Have you tried counseling through AEP (employee assistance program)? Its free and many counselors can talk wirh you via phone.

Couldn’t agree more. EAP was hugely beneficial for me. And for myself I am a very religious person and find value in seeking help from BOTH religious mentors and seeing a therapist through EAP. I say that for anyone who might feel like they shouldn’t need a therapist if they have religion... they aren’t replacements for one another and can be very complimentary for your mental health! :)

Seeking feedback on GAP insurance. I had a family member who purchased a car in June or July. They were in an accident last week and it sounds like the car will be declared a total loss. Never dealt with this before, so wanted to ask if anyone has ever had an instance where the insurance didn't cover the outstanding balance of the loan and the insured then owed money? Car was $35k, $7k down, finance $28k. Gap insurance is through lender, not auto insurer.

If anyone else works in the same type of environment, do you infer anything about colleagues who choose not to list their gender pronouns? (such as they are homo/trans phobic?)
