My job and how the people behave with me at work heavily affects me and I don’t know how not to be so affected by it all. I try not to be but my body automatically gets into this mode that I can’t see

Seem to shake off. This has been happening for years. I know this isn’t healthy for me but I don’t know what to do to stop getting so affected. Sometimes it may not even be a big deal but their tone/reaction really affects me

Like I wanted to take off, they said alright but it didn’t seem alright. Their tone sort of got to me..

I can relate and what helps are getting disconnect. Also not too focus on work, it’s okay, you’re probabaly just working too hard,

Have you seen a professional? I've had an undiagnosed mood disorder and PTSD for probably 20 years.... It's helpful for me to have words for it AND to learn about it so I know my triggers and can pull myself out of a situation before things get out of control. (And it's a practice and I'm farrrrr from perfect. But no one is so...)

Hey Bowl,
I work for a late stage(ipo) start up, earlier this year we were acquired & since then they got rid of our yearly bonuses and gave us an ESOP grant.
2 RIFs later we are almost bare bones. Since we are coming up on our usual yearly evaluations many of us assumed (with multiple conversation from our managers) that pay raises and promotions were due.
In a recent All hands we found out that this year there will be no pay raises nor promotions based off merit. Is it time to jump ship?

Might be the wrong bowl but finding it extremely difficult to focus on work post busy season. It’s been 2 weeks since we filed and I’m still taking lots of naps and breaks (I’m talking like 3-4 cumulative hrs worked during the day). Idk if I’m taking longer to recover from busy season bc I’m getting old or if I’m over public accounting (but then where do i go). Tried to schedule time with a therapist but everyone has a months-long waitlist so next step might be trying to find a life/career coach

My sister and I have recently both come to the realization that our parents guilt us into spending time with them or visiting them and the guilt causes us both to shut down.

We’ve both noticed this shift in our relationship with our parents after graduating from college and starting our own adult lives. Continued
