I’ve always enjoyed being by myself, but truth be told, I am beginning to feel lonely. No amount of exercising, watching TV shows, apps distract me from this feeling anymore. I don’t know what to do with myself.

TV shows and apps are passive activities that increase feelings of meaninglessness. Do some more active stuff. Go learn how to rock climb.

What about meetups or connecting w old friends and family you’ve lost touch with, dance classes, long walks, take yourself on day trips something new, read more, less screen time, write down all the things you like doing alone and all the things you like about yourself, go to museums, wake up earlier, take an online live language class, look up Airbnb experiences, get a haircut, meditate, volunteer- the more we can focus on others and help them the less focused we are about ourselves

Hello, in my previous organisation I worked in development domain (Oracle IAM Tool and Java)and my post was software Engineer, i joined Wipro as project Engineer in April 2022 and was assigned non technical project as an analyst.

I fought my way hard to get released from the project. However my designation is changed as Analyst. Should I ask for change in designation as I know that analyst is non-technical profile? Would my designation impact my future role as well?

Someone senior at work is very dismissive of my questions and makes me feel nervous around them. I have just joined the team and so I have a lot of questions. They also try to blow things out of proportion or misrepresent facts and I get flustered in the moment and can’t keep track of what really happened. So I end up accepting blame for things that were not my responsibility. And the truth hits me a few hours later. How can I break this cycle?

I had the weirdest dream. Criminals were put in a gated community under observation and they had to successfully fake their own death to get out. They were given too many drugs and alcohol. But they end up killing each other or suiciding and no one is left. Once everyone kills themselves they bring in new inmates. It was insane.

My brain needs a rehab now. 🥺

Edit: how do I sell this idea to Netflix? Even though it’s bizarre.

I’m smart, get things done, self motivated. however I’ve hit career ceilings because I’m incapable of schmoozing, playing office politics, aligning myself with people who can boost my career. It’s just not in me. But I haven’t come to terms with it. Every time I go on LinkedIn, I see some idiot I used to work with has been promoted or jumped ship to some very senior role and it kills me inside because I know that I’m far more capable and yet will never make the same money.
