Used to live in an English basement and had the same problem. For sleep, I got used to wearing ear plugs. Everything else I tried to drown out with the sound of the TV. Sorry I don’t have any great advice, but if it’s a possibility, consider moving bc I know it can get really hard

I want the title and the money owed which may be about $15000- 20000.

I over think & analyze. I’m very sensitive to people’s comments & reactions. Always been that way for as long as I can remember and I feel like I don’t have what it takes to succeed in corporates...

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
