There are several at my school who are clearly not taking it seriously. I've been staying in my room with the door closed, and avoiding them as much as humanly possible.

Less than a year before I can retire and not sure I can make it. The stress at home, work and with the aches and pains of my 54 year old body are taking their toll. I wake up every weekday and dread the coming 14 hour day. I live for the bliss of two days off on the weekend when I can attempt to just ignore everything until Monday morning.

My first therapy appointment tomorrow! I’ve never dealt with depression before having my second kid and my PPD was/is rough! Filling out the intake form I basically had to list out all the things I’ve dealt with - rape, mom issues, death in family during pandemic, kid hit by car, ppd, and a slew of over things… looking forward to working through these things over time, whatever that might look like.

Neither my husband nor I are good with change and when my husband and I went for the ultrasound he nervously asked "she's too sick to eat anything other than her vitamins and water, is it ok for her and the baby to go without?" Our doctor just smiled and replied "don't worry, baby takes" I don't know why but that was so funny to us. It kind of became our mantra as we navigate and move our life around that "baby takes," its made it feel more Us vs Change rather than Me vs Him. Thought I'd share

Is it sad that I want to take mental health leave desperately but am worried if I leave in the next month I’ll screw over my team who is already short staffed and has a huge case that’s going to trial at the end of the month?

Hey all,

My baby is measuring very big but doesn't seem to be coming on her own, so doctor wants to induce around my due date (I'm 39 weeks pregnant now).

Any risk factors I should take into consideration? Things I should make sure to bring up with my doctor ahead of time? This is my first baby.

Curious...has anyone signed up for the AICPA life insurance? I recently did, and they are sending a doctor to my home for the health check. It seems weird that I wouldn’t go to a doctors office. Let me know if you’ve done this and what to expect.

I’m starting to see my bf as emotional baggage and feeling very claustrophobic. He’s intimidated by my job, he can’t stand to listen to me talk about work even for 5 min; he’s started doing this thing being very insistent with pda and the harder he pushes … the more I just say “no.” I’m not a prop/toy/trophy/side piece/cheerleader/emotional anchor/house maid…. For free. I don’t mind pda. But I don’t like someone mackin’ all over me when it’s disingenuous and has nothing really to do with me.
