I did very well the first half of my training, and right after felt extremely drained during break (5mins). After catching my breath and having some water, I prepped for another round to repeat the same shots we had practiced before break. Once the balls started shooting, I realised I can't focus anymore. My brain couldn't follow the ball, and I couldn't react fast enough to hit. I missed almost all of the balls in that round. I kept forcing myself to focus, but my brain felt as if it had frozen, and I felt like I was in a dream.

I take a good protein rich meal a couple hours before my training, and I always stay well hydrated.

I've started playing to help with my brain and to improve reaction time, as I lack these abilities in most areas of life. So this sudden occurrence worried me and really discouraged me.

I am just starting out. Also, does the arm soreness go away the more you play and your body adapts to it?

Thanks.

32F. Not confident at work at all. Mostly when it comes to human interactions and navigating through hierarchy and understanding the boundaries of what's expected of me vs what's overstepping when managing a case/client in a team-work setting, especially when I'm new to that workplace. It's like I can't really sense "vibes" or feel my way through. I just don't understand, period. Because when I do offer to try something, I'm mostly treated like I definitely am overstepping or said the wrong thing. So I prefer to stay silent and observe. But that makes everyone feel I'm not ready for the task at hand. I just feel that it's extremely difficult for me to find a middle-ground. Even if I'm being extremely careful to not push any boundaries.

How do people manage and overcome this???

32F. Highly accomplished academically. Struggling professionally because it's difficult to settle in any place when it comes to social skills.

Today is my 3rd day at a new job, and I got a remark telling me I don't look like I'm a professional because I'm too fidgety.

Then my boss got irritated with me, but I was just trying to discuss something for my own learning. I decided there's no use and I should just stay silent.

Then some other boss from a different office that's affiliated with ours, came for a visit and berated me.

I don't think I like this place. I am thinking of leaving.

I'm just extremely disheartened that people figure out quick that there's something wrong with me and then start to isolate me or make fun of me, in front of me, or behind my back.

Need to move to Lahore for my job. Real estate dude told me that an unfurnished 1bedroom apartment will go for 30k, and a furnished one for 50k?? Bills not included in either. That's 50% of my salary. WITHOUT the bills.

How do people manage?? How are we letting this happen?

And this area doesn't seem to be posh?

Idk.

I started an acute ischaemic stroke course on their website, and some time critical information is still dated from way way back. References are old as well.

If so, is it even worth doing those?

What's your experience with them?

Thanks.

Or is that considering too hostile a move?

I have had visit visa for my exam rejected twice, as visa officer was not convinced by ties to home country despite me submitting all relevant documents.

If it is still refused after this, would it be counted as an additional refusal?

Mother called me a fool because apparently my DAD doesn't like abc eggs. (He has his own xyz eggs box in his room anyway, and we haven't run out of those)

I told her it's for my own f.ckin self. She threw hands and made a whole entire issue out of this, cursing me and mocking me for the next several days, reminding me of what I have done. That there needs to be "an approval from her before any decisions are made in the house". (I'm 32F btw, living with my parents temporarily till my next internship).

A few days later, I just randomly walked into my dad's room. (He's sick and bed bound). He told me out of nowhere to not bring home the abc eggs. He said that he isn't fond of them and his stomach disagrees with them. As he's sick, I wanted to be as polite as possible and told him that they're for us, the kids, and separate from his.

He fell silent in a sudden realisation: that the world does not revolve around him. Other people in the house can also have preferences. We EXIST. We are as human as he is. We also have thoughts and feelings.

I just maintained eye contact with him to see how his face changes, to try to read his thoughts. To watch the realisation sink into him.

The eggs are just symbolic of a deeper issue:

Individuality was never acceptable in our house. My parents reminded me again and again that I need to fit in a mould, that I need to be an extension of their existence, a replica, to grow "under their shadow", instead of rebel against their opinions and beliefs.

For the first time in my life a man showed interest in me, and a couple of dates in he realised I'm too weird and closed off for him. :(

I swear I'm interesting. My siblings can vouch for me. 😭

32F.

Even my trainer can sense I'm awkward and anxious despite me HEAVILY pretending I'm confident. 😭 I don't understand what's wrong. People laugh at me when they talk to me. Some can't believe I've achieved so much in life because when they meet me I'm not exactly presentable because of my awkwardness and zero working brain cells as soon as I'm put in a social situation. I hate it.

I always feel like I'm late to the party.

Was bullied as a child by most people including my mother.

It feels as if everything that comes out of my mouth is GUARANTEED stupid.

For a feral cat that I want to keep. I want the basics: general checkup, deworming, tick treatment.

DHA is not accessible for me.

The website is not taking me to a payment page for membership, but requires "updating my profile". One of the mandatory sections of the profile is uploading an attestation of training by my current mentor. But the problem is that I'm not on a training post. I just want membership to access lectures for CME points.

Please let me know how to go about this. It has no option of "not a trainee" or such.

The club finder fails to load the webpage once I add the "online" filter.

Please send me any useful links to the online clubs!

Thank you.

Please link me to those. Thanks!

The customs office never notified me that my parcel has arrived. It's now at the DMO (as per tracking). Do I collect it from the DMO? Is that where I'll pay the custom fees? Or will they deliver to my house and I pay fees online? I have returned goods being delivered, do custom fees even apply?

I read google reviews of parcels being held indefinitely at the DMO. Can I pick it up myself?

I'm two months in. Still nothing.

I liked him so much that I would be almost mute in front of him because of nervousness. If I was to speak I would say the wrong things. My brain would literally go blank. I was also scared of texting him too much as I did not want to get attached, as he wasn't very sure about us. We were basically nothing.

It's been two weeks and I'm still devastated. Sometimes I feel my heart will stop. 2 weeks is a long time to grieve someone who you only knew for 6 weeks (even less).

I asked the lady at the an post counter this question, as my stuff is way over 20, but the lady at the counter kept getting annoyed and kept repeating the same sentence "you can't ship more than 20kg". So I asked her if a sender can absolutely not send anything over 20kg in FOREVER, she said YES YOU CANNOT.

I think she had trouble understanding my question. Can someone explain this to me? How far apart in time must two shipments be via an post?

Anyone planning a good getaway?

Anyone changing their skincare?

​

Anyone enrolling for a new hobby?

​

Anyone starting a new job?

Talk about it!!

Has anyone tried it? I took a face massage the other day and they used it (the only active they used), I didn't notice a difference but a couple days later I felt my skin looked more even toned?

Is it just my brain playing tricks on me? The spa was quite transparent about the promotion of the product, no sneaky marketing. But I'm a septic before trying anything new so please if someone has any reviews let me know. Online reviews of the product are so fake they seem to be paid reviews.
