I work at bedside as a RT but unsure what to transition to. I've thought about IT but my mental health has deteriorated during the pandemic.

So it finally happened. I tested positive for Covid (triple vaccinated). I am definitely sick coupled with more mental and emotionally, I feel such guilt despite being so damn careful.

Always felt like my peloton bike wasn’t calibrated well but after moving homes the issue is much worse. Now using my parents bike while traveling here for the month and very easily PRing way above previous PRs, better hitting target ranges, and also feeling like I’m getting an overall better workout. Any recommendations? Worth trying to recalibrate?

It's Wednesday and I'm hungover. 0/10 not recommended

Well, I believe that being an adult with ADHD and being a Tax Lawyer is not the best combination - currently, I feel exhausted

I need some help. I need to lose 40 lbs. 5’2, 170 lbs. i started working out more but then stopped because I was miserable doing it. Decided to focus on diet and I just end up binge eating. WFH also makes it harder to be active esp when working out (the cardio at least) makes me so miserable. I do walks sometimes but that obviously doesn’t burn enough to mean much. At this point idk what to do. Keto helped in the past but now I can’t even find the drive to do that! What do I do?

Hi! New Yogi here. I love yoga AFTER I’ve done yoga... if that makes sense. During yoga, I’m fidgety and restless and I can’t seem to concentrate. But after? Phew! I love the mushy, warm, puddle feeling. Can anyone offer some advice to ease my way into doing yoga consistently?

For background I’m normally a heavy lifter type of gal but with covid I’m trying to find a wider range of activity. All comments/thoughts welcome!

Has anyone used the Done. ADHD service? I’ve been thinking about using it since my psychiatrist is never available and ADHD clinics around me seem so expensive.

I recently tried quitting everything last Sunday, with drew all last week and then relapsed Friday, Saturday and Sunday worst withdrawals I ever had (cold sweats, shaking, wasn’t sure I would survive). I’m through the worst of it now but any advice? Thought about rehab but can’t stop work. This is probably my 9th time trying to go sober during the pandemic. I live alone so the isolation with the pandemic has extremely escalated my usage to the point of about a bottle of a day on weekdays

Has anyone needed to be on blood thinners during their treatment? Found out I have Factor V Leiden from the genetic testing/bloodwork I did and the clinic referred me to a hematologist. He said I would need to use heparin throughout the process and for a month after egg retrieval while the estrogen levels come down. Just wondering how common that is & any thoughts/advice appreciated! (Also wondering if the heparin costs would be covered by insurance if the rest is out of pocket)

Thinking about relocating in a year or two, considering renting out our 55 year old townhouse vs selling. I have some concerns that the bones are pretty mediocre (old plumbing has leaked for me, electrical is aluminum). How would you decide and if renting, how do you budget differently for repairs?

Further context: I already rent out a tiny condo I have by using a property manager, and if I kept this townhouse I'd turn management over to them as well.

I adore animals, people not so much... if you saw how people mistreat their pets you would probably say the same
