Never learned, ca you self teach it?
I believe so. I find out more soon. I do have a therapist that I want to continue to work with. Which is good.
That's a very valid Statement, that I will need to reread in the morning. It's a lot to take in.
I would not even know where to start.
The trial and error of medicine for this stuff is awful.
Miserable. Honestly, it reminds me of what I did and it feels like I made little progress.
I'm going to try doing that. I got a gaming computer. I always had one over the years until a year ago, then I stopped. Computer broke. Didn't bother to fix it.
Surah? What is the quote from? I also never said I didn't believe there was a god/gods. I'm an analyst. I look at information all day and determine that I am very finite and lack a purpose. And that stings.
Yeah, I need to make that a priority. Honestly I kept forgetting to take them until tonight. So this is partly my fault. The meds tend to make me really tired. I should probably explore different options for medicine. I'm on medication 7 or so of 8.
Well aware. I start next week then I find out about healthcare benefits.
I can't ride a bike, but I do enjoy hiking. The idle thoughts get to be a bit much when I'm going through the stressful times.
That was incredibly kind. I don't even know where to start with this stuff.
I'm genuinely not sure how to do that. I'm not a very exciting and fun person. I enjoy things like watching the rain and gardening. I'm thinking of going out and getting a computer for gaming.
I look at a calendar that's filled and get stressed. I get it though. I need to take time for myself and set it aside.
Hello, I'm laid off and I can't afford therapy. If it's okay I'd like to vent.
Hi. I'm new here. I am a workaholic. When I started to notice my mental decline I was working in very important role at one of the largest companies in the world. All I could see was the end prize, financial freedom. A few years in I knew I was going through health issues because sleeping was rough, I always felt on edge. All I wanted to do was make sure my wife would be set up if I died.
One day I could not take it anymore. I went to a different company. Took less than a week and I had the big one. A complete breakdown. I didn't know what it was until a friend told me it may be panic attacks.
I got let go in about a year. I've been bouncing around jobs since. I get back up, I apply myself, I'm determined; or more like super productive due to stress.
Then I heard about a friend's spouse who died of cancer. They were younger than myself. It just breaks me with a lot of what-if questions. If this happened to me, I didn't enjoy life. I just worked. I got little progress to show for it except money in what feels like a doomed economy. I worked to make sure my wife can live an enjoyable life when I am gone. I don't have a clue how to have fun.
I am now stuck with a lot of what-if questions that don't have answers. I start my new job in about a week. It's a good company, pays well, allegedly they care a lot about their employees. I just wish life would slow down enough to process things; deal with the anxiety issues. Now that I can breathe a bit again and about to regain my footing I feel more stressed.
Tl;dr I don't know how not to have my life revolve around work.
Edit: feel free to offer advice. I'm kind of just in my own anxiety right now.
You won't convince people if you act like a jerk. You will convince people if you are a good cook.
Former vegan, long term vegetarian; I don't even like telling people I am a vegetarian because of the agresive ones.
If you want a meat alternative try black bean burgers or falafel. Both are solid options.
I worked in horticulture for years. Floral design, green house stuff like that. I spent my pay on computer stuff because I enjoyed it.
As an adult,.I do the opposite. I work on computers then I spend my time hiking, foraging, gardening. I'm so fed up with the constant need snd expectations that the you are glued to a cell phone. I hate that hustle. I want to take life at my own paste.
what's some stuff that costs around 1$ that you would recommend?
Low risk products that people swear by.

LF Durable Metal Pen, steel construction
Howdy, I have a Zebra F701, and I love it. But there are plastic internals. I love the affordability, scratch resistance, and durability of steel for pens. I've used pens as door stops in an emergency before. I'd like a full steel pen.
What are some all steel pens to look out for?
Oy, what are you looking forward to foraging?
Pretty psyched for garlic mustard and dandelion season here soon.
Paw-paw season is my favorite though because you need to plan around climbing trees and jumping around in rivers.
Got any great experiences you want to share?
what are some silly things that you can put on a resume than most people don't realize?
Examples:
I help train fortune 500 tech companies' AI algorithms.
I am Time Magazine's Person of the year 2006.
(Request) Looking for a CCW backpack without a lot of Velcro
-
Has ro be a backpack, no sling bags.
-
I hate Velcro. Picks up hair, wears out. I want to buy this for life.
-
No leather. Same as Velcro this bag will likely be abused and get wet a lot.
I could use some feedback on anxiety issues.
2 years ago I had had a break down. I started having panic attacks and I would grind my teeth a bit. Eventually I shattered a tooth. Two years later and a root canal that tooth is causing issues due to an infection. I have a check up on it in a month. It's not really painful, but it's a grim reminder of all the issues I had.
I am a significant amount better than before. Meds and therapy helped a lot. But this tooth reminds me of a time where I was a wreck. It's not a fun feeling. And I don't know what happens next. I never got a tooth pulled for example, I don't know what to expect.
Has anyone beaten anxiety issues? Will I be like this forever?
Edit: Went to my dentist, they looked at it, they are sending me to a specialist tomorrow. Wish me luck.
Edit 2: got scheduled for surgery today, they think they can save the tooth.
Edit 3: Surgery was not that bad.
