I need a pep talk. I dislike Work and cannot leave for two months. I’ve started to slack off, disengage, can’t focus..its giving me MORE anxiety instead of less. What should go through my head?

please please please take COVID seriously. A man who taught me and supported me for many years died yesterday from it and I had to watch him get buried today, it sucks so much.

Has anyone used collagen products? If so did it work/did you see results. If yes, also please let me know what kind 🥺

I’m a recent grad struggling to look after my health when I’m stuck in a cubicle 10+ hours a day. How do you juggle a healthy lifestyle with long hours at a desk?

Why are people not good at ending zoom calls? I feel like I’m always the person who throws in the closing statement (I.e, ok well sounds good is that all? Have a nice day! This was helpful thanks Karyn..looks like we’re at top of the hour already) 🤦🏻‍♀️

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

To the struggling healthcare student. It’s okay to struggle and not know stuff. Sincerely your friendly neighborhood physical therapist.

I just found out my new coworker has ADHD. While that doesn’t bother me, I have never worked with someone with ADHD. Anyone have any suggestions for me?

I’m around 21 weeks and have been dealing with a lot of leg, tailbone, back, and general muscle pain. Since I do work long hours Monday- Wednesday (10hr +) I’m trying find a comfortable chair to switch to. Any recommendations? Currently I’m switching every hour or so between my kneeling chair and standing.

a few weeks ago we had a super busy day with scripts and i think i went into ‘autopilot’ because i don’t remember it happening, but i handed out the wrong prescription to someone (before you get mad, i only started a few weeks ago and i’m a junior assistant), out of all people i could’ve given the wrong medication to, it was a blind person. i have severe anxiety already and want to know some tactics to go back to work without guilt? i take guilt very heavy and struggle to get past it all

Zoom meetings have been fantastic. I can highly recommend my home group SOS. 7:30 daily. Great way to get grounded as you start your day.

Does anybody else think that the Wharton Slack & Discord groups are kinda quiet/inactive compared to admit groups from other schools?

Working to muster the courage to take the first pill of Lexapro (generic). How was the first weeks for you? I have a very intense project on the go and worried it'll impact my cognitive function and ability to perform (nausea etc..)

It's my first month in a new job as Product Owner. I went from a company that digital product development was their secondary focus along with consultancy services, to a company that their only focus is the product. The difference in scale as well as the different domain, certainly feeds into my imposter syndrome. What are the things I should focus to achieve within my first few months at the new job?

Loving the Knekkerbrod, a Norwegian wholegrain crispbread that I recently found at Costco.

Is this what my 30s are going to be like? Excited about new Costco finds? Not that I'm complaining :)

Wish I could just stay asleep for the rest of my life

I have not been brought up religious but I am beginning to think, I’d like to have faith in something. Doesn’t need to be dogmatic, but having a foundational belief in good things to come is probably essential and for someone like me who needs to work so hard to be happy, I wonder if being a part of a spiritual group can help. Does anyone have recommendations for what I can look into? I get there are many churches but has something helped you guys?

Anyone here have severe lower back pain due to depression or other mental stressors?
Had many X-rays, MRIs, etc and they find anything.
A specialist told me it’s most likely psychological.
How do you manage?

Anyone else spending Thanksgiving weekend alone?

My anxiety has been at bay after changing my job and just feeling like I HAVE control over my life. But now it's back because I feel like I'm behind in other aspects of my life (I.e dating). I have so many friends getting engaged and I just feel... anxious since I am SO single. I'm 27, and I know I'm at that age where people do but it just sucks. I've been on the apps too and it's just... more demotivating honestly than anything else

I feel like I need a good cry

How do you guys deal with just the really bad days? One small thing happens and it seems as if everything is terrible. I have bad anxiety and suck at compartmentalizing everything. Would love advice.

I’ve been going through it this month. Was on Buspirone for 4 weeks which caused a n of depression. Now I just started Zoloft and I’m feeling extra anxious and hypersensitive. One of my colleagues made fun of an idea I suggested and I’m taking it way more seriously than I should. How did your journey go to get on meds and adjust to them? I hate feeling so up and down.

Any tips for stress/anxiety before an exam? Taking the GRE next saturday

Has anyone dealt with a therapist not being able to see you (virtually) while you are temporarily located in another state? I’m struggling with coordinating my work and when I’ll be in my home state with my sessions because apparently I can only be seen when I’m physically in my home state. Are there different types of lisences I should look for that would allow someone to treat me while traveling? It’s all very confusing…

Constantly homesick, has been going on since I moved. Any tips to help get over it?

Does anyone have any advice on how to convince yourself life is worth it when you think it’s not. I’m a 28 year guy, just got laid off from my job, have aspergers, have no friends, can’t find a gf, why do I even try anymore at anything

I’m 8 months into a new job and I want to quit already. Uughhhh. My boss I’m leaning is deceptive and very political. This sucks

Anyone around who I can vent to?

News about Demi Lovato’s overdose is really devastating. Just goes to show that you can be successful with access to the best healthcare and resources but mental illness doesn’t discriminate

Losing my self esteem and self confidence that I am not able to recognize humans. Anyone can come I my life , fool me and screw up my life, ruin it. Upset about why I’m emotional person.
