Hi everyone

For context I’m a senior marketer / growth specialist and I’ve worked in pretty much every role / sector over the years. Mainly b2b.

Throughout my career the longest stint I’ve done is 2.5 years, with all the other roles about a year or just over.

I recently left a new role as the leadership was insanely toxic (they now have multiple pending law suits from other ex employees, I just wanted to get TF out).

So now I’m at this start up, at the top of my job title game with a C in front of it. But the work is stuff I was doing 10 years ago. I hate it.

It’s boring, stressful, tactical and lacks any sort of strategy because the founder changes his mind every day. It’s unbearable for my ADHD.

I’m also working insane hours, which I wouldn’t mind too much if the money was good, but it’s half my previous salary and I’m barely getting by.

So, recruiters / Reddit fam - shall I get up and walk away even though this role is new and I only had a short stint in the one before? I also do have small equity in the business but a potential return on that is a long way off.

Any advice would be magic.

Happy Friday. 🎸

Second week on 10mg, worked up gradually from 2.5mg etc.

Due to approval delays from online pharmacies I had a couple of weeks between 7.5 and now the 10. But now I seem to be hungry again, and plateauing.

Has anyone else experienced this during breaks in doses and if so did it improve?

TIA🙏

Hey everyone,

I’m getting married later this year and I’m trying to lose more weight before the wedding.

Everyone I know says they got their dresses 6m+ before the wedding and I’m really worried I won’t find anything in time.

Are UK outlets supportive of those going through a weight loss journey? I don’t want to spend thousands on alterations constantly…but I’m not sure what other options I have?

Buying online seems super risky 🙁

Anyone been through something similar?

One day I’ll see him. 👀🥹

How protected am I with ADHD? I’ve recently started working for a start up that charge their priorities every two seconds.

This fucks with my ADHD. Am I protected? They aren’t doing anything to support me.

So I’ve been working for c12 years in marketing / consulting in pretty much every area. I’ve worked with big companies and small ones… and some in between.

I’ve recently started a new role in a very young company. It’s a senior role but they have me working on junior projects. I’ve flagged this already and they’ve mentioned they’ll bring in junior resource and it’ll calm down and then I can do more of the strategic stuff.

My problem is that the priorities are literally changing on a daily basis. So I don’t have a fucking clue what they actually want from me. I’ve flagged that I’m not happy and that I’m finding it difficult to navigate the constant changes.

Because it’ll be oh this is priority. Ok I’ll focus on that. Then it’ll be like why wasn’t this done? Well you told me to deposits. Oh yeah but I didn’t mean it.

… so how am I supposed to know what the fuck is going on.

I’m so devastated because I feel like I’ve taken a huge step back (like 5 years back) in the work I’m doing and I’m so ashamed.

The reason I haven’t resigned is because

1. I need to work for financial and mental stability
2. I did take some time out following a

redundancy

1. and my mental health was the

worst

1. it’s ever been. I was suicidal.

Am I cut out for this?

Do I just need to work for myself? I’d love to and I know it won’t be easy but surely it’ll be easier than being micromanaged and feeling like this?

Please help. I feel like there’s no way out.

To further note, I’m a jumper. I get bored quick so have move around jobs a lot (on my own accord) and always been lucky to pick up something better. But I’m worried that I won’t this time.

So is this imposter syndrome actually real? Can I just not do it?

Please don’t come with hate, I’m pretty fragile as it is.

TIA

Edit: spelling

Hey! I’m on MJ and looking to lose another 20kg before my wedding in October. I’m quite chill about getting a dress off the rack but is this realistic? I don’t want to spend loads on alterations hence why I’ve not even started looking.

One of my bridesmaids is freaking out…. Please share any thoughts or advice. Thank you. 🙌💃
