I'm in the UK and the seasonal depression is really starting to hit. I've had serious depression in the past and felt 'well' for the first time in a long time this year. I took a day off work as 'flu' last week to recharge but it didn't work. I came off an (unrelated) PIP about a month ago and now I'm getting nothing done. I can't focus, I just want to lay in bed. Gym routine has gone out the window, I don't have my old network of people for times like this. I dont know what to do

I have a manager that does not seem to understand mental illnesses, disorders, etc. He thinks I am making excuses rather than trying to explain things (I have diagnosed ADHD, anxiety, and depression) and I’m trying to take ownership for issues but also help him understand what I am describing better as well. We are sitting down for a conversation later this week. Any advice on how to gently educate or help with his understanding of neurodivergence and other mental health considerations?

I’m in a rather peculiar situation. I have been in the HR field going on 4 years, I have over 11 years of management experience, I got my PHR last year and I recently graduated with my MBA with a concentration in HR this month. I am ready for a more challenging role. However, there doesn’t seem to be much available at my current company. However, I am going on 5 months pregnant with the expectation of being out in October. I feel like once I mentioned my pregnancy I was in a holding pattern.

I think I’m now old and have aged out of being fun. 27 (M) and not really sure what I’m “supposed” to be doing. I have a great job and got in the best shape of my life but am now starting to get the “old” jokes from friends and don’t currently have a girlfriend and just feel like I’m coasting. I just keep working on myself and improving every year with no end goal in mind.

Any recommendation of a good therapist in MA? Thanks!

Tips for returning to work post-sickness? Whole family has been juggling RSV, flu, and Covid for awhile and I’m trying to get back to work and feel a lot of anxiety about it. I lateraled a few months ago, so I’m still on a high learning curve and don’t know the best way to approach getting back into a rhythm. I WFH, fwiw, but haven’t clocked in for almost a week due to all the illness, hospital and urgent care visits, etc.

Where can I learn to move patients in bed and in their rooms without getting hurt?

For those who were diagnosed as an adult can you provide some insight into how you were able to obtain a diagnosis. I went to my primary care dr who referred me to another dr who specialized in mental health. He asked me about 5 questions before telling me I should see a neuropsychologist for an official assessment. The referral he gave me is super pricey and apparently isn’t covered by insurance. Is that normal?

The inability to come to terms with my mortality is crippling sometimes, I just get paralyzed with anxiety and fear. Anyone else experience? Is this normal?

About a year ago I took a job closer to home (7.5miles). My previous position is about 50miles away, but I worked there for 11.5 years. I am really thinking about leaving and going back to my previous position. I absolutely HATE my job now. It gives me panic attacks thinking about it. I’ve had to change my anxiety meds and increase dose. Yes my old job is an hour away, but I was so much happier and less BS I had to deal with there. Do y’all think it’s a good idea to take a job with more commute?

I don't know for sure that this is an ADHD thing but does anyone else get really irritated by small things or have trouble regulating their emotions? Especially when you take a day off from medication? I feel like the smallest thing can piss me off, especially in the AM. Am I just not a morning person or this a symptom?

Echo and nuclear leaders and techs: is your facility 1) requiring COVID testing before exercise stress testing, 2) wear N95 and PPE, or 3) both testing and PPE?
Our clinic is removing the cost barrier of testing but staff are worried about risks since echo rooms don’t have HEPA or negative pressure systems and patients are allowed to remove their masks while running and breathing heavy during image acquisition.
Have you had good / bad experience with lack of Covid testing before stresses?

So does the bloating ever end? 🤣

Also, a more serious question. Was anyone here eating at a caloric deficit before they got pregnant? If so, at what point did you stop? My first appt isn’t for another a few weeks and I’m curious. I know weight gain isn’t crucial until 2nd trimester, but I’m curious about weight loss now. I know some people tend to be sick for a lot of their 1st trimstester and end up losing weight anyway. 🤔

Hello fishes,

Happy to announce, I got first offer of 32LPA from MNC and my current is 9LPA. previously it was 3LPA in first job so in just 3 years i made it from 3 to 32LPA. so don't fall in "30%-40% as per industry standard trap" you decide your own worth, upgrade yourself, work hard study hard. and never depend on one income source, currently i have 4 income source. so take this as motivation, if you are struggling in your career. not here to show off.

Are you already fucked up on a Wednesday after work?

Sometimes in my leadership meetings I want to jump up and yell “PEOPLE OVER PROFITS. Anarchy! Anarchy!” and see what happens. They’ll think I’m joking but then I’ll jump on the table and start yelling “Too legit. Too legit 2 quit” while doing the running man and use my foot to close everyone’s lap top.

Ps. I really wanted to post this on LinkedIn.

For the people who took Steve Kerr’s impassioned speech (which I admire tremendously) and used it as a LinkedIn post to talk about “what leadership looks like in the workplace” - seriously consider rethinking your priorities in life. Not everything is an opportunity to spout off about what “leadership” is and turn it into professional advice (I realize not everyone did that or may not have seen it as much as I did in my feed, but had to vent about it).

Anyone have stories of reconnecting with your high school sweetheart (HSS) over a decade later? Was there still a spark? What ultimately happened?
I just got back from flying out of state to reconnect with mine. Now I’m even more confused on where we stand. By the way... I’m in the midst of a divorce and trying to find a job anywhere else but my home state. So I reached out to my HSS and applied for jobs near him. I stayed with him while I interviewed for jobs in nearby towns....

Is it racist for a black fan to be upset (comment on their photo) that their favorite black celebrity has chosen a white girlfriend? "Are there no black ladies available".
Two friends feel differently - one says the black fan is racist towards the white gf and the other says the fan is ignorant but not racist. What do you think? Please explain your stand. Thanks!

My friend recently had a big fight with her boyfriend and it's not solved yet - she's worried. I just got engaged on Friday. Should I tell her now or is it bad timing? I don't post anything on social media or told anyone except family yet, so she won't find out from others.

I started a new job (with a huge bump) and they just don't really have much work for me (like max an hour or two a day and nothing billable) it's been almost a month. Am I right to be worried?

You ever feel insecure when it comes to asking out women who are more successful than you?
I'm typically not good with women, but even worse when I meet a woman who is more successful than me. Like it makes me feel like I have even less of a shot and I shouldn't even bother. Is this common for anyone else?

I'm with a 26 yr old woman who decides what she does (where she travels) based on how her dad feels about it. He's an anxious person who worries about her safety. We live in different states. I'm ready to settle down and make a future. Shes worried about her dad's feelings (for the record, I value family, too). Thoughts?
