I think I just have an aversion doing strategic work since the last time in my previous job my work was torn apart. Now anytime I work on strategic projects it gives me anxiety. Today my manager asked a simple question but it still gave me a surge of anxiety. I know I need to overcome it. It’s times like this that make me think I should quit my job or find something that’s more operational.

Anyone looking to hire an entry level accountant position with no experience?

It’s been difficult to get a job around here.

What I have:
- Bachelors in Accounting
- Starting Masters in Accounting in January 2023

Some Business Intelligence/Analyst roles are very data heavy. I wonder why these roles do not have the term “data” in them, and wonder if it’s to keep the salary lower than it should be. I have colleagues doing intense data science tasks as BI Analysts, and can’t help but feel indignant on their behalf because when hearing their job title, one would underestimate their technical ability.

If you've been struggling with depression and anxiety to the point you need therapy and medication, do you think it's best to share this with close workers?

Sometimes I get overwhelmed at work due to these issues. Could mentioning these problems backfire?

What are your thoughts on this?

Took my first ever sick day today on account of my very poor and worsening mental health. Just could not bring myself to put in another 14 hour day with back to back meetings and constant activity. Felt very guilty but I honestly wish I could be more honest and actually share with my manager about why I took a day off.

For those also going through this, any tips on how you manage yourself day to day? What self talk tends to help?

I manage 2 physician practices and one is extremely toxic. To the point the dr sides with staff even when I am trying to make corrective actions when patient care is in jeopardy. My leadership is aware and knows I am keeping my distance from them. Just doing the necessary work to keep them producing. How do you handle this? It’s been extremely stressful and harmful to my ptsd anxiety and depression.

The voice of an outlook email notification gives me anxiety. Does anyone else feel this way or know how i can calm myself? This is a new feeling

Ordered a shroom grow kit and two kinds of spores. I've never taken them and always wanted to. Let's see if they do anything to rewire the brain like some people say!

How do you guys deal with the politics of consulting? I have bad anxiety as it is, but it’s really wearing on me. I feel singled out in a lot of cases by colleagues who don’t have much tact (contd)

How have you combated your fear of rejection? I fixate on such small things as when my friends, for example, reject plans I have made. This definitely makes me more averse to putting myself out there and makes me ruminate on past perceived failures, which are clearly not good for personal growth

I’ve had a bad case of work anxiety ever since I started a new job ~7 months ago. The adjustment was ROUGH. I was making mistake after mistake. I powered through and somehow got glowing reviews at year end, with people saying I’ve moved past that point.

I’m convinced I’ve only tricked people and sooner or later they’re gonna catch on. I have extremely bad Sunday scaries, I’m always fighting down my anxiety whenever a new ask comes through. I don’t know what to do.

Anyone watch the clock tick away and have this endless dread of the work day starting like me. When I wake up on weekdays I dread looking at the clock. During the day I mentally start counting down how much time is left on a 30 min break, on Sundays it’s a whole different story.

When it comes to therapy do I look up a place online and make an appointment or do I need some sort of referral? Not sure if I need to see a therapist or physiatrist really.

I have been having occasional very mild chest pain once in a while. Have had a generalized anxiety disorder for a while which is now pretty mild with therapy and exercise too. Wondering if the chest..
