My partner tells me to share my anxieties. I do share some, but I tell him I cannot possibly share all. There are many, and I don’t want to subject him to the inner turmoil I suffer daily.

Better to work it out with therapist

like

He doesn’t get it. How much to share with significant other?

Partner, do you share frustration about your wife with your wife?

Do you get anxious about sharing your anxieties?

Share things you think the parter might be able to influence (hey, at least they are showing they care about the real you), but agree that some things are best left for discussion with professionals. Just letting the partner know you have a therapist to work things through with might be what they want to hear because they care about you.

Start with therapy.

GCA Questions Help

Hi everyone!
I've had 2 rounds of interviews at Google (UK) for a non-tech role in Platforms & Ecosystems (L4/L5). Recruiter told me that I've been selected for the final rounds (GCA + Leadership Interview). From his feedback, one thing they wanted me to improve on was the GCA Questions. Would anyone have any tips on how to prepare for these? I've checked some of Jeff Sipe videos online but would appreciate any support! I find GCA quite stressful...
Thx
Thanks in advance!

Many people ask me if we will be getting into a war with Russia. The way things look I think not, even though we are the most powerful military force in the world, a war between two such large forces would only be the destruction of the world.
