I told everyone about this startup I've been working on, and Its been deteriorating my mental health more and more. Im running out of $$.

I dont want to let everyone down. but I feel too tired to work, but im too tired to embarrass myself and quit. I dont want to quit on my mission.

I feel so alone. I isolated myself from friends and family. I talked to thousands of my users. I dont know what to do.

Would like some advice. \nKind of feeling doomful/dreadful

I am a soon-to-be dad. I am looking forward to it, and we have prepared as best we can.

However, one thought is nagging me.

I have finished my bachelors degree in computer science, and I am onset to start my master degree in the fall.

However, I have very little job experience. I have decent grades, enjoy studying and have held a TA position. But I have never worked in a CS-related role professionally and do not consider myself a very good "developer".

I am afraid that I will not be able to work as good (or long) as my peers on school, or on side projects and internships; and that, due to my lack of experience, will have future employers turn me down.

I don't know; maybe I am a bit too pessimistic.\nI am based in Scandinavia for reference.

Anyone with experience having a child, before your career took off? Or similarly, while in school?

Any advice or words upon the matter is appreciated.

Best wishes, Lasse.","time":1784370442,"title":"Ask HN: Having a child before career has taken off","type":"story"}],[44258019,{"by":"jfromtheblock","descendants":1,"id":44258019,"kids":[44258069,44258020],"score":1,"time":1749737382,"title":"AI logistics startup with $900k in revenue looking for biz dev / sales pro","type":"story","url":"https://airtable.com/appFlymREuqKWukEv/pagSaLLA6OTUJFFCl/form"}]]
