Recently diagnosed with High functioning ADHD and currently weighing my treatment options. More in comments...

I'm an SDR and have found it challenging to find alignment with my AE's. We don't really strategize on accounts - something I've been working hard to improve. I'm curious to know what has helped for other SDR's and AE's. I'm always also open to getting feedback even when it's uncomfortable. I just need the support.

Hi guys, just want to drop some gems about choosing a therapist. I’ve had seven. Please make sure you focus on what it is you want to gain from therapy, how engaging you want your therapist to be, their experience in treating someone with your background. I personally like empathy and honesty. In the past I had a therapist who I felt was reading from CBT/DSM text book. I’ve also had one who laughed at me and one who was very cold. Continue ⬇️

Anyone have experienced with ketamine for depression / anxiety?

Took a lot from me mentally to leave consulting because I had a great support system there but I didn’t want to travel anymore because of a growing family. I joined a series-C startup and it’s been a dumpster fire of politics and incompetence and I totally regret joining. I saw some red flags but things only got terrible due to the economic situation with tech/startups. Manager is horrible and we’ve had constant reorgs. With a new kid on the way, the uncertainty is killing me. Any advice?

Guy I’m into will open messages I sent him and then like it hours later… is my anxiety getting the best of me here?

I want to be dramatic, I’m lonely, and I’m melancholically not doing anything because the impending sense of doom prohibits my ability to work productively so I languish in learned helplessness as I sit in a rut trying to get myself to do things

I think I’m depressed. It feels like this job just slowly chips away at my self esteem. No time to do anything else, I already go to the gym (at 6am mind you). The excessive work has (cont)

I grew up in a decent household but my family was just barely making it. While I’m grateful that I had what I needed I didn’t have access to resources that could have helped me today and for that reason I feel a bit behind. Now that I am at least in the position to live a life I had hoped for, I feel like my depression is holding me back for some reason and I’m not able to feel excited for what’s ahead. Does this make any sense? Can anyone relate?

I finally sought help today for my depression and anxiety. I can’t believe I waited this long.
