Welcome, everyone!
This bowl aims for all mental health professionals to vent about anything they want. As a therapist, I understand some of the feelings, confusion, or other stuff happening around the field. So why not create a place where we can all come together.

Hi everyone. I was given a verbal offer after some negotiation and I’m comfortable with the salary. There was no real discussion about anything other than salary. When the written offer arrives, have you had any success negotiating PTO, health insurance, retirement ect.? Thanks!

In an auto accident trial, can you inform the jury in any way that the at-fault driver had insurance? I have a hard time believing a jury would award 7-figure damages if they thought the little old lady defendant had to personally pay. I’m just starting to do PI on the side by myself at my firm, so this is probably a very dumb and obvious question.

Need advice for a paper in MBA program. What’s the absolute *WORST* financial product you can think of? Insurance, annuities, mutual funds, savings accounts... (and can’t be payday loans)

When ppl talk abt mental health in adv, we neglect the topic of cognitive dissonance. Most of us work on clients that are terrible in some way - sweatshops, bad for enviro, unhealthy. How do u cope?

Morning all. I am looking for a favour/solid advice. I've been in the interview process for a dream role over the past month or so and just found out I didn't get the job after final round 🙃.

Unfortunately this isn't the first time this has happened during the past year searching. Looking for a SC level role within healthcare/public sector consulting firm. I know the job scene is a bit miserable currently but if anyone in the bowl is aware of a role I would love to have a chat.

Thanks all

It’s looking like my job is gonna start asking us to return to the office. We have an open office plan and before we wfh FT I would save all my work for my telework days bc I can’t get shit done in the office. I’m having major anxiety about them making this decision. I know I’m not alone that people don’t want to return to the office. My ADHD and the open office just makes working from the office a nightmare and I’m feeling really nervous and kind of resentful.

Does this job get any better? Been working non stop since I’ve started, having trouble sleeping the limited hours I have outside of work, and seeing my mental health get affected

I'm planning a session on mental health in the workplace, including tips for how we can do better at creating a mentally healthy workplace as individuals, as managers, and as an office - any tips / dos and donts / favorite compelling mental health stats I should include?

Hi fishes,

I found different user login related bugs in a website that hamper the user experience.

What is the correct procedure to report those bugs?

Also, can there be any potential scope to get bug bounty for the same?

How to approach this?

Thanks a lot.

I started my journey as a volunteer for crisis text line. I fell in love with the field instantly. Currently working as a mental health tech and can not freaking wait to leave that role. It freaking sucks not being able to guide patients like my background and formal training have taught me. It’s frustrating because I constantly have to step back and ask myself “am I in my own lane”?

I graduated last year with my MSW and have a hard time mentally preparing myself for the exam and focusing on studying. Any tips?
