I was there once. It’s tough. The market is terrible right now, so a lot of really great designers aren’t finding any luck. Don’t give up. Keep looking at inspiration and adding to your portfolio, even if it’s making your own projects. Good luck and hope you find something soon.

They're playing a no win game, they more they treat us like we're disposable the more they're opening themselves up to hiring the worst candidates and folding the entire company. It's happened to two companies I've worked for. You're good enough.

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.

Yesterday I officially got diagnosed with ADHD and MDD. I knew that I was feeling depressed but somehow getting diagnosed made me feel worse. I feel like I am a big failure.

I’m so overwhelmed and lonely. Have no friends or family in the US. Don’t know what to do.

I’ve been depressed for years now and this past week I lost a dog I’ve had for 15 years; he was one of the only bright spots in my life and I’ve just found it so hard to focus or motivate myself on anything after this. I genuinely feel like I’m at rock bottom, Idk if I’m crazy to feel that way bc of a dog but I used to be able to control this and put up a front but now my depression and anxiety are starting to leak into my work conversations completely unintentionally, I wish this would stop :(
