I can’t function. I don’t have energy to do the smallest things. All I want to do is sleep. I don’t have to feel pain or deal with life when I sleep. I left my job because of this. I have a history of clinical depression and this is the worst episode I’ve ever experienced. I made an appointment with a therapist and to get on meds. Do I qualify for state disability even though I quit my job?

I’m a LCSW, have been working in mental health for 10 years, and have a job that enables HRSA to pay off my student loans. I really want to go back to medical school to be a psychiatrist. I’d like to pay my student loans off before taking on more debt but worry I will be way too old to go back since I already feel way too old at 38 to do it. Has anyone over the age of 35 gone back to med school? What were your challenges? Was it worth it?

What's causing me so much stress about work? How can I slow my heart down? Sunday PM is a nightmare walking into the week.

Please help!

1YOE medical device NPI Lead looking for salary perspective

Mechanical engineering grad, joined a medical device startup that I had done co-ops at. 8mo into full-time, pivoted from engineering into more of an operations role doing new product introduction (NPI), now with 3 direct reports.

The combination of startup+medical device+NPI seems very unique and I'm struggling to find salary comparables. Currently making 75k but it feels very low given my new responsibility and impact. Any advice?

Are there any remote positions for 30 years medical experience but only possess an Associates? Our office closed after 16 years and I’m not sure that I want to do Ultrasound anywhere else (believe me, the case load has severely increased since I started and I don’t want to injure my body this late in my career)… looking for suggestions of case managers, etc. (Thanks in advance!)

Has anyone ever tried a running coach? Did it help your times?

Anyone have therapists they would recommend that understand the ups and downs of startup life?

My confession is that I have seen the medical field change so much over the past 20 years, that it's unrecognizable in both good and bad ways. More people are leaving than staying, and I am worried the quality of care is dwindling. I try not to burden friends and family with some of the things I've seen recently, but the short version is that I'm no longer sure I have faith or trust in it myself.

Army Reserves/NG battles: 1)how many times per week do you work out? 2) any effective training advice for the new ACFT?

Hi! Does anyone have any pet insurance recs? My dog is 3 yo, healthy, small chihuahua/Boston terrier mix. He’s had surgery on one of his legs and now has a plate in there that the doctors say might bother him when he gets older. But not an issue for the foreseeable future. I’m looking for insurance that’ll cover routine checkups, bloodwork, other basics as well as in case of emergencies—surgeries, etc. TYIA!

Thinking about leaving Big 4 and going into internal audit (currently about to be a Senior in Assurance).

I like working on controls/SOX much more than substantive. I thought about switching internally to advisory and doing internal audit but not sure what the best move is.

I don’t see myself ever doing a technical accounting role or any financial accounting roles. Ideally I would like to transition to more business operations type of roles throughout my career. Any advice is appreciated!

One of my friends only talks about their SO in conversations. She's done this since they started dating three years ago. She steers the conversation to talk about random stuff he does that's not even interesting and our friends have no clue what's going on with her life, because we only hear about the guy. It's literally stuff like "Adam just got some coffee but was too tired to drink it so he's been watching tv for an hr." How do we ask her to stop? I usually just ignore the stories.

Anyone heard of GraphQL?

Looking for recruiting firms to help me find my next project / program management role.

Struggling to determine which firms can help with PM roles AND I'm struggling to get the ones I do find to respond to me. It may have something to do where I'm at in my career - 15+ years of PM experience & director-level roles at my last 2 companies - so more exec level but not quite C-Suite. Have tons of one-off recruiters hitting me up on LinkedIn about contract PM roles but that's not what I want.

Wondering about moving towards the path of Account Manager or Key Account Manager position with having a short track record behind me. Any suggestions?

Have been reading through M&I and WSO for about a year now (attempt at a bare minimum showing of engagement/background knowledge).

Just another meeting where I am one of two black people (other person was sort of ambiguous tbh) and the only female in a leadership meeting.

What would be some other next steps as some1 who works in ad ops (as a manager). I know I can move up 2 being an Associate Director but I hear growth overall in the field is limited.

Suggestions?

Been in bed with full blown panic attack all day 🙁 Struggling to even breath

Anyone willing to share their experience w Zoloft (starting, ending, if you had alcohol during, etc) ? May be starting medicine treatment for the first time and would love to learn about some personal experiences

Has anyone else struggled with chronic depression but been functional? Even with antidepressants I feel like I’ve been low-grade depressed for a few years, but on the outside appear fine to people

broke down to my gf yesterday morning - i’m just completely exhausted from the feeling of dread every single sunday, chest pains, shortness of breath. don’t know how much longer i can keep doing this

My fellow 🐠 that take Zoloft:
Have you had better results taking it during the day or at night, and why? (Been on it for over a month now and can’t decide which option seems to help more, and my doctor said taking it during either time is fine.) Thank you SO MUCH!!!!

How do I get better at handling positive feedback? Was told I did a great job and I immediately think the guy’s lying to my face so he doesn’t have to have an awkward conversation with me.

Does anyone know a good career coach or counselor.... I really need to talk with someone about my future. I really don’t think consulting is right for me given my bipolar disorder but Idk what to do

We got a puppy and I am losing my mind

Not having the right opportunities to nurture my ambition has made me Depressed/Sleepless/Social Anxiety. It is killing my spirits.. Looking for a therapist in ATL, any suggestions?

So how did you fix your depression?
What was the final solution that helped pull you out of that funk?
Was it a specific medicine? Therapy? A combination of?
I am working out and eating healthier, but still struggle with depression and anxiety.
I’m tired of the frequent thoughts of nothingness, the lack of any desire to do things, as well as the constant and immeasurable need for me to force myself to do things.
I just want to be happy.
I don’t want to ruminate on mistakes.
I want to be free.

Does anyone else get anxiety or want to SCREAM or bash their computer’s brains out when a new email or ping comes through? How do I get over this anxiousness and anger?

does anyone else ever want to permanently disassociate with their immediate and extended family? we’ve never really gotten along smoothly and even in this time of my need (which is rare) they keep putting themselves first so i’m not exactly sure what’s the point of them being around since my quality of life is so much better without them.

It just won’t stop. In life or at work. In the office it seems like I can’t get ahead and every day it’s some new catastrophe I have to deal with. Outside of work it’s the same. Just one thing after another. On top of that money issues don’t help. Just can’t seem to get to a place where I’m dictating the pace of life and not having it dictated to me.

I think my partner is making my eating disorder worse. It seems like he is very conscious of weight or at least looks, and I feel like he often tries to deter me from eating (like if I mention a late lunch he'll reply that we're having dinner soon so to hold off). I'm not sure if he is even aware of it, but he knows about my issues so it makes me wonder. My ED also runs rampant so it could be all in my head. Does anyone have experience dealing with this? I want to say something but not sure how.

Feeling depressed about the state of our society. So much hate and anger on all sides, even if justified it doesn’t bring us any closer to working toward a solution. I feel we are more polarized now than ever before. Feeling overwhelmed and hopeless

I accidentally overshared information about having anxiety and trouble focusing with someone who is kind of important at the company and now I regret it. She never responded and probably forgot about it but my husband told me that I shouldn’t have done that and I shouldn’t share things like that with people at work unless you are really close with them and now I’m freaking out and crying because I’m scared she will remember that and tell my boss or other higher up people.

How did you all find a therapist? It feels so overwhelming having so many options across the US (virtual) that I don’t even know where to start

What's causing me so much stress about work? How can I slow my heart down? Sunday PM is a nightmare walking into the week.
