With you there OP! Sometimes you just need a listening ear and someone who understands and not necessarily a professional.

I actually help run a chat like you propose (though not specific to our industry, and in fact I think I'm a bit of an outsider there in this regard).

Main challenges are ensuring anonymity and keeping trolls at bay, not to mention that with a chat there can be a feeling of immediacy that isn't actually there

I’m here for you as needed

Im open to chat as well OP! Drop a burner if interested 😊

I’m open as well!

How to deal with people flirting with you at work.
I’m married, and one of my coworkers flirts with me. Nothing super overt, but definitely not professional. We’re good friends and work together constantly because we’re on the same client, so I don’t want to make it awkward. Do I just do nothing and let it go? It is mostly just odd I’m not super offended, but I’m also clearly uninterested!

Saw my therapist this past Friday and he gave me a useful trick to build better behavior patterns. Whenever you have work to do but would rather nap or something, tell yourself 3 negative effects of the nap and 3 positive effects of doing the work. You might still take the nap, but if you can get in the habit of thinking of it negatively, you'll take less naps when you need to be doing other things.

Doesn't matter what the activities are. Could be working out vs eating more, could be socializing IRL vs wasting time in FB (lol)
