I have a friend who has bi polar but isn’t seeing anyone for it. They I’m broke up with their SO 2 weeks ago and are having a public meltdown on social media. I’ve tried to talk to them about it and they brush it off, saying they are embracing the mania. Recently they posted a video with a gun online to a small group of close friends. What can I do here? I don’t know their family or friends. This is a former colleague I was close with.

How do you deal with trying to live and establish a life of your own but also making sure to grateful and aware of the sacrifices your family has made to get you to where you are now?

Really not sure why I went to law school. I spent all that time and money earning the degree and getting licensed. I now go into work, and while I do enjoy what I do somewhat, I am always stressed and I cant sleep at night because I’m worried about messing something up. I look at my friends who aren’t attorneys and they not only have a much more lax workload and can have more fun during the week, they also make more money than I do. Why am I in this industry again?

Lol went to dinner at the inlaws. We recently got engaged after dating for over a decade. FIL waited until my SO and MIL were out of the room and said, "I have no idea why you two finally decided to do this, but for MILs sake, thank you"
I didn't realize we were still causing stress, but that was a very sweet moment.

I’ve been working to an unhealthy degree lately. And I’ve been making the excuse that I have a lot of work right now, but I’m starting to wonder if I’m addicted to it. Part of it is anxiety and perfectionism. But my behavior is now actively harmful to myself and starting to harm my marriage.

How do I stop? I’m not talking work-life balance. I mean, how do I say, “I don’t care that the client wants this tomorrow and I’m not close to done, I’m going to sleep tonight”?

Does anyone have experience relocating a semi-independent non-working elderly parent locally?
I’m looking to move my mom locally to take care of her in just over a year. She wants to live alone so I’m trying to figure out best options. So far im leaning towards buying her a small place so I don’t have to sink money into renting her a place and can at least get some equity. But would love perspective from others about best financial options for someone in my position

Relationship is going pretty well apart from my partner being pretty unhealthy… I like to eat clean in general but she doesn’t like veggies and I’m a little fearful for our future family if she’s just encouraging them to “eat what you feel like” is there anyway to help change this behaviour? Any suggestions? It’s not like I never go eat fast food or what not, just that our frequency of consuming desserts has increased exponentially after we started dating and she doesn’t exercise either

What to do if you have anxiety before starting a new project? I have done poorly on every project and my manager has told me that if I keep doing poorly, I might get put on a PIP soon.

When anxious, time seems to speed up which makes one perceive time constraints when tackling tasks.

When not anxious, an hour feels like eternity and sufficient time to knock out tasks.

What are your techniques to slow down time?

Mine is to meditate, pop a klonopin, and write in a journal. This 30 minute routine quiets the mind and removes distractions.

My SO is dealing with a terrible boss who has a history of firing people before their probation period. They have had some really terrible meetings recently and my SO thinks that their boss may be aiming to fire them since my SO is approaching their probation period deadline. Would you quit your job if you were in this situation or is it best to let the company terminate you?

I got promoted, but so did the other guy. We’re on a small team and all I can do is compare myself to him and obsess over what that conversation must have looked like. Who was closer? Who was better? Etc.

I know it’s dumb. We both got what we wanted and he’s AWESOME! It’s totally fair, but has anyone else struggled with this? Just checking.

I’m depressed. Nothing unique about my depression - I’m in big law, my career defines me, when I’m not working I can’t find the will to get off the couch, I’m sad or I’m numb…I know I’m the only one that can make a change to my life…I’m on antidepressants. Just extremely unmotivated and paralyzed. Self-help books are not for me, but I am curious - has anyone tried a guided depression/anxiety journal? Any recommendations if so? Or, if you have experienced the same, what steps did you take?

I just signed a job offer (after receiving 2 great offers) and am beginning to think I made the wrong decision. Has anyone ever experienced this?

How do you approach getting a doctor to back you up if you want to have the option to take medical leave? Work is taking a toll and exacerbating a chronic health issue I have. Scared to directly ask.
