Don't wanna crush anybody's hopes but as per the market predictions, the worst is yet to come.

Not my opinion, read a couple of articles mentioning that the interest rates in the US are still quite high and the FED will not start printing more money anytime soon.

Health issues in mid 20's

Go to the gym 4,5 times a week. Follow a regime. Change your diet. Add a lot of protein and complex carbs. Eliminate oily junk food for 3-4 months. You will start seeing the difference.

Less than 50 days left to end 2023, What did you achieve this year?

1. Still alive! 
 2. Didn't get laid off! 
  
 Win Win. Little things matter people!

I did that with my previous manager. He was extremely toxic for me. I ended up complaining about him multiple times and since nothing happened, I quit. The relationship soured to the point that we didn't even look at each other, let alone greeting the other. I know I might be an extreme case but has anything remotely similar happened to any of you?

Has any of you damaged your relationship with your manager beyond repair?

I’m adding the link to those who are not aware about this. 

I am genuinely grateful for all the well wishes I received via Grapevine. I am sorry I couldn’t respond, I had certain extenuating circumstances that made it difficult to respond.

I effectively went on the ventilator to support breathing as I soon contracted COVID afterwards. It has taken me 2 months to recover and I got discharged from the hospital only last week.

I was battling my inner demons on the hospital bed as I got laid off by my employer during my treatment for absence. 

Thankfully, my medical insurance covered all of my expenses. Overall, they billed my insurance provider 68L and frankly if I didn’t have insurance, I would’ve died.

I had a very traumatic childhood, I lost my elder sister when I was 6 in an accidental fire at my home. I escaped but she was asleep and I couldn’t save her.

Deep down, I got badly disturbed through all this. I started smoking when I was 14. I used to smoke every other day because my crippling anxiety and depression was unbearable.

I have been a top performer throughout my life. School topper and CA Ranker (sub-50). It is not as if I was some dumb individual that could not weigh the risks. I was just in too much pain.

I reached out for help from my parents and they did try to heal me. I consulted the top child psychologists in Chandigarh at that time, it helped but my wounds were too deep.

I am hopeful that I will recover from my addiction and mental state of being. My parents have always told me that when you are at the bottom the only way is up. So we rise yet again.

Thank you everyone for your support. I really appreciate it.

I started smoking vapes back in 2019 when a friend of mine introduced me to Juul. I was instantly hooked and loved the flavours. I got so hooked that I used to smoke an average of ~5k puff vape every three days. The nicotine and juicy flavours was what made it too addictive and I always felt that it was much healthier than a cigarette. 

Last week, I fainted while climbing stairs and I felt like I couldn't breathe. I was thereafter rushed to the hospital by my roommates. 

Scans showed several lesions inside my lungs from the harmful chemicals inside. Initial diagnosis was popcorn lungs, and prognosis does not look promising. With no shot at full recovery, the treatment is going to be symptomatic only. 

Fucked my life and threw away the best years of my life. My parents are extremely disappointed in me and I feel like a dead man already. 

Don't SMOKE and Don't VAPE.

I might end up dying from Vaping. Here's my story - Grapevine

(Part 2) I am the guy who almost died vaping. Here's what happened next.

Welcome to Product Managers's Private Community

I’ve about 7yoe. 3y in product. And I already feel that I enjoy the role less now. 

I’m tired of writing tickets whole day, doing things that don’t have great outcomes, coordinating and doing program management work. 

How do folks who’ve spent like 10/15 years in the role manage to balance this? What do you do to recover and recuperate. 

Ps: only answer if you’re experienced. Tia

Drop the one small thing that made you feel good today.

Often we look for “happiness” while we rush through life like there will be time later to pause and enjoy. Little moments should be cherished and enjoyed - makes the day to day more meaningful. 

Mine: 

1. 5 small red roses and 3 white roses in the balcony. Waking up to that felt good and makes me smile today.

2. 5 minutes in the balcony and the morning sun. therapeutic!

What made you smile today?

An important meeting cancelled. Woke up to the cancelled invitation on my email.

As asked in the title. During office timings, I am really anxious to the point that I am unable to relax during lunch breaks as I am afraid I will get a message or a call that I might have to jump into. I know it sounds stupid, but I spend nearly 10 hours everyday with crippling anxiety. It has become so bad, I am considering quitting to work on myself just to get rid of this anxiety. However the Current market scenario doesn't allow me to me do this. I have asked my friends and family about this, but everyone says 'don't quit', 'work hard' Etc. I am sick of hearing this.

How do you deal with the crippling anxiety for WFH?

Project Manager

I need to know if people here received comments like- you look weak, thin and dry. No glow on face. You were better before this.

This is after I adopted a healthy lifestyle since April 2023.

My calorie intake is just notch higher than my maintenance calorie count.
Sugar intake is extremely low. High water intake and no stress.

What could be the reason?

Welcome to Personal Finance's Private Community

Both indexes began diverging sometime close to when Fed started to aggressively hike rates. It appears that the post-COVID rally was more favourable to the S&P but NIFTY is currently outperforming on absolute returns.

My idea is fundamentally simple. Financial prudence during the raging recovery paid off for us, the economy appears resilient and poised to do well in the near to mid-term. It also reflects that markets are pricing recessionary risk very differently to both markets.

Any ideas by others?

[Thread] Why is the Indian Public Market outperforming the US Public Market?

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

Seems like a lot more activity at early stage. Also heard via a friend at Zomato that they gave good increments. Others may follow? 

Anybody else feeling things turning towards positive? Or is this just scattered early signs?

Market seems to be recovering. Hearing of more investments this year.

Investment Associate

Just wanted to do a quick dip-stick from the people in this good community. In my network of friends' (companies), I'm starting to sense renewed optimism around business growth, funding environment and therefore jobs. I also feel there is more pessimism in larger companies versus smaller upstarts

Are you guys seeing/ sensing the same as well?

Seems the market is bouncing back

Hi guys so finally went to psychiatrist he prescribed me some medications. I am just worried about its side effects.

Went to psychiatrist. Just nervous about side effects if any?

Welcome to Confessions's Private Community

Does anyone have some Idea on how to get hold of the drinking addiction? I drink 3-4 times a week (Alternative days). I have reduced the quantity of alcohol from 360ml couple of years back to 180ml now per sitting. But I am unable to reduce the frequency. I am a person with a weaker will power. Also, recently I have been diagnosed with Diabetes.

What is that one habit that changed your life?

Going to the gym. Very underrated life lack, I’m less depressed that I was a couple of years back, reversed at least 3 years of age and helped me deal with chronic back pain by strengthening the lower back muscle. Only wish I knew this a decade back.
