planet fitness vs blink vs equinox …

Say I had a “friend” who gained 15 Covid lbs but is still on dating apps with old pics. Is that considered catfishing? She’s not overweight, but not fit anymore. Still good looking...she suspects. Is it best to update the pics? Or get on a BBW dating app? Definite fear of rejection at meeting. Thank God I’m asking for a friend because this shits embarrassing to type.

Any recos for a therapist who:
- is in BK/manhattan
- takes Oxford Health
- is good for treating social anxiety
- is female (preferably but not a game changer)
?

We need to STOP glamorizing overworking. Please.

The absence of sleep, good diet, exercise, relaxation, and time with friends and family isn’t something to be applauded.

To many people wear their burnout as a badge of honor. It’s time to consider pivoting.

And it needs to change.

I am back to working in person and I can tell my impulsivity is impacting how some coworkers view me. They don’t know, but I wonder if people feel I am weird. I know I can’t please everyone but I want to be neurotypical masking at the very least for 9-10 hours a day (8 hrs plus lunch and a lil before & after work).

Folks who are into fitness, can you please suggest a good pair of walking and running shoes.

Does anyone worry about cauliflower ear or do you think it’s generally okay to have in consulting?

Terrifying scope of Capitol attack becoming clearer as Washington locks down for Biden's inauguration

I am currently a medical biller and coder that just graduated. I am currently in an entry level position because I am still studying to get certified. I will have a year's work of exp in July and will sign a contract for another year because my boss is training me in more I don't know.

I'm wondering what the pay is for someone in my position without certification. I live with family and want to afford to move out but I am single and only make $18/hr. Is that standard or am I being underpaid?

Thanks!

Going into my first weekend sober. Kind of nervous TBH. I know I can do because I've decided I'm going to do it, but I will definitely be feeling temptation. Wish me luck and share your coping strategies

Doing a new business "take potential new clients out for drinks" thing. Any advice on keeping my sobriety on the DL?

Any meetings for ad people in la? I find no one really understands how we work in normal aa meetings. They find it suspect when I’m at work till 10pm every night for 3 weeks.

At an in-office happy hour I once had a coworker shout out loud that she doesn’t trust people who do not drink upon discovering I had OJ in my champagne glass. #rude #IdidntGiveAfuck

Sober and Vegan a year and 4 months now. Feeling great and more creative than ever

What are your fav sober weekend activities?

AA meetings on or near campus?

Today we had an agency talent show. Last year I MC’d it while slamming whiskeys between acts. I got great reviews for my on the fly wit. This year I was asked to do it again... (cont.)

Dry January. Anyone have it turn into the kick off for a longer term plan? Considering this.

4 years sober today. So much to reflect on, not least of which how important it is to “get comfortable getting uncomfortable”. In my experience, it’s truly the only way forward.

Sending strength to you all 🖤

I can’t handle the networking thing sober.... I’ve been sober 4 years and I still find it incredibly difficult... also a young professional

Hey does anyone have suggestions for meetings in North Brooklyn/Williamsburg for a first timer ? Thanks so much in advance!

Hey! Heading to LA later this week for work. Will be with the team most of the time but hoping to sneak out to a late night or early morning meeting. Any recs? Staying in DTLA. Thanks! ❤️

Anyone read Quit Like a Women, by Holly Whitaker? Reading now and it’s making me consider extending dry January to 6 months, maybe a yr, or ever again...curious to hear if anyone else has read.

Hi! I had no idea this bowl existed until an Account Director at work told me about it today!!! I always thought I was the only sober one in this industry! Im so glad that there are more of you. 😅💓

I’m beefing up my LinkedIn profile and was like, “Ugh. It’s SO NOT FAIR that I can’t add my time doing service and working w sponsees in AA under Volunteers Experience!”#nohumility #willkeepcomingbac

Here in Brooklyn, the bishop closed all of the meetings in Catholic Churches. Not sure if that includes the rest of NY? Anyway, some groups have set Zoom meetings, a friend is hosting a small BB study
