How do you all schedule IEPs with parents ? Do you figure out what days you/admin/ subs are holding them, then send out the “time” you expect parents to show, or do you contact them and ask what days/ time blocks work for them?
At times,I feel it’s rude to just tell them a time, but some parents get so entitled-don’t want to use THEIR sick/vacay time to attend during school hours. SoTired of overtime as a SPED writing/holding ieps after contract hours though.What works best for you all?

I'm addicted to orange tic tacs. Also, if you buy the multi-flavor tic tacs, you're a psychopath.

Just discovering RSD after being diagnosed as an adult. I feel like SO MUCH of my life has been impacted by this and I just never had a name for it. At work if someone gives me negative or constructive feedback it can feel like a punch in the chest even if I know it's not personal. Makes romantic relationships so hard too. What do you do to handle it especially at work?

Now that masks are optional at many places in my area for vaccinated folks, I’ve been going out and about without one, including inside of businesses with this stated policy. However, I have seen literally 0 other people unmasked in some stores, and very few at the others. I’ve been getting a lot of mean glares as well. Any other fully vaxxed people in the same situation? 😷

That’s not always the case with places I have been to before. Anyways, loving it here and all the great people that live here! Shout out to y’all!!!

I find that some law firm recruiters are very on top of things and quick to respond and some never respond and even have a sour attitude. Can anyone speak what incentivizes internal recruiters to work hard to push placements thru. Would seem fair that if their isn't an incentive that they aren't compelled to go above and beyond

I have recently discovered great interest in transitioning into a communications role. With background as HR manager/director, the internal/people side will be a great fit.

Hi All, I’m thinking about getting certified in change management but not sure if I should go the Prosci route or CCMP route. CCMP is a lot cheaper compared to Prosci but would it measure up just the same?

I guess it would be similar to the discussion of the SHRM-SCP vs SPHR.

My daughter’s softball team was supposed to play in a tourney last weekend but there weren’t enough teams entered so it got cancelled. Another team in another tourney needed an extra player so I said my daughter could pick up with them which guaranteed her to play at least 5 games with them Sat-Sun. The coach of her team scheduled 1 scrimmage game for Sat and I told him she couldn’t make it because she was picking up. The tourney ended early on Sun so I took her to her team’s practice (cont’d)

We're all supposed to pool our tips but I'm pretty sure the waiters are keeping most of the money for themselves. I already told the manager and she kinda blew me off. Anyone else been through this?

Does anyone get depressed on a sort of seasonal schedule? Not like SAD, but in cycles throughout the year that seem to track to the same time period each year.

I love spring and summer, but every March, my depression gets significantly worse for a few weeks. I usually have a second dip in August/September. I’ve yet to identify a trigger, only a pattern…

I want to know if anyone else feels like I do: I’ve been on 3 projects (1.5 years) and don’t feel “liked” or valued. I try to authentically connect with others and do my best work on every project team, but nothing seems to work. Even more frustrating are consistently subpar performance reviews, which make me doubt myself and my intelligence/worth. I feel absolutely useless here and can’t operate from a deficit. It’s like I’m like a fish trying to be a bird. Please help, what should I do?

Has anyone been able to get prescribed anti-depressants during COVID? I’m struggling so much right but not sure how this will work out with telemedicine, etc. I don’t have a primary therapist.

Vyvanase VS. Adderall? I was prescribed Vyvanase for ADD as to not kick off Mania.

Is it weird to ask a therapist to introduce themselves to you or tell you about themselves? It seems a bit odd to me to spill all of my issues on someone I know nothing about, but also don’t want to weird-out my therapist by asking if it’s like against their professional code to share.

23M here. Anybody have any tips or book recommendations on not feeling haunted by your past and anxiety about the future and consistently stay in a “FLOW STATE”.I’m currently reading the Power of Now. I have a habit of burning bridges because I feel that I’m perpetually trying to fit in and act “cool”. I feel that I’ve always been somewhat unconfident but every year it seems to be more and more difficult to manage and taxing emotionally. I go to the gym 4 times a week, try to eat clean, socializ

Anyone try ketamine for treatment resistant depression? I’ve heard great things about it, but I am scared and it’s very expensive. I would love to hear about anyone’s experience.

How do i get help? There are hundreds of therapists, psychiatrists, etc. I only want in person. The act of finding help is overwhelming. My partner, friends and family say "you NEED help" but cant get there.

I’m really struggling mentally. The understanding of how insanely busy and overwhelming it will be because of this COVID-19 crap is giving me severe anxiety and panic attacks. I want to leave so badly but no one is hiring right now. I don’t know what to do. I feel trapped with no way out.

Has anyone changed jobs recently because your current job has no remote/work from home flexibility? My company has forced everyone in every department to come in 5x a week. A lot of people quit because of it, and I want to leave as well. It’s been taking a toll on my mental health. I have two interviews this week, including one today and they’re both fully remote. I feel like internally it’s not enough of a reason to leave, any tips or words of affirmation? I dread going in everyday.

I called someone “bud” today and now I feel like I’ve become the exact thing I set out to destroy.

I’m getting married in two weeks and going on my honeymoon the week after. I’m starting to worry so much about everything that could go wrong and derail everything, one of our parents getting sick, my fiancé or I getting sick so that we can’t enjoy this wonderful life moment. I’m so nervous that something will happen. Anyone else go through this pre-wedding anxiety or pre-vacation anxiety? Need some soothing words I can repeat to myself. Thanks!

So I adopted a cat during quarantine. Although I love him, having him seems to have worsened my anxiety. I would never give him away but the responsibility has been giving me severe anxiety. Even though I had thought long and hard about getting him. I think coupled with the fact I started a new job a month ago, I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed. I’m starting medication this week and hoping it will help me. But right now, I am so stressed out and anxious :/ any tips? Or words of encouragement?

I’m really abusive to myself. The only thing that makes me happy is putting myself down. Why am I like this?
