I have been on-and-off stimulants for the last decade but recently quit cold turkey because I got sick and tired of dealing with all of the availability issues. I also hate being so dependent/reliant on psychiatrists who in my experience don't really give a shit about you or your wellbeing. I hated needing to ask for refills every 30 days, hoping that they would respond in a timely manner and that the stars would align so there was no interruption.

That being said, my life has almost come grinding to a halt. It has been 3 months and I am still struggling to get back to a decent baseline. I am beginning to wonder if it is possible to live life without them, which is an additional strain on my emotions.

i am an IT Support Intern at a manufacturing company. My company makes precision parts for a variety of customers. my company uses a program called Epicor, and on Monday we are scheduled to update to the newest version. The problem here is that my boss has left this in my very... "capable"... hands and is jetting off for the week.

I have not been prepped, I have not even recieved a login for Epicor, and I am panicking.

Does anybody in the void have any experience running through a large feature update such as this for a company with around 150 workstations with this software loaded onto it?

I assume my boss has left the process to be automated, but I am concerned that I will be completely unable to troubleshoot in the event of a catastrophe. maybe i am overthinking. maybe i am anxious for no reason. i guess i just need someone to tell me to calm down haha.

thanks everyone. have a good weekend!

But recently, it has been overwhelming for me to focus, and since last months, it seems I have no at all. Everything seems fking hard. Even the little ones. Also, I have rejection sensitive dysphoria and some off-handed comment replays in my brain like a blockbuster movie in theatre.

I am thinking about going to psych next week and get a proper evaluation and if possible meds.
