I’m having the same challenges at my new job as I have had at every other job. I keep hitting the same wall when it comes to social skills & group communication, it comes off as not being committed. I get feedback that I’m not proactive or vocal enough, and combined with the overstimulation of RTO, I’m really struggling. This & other behaviors are making me believe I have undiagnosed autism. I want to get a diagnosis but that takes time. how can I talk to my manager or hr now to keep my job?

8 weeks later and I am still testing positive for covid. But since I am symptom free for over 3 weeks I can return back to work. They say I am not contagious...i do have antibodies. But I am still nervous about spreading it.

Do you guys think there’s going to be more or less eligible bachelors once we get out of this pandemic? Or is everyone going to be in LTR 😂

Remember when this bowl primarily discussed work-life issues related to coronavirus?

The lack of appropriate PPE affected my health in other ways. I have a latex sensitivity and we ran out of Nitrile gloves. For awhile I had to take an antihistamine to keep from having full on hives.

Do y'all think the coronavirus is going to affect applications to business school? Talking specifically about apps from East Asia, given things like cancelled gmat exams for Feb-March (for now).

When you ask to work from home for the week because you could only get a doctor or dentist appointment that week

Anyone has any suggestion for Health Insurance Plans for someone in New York City?

I created this group after battling with the school regarding my son’s behaviors in kindergarten. He had ADHD but was not yet diagnosed with autism. I requested an IEP and they determined he is on the autism spectrum. He’s wicked smart, but has sensory issues. After studying autism more, I realized I share many of his characteristics. I also have ADHD, which is controlled with medication. Any others out there who have or think they may have autism?

Anyone experience exhaustion setting in at the end of second trimester? First trimester came with exhaustion like I have never experienced before and then most of second trimester has been more or less back to normal energy levels. Currently at 26 weeks and have been totally dragging for the past week or more. Does anyone have tips for getting through this?

What has everyone's experience with therapy been like? I feel like the therapy I go is nothing like it's portrayed in popular media.

I often just feel like I'm talking to a wall. I guess I was hoping that my therapist would engage me a bit more and try to offer potential solutions or activities that I could do to improve my RSD/anxiety/ADHD symptoms.

Has anyone ever taken a medical leave of absence? What factors did you need to consider? Were you treated differently when you came back? I might have to take one that could last up to 3 months

Folks who are into fitness, can you please suggest a good pair of walking and running shoes.

In my first trimester and I want to make sure I’m not being overly skeptical of my OBGYN. What are some red flags to look out for when searching for a good OBGYN?

Any Occupational therapist in here ! ?

Looking for treadmill recommendations. A little detail about me:

-I will use it probably 3 times a week for shorter distance walk/runs
-used to have a peloton tread+ but returned in the recall. Absolutely loved the slat treadmill on my knees/hips
-would ideally like a woodway but $$
-need it for the most basic functions & would watch tv or take peloton / Apple fitness classes on my iPad
-it will go in a garage
-not concerned about having huge incline

Thank you for your input!

Engagement Managers & Project Leaders: how on earth do you successfully lead on a tough client project?! Difficult enough for ADHDs to execute tasks let alone effectively manage people and synthesis their insights where you benefit the client and impress your colleagues!!

FDD/Deal Advisory vs. Finance Transformation / Finance Effectiveness

Both from a comp and exit opportunity perspective. I heard the big 4 have merged the pay bands that FDD and MC are similar in comp now - wanting to confirm.

I’m about to go on vacation, and every time someone senior (director, MD) in my team hears I’m taking time off, they say, “well-deserved!” Which seems like praise to me. Or is this something that’s normally said when someone takes time off ?

My family/friends ask me for store discounts all the time. It's really uncomfortable to say no, but I have to. Any tips on how to handle these conversations?

Everytime I got a date in this city they ask "what do you want to do" like I don't have time to make plans for us Everytime! You come up with something! Grr

F GSB and that email. The lack of self awareness is mind blowing. 😂

Fiji recommendations? Flights were reasonable from the US west coast, so partner and I will be there for 10 nights in December. Anyone have recommendations?

RIP TO MGM CALLS

Just promoted to senior at a big4. 2 years total exp. I got a recruiter from another big 4 telling me she wants me to come over for 140k!

Is this common? Is it bad to bounce?

I had a day today where my mind was not functioning well. Stupid mistakes, lots of back and forth, etc. I got kicked off and account once for having a day like this, and I am sad and frustrated. (1/2)

Just scheduled a meeting with HR about taking a leave of absence for mental health issues. If anyone here has successfully done this, I’d love any advice/tips

Job technically allows for WFH - take about one a month because of debillitating anxiety and depression flare ups. I actually work too - I just can’t be around people.

Sunday Scaries are already in full swing and the sun hasn't even set yet 😓

I've struggled with taking meds. I never understood the concept of "take your meds even if you feel good."

Today, I'm 28 days consistent taking my meds and I feel so. damn. great.

Keep going friends

Have any of you had to go through multiple different therapists and found one that you enjoy meeting with consistently? Hating myself rn but don’t want to talk to the one therapist i have met with 3x and not sure if the search is even that worth it ultimately. For those that couldn’t find a good match for a therapist - are there other methods of therapy you’ve tried or would recommend?

I’ve gotten to the final stage in interview process at 5 places now to be told no. First and second interviews at a bunch of other places too. Starting to really feel drained. So much work for nothing

My parents got incredibly angry and threatened to “end up in the hospital” and “disown” me after I told them I want to marry my partner, who comes from a different religion. My partner is amazing and I can’t imagine loving anyone this deeply, and feeling so safe with them. But I also love my parents and they’ve done so much for me. I don’t know how to cope with this.

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.

How do you stop putting yourself down? I don’t mean to do it and it just comes out of my mouth and then I feel SO awk after.

Is feeling suicidal a reason to leave work early/call out sick in the morning?

Will taking a mental health leave follow you around.

Has anyone defined themselves by their passion for this industry so much so, that if they thought about doing something else they’d have no idea who they are anymore?

Does that even make sense?

Seeking benefit clarification - US Health Indursnce says “Employee cover starts frm $17.65 PCM w/ $400 per month contribution by employer”. What does this mean? Worried about mental health costs/srvcs

My heads messed up. Feeling anxious about a situation with my ex (A) but ex (B) shows up after I’ve been distant with A ... I hooked up with B ... I hate that I feel neglected... (continue )

What made you feel life was “worth it” again?

I enjoy what I do but It’s ultimately not good for my anxiety. Making good work at a competitive agency seems to come at the cost of my mental health.

I was depressed last year, did therapy and on antidepressants and got completely better. But now I’m feeling depressed again, even though I’m still on antidepressants.
Feeling stuck- will I always be battling this?

Any success stories of L-Theanine supplements? After a particularly rough anxiety attack last night, I’ve decided to try some remedies (without resorting to Ativan).
