I had an eating disorder in high school but recovered once I started college and was doing fine up until early this year. With working remotely and everything just frankly being chaotic, I’ve found myself slipping back into ED habits and have lost 20 pounds since March. On the plus side, I think I look great but know my weight loss wasn’t healthy. Can anyone else relate to this? And if so, how are you managing keeping your ED under control?

I'm seeing a meme float around on facebook today regarding VA payments for anthrax shot related issues if it came from the squalene laced lots the FDA identified. Any truth to it? I'm skeptical.

Any advice for how to decline travel? Partner is pushing for us to go but there is a delta variant and I want to be able to spend time with my family without worrying I’ll infect them. The team culture is quite toxic (these people berate each other daily) so I feel uncomfortable speaking up, but I really don’t see a good reason for going there to do work I can do from home.

Did Slalom ever have a covid vaccination policy in place, like a condition of employment? Thank you.

Hi Fishies. Im 31 yrs old,spouse 33 yrs old. We are going with IVF due to male factor. Today we got PGT results from CCRM Boston.

I work remote and I'm currently on the bench. I'm worried because my utilization is low...Im trying to learn new skills and sleepy during the day it makes it hard. I don't get sleepy until 3am because I'm wired/hyped up. I don't know what to do. Without the meds, I won't be able to get out of bed...

Drinking more during this. Was a way to unwind, to alleviate depression and exhaustion working late daily, nonstop weekends for months. Now worried by the stomach pains and how to stop myself.

Hy Team,
How easy for developers to get on-site opportunities being mobile app developer?

Hilton has the worst rewards program.

Nothing worse than an analyst who thinks they know everything and can't think big picture - neither can you take direction nor do you understand broader context around said comments

What about using 3 one-word sentences as a slogan? I feel like it’s super played out, but I get suggestions for it all the time. Can’t we do better than mashing together words from the crestive brief?

Does anyone know when the JS salary bumps occur?
I graduated in May 2020, but did not start working at my firm until September 2020. I’ll start my clerkship in June 2021 — will I start at JS-12 or JS-13? If I start at JS-12, will I ever bump up to JS-13?

Ketanji did not come to play! Came out of the gate ready to fight and turn these racist arguments on their heads. The way she was dropping 14th Amendment bombs on that man made me so happy. And this is only her first day. I just hope they protect her well.

Dear Men - Need your perspective.

From a financial standpoint in this market, which would be a better approach in Austin -

1. Buy a ~8-850k house that meets most of our ideal criteria (size, schools, interiors etc) to stay long term

2. Buy a ~5-550k house that’s not ideal with the plan of moving into an ideal home in 4-5 years when kid is ready for school.

anyone ready for AJ Brown to finally show out?

I’m riddled with anxiety and emotionally convinced that something bad is going to happen today. It feels like instinct mixed with dread. Does anyone else get this? How do you move past it?

Have been having really stressful and vivid dreams since quarantine started. A few dreams have even been insanely disturbing. I’m on Zoloft & Wellbutrin. Therapist thinks it’s not related to the meds. Anyone else experience this and got through it? CONT’D

Weekends are really tough when you're unemployed and job searching.

Any advice on dealing with an eating disorder in the workplace? Mine is taking over and my work is crumbling. I often can’t focus or remember anything from meetings or conversations because I havent..

Your secret weapon to deal with stress at the office?

I'm pretty sure I've been suffering from ADHD my entire life. As a POC, admitting anything that remotely sounds like a mental disease wasn't an option. Now that I'm a growntheir 35 year old man...

I live alone and work for myself. Having horrible productivity issues right now. Its a cycle of procrastination and shame. Horrible mindset to have while trying to “create”. Working out hasn’t helped

Struggling with identity now that I’ve finally, truly accepted depression/anxiety are medical conditions I need meds for. I love who I am on meds, but I hate feeling like that isn’t “the real me."

I'm unemployed and my lease is up soon and I have no idea what to do. I don't live near family and my dog has behavioral issues and I've never been so stressed before in my life.

Having one of the worst weeks of my life but my bosses would flip if I used a personal day. Meanwhile in the office I’m getting bitchy emails and attitude per usual. How does one deal / stay sane?

How do you deal with a boss that wants you to quit and is becoming increasingly more abusive. But you haven’t found a job yet and need this job financially.

Maybe this sounds privileged.. or plain dumb... I just got back from a really fun vacation and I’m sad! Guess i got the “back to real life” blues. How do I get back to my happy self!??

My agency is “casual”, but recently I’ve been getting legit picked on for my work attire. No inappropriate parts of me are exposed. I wear jeans&a t shirt or leggings&a t shirt every day (cont).

Love how i think... 'oooh haven’t been anxious in a while ’ then before bed I start to get anxious... 😩

Getting bullied by people way above my pay grade. Ended up working under a boss from an old shop who didn't like me then either. I have a gut feeling they trying to fire me or ruin me. What do I do?

I started a new job recently and then had my PTSD seriously triggered, plus a panic attack. Felt so on edge and low on emotional resources for over a week that I wasn’t myself and apparently really rubbed a few people the wrong way so I was called in for a talking to 😣. I let people know there were some personal things going on, but didn’t mention the PTSD—very unsure if that’s something to share, or if I’d be judged for it or... I don’t even know. Has anyone else dealt with PTSD and had it impact them at work, and how did you handle it?

I want to advance in my career, but I have no energy to do anything when I get home, even if it's an early day.

Anyone else feeling particularly out of whack the pst week or2 ? I feel out of touch and out of control; inspired but unmotivated, drinking and smoking a lot of pot ; anxious but not worried, insomnia
